Celestial Swords

The Celestial Swords is a now extinct Loyalist Space Marine Chapter created sometime in the 37th Millennium during an Unknown Founding and from uncertain lineage. Uniquely, the Celestial Swords hold the distinction of being two Chapters founded with identical names and heraldries. Almost nothing else is known about this Chapter in official Imperial records.

History
Over the millennia, some Space Marine Chapters have been annihilated, only for a new Chapter to be founded with the same name, heraldry and traditions of their forebears. On one occasion, two Chapters named the Celestial Swords were created with identical names and matching heraldry. Such is the bureaucracy of the Administratum that the blunder was not realised until two centuries later, when both Chapters were wiped out by Abaddon's 9th Black Crusade in 537.M38, and the bodies of nearly two-thousand battle-brothers were recovered in the Cicerine System.
