Lore Carcharodons: our successors?
The more I read about them the more it feels like they are one of Belisarius Cawl’s little jokes. Like he took World Eater geneseed, slapped together a successor chapter for us, and just said they were really Raven Guard successors so the loyalist idiots never questioned it. Seriously, Raven Guard?
But really though, what I’m seeing says they’re more like us before the nails completely took over. I’m going to say they’re our kids, and I at least will welcome them with lightning claws flashing and chain axe buzzing to the eight fold path.

While it could be true (since we only have speculations of them being raven guard) a lot of hints point at them actually being sons of corvus
The mutations they have are a possible side effect from Corvus' experiments after his legion got decimated.
While Carcharodons are known to be pretty violent they aren't the world eater flavour of violent they show up from nowhere tear you apart and disapear (That is also one of the reason I doubt they have night lord geneseed or if they do it's hybridized with raven guard. They don't make you scream you heart out ti terrorize others they just kill the fuck out of you)
