Also on the thing about Shallya; nothing prevents a follower of Shallya to be accompanied by, say, a follower of Ulric. You know, in case they happen to meet a chaos worshiper. Just because the peace and love cult isn't supposed to deliver righteous vengeance doesn't mean their friend can't.

Sigmar wasn't much of a womanizer, he's only ever been with two women. One was the love of his life who died and he vowed never to love another woman after her, and the other was a warrior-queen who he slept with to get her to join the Empire and was purely done as a political move (which resulted in Sigmar's secret line of descendants who Volkmar is the last survivor of). Though there is a noticeable hypocrisy in that the Priests of Sigmar all shave their heads when Sigmar himself grew his hair out.

Ranald's ascension is almost at the level of Cayden Cailean from Pathfinder. Long story short, in the main metropolis of the setting there is a stone that you can touch to become a god after you pass a trial. He went out drinking with his friends and woke up as a god with a hangover. Let me state again, he went on a drunken bender, followed by a missing scene and woke up as a god.
@@MegaGothrocker I started with Pathfinder recently and mostly only through the information on Archive of Nethys. If Paizo has some extra lore books I would love to get them.
@@theliato3809 Ranald was the god of luck, trickery, fortune, mischief, and freedom, as well as being the god of thieves and tricksters. Also adds some context to ranalds bones from vermintide. Makes sense that the god of trickery would have a dice game made for him.
Khaine being considered a classical god despite him being an elf god just feels like he snuck in and is wearing the disguises you see lego characters wear when you enable disguises and you can tell just who is behind that poor attempt at a disguise. And while, yes, due to some humans worshipping him classifies him as a classical god, I can't help but imagine it's him trying to branch out from eldar on eldar violence and into different markets to compete with Khorne's monopoly as he wears a thinly veil that is his disguise as he attends the meeting of classical gods and he paid Mor 20 bucks to lie and say he's his brother to the other classical gods
@@spartanx9293 That was strongly implied in the Tome of Salvation from the 2nd edition of WFRP. There's mentions of Taal and Rhya having formerly been worshipped under names that were pretty clearly variations of Isha and Kernous, an old fable that's a garbled version of an elven legend where Verena is performing a deed that would be normally associated with Hoeth, and so on - I think there might even be the odd mention of the Lizardmen gods in those old fables as well. However, there's also a passage where a human scholar has noted that the Elves say they were created by the Old Ones and by their gods, asked a High Elf scholar he was in correspondence with to help resolve the discrepancy, and the High Elf responded with something along the lines of "both accounts are correct, but the Old Ones are not the same as the gods of my people". Which is something I tend to interpret as the Old Ones having performed the physical act of creation, but the Elven gods shaped their culture. My personal interpretation is that just as the gods can fuse together, they can also split apart. So Tepok is the original wisdom figure, and in addition to the actual physical Old One, there is also an entity in the warp that is Tepok as worshipped by the Lizardmen, which might now have little resemblance to the original Tepok. Hoeth was inspired from the Elven perspective of Tepok, but they imagined the deity of wisdom in their own image and with more of their own values, so a second version split off. Finally, the human god of wisdom could have split off either from Hoeth, or from humanity's own garbled perspective of Tepok. (The latter might be more likely in this case, since the original Tepok's gender being undefined allows elves and humans to independently assign different genders to their respective deities of knowledge.)
Fun fact; Khaine first appeared as a "lesser" Chaos God called Kaine in 2nd edition's Warhammer Armies, where the Witch Elves were actually the Dark Elven priestesses of Chaos as a whole. The idea that Khaine might be an elven name for Khorne first appeared in 4th edition, and floated back and forth until 7e or 8e, when the Cadai and Cytharai elven pantheons were introduced to the lore.
