The Night Lords were originally the VIIIth Legion of Space Marines created during the First Founding. They betrayed the trust of the Emperor of Mankind during the Horus Heresy of the 31st Millennium and became one of the 9 Traitor Legions of Chaos Space Marines.
The Night Lords do not worship any of the four Chaos Gods individually, but acknowledge them equally in the form of Chaos Undivided as they ruthlessly spread terror and fear amongst the galaxy's inhabitants. The Night Lords are experts in the use of terror tactics to win battles and demoralise their foes before the main combat even begins.
Konrad said to Sanguinius that the only difference between them was the planet they ended up on, and Sanguinius towards the end was afraid that Konrad might have been right about that.
That seems to be a common theme among the primarchs.
@@rdogg114 Either that or how they were treated. Like say, Angron
They kinda avoid fucking with the blood angles for a reason. See the red thrist, and Black Rage prove Konrad Cruze right, but it's what they say under the influence of it that scares them.
Konrad Cruze was on Terra, Konrad Kruze was offered back into the fold, Kruze refused. See the blood angles don't just shout from 1 battle they go over many of his final days and the Nightlord found that out frist hand.

My favorite thing about Sevatar is the fact that he MIGHT be a founding member of the Grey Knights. There’s a tomb on Titan with a scarred warrior casually leaning on a halberd, and his epitaph closes with, “If you wish to grow wise, learn why brothers betray brothers”

Night Lords, the Dark Eldar of the Space Marines.
No that's the emperors children
@@arandomguy1943 I get the Emperors children are Slaanesh worshippers but Night lords act more like Dark Eldar. Admirably my knowledge on Emperors children is limited but they're more pre fall Eldar.
@@sirgaz8699 thats fair the night Lords act far more like pirates than the emperors children but the emperors children are probably far more degenerate than the night lords
Imagine an alternate timeline where Curze grew up in Commoragh instead of Nostramo.
And he grew up and learned from the Haemonculi like Fabius Bile did. Then he uses the technology and knowledge he learned to create a Commoragh version of Night Lords, outfitted with Dark Eldar/Space Marines hybrid gear and aesthetics, as a sub faction of the Drukhari as a mercenary group. I think the combination would be sick af but the edginess would be like maxed out over level 9000 lmao.
@@arandomguy1943 i'd say degenerate in a different way, in terms of deviancy they both are severe, but the emperors children are more sex drugs and rock & roll where the nightlord's degeneracy is far more vulgar.
there was one story where the entire legion worked together for the first time since curze died and they did it to retrieve something from an imperial world. once the fighting was done it was revealed that the thing they wanted was a recording of konrad before he died and the sight of their primarch after him being dead for thousands of years was enough to move the entire legion to tears. a simple story but it shows you how even though kurze hated them they still looked up to him after all he was the only person who could lead them and make this group of murderers and rapists a true force to be reckoned with. he wasthe only one who ever believed that the night lords should stand for something and do more than just torture for the fun of it, even though hegave up in the end at least he tried in the beginning unlike the emperor and other primarchs.
I believe to that the recording was intently messed up in a few ways to spite the nightlords but they didn't care just seeing papa konrad was enough for them even in 144p quality.
In which book is that story from?

Slavic squatting Night Lords? Damn, that feels like a description of me.
@Ярослав Л imperial fists are german
ian watterSON Agreed, they have the strategy boner, mustaches, and Iron cross symbolism everywhere.
Whereas the Night Lords are stabbing enthusiasts who would LOVE to blast insane beats before fighting people (by fighting I mean torturing with a melon peeler)
@Ярослав Л Personally I've always associated Night Lords naturally with Slavs, but not Eastern Slavs. Only us Southern Slavs. I think the two groups are too disparate to have a single legion present both of them.
The first Earth culture parallel that jumped out to me? The art of terror of the Night Lords fits well with Vlad Tepes and his inclinations to ... demonstrate... the price of opposing him.
@Ярослав Л I'll take your word for it, as I am not slav
Just gonna put this out there that the name Atramentar is like 99% influenced by the Polish word Atrament, which means writing ink, which is usually black because of course it is.
Sometimes you wonder if the Night Lords and Raven Guard swapped edgy poetry notes during the crusade.
@@VallornDeathblade They totally would have. They are both criminals and everything (the difference is that the Raven Guard reformed and Corvus is not crazy unlike Konrad).

