==History==
In 888.[[M37]], the [[Emperor's Tarot]] indicated a great [[Chaos]] threat from the worlds of the [[Eye of Terror]] named [[Goreworlds]]. The 8th Company of the [[Emperor's Wolves]] was dispatched to deal with the threat, encountering a twisted hermit known as the [[Red Prophet]]. Slaying the heretical preacher, all those touched by his blood instantly became devoted to [[Khorne]]. Eventually the entire Company was exposed and they renamed themselves the '''Blood Disciples'''.{{Fn|2}}
Decades later, they returned to realspace dedicated to the powers of [[Chaos]]{{Fn|1}} and have launched raids into [[Segmentum Obscurus]] ever since{{Fn|3}}. Because of the Warband's history as a designated assault company, the Blood Disciples are noted for having a large number of [[Chaos Raptor]]s.{{Fn|1}}