Interestingly, there's evidence that the story of Ranald's ascension is another one of his tricks. It's from an older TTRPG book, Second Edition's Tome of Salvation, but it's interesting and personally I like how it muddies the waters in a way fitting for a trickster god. It goes like this: And I said: Can you tell me the tale of Ranald, and how he achieved godhood? And the child replied: Yes. The Greatest Trick. A well-known tale. Ranaldans claim that, when mortal, Ranald was a bandit; a gentle soul who robbed from the rich and gave to the poor. This so enchanted Shallya that she fell in love, ensnared by the romance of Ranald's deeds. One night, when distributing supplies to victims of the Fly Lord, Ranald fell dreadfully ill, and was approached by Morr. Shallya could not bear the loss of her love, so she stole Ranald from her father's grasp in the only way she knew how: she let him drink from her holy Chalice, and granted him immortality. Ranald, now a god, laughed at Shallya's naivety. He admitted to the crying goddess that he had never been sick at all, and that he had manipulated her from the beginning. And I said: So, the tale is true? And the child replied: No. It is false.

@Nomadic_ Gaming Fantasy is leaps and bounds above the other 2 for my favourite WH setting, but there have been a lot of retcons and different authors having different interpretations of Fantasy. The most concise and airtight(for GW) setting is AOS.
@@Nomadic_Gaming I kinda wonder how much of that is WHF just taking its own spin on western fantasy vs 40K starting out as a more paradoxical in space deal then getting more serious and having to figure out a lot of its sci fi cosmology long after the fact
I am the only person listening to this while standing out in the frigid snow, tending to livestock… I would worship a chaos God if it meant not having to do this
Freezing in a west texas solar farm...I vote we go for Slaanesh. Get the goods of all the others and still not look to bad while we do. Who else agrees?
There were elven colonies all over the place, and elven gods aren't that above dealing with humans. It might be that even nehekharans somehow contacted Asuryan and Lileath, of all gods.
You know I think a Warhammer Fantasy RPG in the style of the Elder Scrolls games would do well. Maybe with a slightly different leveling and enemy scaling system. Choose your race, choose which alignment you start with Chaos/Order. And your country of origin. Then go out on an adventure and hopefully survive with your limbs, soul, and sanity intact. Maybe party with Gotrek and Felix for a side quest or two.
That ending bit reminds me of a campaign idea I had where someone (originally the party when it was a one-shot pitch) messed with a group of Kuo-toa bad enough to pray into existence a world ending monster (was going to be Leviathan) and now the party has work with a second group of Kuo-toa quickly to get them to bring into being a beast that can kill the first one.
My favorite interpretations of the Renald ascension is that Shallya was like, 99% certain that Renald was lying about being sick. Which would fit in the theme of Shallya being merciful to a fault, but naive in a way that isn't dumb: cause like, being the god of healing and treating disease would probs like give her SOME insight into if Renald was sick with Nurglitis or not via supernatural means. This isn't to say that Renald was bad at the con, far from it, he was beyond amazing to make the LITERAL GODDESS OF HEALING have even a sliver of doubt that he was actually sick, and knew her nature enough that this one percent of doubt was enough for her to not risk it. He read his mark, called her reaction, and got what he wanted without any bad blood from the tricked. Even if that last bit is because Shallya is merciful as a job description, still my favorite way of understanding how a man can trick a god.
Now, if Shallya is so merciful and can just give one eternal life (not even talking about divine powers), why doesn't she just do that? Either she doesn't have the power (lost or never had in the first place), or she doesn't want to for some very important reason.
@SMT-ks8yp it's actually explained in lore funnily enough! Now this may not be a fully accurate recalling/retelling but from what I understand; Since Shallya is ghe child of Morr (God of the dead), and Shallya constantly suffers from the suffering of the mortals: Morr has to do two things: 1) Advise her that she has to limit how many people she personally intervenes to help, such that they avoid the case where nobody dies anymore which would lead to its own can of worms.. 2) he can't visit her often, because he legit felt himself folding on rule 1 when seeing how much sorrow his daughter was feeling, so he stays away from her alot so he doesn't break his own domain This, from only what I can assume, is used to explain why Shallya doesn't CONSTANTLY intervene constantly (mandate from her father) and also why she can intervene at all to prevent some deaths (her father can't/doesn't constantly monitor her for the above reasons, or he folds from time to time sometimes when he catches her)
I think it was scorpions that are Khaine's symbol. Interestingly the Nehekharan god of murders Sokth is also represented by Scorpions. Whether or not that means anything we can only guess.
kruber stop giving pusfume the internet router, last time he was allowed to browse the web we had to give him therapy for weeks after he stumbled upon deviantart.