Ok there is one thing I HAVE to add here because its actually the most 40k thing I have ever read. At 41:15 you talked about how Curze and some of the Night Lords including Sevetar teleported on the Invincible Reason, the Dark Angels flagship. Sevetar missed the teleport onto the ship because he was not with Curze at that point. Instead he, like the absolute chad he is, CLIMBED ON THE WING OF A FIGHTER AND RODE IT IN THE MIDST OF A GIANT SPACE BATTLE, BETWEEN 2 OF THE LARGEST SHIPS TO HAVE EVER BEEN BUILD BY MARS AND THEIR FLEETS, AND BOARDED THE INVINCIBLE REASON BY JUMPING OF INSIDE THE HANGAR. HE JUST HELD ON WITH ONE HAND (and his boots ofc).
That is freaking amazing lmao
LMFAO, I think that is the most 40k thing I've ever read. Ppl gotta like this so it gets seen
That's so fucking metal! 🤟
I was hoping he'd go into more detail on this and other Sevatar related stuff. Sevatar is an absolute unit at times. I know he mentioned about how he's the best duelist, but he also didn't talk about how he was oftentimes just outright BORED during his battles. Like, he'd be there swinging his chainglaive around and casually slaughtering his way through dozens of warriors with near contemptuous ease and couldn't understand why it was so easy to avoid their strikes, how everyone else seemed just so damn slow by comparison.
Cause he was also a latent psyker, which no doubt helped.
Oh and believe his duel with Sigismund (the guy he headbutted) also lasted like, 30 fucking hours. Because fucking space marines! Hopefully we get more Sevatar at some point.
Fuckin space marines man.
Given that Bricky loves both Night Lords and Guard so much, maybe he should create a renegade Guard detachment that's just troops loyal to the Night Lords. It's established that the Night Lords rely on slaves to a greater degree than most traitor legions. It would make sense for them to have regiments of human soldiers, there to employ terror tactics and hold foes down while the Night Lords swoop in for the kill.
Heck, put some dinosaur-riding Rough Riders in it. Age of Sigmar has some dino-riding dark elf models, you could kitbash some choice Rough Riders with those. Or use the vampire knight models for the kitbash, since they've got a lot of vampire imagery. Send whole detachments full of fast-moving, deep striking terror riders at your enemies.
Given the Night Lord's low numbers too, I can see some enterprising Marine raising platoons of human zealots to boost their battlefield presence.
@@Zaprozhan they do and don't for a reason. They're greatest strength is their ability to hit and run, they're weakness is low supplies and soliders. So its harder for them to replenish losses.
When they settle they rule, and they defend but it puts a target on them.

“ Sanguinius ignored the taunt. ‘Father might do worse,’ he said. He watched Curze’s face closely. ‘He might forgive you.’
He struck home. Curze’s mask of contempt fell. The unease returned. The reptilian eyes widened as they saw destiny enter a state of flux. In the storm of emotions that passed in micro-tremors over the Night Haunter, Sanguinius saw anger and doubt. He saw horror again at the thought that the universe really was not as Curze had known it to be, for so long, and so absolutely. And Sanguinius saw what he was looking for. He saw the rarest of all things in Curze’s eyes. He saw hope.
That was what he needed. That was confirmation.
He pushed Curze into the stasis coffin. The Night Haunter fell back and lay prone, helpless.
‘He might forgive you,’ Sanguinius repeated. ‘I don’t. You cannot have that redemption. I won’t let you. Rest certain in your destiny. You will have it. I am not taking you to Father.’ “
-Excerpt from Ruinstorm by David Annandale
Wait, was Sanguinius saying he won't let Curze have the chance to be forgiven by the Emperor. Was he trying to Comfort Curze or basically strike the nail in his mental Coffin?
@@gabrieloliva5069 IMO that was basically saying, "You want redemption and forgiveness? Well fuck you weirdo, enjoy your stasis".
@@gabrieloliva5069 It was Sanguinius making sure that his brother would never be allowed forgiveness.
and later in the Night Haunter novel by Guy Haley, when Curze has his little "moment" with the ephegy of the Emperor he made:
"An apology? What next, are you going to *forgive* me? Sanguinius warned me you might!"
@@gabrieloliva5069 Curze can see the future, in that one moment curze most likely SAW emps forgiving him, him turning back to the light, undoing all the crimes he had done, dying a hero's death, Sanguinius knew this and that why when he saw hope in his eyes HE GOT HIM!!! Sanguinus pretty much showed Curze the best moments of his life, then made it where HE WILL NEVER GET THAT CHANCE TO HAVE IT!!!

