To qualify for Manly Facial Hair, the facial hair must be associated with masculinity in some way. Please read the trope description before readding to make sure the example qualifies.


* BadassBeard:
** A large part of the Swedakiin mutation is the growing of their incredible facial hair.

Originally a Steam group dedicated to ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}}'' based games and the love of [[VideoGame/DawnOfWar Indrick Boreale]] it eventually evolved into a fictional Marine Chapter in the 40k verse. The group, under the realworld guide of Alfabusa, the founder of the steam group and the current Chapter Master of the Alfa Legion, creates many videos detailing the life and events of the legion and Indrick Boreale, as well as maintaining forums and organizing events and even running a podcast/vidcast thing.

THEY ARE QUITE GLORIOUS.

The Legion itself is a RagtagBunchofMisfits that worship the teachings of Indrick Boreale, as well as engage in frequent kleptomania and barfights. HilarityEnsues.