Hot take: Handrich is actually a chaos god. He has an aspect of telling his followers to go out and outsteal... I mean outdeal everyone including their fellow cultists, and if they fail, well, tough luck. If you look at the Big Four, their followers also furiously fight each other for attention of their gods and strip themselves of everything that doesn't help in getting it, even when it comes to supposedly chill Nurgle. And even if it isn't true, it sounds like a good reason to take back Marienburg and crack down on these burghers who try to buy their way into politics.
I really hope we get a video featuring the best god of Old Warhammer, Ursun. God of bears whose primary blessing is bear. To be fair, Kislev makes good use of that.
If GW had worked on more of the early history of humanity on 40k I wouldn’t be surprised to see them add the old and new gods as fellow dieties of humanity that hung out with the Number 1 Mom and Dad duo.
Pancreas, since the new Phoenix Lord of the Warp Spiders were revealed awhile ago, Im sure your preparing the inevitable Video on the Phoenix Lords when the new codex comes out, Right?
Oh yea, there's the Ancient Roman Empire in Warhammer. Guess what Pancreas, they even referenced that Celts used to live across Bretonnia, the lands of the Empire and Albion. One can imagine how that went between the Celts and the Remans.
"Justice trumps the law, because it's the spirit rather than the letter that matters", "It's not their duty to judge who isn't and is deserving of Shallya's mercy - only to deliver it", "Do what you must, but when the enemy surrenders, you must treat them well", "No honour amongst thieves, but there is among Ranaldens". I'm genuinely shocked that Warhammer has a pantheon of gods that can be considered morally good (Aside from that last one). Warhammer! Of all things!
Shallya mentioned! My Scout had her as her primary goddess, serving as the moral compass to the traditional psychopaths you'd find in a Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay party and was such a rare patch of noblebrightness that it helped keep us from getting TOO taken advantage of. Even if she was a bit of a Bretonniaboo, but when you come from the Outla-I mean Border Princes it's difficult to not have AN opinion on them. A funny bit about how that campaign ended, we had hunted down an exiled dark elf after she was doing some Slaaneshi fleshshaping shit with the local Beastmen. We found out she'd killed and pickled the local count's wife in order to use scraps of her body to magically pose as her, and after some verbal finesse to not get framed for that crime by her, we had the count's entire guard coming down on her as she spammed out spells left and right. As we had her cornered my character gave a short prayer to Shallya that if Morr's death can be merciful than let this mercy be granted so even such a warped soul need not suffer further torment and torture. She missed, the elf got gunned down, and slowly suffocated to death from a collapsed lung and drowning in her own blood. Shallya absolutely has lines of who does and does not deserve mercy.
With how much it felt like they were building up Sienna's reverence for Myrmidia throughout Vermintide 2, I was really hoping we would get a kickass Paladin of Myrmidia Sienna as a dlc career. I'm sure there's an actual unit name that would be used, but I don't play tabletop so I wouldn't know it. Instead, she has half her personality shunted away and replaced with her sisters and she becomes a necromancer. Fat L, Fat Shark.
I just want to give a shout out to the warhammer fantasy roleplay book. Theyve done more to revive warhammer fantasy than even total warhammer but the books also delve into areas previously left void. In earlier printing of the rpg they barely gave the other gods a page but 4th has gone and made careers (classes for thise who wrent familiar) to most dieties so far.
Me hearing about Renald: is he Cayden Cailean? Because he kinda sounds like him No drunken fortitude to godhood (Cayden drunkenly stumbled upon an artifatct in a dungeon that gave him godhood, dodging deathly traps and encounters, no kidding) but still....