"Night Lords are the worst of the worst." The Emperor's Children would like a word, sir
the emperors children are wholly diluted and they don't want to interact with the nightlords.
If Bricky really is considering creating a Nightlord Army, then I would actually really love for him to actually try to kitbash them into that "Our Armor is made out of random shit we looted" aspect with Chains, Greenstuffed Cloaks covering up bits from Space Marines and such.
It sounds wonderful in a concept and I hope Bricky really does consider it for his army.
I do not know how well Bricky is versed in kitbashing and the likes, but I can even imagine something like Chaos Cultists being kitbashed to look like Slaves would be dope as fuck.
I won't lie... but if I see some random Night Lord mini with like, an adidas cloak and a soviet gas mask, I would buy it as soon as it released

TLDR: Night Lords were Chaos before it was cool.
The Night Lords trilogy makes you route for Talos Valcoran so hard that sometimes you forget how awful a person he is. Y'know, when he's not murdering and torturing. Such a well-written character, much like all the characters in that trilogy.
Bricky addresses Konrad's split personality like it's a good vs evil conflict, but I've always seen it more as a "Bad Cop, Worse Cop."
I disagree with Bricky about Curze's split personality, because it isn't really an excuse for him to do horrible shit and absolve him of guilt. Instead, it was Konrad's coping mechanism to deal with all the shit he was constantly subjected to and the horrible things he felt he had to do. The Night Haunter was to Curze what the Chaos Gods were to Lorgar; a convenient excuse to soothe his fragile ego in the face of his willingness to commit horrible atrocities. The difference is that Curze always rationalized it as 'for the Greater Good', whereas Lorgar always sought the justification of 'God is right', and despite the OVERWHELMING evidence that the Chaos Gods were evil bastards and he could just NOT serve them, he chose to serve them anyways because they were beings that were more powerful than the Emperor, possessed all the trappings of gods, and would accept Lorgar's worship and all the insanely awful shit he would do in their name.
This is a fair idea and doesn't lack merit. I think there is a lot of debate on both the nature of his upbringing, how he saw himself, how other's saw him, etc. that really can be talked back and forth for hours on end. It's one of the reasons I really like him. I don't find as much depth and complexity in many of the other Primarchs LET ALONE it being in the evil Batman one.
The fact we can even have debates on their nature is damn fun. We couldn't do the same for Rogal Dorn. Since he can't read.
@@Bricky As someone with a personality disorder curze is written perfectly to how my brain manages trauma and guilt.
@@pyerack What's worse is that he recognizes that the Chaos Gods want him to do horrible shit, things he repeatedly claims that he _doesn't_ want to do, and the daemon telling him all this greatly emphasizes that it is his choice to allow these horrible things to happen, because the choice and the significance of his sacrifice makes his offering more pleasing in the eyes of the gods. And he does it anyway, because Chaos and its parasitic connection to all life is the 'Truth', and the Chaos Gods are higher beings that he can serve under. Which is fucked up because Lorgar has said himself that he doesn't actually view anything as a 'god', but he recognizes the irrefutable power of higher beings as something worthy of the utmost respect and fidelity, which to the common man the only adequate words to describe such things are 'gods' and 'worship'. And his justification for not continuing to worship the Emperor, the one man, the one being that has managed to successfully threaten Chaos, so much so that they declare him the Anathema, their polar opposite? Because the Emperor does not want to be worshipped, but the Chaos Gods do and derive most of their power from worship.
Lorgar sold his soul to the Devil because the Devil told him he needed to pay off his landlord...
Also there is the issue that Cruze never really had any reality check when it comes to the value of life.
He was born underground, had to literally punch his way out of adamantium veins and emerged into a perpetually dark place. His first meal was to eat another human, and his only view of things was from the people he ate and their rough memories.
Unlike basically everyone else, he didn't have a mentor, he didn't have anything to ground his values to. Only thing he knew from the people he killed and ate was:
- there is crime everywhere here
- people murder one another like life has no value
- I don't quite know why but I'm compelled to find a solution
- I also have these horrible visions of the future proving to me that any action is justified if it prevents THAT from happening
This isn't really excusing him of his murderers, but rather understanding that he had a far blunter formation to humanity that basically anyone else.
@@pyerack don't forget that he was plagued with visions of the future that showed the worst possible future he could have had
"Jay Walking? Thats a Flayin'! Tax Evasion? Thats a Flayin'! Overdue Library Fees? OOOOOH DOUBLE FLAYIN'!" - Konrad Kurze probably

