According to the custom of the gladiators he was raised among, Angron cut scars into his torso after each of his battles, in a continuing length known as the '''Triumph Rope'''. For every victory, the scar would be left to heal normally, while for every defeat the warrior would work some dirt into the wound and cause the scar to turn black. Angron was the only gladiator in his world's history without any black scars.{{Fn|2}}
[[Corax]] believed that no other [[Primarch]] could have bested Angron in single combat save for [[Horus]] and perhaps [[Sanguinius]].{{Fn|4}} [[Leman Russ (Primarch)|Leman Russ]] was often considered his equal; {{Fn|11a}} [[Rogal Dorn]], on the other hand, believed that he could defeat Angron easily, and feared him much less as an adversary than he did Horus.{{Fn|14}}
Before possessing the [[Butcher's Nails]] Angron displayed an inherent psychic ability which allowed him to not only feel but also somehow absorb the pain and negative emotions of others. He used this to calm child slaves in the caves of [[Nuceria]].{{Fn|25e}}
