History
==History==
Luis{{Fn|8}} Dante was born in 447.[[M40]]{{Fn|6a}} on [[Baal Secundus]] ([[Baal]]'s second moon) and his growth was stunted by malnutrition and radiation. When he took part in his clans trials at the Place of Challenge he showed no special promise, but nonetheless survived. Afterwards he was inducted into the [[Blood Angels]] Chapter as an [[Aspirant]] under [[Sanguinary Priest]] [[Araezon]]. He first drew notice when during his transformation after drinking the [[gene-seed]] synthesized blood of [[Sanguinius]], he went into a year long coma and cried out the names of fallen primarchs, dark gods, and long-banished [[Daemon]]s. Upon emerging Dante was trained to become a battle-brother, then - Brother-Sergeant.{{Fn|5}} He reached the rank of [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] in '''753.M40'''{{Fn|6b}} Later he took part in the [[Kallius Insurrection]] of [[M40]], where every Captain of the Blood Angels but Dante himself was slain, and it was decided by the gathered [[Chaplain]]s and [[Sanguinary Priest]]s that he would become the new [[Chapter Master]].{{Fn|5}}
His very presence inspires troops to acts of valour that are extraordinary even for Space Marines. Because of this reputation, when it came to choosing a leader for the [[Armageddon]] intervention, the Masters of the other two Chapters taking part (the [[Salamanders]] and the [[Ultramarines]]) unanimously asked for him to be placed in charge.{{Fn|1}} Dante is a legend not just amongst the Blood Angels but also amongst the common citizenry of the Imperium, to whom he is a saviour, a golden-armoured hero who descends to save them in their darkest hour.{{Fn|3}}