@Ярослав Л aaaaaand he’s gone
27:30 Yeah. It seems to be a problem with fandom in general, that they can't accept that it's possible to like someone with, or because of, their negative qualities. It's most common in the groups like Reylos and Draco stans, who really wanna fuck Adam Driver and Tom Felton, using the in-universe characters as their vector to do so. They will make countless excuses and "it wasn't so bad"s to make sure they can jack it to their favorite characters guilt-free.
People need to accept that their favorite characters can be horrible people. Often that's what makes them interesting. Stop trying to redeem someone like KONRAD FUCKING CURZE!!!!
Never seen anyone try to redeem Curze, I do see a lot of folk get annoyed with memers and the DA Community for circle-Jerking to the same meme you've seen for the 40th time, it gets especially grating when you also game with them and realise their main schtik is prevented 90% of the time.
TL;DR: Don't engage with the 40k Fandom and enjoy the lore you do. All you'll find are Loyalist Arsewipes who need to circle-Jerk about how much better their Primarch is and cry that their not getting enough Primaris Releases. Just disappointment really.

You guys forgot about the part where the nightlords come together for once as almost a full legion to recover the tape of Conrad curzes last moments, and when they start all chanting together
Part that makes my skin tingle!
Surprise, it's alpha legion spies in the nightlords
No, it's Alpha Legion agents controlling purple orks and making them hold up cardboard cut outs of alpha Legion spies dressed as Night Lords.
So if someone sees it, they think it's Night Lords, and if they investigate, they find Alpha Legion spies. But they will know that the Alpha Legion would never be caught so easily, do look further and find the hand of the Orks. Having discounted the idea of Alpha Legion, and finding Orks to blame, the inquisitor hunts down the orks and tells everyone that the Alpha Legionnaires are not real.
Therefore, the REAL Alpha Legionnaires can do whatever they want and be ignored, because "they're cardboard cut outs, and if they were real we wouldn't see them" while the entire planet looks for non existent orks. Simple!
The Night Lords are the bait, the Alpha Legion are the far too obvious trap that will be ignored, and the orks are the secret behind the trap. Having discovered a secret plot and "proven" that the Alpha Legion was not actually there, the Inquisition will not look further and will deal with the orks without uncovering the real secret plot behind it all. That is my way of doing things, for I am Alpharius. Hydra Dominatus, brother.
Why do they not like each other?
@@the_victorious_1 This too is a lie, for infact the inquisitor himself is actually an Alpha Legionaire, and has been sent to hide our actions from the Imperium. I should know of course
@@atsekaleb7 indeed, he was there to take the place of any actual inquisitors who may have otherwise invested and misdirect them. You too know this, yet that and your claimed identity prove nothing. A name is a tool to be used, nothing more.
Hydra dominatus, brother.
@@the_victorious_1 holy shit.
I'm happy the 40k community now has their 5th Night Lords player
"Yay we beat the Night Lords!!!!"
The Night Lords: "It's raining men!!! Hallelujah it's raining men! Amen!"
When they talk of "Forget me juice" the only thing that comes to mind is a straight shot of turpentine
Nah, Everclear with a few roofies tossed in.
56:40 Actually it was Curze who picked the choice of tactics. 8th legion was originally a skirmishing legion but also performed tactics similar to the Ravenguard. So the death of Curze was tge death of the Nightlords.
As a Slav, I'd love to voice a Night Lord
Agreed im a croat myself what are you serb pole Ukrainian Slovene czech?
Kurze: commits heinous war crimes and gets compliance from terrorist attacks
Emperor: hmmm gonna have to put lorgar down
Damn they really bamboozled us this time
Die as you lived, Sons of the Eighth- In Midnight Clad. Ave Dominus Nox! Also, glad you loved the Nightlords omnibus. Literally my favorite book series.
I'm reading the Alpharius book right now. Alpharius is now my second favorite primarch. He reminds me of Big Boss from Metal Gear Solid 3. DK, I'm a Dark Angel guy, The whole thing with us is interesting. Trust me the Dark Angels had access to stuff the Emperor would never trust other Legions or Primarchs with. "Loyalty is it's own reward"
The people on the planet that the Night Lords orbitet:
"They are just standing there... MENACINGLY!"
YES night lords my favourite murder boys get more attention Ave Dominus Nox
I am alpharius omegon

