Strict followers of the Codex Astartes, the Blood Drinkers have blood-drinking rituals and suffer a literal blood-lust, due to a mutation of the chapter's Omophagea gene seed. Members of the Chapter are described as having a perpetual air of aridity, likely due to the above mutation.
《阿斯塔特圣典》的严格遵守者,饮血者有吸血仪式,并因该战团的基因侦测神经基因种子突变而遭受字面上的嗜血欲望。该战团的成员被描述为有一种永恒干燥的空气,可能是由于上述突变。

Space Marine of the Blood Drinkers, 2nd Company, 4th Squad 饮血者第二连队第四小队的星际战士
While they seem to have overcome the worst aspects of the flaw of the Blood Angels successors, with low incidence of Black Rage and a small Death Company, the truth is that instead of denying or controlling the Red Thirst, they surrender to it.
虽然他们似乎已经克服了圣血天使子战团缺陷的最坏方面,黑怒的发生率很低,死亡连也很小,但事实是,他们没有否认或控制血渴,而是屈服于它。
The truth behind the Blood Drinkers is far more insidious, however. By M37 the Blood Drinkers were a dying chapter, brothers succumbed to the Black Rage as soon as they were fully initiated. A battle-brother named Holos, against the orders of the Chapter Council, followed a dream that told him to ascend to the top of Mount Calicium. At the peak he supposedly met an angel, which some claim to be Sanguinius, who told him how to save his dying Chapter. The Rite of Holos, as it came to be known, is a gathering of marines (rank is suspended in these meetings apart from Chaplains and Sanguinary Priests) where they drink blood from serfs who provide it freely and sacrifice an unwilling victim. "Blood given, blood taken." This balances the ritual and calms the Thirst.
然而,饮血者背后的真相要隐伏得多。到了M37,饮血者已经是一个垂死的战团,兄弟们一完全开始就屈服于黑怒。一个名叫霍洛斯的战斗兄弟,违背战团议会的命令,做了一个梦,告诉他要登上卡利库姆山的山顶。据说在山顶,他遇到了一位天使,自称为圣吉列斯,天使告诉他如何拯救垂死的战团。众所周知,霍洛斯仪式是战士的聚会(除了牧师和圣血祭司外,在这些集会上,军衔都是暂停的),他们在那里喝侍从的血,侍从免费提供血液,并牺牲一个不情愿的受害者。“献血,抽血。”这平衡了仪式,平静了饥渴。
However, the truth behind the Rite was that Holos was visited not by an angel but by a daemon, heavily implied to be Kairos Fateweaver, who made a deal with the battle-brother. In exchange for the blood-drinking Rite that would save thousands of brothers from the Death Company, Kairos would gain the ability to change the visions of a select few Death Company marines from the normal visions of Sanguinius's death to those of Holos and the daemon itself. As of M39, eighteen brothers had witnessed it, and Kairos had spoken through the memories to each battle-brother, tempting them with the power of Chaos. If one even so much as thinks of accepting Kairos's offer the entire Chapter will be damned and fall to Chaos. Thus far, all have refused Kairos, but the Daemon cares not as only a single "Yes" or even "Maybe" is necessary for the Blood Drinkers to be damned forever. Only the Reclusiarchs know the truth behind the Rite, though it is unknown if they wish the Chapter to fall.
然而,仪式背后的真相是,霍洛斯不是被天使拜访的,而是被一个恶魔拜访的,这在很大程度上暗示了是卡洛斯·织命者,他与战斗兄弟达成了协议。作为将数千名兄弟从死亡连中拯救出来的吸血仪式的交换,卡洛斯将获得将少数死亡连战士的幻象从圣吉列斯之死的正常幻象改变为霍洛斯和恶魔本身的幻象的能力。截至M39,已有18名兄弟目睹了这一幕,卡洛斯通过回忆与每个战斗兄弟交谈,用混沌的力量引诱他们。如果一个人甚至是想接受卡洛斯的提议,整个战团都会被诅咒,堕入混沌。到目前为止,所有人都拒绝了卡洛斯,但恶魔并不在乎,因为只要有一个“是”甚至“也许”就是让饮血者永远被诅咒的必要条件。只有隐修长知道仪式背后的真相,尽管尚不清楚他们是否希望这一战团堕落。

Blood Drinkers practice some mysterious and suspicious rituals, such as the Sanguis Excrucio and the Red Tears. Their controversial bloody practices may have given them a unique level of control over the Black Rage, which is less likely to occur within the Chapter than other Blood Angels successors.
饮血者会进行一些神秘而可疑的仪式,如鲜血折磨和血红之泪。他们有争议的血腥行为可能让他们对黑怒有了独特的控制,这在战团中发生的可能性比其他圣血天使的子战团小。

Date Unknown: A squad of ten Blood Drinker Marines in a damaged cruiser landed on the apparently loyal Imperial world Karkason only to find that the Planetary Governor Fulgor Sagramoso had declared independence from Imperial rule. The squad, led by Lieutenant Kroff Tezla, were pitted against a force of Titans that Sagramoso had hidden on his world. One by one the Marines were killed by the Titans for the sport of the locals until only their leader remained. A Titan then scooped up Tezla and offered him to Sagramoso as a trophy. Sagramoso had the Lieutenant mutilated and then imprisoned. Unable to flee, Tezla entered a dormant Sus-an Membrane state, only to be roused years later when the Imperial Fists found him by accident, when the Chapter invaded the world. Tezla was then able to warn the Imperial Fists about the Titans, avoiding disaster and allowing for Sagramoso's forces to be defeated. Afterwards, Tezla was recovered by the Imperial Fists and had his wounds treated. However they were too severe for augmetic replacement, so instead the Chapter equipped the Lieutenant with a mobile chair and two Servitors to care for him until Tezla was finally reunited with the Blood Drinkers.
