The '''Luminous Host''' were the '''246th Cohort''' of the [[Imperium]]'s [[Solar Auxilia]], during the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]].{{Fn|1a}}
==History==
Sworn to serve the [[Blood Angels]] [[Space Marine Legion|Legion]], by ancestral bonds and sworn oaths, the Host were among the [[Imperial]] forces that defended the [[Ultramarines]]' [[Imperium Secundus]], during the [[Horus Heresy]]. They would later be tasked with aiding the Ultramarines' efforts to replenish the losses they suffered in the [[Betrayal at Calth]]. This led several of the Luminous Hosts' [[Regiments]] to be dispatched to recover the Legion's [[Gene-seed]] that was stored on [[Talassar]], with the [[Gilded Sentinels]] [[Solar Auxilia]] and [[Judiciar]] [[Aster Crohne]]'s Blood Angels forces. However by then, the world was in rebellion, after the [[Night Lords]] had invaded Talassar and turned some of its population against the Imperium.{{Fn|1a}} Despite the [[Traitor Legion]]'s efforts though, the Blood Angels succeeded in reclaiming the Gene-seed from '''Velx City''''s '''Castrum Velx''' fortress.{{Fn|1b}}
