*After their introduction in [[Codex: Chaos Space Marines (4th Edition)]], the Flawless Host were stated to possess the characteristic gene-seed markers of the [[Emperor's Children]] [[Traitor Legion]], making them a likely subfaction or offshoot of that Legion; further connections with the Emperor's Children included the resemblance of their armour and their shared devotion to [[Slaanesh]].{{Fn|1}} However, the [[Codex: Chaos Space Marines (6th Edition)|6th Edition Codex]] retcons and fills in their prior history, and confirms that they are a [[Renegade Chapter]], formerly known as the Shining Blades.{{Fn|3}}

*A warband of [[Emperor's Children]] calling itself the "Flawless Host" assaulted a unnamed [[Imperial]] world as part of a larger army, The [[Incarnadine Host]]. However, millennia of raiding, defeat, bitterness and bloodshed had reduced them to only five [[Chaos Space Marine|Marines]]. Before the last Imperial bastion was destroyed, in-fighting saw all but one of the Flawless Host killed. The survivor, a disfigured [[Apothecary]] named [[Le'Furion]] took the bodies of his fallen brothers and planned on using [[Dark Eldar]] technology to create a new body for himself out of the corpses. The Imperial bastion fell soon after to the [[World Eaters]] warband, the [[Blood Hounds]].{{Fn|4}} Whether this is the same warband is unknown.
