Changes

They were originally members of the [[Word Bearers]] [[Space Marine Legion|Legion]], during the [[Horus Heresy]] and served under [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] [[Darokh'Var]]. However , as their Legion traveled travelled to [[Battle for Terra|invade]] [[Terra]], Darokh'Var's warship, the ''[[Firebrand (Warship)|Firebrand]]'', became trapped in the [[Warp]] for several days. When the Firebrand finally re-emerged, however, Darokh'Var and his forces realized that over a thousand years had passed. They soon discovered that the [[Imperium]] had defeated the [[Traitor Legion]]s, who had been forced to flee into the [[Eye of Terror]]. {{Fn|1}} The Captain was fanatically loyal to his [[Primarch]] [[Lorgar]], though, and led his forces to attack Imperial worlds, before fleeing back into the Warp. Once again, however, the ''Firebrand '' became trapped in the Warp and when it re-emerged yet another thousand years had passed. This cycle would continue until the [[13th Black Crusade]], when the ''Firebrand's '' curse was finally lifted and Darokh'Var's forces could finally join the [[Long War]]. The zealous Darokh'Var was now determined to earn the [[Chaos Gods]]' favor favour and renamed his forces as '''The Blessed'''. Seeking to give truth to their epitaph, the [[Chaos Lord]] has charged the [[Chaos Warband|Warband]] with undermining the [[Imperial Creed|Imperial faith ]] in whatever ways they could. The Blessed now fight to topple the Imperium's idols, sacrifice its faithful and burn their shrines to the ground.{{Fn|1}}
