Kid Amid the Chaos | |
| Dawn of War / int_1bce3257 | comment |
Kid Amid the Chaos: In Dawn of War II, one squad happens on two boys searching for their mother. They bring them back all the way. Part way through, one Marine pragmatically suggests leaving them, to have Thaddeus declare that any Marine who says that will be left himself; Thaddeus looks at the boys who are not crying, though they have tear tracks. They realize their mother is almost certainly dead, and want Revenge; when Thaddeus suggests they could be Blood Ravens, they are eager for it. | |

Back-to-Back Badasses: In C. S. Goto's Dawn of War: Ascension, at the Blood Rites, aspirants form bands for this, but many are stabbed In the Back by others whom they had trusted to guard their backs. At the end of the Dawn of War II novelization, Aramus and Thaddeus are surrounded on all sides by Tyranids, and fall back to the temple ruins to hold off the Swarm in a last stand until The Cavalry arrives. | |

Shoot the Shaggy Dog | |
| Dawn of War / int_272abb98 | comment |
Shoot the Shaggy Dog: During Dawn of War: Ascension, a Blood Ravens Librarian performs a Heroic Sacrifice to save a new recruit. In Dawn of War: Tempest, however, he is found to be alive on a deserted Eldar world, suffering from Laser-Guided Amnesia. He wanders around trying to figure out just what the hell is going on, being led around by Chaos Marines who are subtly trying to sway him to join them, while an Eldar pushes him to think for himself about what they're really doing. Just when his actual chapter arrives, and he begins to realize just what is happening, the Eldar who had talked to him kills him for no visible reason, and is in turn killed by the Chaos Marines before he could explain himself, if he was even going to bother. | |

Secret Test of Character: In the original Dawn of War trilogy, Sturnn tells Gabriel that his Imperial Guard forces killed Ultramarines; Gabriel asks why and deduces (after he learns that they were disguised Alpha Legion) that Sturnn told him to find out whether he would just attack or ask questions. | |

Gladiator Games: Dawn of War: Ascension shows the Blood Raven's selecting their new recruits by ushering the aspirants into an arena and telling them they can't leave. Fighting breaks out shortly, and the Blood Ravens watch with care. Gabriel Angelos remembers his own selection: he drew his sword and killed several people on arrival, before anyone else realized they should fight. | |

Culture Clash: In the Dawn of War II, when the Blood Ravens are looking for aspirants among refugees, one speaks to the old woman who is in charge of one group to try to get a boy from her. She contemptuously refuses to speak to him because he hasn't shown her his face. He considers and unhelms rather than use force. That granted, she only asks whether the boy will have a chance to survive if they take him, and being told that he will have a chance to live, tells him to take him. | |

Revenge: In Dawn Of War II, when Phaeton hears that the Tyranids have killed his mother, he declares he will kill them all; the Space Marine tells him to let them do the fighting for now, but perhaps he might be a Blood Raven one day, whereupon his younger brother is also eager to be one so he can fight. | |

You Remind Me of X: In the Dawn of War II novelization, the two boys they find in the hive remind Thaddeus of himself at that age—partly because he came from the same sort of hive, and partly because they fit the aspirant profile. (When he suggests that they might become Blood Ravens and kill xenos such as those that killed their mother, they are quite eager to be like him.) | |

Cool Sword: Wisdom, from Dawn Of War II is explicitly described as a rare sword so marvelous as to have a name. Lost in a fight with a Tyranid, it is found again in a collection of xenos artifacts, and one Space Marine immediately takes it up in order to undo the shame. | |

Shrouded in Myth: In Dawn of War: Ascension, an aspirant had heard tales of the "Sky Angels" but thought them overblown — why, they didn't even agree on the color of their armor! When he actually sees Space Marines in battle with Eldar, he is awe-struck. After a time, he realizes that they are fighting a stalemate, but he concludes that means the foe is worthy of their steel — and that he and the other aspirants should help. | |

Bastard Understudy: In Dawn of War: Tempest, Ahriman reflects on hoe Magnus outdid the "False Emperor" and how he outdid Magnus — and how he keeps his own Prodigal Sons down, so no one would supplant him. (For instance, there is no Book of Ahriman, as there as a Book of Magnus, because he stole it.) | |
