Overview
==Overview==
The Blood Gorgons were a product of the [[Twenty First Founding|21st "cursed" Founding]]. Ultimately, under the leadership of their [[Chapter Master]], the Blood Gorgons were declared traitor just 60 years after their creation. What followed next was a period of instability and anarchy for the Chapter as they were driven from their homeworld by the [[Space Wolves]] and pursued into the [[Eye of Terror]]. Shortly afterwards the Chapter took shelter on the [[Space Hulk]] ''[[Cauldron Born]]'' before descending into bands of warring sub-factions. It was only under the [[Chaos Lord]] [[Gammadin]] that the Blood Gorgons were reunified. Gammadin introduced a blood-bonding ritual and service to the [[Ruinous Powers]] as a means of maintaining unity. However unlike many other Chaos Space Marine factions, the Blood Gorgons are not slaves of [[Chaos]] and owe true allegiance to none but themselves. Shortly afterwards, the Blood Gorgons became active in the [[Bastion Sector]].{{Fn|3}}
One of the most notable elements of the Blood Gorgons is their blood-rituals process by which two members of the warband become "bond brothers". The process, derived from [[Chaotic]] lore, involves exchanging organs, blood, and tissue between two members. The process can be extremely dangerous due to Daemonic corruption, but in the end both brothers emerge stronger and draw their power from one another.{{Fn|3}}