Mr Pancreas, with the announcement of the Gundam Assemble tabletop wargame making Gundam tangentially related to Warhammer, I now demand a series of Gundam lore videos, specifically on Newtypes and those bastards at Anaheim Electronics
Heck yeah, I was just rewatching the Old Gods video the other day.wondering about the next installment. Super excited to start watching TIL Warhammer Fantasy RPG is still being published. Funny, literally yesterday I was wondering why the Skaven Wars books mentioned humans invoking Khaine. This video had fantastic timing
Now im imagining a twin duo in a wh rpg game where one is a healer of shallya and the other is a worrior of myrmidia and they travel around battlefields helping anyone who will take it and they work with the loosing army as commanders as long as their morals are true. And over the years they become a legend that ties the two gods together as a Artemis and apolo type twin saints idea.
I love the idea of the God of Trade being a re4 merchant-type person, someone who you just happen to deal with every once in a while and rewards fair offers with generous offers. The Indian guys who run the newsagents just casually being minor deities
Every damn time I see one of Pancreas's WHF videos I remember that I bought the Warhammer Fantasy RPG Humble Bundle and that I should read the books... Now more than ever since he mentioned it like 4 times
Not even joking when i say i didnt know there were other human gods other than Sigmar, which imo is indicative of how shit of a job GW does and why The Empire needs to not be the fantasy equivalent of Ultramarines (narratively, obviously)
Called Khaine - mostly because I have the relevant 2nd edition WFRP sourcebook. Which, incidentally, also strongly implied that the elven and human gods were the same pantheon through different lenses (which becomes interesting when you consider that this includes the deity of wisdom and the deity of death switching genders, but since they BOTH switch genders it can still be presented as a conventional relationship), but GW evidently decided to take a different route with the End Times. Incidentally, go back far enough and Khaine being Khorne wasn't just implied - around the time the Witch Elves were first released, there was an article about how the Witch Elves were part of a Khorne cult which had been taking over Dark Elf society from the decadent Slaanesh-worshippers among the old Dark Elf nobility, driving the Dark Elves into a new wave of aggression against the Sea Elves (which back then were still semi-distinct from the High Elves). Which is why, if you find Witch Elf models that are old enough, some of them have the symbol of Khaine on them.
honestly i think this was a better call because old lore dark elves all but openly worshipped slaanesh with morathi's pleasure cults, so honestly khaine being either a mask of khorne, or some shard of khorne proper makes more sense. i honestly always thought about an end times scenario for the dark elves where they become a part of chaos's great game, with morathi and such obviously becoming slaanesh cultists, while malakith hates this decadence and uses khorne worship to counteract this. chaos in fantasy isn't as unhinged as in 40k. for the most part you can be a sane individual and still receive chaos's benefits. malekiths unending hate for the high elves and slaanesh worhship honestly would make him a prime candidate to become a lord of khorne to some degree
I always liked the idea that Khorne and Khaine share something. Perhaps it was Khorne trying to influence the elves but something got lost in translation. Perhaps they were the same thing once in the primordial long, long ago but split at some point with Khaine being molded by the Elves/Elven gods.
15:45 this makes me feel that all 3 empire sanctioned war gods are represented in the "what to do with captives screen" in total war warhammer 3. Ulric is barbaric so he kills them, Myrmidia is merciful so she pardons them, and I don't really need to explain the "PRAISE SIGMAR" option

its a far and above more cohesive setting and thanks to this channel i now love it more then 40k
@Nomadic_ Gaming Fantasy is leaps and bounds above the other 2 for my favourite WH setting, but there have been a lot of retcons and different authors having different interpretations of Fantasy. The most concise and airtight(for GW) setting is AOS.
@@Nomadic_Gaming I kinda wonder how much of that is WHF just taking its own spin on western fantasy vs 40K starting out as a more paradoxical in space deal then getting more serious and having to figure out a lot of its sci fi cosmology long after the fact

I am the only person listening to this while standing out in the frigid snow, tending to livestock… I would worship a chaos God if it meant not having to do this
Bad work conditions is the only valid reason to worship chaos
@@Bosshuntman What about Daddy issues?
I'm standing in freezing rain while tending to livestock, does that count?
Freezing in a west texas solar farm...I vote we go for Slaanesh. Get the goods of all the others and still not look to bad while we do. Who else agrees?

