seems to be in fine order from what i can tell

storm jungle
#

Yeah the format looks the same

#

id be real sad if it went down, its like the best 40k meme source there is

crisp heath
#

Ye

#

damn bros

#

the carcharadons are raven guard successors that for some reason added night lords genes in em

#

That sounds like an awful idea

barren tapir
#

What make you say that they are raven guard successor?

storm jungle
#

I agree

#

Birds and Sharks are different animals!

#

totally unrelated!

crisp heath
#

there's a lot that says theyre raven successors seems like

#

two books straight up say they are

#

and in the rules theyre listed as raven guard successors

rotund siren
storm jungle
#

they got wings shut up

rotund siren
barren tapir
#

Well, that seems to solve all then... Although it is the first time i heard this

rotund siren
#

that is neato I guess?

#

weird, but sure

barren tapir
#

Eh, i don't know how much neato tbh

crisp heath
#

yeah it seems like the common opinion is "no one knows" but there's official stuff that straight up says they're raven guard

#

(successors)

#

that somehow added night lords juice into them

#

Aren’t the Carcharodons chimeric, with a mix of RG, NL, and WE geneseed?

crisp heath
#

me

rotund siren
#

wait. you mean to tell me you're not a screaming Tau office worker?

crisp heath
#

um....

#

never thought about it like that

open marsh
#

People think "WE" because they're brutal in melee. Completely forgetting that the Night Lords are too

#

And people think chimeric because....well there really isnt a reason. People just throw "chimeric" towards any traitor legion successors because I guess they dont like the idea of a traitor legion successor just having traitor legion geneseed

crisp heath
#

the chimeric thing comes from the two black library books that state that they're chimeric, i thought

open marsh
#

Some of the final nails in the coffin comes from some Night Lords who were fighting the Carcharadons (over the same recruiting grounds. because they have the same recruiting methods)

open marsh
#

These Loyalists were different from the ones he’d outwitted in the past. None of his Claw leaders reported having ever encountered them before. Even Shadraith was seemingly without answers, practically abandoned by his pathetic daemonic patron. Their fighting style was not one Cull recognised. If anything, it seemed eerily like the Night Lords’ own doctrines.

#

The Night Lords were caught off guard that any loyalist actually fought like them

#

And the Carcharacadons knew exactly how the Night Lords fought (since that was their style as well)

#

Twice Cull had watched in silent fury as Loyalist squads had refused to take the bait and follow up on retreating cultist squads that would have led them into carefully laid ambushes. And on the single occasion where the Night Lords had gained the upper hand – where Artar’s Fourth Claw had managed to split and outflank a Loyalist squad that had pushed too far ahead of the support in the tunnels either side – the corpse-worshippers had broken from combat and disengaged.

rotund siren
#

that is cool

crisp heath
#

sweet

open marsh
#

Then a daemon the Night Lords were working with directly calls the Carcharadons the "lost brothers" of the Night Lords

crisp heath
#

i kinda wanna read the carcharadon books

#

would you reccomend them?

open marsh
#
 ‘Others?’
 The Hunters in the Void. Your lost brothers.
 ‘That means nothing to me. Do not speak in your senseless riddles, daemon.’
 The Pale Nomad and the rest of his mongrel, exiled kin. You have seen him with your foresight. You will know them when he arrives. Find the boy before he does.```

#

thank u for the info

open marsh
#

On the subject of their geneseed. The corpse of a "Carcharadon" was found abandoned (suspicious, if you know how the Carcharadons work) and it was tested and found to have what was most likely "Raven Guard" geneseed. But then, in a Carcharadon's book. It was shown they dont actually use that geneseed besides for sending in as tithes and trading for gear. Leaning to them having left that corpse as a decoy

#

Even the Ashen Claws, a rogue successor chapter/warband of Raven Guard call them "traitor-born"

#
 ‘Sit down, Brother Tanthius,’ snapped a voice. The command did not come from Nev, but from the human woman sitting beside him. She glared at the Space Marine who had risen. The Ashen Claw glanced at his Chapter Master, but Nev’s black eyes hadn’t left Sharr’s. After a moment, Tanthius retrieved his seat.```
barren tapir
#

Who is that woman?

#

Huge lotara sarrin (iirc her name correctly) vibes

open marsh
#

When mentioning they were trading RG geneseed, they call it "your" genetic legacy (speaking to the Ashen Claws), not "our" genetic legacy. The Ashen Claws also ask if it was actually RG geneseed, and not whatever geneseed the Carcharadons use

#
 ‘You have not contaminated it with your disgusting breed?’ Nev demanded.```
crisp heath
#

OooooOOHHH

#

so you're sayin they pretend to be raven guard so no one's like "dude why are we letting night lords just chill with us?"

open marsh
#

Yep

crisp heath
#

kind of fucking awesome

open marsh
#

Only the Ashen Claws seem aware of this. Tho as the Ashen Claws are considered renegade (even if they are still loyal) the Carcharodons arent worried if they try to rat them out

barren tapir
#

Very NL thing to do

crisp heath
#

Carcharadons are kinda SICK!!!

#

omg

#

I gotta read dis

#

aight so all i gotta do is read

#

SHARK SCREAM

open marsh
#

Night Lords vs Carcharodons. So Traitor Night Lords vs Loyalist Night Lords.

open summit
#

I'm very willing to say that the Carcharodons are actually descended from one of the purged primarchs, purely because their signature mutations are unique (despite similarities to other chapters) and their aesthetic does not match that of any of the other legions (they follow what strikes me as a pacific islander theme).

open marsh
#

They have too many similarities to the Night Lords to not be Night Lords. And that daemon points out they are Night Lords.

hallow apex
#

Daemons lie.

#

On the other hand, the purged Primarch gene-sons were dispersed through the XIII and the VII.

