Just wanted to know, do all blood angels have blonde (or white) hair or are there some out there with dark hair? I understand that it's a genetic trait as a result of their green seed, but I remember reading something somewhere that some BA have dark hair, Dante being one of them.

Depends. A successor with a different recruiting population could easily end up with dark hair. The First Founding Blood Angels that recruit solely from Baal all show up in all the art I've ever seen with blond hair, though.

Is a blood angle a left or right angle?
Maybe you need to use a different color seed? If a green seed give you blonde hair maybe you should try a red seed?

Blonde hair may be a trait of the chapter but the marines are not clones. There would be at least the occasional variation.

Dante does have dark hair, as does Rafen from the BA Omnibus.

The majority have blond hair, but feel free to make your Bloody Sissys -- Erm -- Angels have darker hair

It is entirely up to you ... My Mr. Phiston has black hair.

but what kind of angle is the corner?
what did you decide on color?
i think the classic dracula jet black would be very fitting

Don't worry, we got your "ethnic" gingers covered:


Anyways, I thought Astorath's hair is real. Falling that, IRRC, I think there is a picture of a brunette BA in the 5E codex model showcase section. At the end of the day though, it's not at all strange that a few BAs will have different hair colors different from the lot. I mean if you insist one of them has blue hair, well, normal people won't stop you.

Don't forget Sergeant Harker from Catachan. He is a ginger too.
