Gabriel Seth - Gabriel Seth: Gabriel Seth, known as the "Guardian of Rage," is the current Chapter Master of the infamous Flesh Tearers Space Marine Chapter. A Second Founding Successor Chapter of the Blood Angels' Sanguinary Brotherhood, the Flesh Tearers have served Humanity since the dawn of the Age of the Imperium.Tragically, the Flesh Tearers have become increasingly prone to the most extreme effects of the Blood Angels' genetic Flaw known as the Black Rage, to such an extent that the Chapter long stood at the very brink of oblivion.Gabriel Seth became Chapter Master of the Flesh Tearers as his Chapter was near annihilation. Millennia of unrelenting savagery had left the Chapter shunned and distrusted by many of the Imperium's fighting forces. Seth knows that he cannot realistically curtail his battle-brothers' bloodlust -- indeed he himself is as prone to rage-soaked savagery as any of his brethren.Other Space Marine Chapters had long viewed the Flesh Tearers as being but a single step from turning Renegade, and the Inquisition sought to have the Chapter investigated. Worse, mutation in the Flesh Tearers' gene-seed had exacerbated Sanguinius' curse, increasing the incidence of the Black Rage well beyond that seen in other Blood Angel successors. Even those Flesh Tearers fortunate enough to escape the Black Rage were gripped by a bloodthirsty recklessness that inevitably cost many lives whenever the Chapter went to war.Yet the Flesh Tearers managed to conceal their worst excesses by staying apart from other Imperial forces on the battlefield and always unleashing their savage assaults first. In the same way did the Flesh Tearers avoid the collateral damage amongst their allies that once was the hallmark of the Chapter's assaults. Now, worlds that once reviled the Flesh Tearers praise them as saviours.It is too early to tell if Seth's strategy will ultimately bear fruit, especially as with the Devastation of Baal, the Chapter has been brought back up to full strength with the integration of Primaris Space Marines who are known to be far more resistant to the Flaw than their brethren.Despite such changes to the Chapter's doctrine, Seth has not yet quelled the concerns of the Flesh Tearers' greatest critics. Yet such things are of little concern to the Flesh Tearers Chapter Master, for, in his heart, Seth never truly abandoned hope that the Flesh Tearers can be spared from ultimate oblivion. What fate ultimately lies in store for the Flesh Tearers and their Chapter Master, only time will tell.It was a desperate hope at best until the arrival of the Indomitus Crusade on Baal and the inclusion of the Primaris Marines in the Flesh Tearers' ranks. Now Seth has a new fear -- that when his Chapter has lost their defining rage, they may transform into something different...something less than the true scions of Sanguinius. For all his efforts to challenge the commonly held perceptions of his Chapter as berserk butchers, Gabriel Seth is every bit the bloody whirlwind when he plunges into battle.He wields an enormous two-handed chainsword named Blood Reaver, and is more than capable of hacking even the most monstrous enemies limb from limb with it. As he fights, Seth lashes out at his opponents with vicious kicks, punches and headbutts, using every part of his anatomy as a weapon.The Chapter Master prefers to plunge headlong into massed foes before unleashing his full ferocity upon the bodies pressed in around him, and it has been remarked by Commander Dante of the Blood Angels that such luckless victims would have more chance of surviving a Battle Cannon shell landing in their midst. Indeed, the blood-drenched results are not dissimilar...