The Elve and human gods partially overlapping is very interesting not only with Kaine but also with the similiarities between Manann and Mathlann
It also happens in real life. There a few so many religion in China, japan, korea and Vietnam where Jesus is part of that relgion pantheons
There were elven colonies all over the place, and elven gods aren't that above dealing with humans. It might be that even nehekharans somehow contacted Asuryan and Lileath, of all gods.
You know I think a Warhammer Fantasy RPG in the style of the Elder Scrolls games would do well. Maybe with a slightly different leveling and enemy scaling system. Choose your race, choose which alignment you start with Chaos/Order. And your country of origin.
Then go out on an adventure and hopefully survive with your limbs, soul, and sanity intact.
Maybe party with Gotrek and Felix for a side quest or two.
Sounds like a crpg would work better especially since the genre's had a bit of a mainstream revival with bg3
So THAT'S who's upgrading my loot at the end of vermintide 2 matches
the Warhammer Fantasy fake out immediately followed by an ad read is truly devious, nice work
Learning of Shallya’s fate has further fuelled my disdain for the end times
You had me in the first half of the Myrmidia part, but then you mentioned the Geneva convention
If Jerek von Carstein can serve Ulrich and not be burned by his flame, I think Abhorash serving Myrmidia is fine
@PancreasNoWork check out this nerd lmao
That ending bit reminds me of a campaign idea I had where someone (originally the party when it was a one-shot pitch) messed with a group of Kuo-toa bad enough to pray into existence a world ending monster (was going to be Leviathan) and now the party has work with a second group of Kuo-toa quickly to get them to bring into being a beast that can kill the first one.
I listened to the entire Gotrek and Felix series on your recommendation. No regrets
Except for Snorri, he had regrets.
My favorite interpretations of the Renald ascension is that Shallya was like, 99% certain that Renald was lying about being sick. Which would fit in the theme of Shallya being merciful to a fault, but naive in a way that isn't dumb: cause like, being the god of healing and treating disease would probs like give her SOME insight into if Renald was sick with Nurglitis or not via supernatural means.
This isn't to say that Renald was bad at the con, far from it, he was beyond amazing to make the LITERAL GODDESS OF HEALING have even a sliver of doubt that he was actually sick, and knew her nature enough that this one percent of doubt was enough for her to not risk it. He read his mark, called her reaction, and got what he wanted without any bad blood from the tricked. Even if that last bit is because Shallya is merciful as a job description, still my favorite way of understanding how a man can trick a god.
Now, if Shallya is so merciful and can just give one eternal life (not even talking about divine powers), why doesn't she just do that? Either she doesn't have the power (lost or never had in the first place), or she doesn't want to for some very important reason.
@SMT-ks8yp it's actually explained in lore funnily enough! Now this may not be a fully accurate recalling/retelling but from what I understand; Since Shallya is ghe child of Morr (God of the dead), and Shallya constantly suffers from the suffering of the mortals: Morr has to do two things:
1) Advise her that she has to limit how many people she personally intervenes to help, such that they avoid the case where nobody dies anymore which would lead to its own can of worms..
2) he can't visit her often, because he legit felt himself folding on rule 1 when seeing how much sorrow his daughter was feeling, so he stays away from her alot so he doesn't break his own domain
This, from only what I can assume, is used to explain why Shallya doesn't CONSTANTLY intervene constantly (mandate from her father) and also why she can intervene at all to prevent some deaths (her father can't/doesn't constantly monitor her for the above reasons, or he folds from time to time sometimes when he catches her)
@@BlueOddyssey sounds reasonable... unless we can just point at elves. And we, apparently, can't because warhammer elves age, if slowly. Sad.
I think it was scorpions that are Khaine's symbol. Interestingly the Nehekharan god of murders Sokth is also represented by Scorpions. Whether or not that means anything we can only guess.
OK fine, I'll take a break from my high elf campaign to watch a yt video. Teclis can take a break from his CBT
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy?!!
I think he meant CQB: Close Quarter Combat but the phone auto corrected to the wrong thing 👍of it ain’t that then idk
Either seems equally likely.
I just spent 30 minutes listening to a man describe in great detail his collection of pre-war Hummel figurines.
That's how it felt.
khaine worshiped by humans has scorpion as a symbol not a spider, it is mentioned in archives of the empire volume III
"Wait, theres more gods than just the chaos ones and the God Emperor? HERESY!"
