Chaplains serve a much different role in Legions than they do in the Chapters of the 41st Millenium. Each had a unique tradition, in harmony with the philosophy of their Primarch.

To the Word Bearers, they were heralds, inspired orators driving back the darkness of Old Night with enlightened Imperial doctrine.
For the Ultramarines, their service took on a form of front-line heroism. Driving the line forward, they embodied the very finest traditions of the Ultramarines.
