Changes

Sachiel was born into one of the few tribal families on [[Baal]] which had permanent landholdings.{{Cite ThisFn|3a}} After his induction into the [[Blood Angels]], Sachiel eventually joined the [[Sanguinary Priest]]s and was later one of the leading members of the ''[[Bellus]]'' Expedition, to recover the [[Spear of Telesto]] from [[Ork]]-held space.{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|2a}}

During the preparation of the army, Sachiel burst in on [[Inquisitor]] [[Ramius Stele]], Arkio's other close advisor, and was horrified to see the Inquisitor consorting with the forces of [[Chaos]]. {{Fn|3b}} However, Stele [[psychically]] blocked these memories, which did not surface again until the confrontation on [[Sabien]], between Arkio's nascent cult and the loyalist force commanded by [[Chief Librarian]] [[Mephiston]]. Realizing that he had been duped and manipulated by Stele, Sachiel saw the error of his own conceit, shortly before Stele drove a psychic spike into Sachiel's head, killing him.{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|3c}}

Sachiel's main weaknesses were his vanity and ambition. Coming from the closest thing the feral natives of [[Baal]] had to a landed aristocracy, he considered himself above his fellow Baalites, and later his fellow Blood Angels. He took his acceptance into the [[Chapter]] and his ascension up the ranks of the Sanguinary Priests for granted, and was rankled not to hold the [[Sanguinary High Priest|highest rank]] of all.{{Cite ThisFn|2a}} On several occasions, he would look at the replica of the [[Red Grail]] issued to him as a Sanguinary Priest, and dream of one day replacing [[Corbulo]] and possessing the original as his own.{{Cite This3a}}

Arkio's brother [[Rafen]] reflected that he had never liked Sachiel, even before his long absence on the ''Bellus'' expedition, because of the Priest's ingrained hauteur.{{Cite ThisFn|2a}}

Inquisitor Stele, who was a master at manipulating others, once reflected that Sachiel was one of his easiest "subjects," simply because the Priest's ambition and blind piety made him easy to sway.{{Cite ThisFn|3a}} Sachiel, at least, realized this about himself in the moments before his death.{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|3c}}