All other god-things inferior to the glorious Horned Rat, yes-yes!
Hey ratass, i think i saw a lanky blond haired guy And a dwarf behind a nearby corner.
The dwarf was muttering something about boats and elves.
kruber stop giving pusfume the internet router, last time he was allowed to browse the web we had to give him therapy for weeks after he stumbled upon deviantart.
Hot take: Handrich is actually a chaos god. He has an aspect of telling his followers to go out and outsteal... I mean outdeal everyone including their fellow cultists, and if they fail, well, tough luck. If you look at the Big Four, their followers also furiously fight each other for attention of their gods and strip themselves of everything that doesn't help in getting it, even when it comes to supposedly chill Nurgle.
And even if it isn't true, it sounds like a good reason to take back Marienburg and crack down on these burghers who try to buy their way into politics.
Marienburg belongs to Nordland, and by my decree, they shall have it back. Also, no more nation breaking tolls for sending the First Fleet to sea.
I really hope we get a video featuring the best god of Old Warhammer, Ursun. God of bears whose primary blessing is bear. To be fair, Kislev makes good use of that.
Now how many of these could have existed in 40k and got turned into Primarchs by the Emperor.
If GW had worked on more of the early history of humanity on 40k I wouldn’t be surprised to see them add the old and new gods as fellow dieties of humanity that hung out with the Number 1 Mom and Dad duo.
Probably none. If they were around, the Imperium wouldn't be such a shithole.
@ coulda been lost in the warp or hanging around isolated worlds
ulric turning into leman russ honestly would explain why the space wolves fetishize wolves so much
Nice vid Panc really enjoyed it. Something about the editing is really satisfying I think. Perfect amount of music.
Pancreas, since the new Phoenix Lord of the Warp Spiders were revealed awhile ago, Im sure your preparing the inevitable Video on the Phoenix Lords when the new codex comes out, Right?
thats like asking roanoke to do a vid about a monster based on an angler fish
Oh yea, there's the Ancient Roman Empire in Warhammer. Guess what Pancreas, they even referenced that Celts used to live across Bretonnia, the lands of the Empire and Albion. One can imagine how that went between the Celts and the Remans.
"Justice trumps the law, because it's the spirit rather than the letter that matters", "It's not their duty to judge who isn't and is deserving of Shallya's mercy - only to deliver it", "Do what you must, but when the enemy surrenders, you must treat them well", "No honour amongst thieves, but there is among Ranaldens". I'm genuinely shocked that Warhammer has a pantheon of gods that can be considered morally good (Aside from that last one). Warhammer! Of all things!
Dude exactly! Non-dickhead gods are my jam! This is one of my fav vids of old pancman.
honestly its kinda why i prefer fantasy over 40k. not everyone is completely evil all the time, and it actually feels like there is a reason to fight.
Shallya mentioned! My Scout had her as her primary goddess, serving as the moral compass to the traditional psychopaths you'd find in a Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay party and was such a rare patch of noblebrightness that it helped keep us from getting TOO taken advantage of. Even if she was a bit of a Bretonniaboo, but when you come from the Outla-I mean Border Princes it's difficult to not have AN opinion on them.
A funny bit about how that campaign ended, we had hunted down an exiled dark elf after she was doing some Slaaneshi fleshshaping shit with the local Beastmen. We found out she'd killed and pickled the local count's wife in order to use scraps of her body to magically pose as her, and after some verbal finesse to not get framed for that crime by her, we had the count's entire guard coming down on her as she spammed out spells left and right. As we had her cornered my character gave a short prayer to Shallya that if Morr's death can be merciful than let this mercy be granted so even such a warped soul need not suffer further torment and torture. She missed, the elf got gunned down, and slowly suffocated to death from a collapsed lung and drowning in her own blood. Shallya absolutely has lines of who does and does not deserve mercy.

This comment got a heart from pancreas no work/pancreas will never work.
