You already know how to please the Machine Gods at this point so thank you so much. And make your voices heard for which faction you would like to see next!
-Isyander
Welcome to the dark and mysterious world of the Inquisition in Warhammer 40k, where secrecy, power, and loyalty to the Emperor are paramount. In this deep dive, we explore the Inquisition, a pivotal and enigmatic force within the Warhammer 40k universe.
We will cover the Inquisitors role in safeguarding the Imperium of Man from heretics, mutants, the taint of Chaos, and alien threats. Discover how they operate outside the standard administrative hierarchy, answering only to the Emperor himself.
Their various factions within the Inquisition, including the various Ordos and their specialized focus areas. Understand the ideological differences that separate Puritan Inquisitors from their Radical counterparts.
Explore the composition of an Inquisitor's retinue, including their trusted and often uniquely skilled companions. From Psykers to hardened warriors, each member plays a vital role in the Inquisitor's quest.
Trace the origins of the Inquisition back to the aftermath of the Horus Heresy, and see how their history has shaped their current role in the 41st Millennium.

"What is your reasoning for declaring exterminatus on Terra?"
"There's a powerful psyker on Holy Terra. He's also a mutant. He denies the Emperor's divinity. HE'S SITTING ON THE GOLDEN THRONE RIGHT NOW!"
This is a lovely piece of how they think
Jensen, Shepard’s gone insane
If I remember correctly, in the books where the ynnari arrive and resurrect Guilliman, Inquisitor Greyfax had to convince him not to upend the inquisition system, with the argument essentially being “it would cause more harm then good to do it now.” So the inquisition definitely fears what Guilliman could do to them.
It gets funnier because over time, Guilliman starts to have doubts. “Is my father a god now?” Basically he just says his father is a god or just dismisses it whenever people say it. There was one ecleasiarch who hung out with guilliman and when he was dying, guilliman walked up to him on his deathbed and says “my father is no god”

man I love the custodes
Make a video about custodians!
@captain-generalkittonius6683 General kitten! THE TAU ARE COMING FOR YOU!
@captain-generalkittonius6683 Yes, that one. She is back for seconds.
Fun fact: The Dark Angels will straight up murder an inquisitor who looks at them too closely. "He came down with explosive decompression." There was a scene in one of the books where an inquisitor was speaking to a dark angel and was all like "I know you are hiding something and I will find it." As he turned to leave the room, the space marine's hand grabs the man's head and crushes it.
He came down with a head splitting migraine
Least paranoid dark Angel
You'd think that Inquisitors in training would be given a few pointers of who not to fuck with. "Just remember, the Navy is a mess of cordiality and proper authority so be careful who you make demands of. The Astartes are usually quite similar but DO NOT INSTIGATE A DARK ANGEL! You will go missing and there will be nothing we can ever do for you."
Eh.Sometimes GW writers turn inquisitors into jobbers and it makes no sense. Definitely a "canon, not true" moment. Same shit happened with the space wolves, but even more egregious because one of them refused to give up a literal demon weapon, and killed inquisitors over it.
For the setting to make sense, the level of retaliation would mean the death of the chapter. Like, the inquisition remembers when space marine chapters fell, and inquisitors represent the will of the imperium. So yeah, shitty writing IMO. Plus, making more bodies out of important people is literally the worst way to hide a secret.
Baldermort's video "Dark Angels Lore" begins with an interaction between an Inquisitor and a Dark Angel positively dripping with mutual contempt wherein the Inquisitor IS SMUG from uncovering evidence of The Fallen AND BRAZEN ENOUGH TO THREATEN REPORTING IT. HE RELISHES the thought of exposing the secret of the Dark Angels as going to be the crowning achievement of his career, but the segment ends with the Dark Angel snapping his neck.
Rogue traders are some of the most interesting things in the 40k universe and i wish we got more stories of them
It's such a shame, considering they're what launched the franchise
agreed i vote for rogue traders next
not only that but they have some of the most freedoms of anyone in the imperium
Check out the audio series by voix in the void
@@loganhinderliter8660 2nd only to inquisitors and I guess custodes though a rogue trader probably never meets one of the golden boys
I still remember then greyfax threatened a custodian and all the custodian did was laugh in her face.
Frankly, she's blessed that the Custodian gave her the dignity of a reaction. Also, I'm surprised they can laugh, I figured they were these eternally stoic beings who had had any informal parts of their psyche literally removed.
@@kieranadamson3224 well might as well make them some what interesting to read about instead of just living statues
@@Micmag- yeah, good point. Plus, just because they CAN laugh about certain things doesn't mean that anyone outside of the Custodes would usually ever see them really express any emotion period. They're kind of like mini-primarchs including being the closest to what any of them could consider a family.
The space sharks have got to make the cut. Such an interesting chapter.

