{{QuoteBox|quote = '''''"I stand against the Emperor. Do you understand, [[Kauragar]]? I am free now. Free. Can you not understand that? Why have you all spent these last decades telling me I should feel honoured to live as a slave, when I was so close to dying free?"'''''{{Fn|29}}|}}'''Angron''' (also known as '''the Red Angel'''{{Fn|5}} and originally as Angronius of Nuceria, '''Lord of the Red Sand'''{{fnFn|19}}) is the [[Primarch]] of the [[World Eaters]]. He was raised on the brutal world of [[Nuceria]], fighting as a gladiator slave and having his aggression enhanced by surgical implants known as the [[Butcher's Nails]]. The only Primarch taken into service of the [[Emperor]] against his will, he fell to [[Chaos]] during the [[Horus Heresy]], afterwards becoming a [[Daemon Prince]] of [[Khorne]]. Savage and in a state of constant rage, he was nonetheless renowned for his battle-prowess and alongside [[Leman Russ]] and [[Vulkan]] was considered one of the most physically powerful Primarchs. The Chaos emissary to Lorgar called him the ''Fighter''.{{Fn|18}}