Nooo!! Your edit removed the heart! 😢
This will be amazing to watch as i paint a model
I am as down bad for Mymida now as Pancreas is for Morathi. Thanks for that dude.
nah ulrikia and Elspeth where its at
love it how youre making a nearly sole (cant forget sotek) stand of warhammer fantasy lore against the 40k tide, keep it up :)
I'm glad that you continue to make content about Warhammer Fantasy.
Yo dude you should do a video about wow legion vs chaos!
With how much it felt like they were building up Sienna's reverence for Myrmidia throughout Vermintide 2, I was really hoping we would get a kickass Paladin of Myrmidia Sienna as a dlc career. I'm sure there's an actual unit name that would be used, but I don't play tabletop so I wouldn't know it. Instead, she has half her personality shunted away and replaced with her sisters and she becomes a necromancer. Fat L, Fat Shark.
In the Empire, 'Paladin of Myrmidia' would be a Knight of the Blazing Sun. Which was playable in the Warhammer MMO.
@@Draxynnic Sienna, Knight of the Blazing Sun. Fuckin' perfection. Toss the fuckin' Necromancer and ship the Knight.
I just want to give a shout out to the warhammer fantasy roleplay book. Theyve done more to revive warhammer fantasy than even total warhammer but the books also delve into areas previously left void. In earlier printing of the rpg they barely gave the other gods a page but 4th has gone and made careers (classes for thise who wrent familiar) to most dieties so far.
Me hearing about Renald: is he Cayden Cailean?
Because he kinda sounds like him
No drunken fortitude to godhood (Cayden drunkenly stumbled upon an artifatct in a dungeon that gave him godhood, dodging deathly traps and encounters, no kidding) but still....
1:07 you did better than that. You tricked a 40k fan into thinking this was about Age of Sigmar
I have a Ranald pendant irl, the God of thieves and liars provides.
Mr Pancreas, with the announcement of the Gundam Assemble tabletop wargame making Gundam tangentially related to Warhammer, I now demand a series of Gundam lore videos, specifically on Newtypes and those bastards at Anaheim Electronics
so many channels that do gundam are gunna have a field day when that drops
also asmogan i imagine
Eyyy, another RWBY reference! Also, I would probably worship the first three Goddesses seeing as they're among the nicer ones.
Huh? Which one? Must've missed it...
@@olafgurke4699 IT was the image of Roman Totchwick as a kind of stand in for Ranald. That's all
@@justinisp9361 Ah, yeah, that one. Rip Roman, he was done dirty.
Finally. I've been waiting for months on end just for this exact video.
Finally now my whfrpg character can pray to canonical gods at inopportune moments 😈
Any chance we get to see a video on the dwarf gods, I kinda wanna know what Grimnir did during the end times after the end of Gotrek and Felix
I’ve been waiting for more of this series
Ah, yes, my favorite deity and her followers.
Katya, Rosy Palmer, and The Five Sisters.
JOKE'S ON YOU, I'M A 40K FAN AND FIGURED THIS WAS FANTASY
Settra The God that we are still waiting for.
Happy first video of the year pancreas.
"Summoning your lone elector count" lol
Heck yeah, I was just rewatching the Old Gods video the other day.wondering about the next installment. Super excited to start watching
TIL Warhammer Fantasy RPG is still being published.
Funny, literally yesterday I was wondering why the Skaven Wars books mentioned humans invoking Khaine. This video had fantastic timing
Man I love it when you talk about elves vids are always better when your passionate about the topic. Go off Elf King
Now im imagining a twin duo in a wh rpg game where one is a healer of shallya and the other is a worrior of myrmidia and they travel around battlefields helping anyone who will take it and they work with the loosing army as commanders as long as their morals are true. And over the years they become a legend that ties the two gods together as a Artemis and apolo type twin saints idea.
Hirez artists are undefeated man. I never get over getting flashbamged by Smite card art in videos like this
HELL YEAH, PANCREAS I CANNOT DESCRIBE HOW MUCH I LOVE HEARING YOU RAMBLE ABOUT SHIT!
I'm prepping a campaign for this summer so this series is really awesome. Even if I wasn't it's just interesting.
Erm, what the Sigmar?

Always did like Roman's look! Dude also always reminds me of better times...
