A big idea in my head is that the legion is from the Cursed Founding.
Maybe the seed created facial abominations, making them lose lips and eye lids. Like a deathshead legion or the like.
I see that, and big veins visible across their pallid skin.
Maybe they were contaminated with nurgle so slight that the seed began to rot yet they were generally not bound to him nor caring of him. Maybe not even aware of his doing, only the hell they endure everyday.
Only enough that they look like dead, lipless vampires, but live and breathe. A cross between blood angels rules and deathguard rules for starters.
Since their major visible curse is their mangled faces, most wear plain black masks/helmets and the ranks wear ornate masks, ala Dante or Kingdom of Heaven.
They hate humanity for creating them and trying to destroy their failure, leading to the escape of key men and geneseed and the hiddne creation of the rest of the chapter on a desolate carrion world. Fugue or something of the like.
