The [[Twenty First Founding]] (also known as the '''''Cursed Founding''''') is notable in that its focus was in perfecting and removing deficiencies in flawed gene-seed. Unfortunately many of the Chapters created at this time have developed genetic idiosyncrasies, mutations that strain the tolerance of the [[Inquisition]] and threaten these Chapters' survival.{{Fn|2}}
The [[Ultima Founding]] in [[M42]] saw tens of thousands of new [[Primaris Space MariensMarines]] produced, all with the same gene-seed of the Primarch's. However the three additional implants given to Primaris Marines has made them more genetically stable, enabling gene-seed production at rates not seen since the time of the Emperor.{{Fn|9}}
