The Galaxy is in flames. The Emperor's glorious vision for Humanity is in ruins. His most stalwart son, Rogal Dorn, has turned from his father's light and embraced the Ruinous Powers.
His armies, the mighty and redoubtable Space Marines, are locked in a brutal civil war. Once, these ultimate warriors fought side by side as brothers, protecting the galaxy and bringing Mankind back into the Emperor's light. Now they are divided.
Some remain loyal to the Emperor, whilst others have sided with the Arch-Betrayer. Pre-eminent amongst them, the leaders of their thousands-strong Legions are the Primarchs. Magnificent, superhuman beings, they are the crowning achievement of the Emperor's genetic science. Thrust into battle against one another, victory is uncertain for either side.
Worlds are burning. At Isstvan V, Dorn dealt a vicious blow and three loyal Legions were all but destroyed. A new war was begun, a conflict that will engulf all Mankind in fire. Treachery and betrayal have usurped honour and nobility. Assassins lurk in every shadow. Armies are gathering. All must choose a side or die.
Dorn musters his armada, with Terra itself the object of his wrath. Seated upon the Golden Throne, the Emperor awaits for his wayward son to return. But His true enemy is Chaos, a primordial force that seeks to enslave Mankind to its capricious whims.
The screams of the innocent and the pleas of the righteous resound to the cruel laughter of the Dark Gods. Suffering and damnation await all should the Emperor fail and the war be lost.
The Age of Knowledge and enlightenment has ended. The Age of Darkness has begun.About Dornian Heresy Wiki
The Dornian Heresy Wiki is a community of fans of the beloved Bolter & Chainsword forum's fan-created alternate universe - the Dornian Heresy - where familiar Primarchs and Space Marine Legions have met very different fates. In this twisted alternate timeline Warmaster Horus was able to cast off the daemonic influences that sought to possess him, and where the Ruinous Powers were instead forced to corrupt Rogal Dorn instead to overthrow the Emperor.

The World Eaters are a Loyalist First Founding Space Marine Legion known for their savage tactics and brutal efficiency which is counteracted by their restraint and iron-bound discipline. Of all the Space Marine legions, none exemplifies the virtues of martial honour and strict self-control more than the World Eaters. Just as Angron transcended his violent youth, he ensured that his legion would shrug off every setback and betrayal to become paragons of the warrior creed, and ardent supporters of the Emperor's intention to unify the galaxy.
Traitors and Loyalists and conflict, Oh My!
