* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: The Blood Angels are one of the nicest chapters of Space Marines, but if they hit the Black Rage or Red Thirst, then Emperor have mercy on you, because the Blood Angels won't.

* [[Bishonen]] - The ''default'' Blood Angel Warrior is an impossibly-handsome paragon; his appearance modified by inheriting the literal genes of their Primarch Sanguinius. It's an important part of the fluff, Baal and it's moons are death worlds devastated from total war, most of it's inhabitants are severally scarred by radiation.

* [[Bling of War]]: Like all Space Marines, but given that Sanguinius took it a little further than the other Primarchs, it's only fitting that the Blood Angels take it a bit further than most Astartes, as they dress their Captains and Sanguinary Guard in gold armour. Arkio causes a bit of a buzz when he says he wants gold armour as well.

* [[Cain and Abel]]: Only [[In Space]], {{spoiler|sort of reversed, its still fratricide only the killer is upholding God's will (sort of) and the dead brother was literally turning into a [[Body Horror|Demon]]}} and both of them are unbelievably awesome badasses.

* [[Napoleon Delusion]]: Those who suffer the Black Rage believe that they are Sanguinius at the final battle with Horus during the [[Horus Heresy|Heresy]]. This makes them unable to be reasoned with, but utterly unstoppable on the battlefield unless killed.

* [[Not Using the Z Word]]: "Vampire" has been used by detractors of the Blood Angels since the Great Crusade, as such no Blood Angel will utter the word. {{spoiler|Nevertheless, Rafen immediately makes the connection when he sees Arkio being corrupted by Chaos.}}
