====Possible Thousand Sons connections====

*The Blood Ravens are established to have enough similarities in battle doctrine (i.e. high number of [[Psyker]]s and the use thereof) to the Thousand Sons that it has been noted by observers within the fiction itself.{{Fn|2b}}

*The pre-[[Horus Heresy|Heresy]] heraldry of the Thousand Sons is similar to the heraldry of the Blood Ravens; specifically the Thousand Sons [[Corvidae]] cult, who as well as wearing the red armour of all Thousand Sons, also sport a black raven insignia (though admittedly of just the raven's head rather than the whole bird).{{Fn|12a}} But since the there are many successor chapters that have notably different colours and chapter symbol from their founding Legion is this not the greatest of connections. Just as the in-universe speculations about the Blood Ravens being [[Blood Angels]] or [[Raven Guard]] successors based on similarities in names and heraldry.{{Fn|2e}}{{Fn|11l}}

*During an incident on the planet [[Arcadia (Eldar)|Arcadia]], [[Librarian]] [[Rhamah]] of the Blood Ravens suffered amnesia and fell in with the [[Prodigal Sons]] warband of Thousand Sons [[Sorcerer-lord]] [[Ahzek Ahriman]]. Throughout this association Ahriman and his warband referred to Rhamah variously as "Son of Ahriman", "friend of Ahriman" and as a "lost brother". Furthermore, when Rhamah locates an ancient [[Eldar]] tome - called ''[[Quezul'reah]]'' — that bears the crest of the Blood Ravens upon its cover, Ahriman concedes that he once owned a copy of the book and that another one was in the possession of [[Azariah Vidya]] (of whom Ahriman states, "I knew Vidya better than you might expect"). He further states to Rhamah "We are not so different, you and I. We were not always so different...there was a time, long ago, before the [[Rubric of Ahriman|Change]], when the Thousand Sons of [[Magnus]] wore the blood-red armour of their [[Primarch]]."{{Fn|8d}} No explanation is given for what any of this means, and it should be noted that Ahriman is a master of deceit and trickery who was attempting to use Rhamah for his own ends.

* In ''[[Index Astartes]] - Knowledge is Power: the Blood Ravens Space Marine Chapter'' (in [[White Dwarf 305 (UK)]]) and in ''[[Index Astartes]] - Blood Ravens: Non Shall Find Us Wanting'' (in [[White Dwarf July 2019]]) the section talking of their combat doctrine alludes to how their use of foresight to guide them and warn them is how [[Magnus the Red]]'s path of damnation begun.{{Fn|2b}}{{Fn|11j}}
