The Grand Masters of the Inner Circle swore that so long as even one of the Traitor Fallen remained alive and unrepentant, the Dark Angels would be Unforgiven, cursed by their own brothers to atone for all eternity for the sins of the past. An Inner Circle of the Legion’s most senior officers was formed to forever guard this dangerous knowledge, and each member swore oaths of unspeakable binding.
Should this dreadful truth ever become known they feared the Dark Angels would be reviled as Traitors, and all hope of expunging the stain to their honour would be lost forever.
They decreed that knowledge of the fall of their lost brothers to Chaos must remain undisclosed for all time, and that no outsider must ever learn of the schism that had split the I Legion or that some Space Marines of the Dark Angels had turned to the Ruinous Powers. 4.1 Interrogator-Chaplain in Terminator ArmourĬarrying out an interrogation of a Fallen AngelĪfter the Fall of Caliban, the senior members of the Dark Angels Legion assembled in secret conclave.Interrogator-Chaplains are members of the Chapter's Inner Circle, as their duties require that they have knowledge of many more of the Chapter's secrets than is normal for Dark Angels of their rank. Those that refuse to do so inevitably die in agony during the interrogation, as the Chaplain is forced to use ever more drastic measures to make clear the error of their ways. The successful Interrogator-Chaplain is allowed to add a single black pearl to his Rosarius for each of the Fallen he convinces to repent. Interrogator-Chaplains are as skilled in the arts of interrogation, torture and psychological manipulation as most experienced members of the Inquisition's Ordo Hereticus.
From that moment on they become shadowed mirrors of their previous selves where most Chaplains are bellowing firebrands who inspire their brothers, Interrogator-Chaplains are silent and intense, watching always for the slightest hint of heresy or weakness. Sworn to the Inner Circle during a convoluted ceremony in the Hall of Secrets of The Rock, every Interrogator-Chaplain has passed the Test of Faith, taken the solemn vow of the Deathwing and learned the dark secrets of his Chapter's history. Menacing figures of fear, the Interrogator-Chaplains of the Dark Angels unsettle even their own Battle-Brothers with their silent scrutiny. These fearsome specialists are tasked with the interrogation of any Fallen Angel who has been captured by the Dark Angels or the Unforgiven to admit their sins and repent of their betrayal of the Emperor of Mankind and their Primarch Lion El'Jonson during the Horus Heresy. Attributed to Interrogator-Chaplain AsmodaiĪn Interrogator-Chaplain leads his Battle-Brothers into battleĪn Interrogator-Chaplain is a member of a special cadre of Chaplains that are exclusive to the Dark Angels Space Marine Chapter and their Unforgiven Successors. There is no salvation without suffering."
