Emperor's Children

The Emperor’s Children, also sometimes known after their fall as the Lords of Profligacy, are a Traitor Legion of Chaos Space Marines who devote themselves solely to the service of the Chaos God Slaanesh, the Prince of Pleasure, though they were originally the Imperium of Man‘s proud IIIrd Legion of Astartes. The Emperor’s Children was the only Space Marine Legion to bear the Emperor’s own name and His own icon — the Palatine Aquila — granted to them by His hand as a symbol of the Legion’s martial perfection. Few were ever so honoured amongst the ancient Space Marine Legions and given less cause to betray the Master of Mankind than the Emperor’s Children.
