→Twenty First Founding
===Twenty First Founding===
The '''Twenty First Founding''' was the largest [[Founding]] of [[Space Marine]] [[Chapter]]s since the [[Second Founding]]. It took place shortly before the [[Age of Apostasy]], in 991.[[M36M35]].{{Fn|11d18c}} The focus of the Twenty First Founding was perfecting and removing deficiencies in flawed [[gene-seed]].{{Fn|2f}} The Twenty First Founding is also known as the '''Cursed Founding''', because of the appalling bad luck that seems to dog the Chapters created. Worse still, some Chapters have developed genetic idiosyncrasies, mutations that strain the tolerance of the [[Inquisition]] and threaten the Chapter's survival.{{Fn|11d}}