You're a fraud

I like how Bricky works in things he learned from the Nightlords omnibus during this episode, like how Nostraman sounds and works and Talos’ memories as an illustration for how unbelievably brutal life was.
I'm surprised how few people mention the Apocalypse Now/Heart of Darkness connection to night lords and Kurze. It's very strong
Bricky can you forget about the tech priest on the night Lords ship? One of my favorite quotes of the night Lords omnibus is someone talking to the tech priest and saying that you are still a human because only a human can do fear like that. Love all the episodes that you have posted. Love listening to you tell DK all the stories. Can't wait to hear DK do another episode where he talks about the subject. Keep on the awesome work.
Sevitar's believed to be dead, but his body was never found/recovered?
Has anybody checked Trazyn the Infinite's Vault recently? I wouldn't put it past our trollboy Pokémaster to have the guy, and a bunch of other Nightlords, in his collection.
I mean he done some feats fucked up or not. Literally cucked the Sigismund with a headbutt to get his ass over. And gets to be more likeable to Conrad Curze.
fan fiction that i want to be true :
Yeah Sev was alive after the siege of Terra, he and loyal Night Lords went to make a nice little chapter called to Carcharodons, fuck Raven Guard
Baldemort intro to the Night Lords is a masterpice, you should look into it
How mature my friend.
The fact that Curze, a full sized primarch in power armour, managed to basically play hide and seek for MONTHS on a flipping space ship is just SO funny to me :D
Briky is like looking at a picture of Curze and thinking to himself : "that smile... That god damned smile..."
I believe Sevatar has two of his own stories that I can remember; there's Prince of Crows and The Long Night. Both are fairly short and you don't really need to know the greater narrative of the heresy novels to get what's going on, you can kind of just jump in.
This podcast has probably made the Night Lords my favorite lore-wise. That quote from Sevatar gets me throbbing.

what's that PfP by the way?
@@henrypaleveda7760I think it's the main character from the Jackie Chan Adventures cartoon
Every episode I click on the merch link before anything to see if the Mechanicus hoodie came out.
MECHANICUS WHEN BRICKY?
That bit about the Night Lords using fear to end the conflict faster reminds me of one of my favorite bits from Dragon Age Inquisition. When asked about his profession, the Necromancer trainer will ask a mage Inquisitor if he wants people to fear him.
The trainer goes on to say that fear is good. Fear means people stop fighting faster. Fear means less people to fight next time. Fear means that more people live.
It's honestly a very cool take on fear tactics, and especially interesting take on Necromancy as a whole.
So, does this mean the Oil Margarita is going to be an actual drink?
*Daring memes to ASCEND!*
31:30 that quote made my skin crawl
The way I always see it, and I'm saying this as a Night Lords fan, is that they were made to be the terror tactics legion but no one forced them to enjoy it so much.

Give me the Emperor's death angels!, the first Legion!, The Sons of the lion!, the exterminators! GIVE ME THE DARK ANGELS OR YOU WILL DISAPPEAR FROM THE PAGES OF HISTORY !!!
When I heard do you respect your balls, I was expecting a dollar shave club ad
“We are the sons of the only Primarch to HATE his own legion!” Angron would like a word.

Forget-Me-Juice. A double shot of tequila, a double shot of vodka, a double shot of absinthe, and a triple shot of Bailey's for looks
Sanguinius was the one brother that cared for Konrad and tried to help him. This is why Konrad wanted Sanguinius to grudge him cause he was the only pure brother in his eyes on Macragge before the Imperium Secundus was dissolved. I know Sanguinius see's both visions and Konrad does see both but mainly the bad visions.