I love the idea of the God of Trade being a re4 merchant-type person, someone who you just happen to deal with every once in a while and rewards fair offers with generous offers. The Indian guys who run the newsagents just casually being minor deities
Myrmidia had me until Geneva suggestion...
I would love for you to cover the gods in Elder Scrolls, or really anything in Elder Scrolls. I loved your videos on that bonkers universe
I miss Setra.
Settra will not miss you (rolls a six to hit).
Well… you did successfully tricked me into watching a warhammer fantasy video, well done.
So, there's a goddess of... Lovemaking, and her name is just plain old "Katya"? Is that just the name of a gf/crush of one of the lore writers?
Not gonna lie, 18:16 I got confused at this point and thought I misclicked mid-video onto one about Elder Scrolls lore.
I'm hardcore into 40k, but I love AoS, old world , fantasy as well . Proceed good sir!
Never would have expected a RWBY reference but I suppose miracles haven't left this world
Happy first video of the new year
This is your friendly reminder that technically you haven’t made a Tyrion video yet
Awesome, a new one. I just started WHF lore and have been binging. Think you could make a Fantasy specific playlist? I'm kinda burnt out on 40k
Will u talk about the Dwarf Gods next?
Every damn time I see one of Pancreas's WHF videos I remember that I bought the Warhammer Fantasy RPG Humble Bundle and that I should read the books... Now more than ever since he mentioned it like 4 times
Not even joking when i say i didnt know there were other human gods other than Sigmar, which imo is indicative of how shit of a job GW does and why The Empire needs to not be the fantasy equivalent of Ultramarines (narratively, obviously)
As a fellow History degree owner i love this video a lot xD
Praise be to the God-Emperor another PancreasNoWork video!
Called Khaine - mostly because I have the relevant 2nd edition WFRP sourcebook. Which, incidentally, also strongly implied that the elven and human gods were the same pantheon through different lenses (which becomes interesting when you consider that this includes the deity of wisdom and the deity of death switching genders, but since they BOTH switch genders it can still be presented as a conventional relationship), but GW evidently decided to take a different route with the End Times.
Incidentally, go back far enough and Khaine being Khorne wasn't just implied - around the time the Witch Elves were first released, there was an article about how the Witch Elves were part of a Khorne cult which had been taking over Dark Elf society from the decadent Slaanesh-worshippers among the old Dark Elf nobility, driving the Dark Elves into a new wave of aggression against the Sea Elves (which back then were still semi-distinct from the High Elves). Which is why, if you find Witch Elf models that are old enough, some of them have the symbol of Khaine on them.
honestly i think this was a better call because old lore dark elves all but openly worshipped slaanesh with morathi's pleasure cults, so honestly khaine being either a mask of khorne, or some shard of khorne proper makes more sense.
i honestly always thought about an end times scenario for the dark elves where they become a part of chaos's great game, with morathi and such obviously becoming slaanesh cultists, while malakith hates this decadence and uses khorne worship to counteract this.
chaos in fantasy isn't as unhinged as in 40k. for the most part you can be a sane individual and still receive chaos's benefits. malekiths unending hate for the high elves and slaanesh worhship honestly would make him a prime candidate to become a lord of khorne to some degree
If Myrmidia and Sigmar do the thing together, what would the result look like?
The top 3 gods are Morr, Gork and Mork, yes?
Oh hey he got back into it! Wa wondering if he was going to drop it like Pancreas’s blood sugar/j.
Sorry if this was insensitive, I will delete it if you want me to.
Ok fine, I'll watch another vid from this Elgi earlicker...
I always liked the idea that Khorne and Khaine share something. Perhaps it was Khorne trying to influence the elves but something got lost in translation. Perhaps they were the same thing once in the primordial long, long ago but split at some point with Khaine being molded by the Elves/Elven gods.
17:10 The Great Horned Rat would like a word
Bro, summoning your own Elector Count fucking killed me😂😂😂
15:45 this makes me feel that all 3 empire sanctioned war gods are represented in the "what to do with captives screen" in total war warhammer 3. Ulric is barbaric so he kills them, Myrmidia is merciful so she pardons them, and I don't really need to explain the "PRAISE SIGMAR" option