#

And I think one more legion received them.

crisp heath
#

Soul Drinkers are from a Lost Primarch

#

is there a quick reference to all the numbers relating to the primarchs

open marsh
#

Ah

#

@crisp heath Also I forgot another link between the Carcharadons and the Night Lords. Possibly hinting at their founder

#

A vision that Sevatar has, towards the end of the Horus Heresy:

breathing. A sense of serenity cloaks him, and a feeling of cold, cold focus that
has eluded him for decades.
When he dreams now it is not of the dead, but of the endless night between
worlds. The deepest void, where a thousand threats drift, away from the light
of loyal suns. The domains of aliens and monsters forced into exile by the
Great Crusade, still crying out to be extinguished once and for all. The true
threats to mankind.```

^ that is the long and short of what the Carcharodons are

#

What their mission is

obtuse vault

#

None of the Night Lords exhibit shark-like traits like sandpaper skin, though.

open marsh
#

Likely just a mutation developed over the thousands of years

It seems very specific, though, similar to the Space Wolves and the Canis Helix

god i hate it when i randomly get shark skin

And I think it's something that isn't standard to the Carcharadons

#

Tho they all do have a deathly pallor

The Raven Guard also have pale skin.

Yep. And its a way they disguise themselves as Raven Guard.

I thought they were just mean Raven Guard successors, but NuclearMedic showed me some pretty substantial proof that they're Night Lords who were sent far far away and got back way after the Heresy happened and remained loyal, pretending to be Raven Guard sucessors.

hallow apex
#

Hard to say, honestly. The dispersal happened before the Horus Heresy itself, hence before the concept of Chapters themselves as we know them today.

#

I have a bit of a fan-theory and personal head-canon that Sigismund was a Legionary from one of the Lost Primarchs, in that his temperament clashed pretty wildly with his Primarch’s.

ALL the traitor legions purged themselves of loyalists, and ALL the loyalist legions purged themselves of traitors

"fter att ha varit vilande sedan 2010 återupptogs en del av värnplikten 2014, då redan krigsplacerade kunde kallas till repetitionsutbildningar. Från 2018 utökades värnplikten och nu mönstras årligen ett stort antal 18-åriga män och kvinnor för grundutbildning.

Utbildningens längd är mellan 6 och 15 månader. Den första delen utgörs av så kallad grundläggande militär utbildning (GMU) och pågår i tre månader. Den följs av en befattningsutbildning på upp till 12 månader.

Utöver grundutbildning omfattar värnplikten även repetitionsutbildning, beredskapstjänstgöring och krigstjänstgöring." @coarse mirage

Its not stated why it doesnt work on women. Only that it doesnt. The selection process of Custodes is extremely strict. With very few of those given to them for recruitment actually making it. Big E wouldnt artificially restrict the recruitment pool by 50%.

#

Hey guys I am still learning about the different Astartes legions and I was just curious. What are the defining traits of the blood angels?

tender igloo
#

I would say the biggest defining traits are their nobility and general love of the arts, and the constant battle within them to prevent their fall to the black rage. That's putting it very basically though.

crisp heath
#

Poor Banshee

fallow drum
#

In fact both of those things sound like them

tender igloo
#

No, I would say their love of the arts is more akin to keeping them in touch with their humanity, rather than a desire to be perfect

fallow drum
#

Interesting. I am going through Horus Heresy and still haven't gotten to a book centered around them.

tender igloo
#

if i recall correctly, before sanguinius was found the blood angels were basically just as savage and bloodthirsty as the world eaters. But their primarch's return helped transform them into a legion of noble warriors

fallow drum
#

That sounds pretty cool. I always find stories of primarchs uniting with their legions to be very interesting. Legion origin stories are always pretty cool. May I ask what black rage basically is?

tender igloo
#

the black rage started at the end of the Horus Heresy when Sanguinius was killed by Horus. The psychic backlash was so intense that it left a genetic imprint on the gene-seed of the blood angels that causes the blood angel in question to experience that final battle as if they were Sanguinius himself, when under extreme battlefield duress. Once you fall to the black rage, you cannot come back from it

fallow drum
#

Fuck

That's intense but also that's what you would expect from 40k

they are nigh unstoppable in that state and are kept sealed away until dire circumstances require them

I probably butchered some of that, but i'm not the most well versed on the blood angels

and their red armor painted black

as an example

So if I see a blood angel painted red it is pre-horus heresy end?

oh yeah i forgot they also see every enemy as Horus

mint hill
#

Kinda dumb that they can't tell the difference between say, a chaos character (representing Horus) And a tyranid.

cloud kindle
#

usually the final words of a space marine before falling into the black rage is screaming for the emperor

tender igloo
#

There is also the fan theory that the final battle between Horus and Sanguinius actually went down very differently

#

What happens is that Sagnuinius kills Horus but falls to the black rage himself, and when The Emperor shows up he is mortally wounded and is force to kill Sanguinius

cloud kindle
#

also when sanguinius fell his legion on terra fell into the black rage instantly and unleashed such a savage counter attack against the traitors that several started to retreat

especially after sanguinius is exhausted from defending the eternity gate and a battle against kabandar

i could believe it simply because of the black rage angle that theory has on it

actually was it eternity gate or some other vital entrance into the palace

i could accept that Sanguinius falling to the black rage has more dire consequences to it than an astartes falling to it

The biggest problem of the emperor is that he had become so alien to the rest of humanity that he really did not understand them at all. he simply could not comprehend that they don't always make choices based on logic or reason

Many people saw that, some because the warp, other because things were going weird, but no one believed that... Dorn kill a SM because tell him that horus was a traitor, guillman punish one of his SM that simply thought about making battle plans for inter legion warfare...