I'm totally down for a space dwarves episode mostly because I think the history of them in GW is kinda interesting.
Rock and stone!
But I’d love it if they did a space dwarf episode
The Leagues are dope as hell
ROCK AND STONE
SPACE SHARKS UNITE!!!!
Praise the red wake and Praise the emperor
SPACE SHARKS RAHHH
RAAAAAAAAAAAH
Yes
RAAAAGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH 🦈🦈🦈
I've been binge watching Adeptus Ridiculuous to scratch my 40k lore itch while you've been on this short break. The minute I realized your new episode must be out by now I was like "Adeptus Who?", because this is by far the superior show. You can watch AR for the memes, but I turn to you guys for the actual lore. Keep up the good work!
Speaking of which, my vote goes to the Rogue Traders.
If no one has called it yet since you guys hit 100K, then I call dibs on being the second grey knight in the legion.
Grey knight hand
Just saying, Alpharius did break into the Imperial Palace once (Allegedly). He snuck in in a supply convoy by faking being a normal person, faking his death, then broke out of the cargo hold, killed a Custodes, took his armor, sabotaged a bunch of guns, then got into a snipers nest with line of sight to where the Emperor Himself was going to land soon. And as the Emperor walked out, Alpharius drew a bead, then Constantine Valdor caught him and fought him to a standstill, only for Alpharius to activate and train the sabotaged guns on the Emperor and His ship, thus proving that he could have killed the Emperor.
Valdor was not happy.
Valdor then implemented the Blood Games where the custodes are challenged to break into the Imperial Palace so they can identify and fix any weaknesses. Cause whether he was happy about it, it was a good idea.
As a dude who is currently running Rogue Trader campaign - yeah, my favorite quirky Conquistadors deserve a episode
Rouge traders:)
@@fehatoga5680all for ze glory le Emperor mon ami😂
Hard choice, as these are three subjects I'm fond of, but I gotta go with Rogue Traders and their motto, "It's not heresy if I have a permit"
In honor of the upcoming game, GIVE US THE ROGUE TRADERS!
Can we get a video on Trazyn's biggest competition? The KLEPTOMARINES, aka the BLOOD RAVENS.
My favorite Red Handed Thieves!
The best of Lorgar Children!

Fucking hell, spat out my tea with the "it just works"

“They’re above Space Marines, they can even boss around Chapter Masters!”
Logan Grimnar, Lord of the Space Wolves: “Lol, das is a nice head you got there. How attached are you to it?” 😏😉
Rather famously, after the ¿Second? War for Armageddon, if I recall. Grimnar’s boys were in trouble for saving civilians… and a few other things…
Inquisition has two arms of dedicated Space Marines. Grey Knights (sorta, more latitude, less attached at the hip since they went from Demonhunters (2/3rd Ed) to Grey Knights, 5th Ed. AND Deathwatch (Xeno hunters.) these match two different Ordos and support them. The third major Ordos gets both Sister and Black Templar, so…
@@jeremygarner9985 That’s exactly what I’m talking about. Grimar and his boys were “in trouble”, and The Inquisitor, who was in charge of the trouble, lost his head. The Gray Knights received a beating as well with their grandmaster also being cleaved apart in a suspicious Logan Grimar ax related injury. The sons of Russ have but three f*cks to give. One for the Emperor, one for the Primark, one for the Great Wolf. If you are not one of those three individuals, best beware who you try to boss around.
Honestly by what I just heard you guys should do a custodies episode. They sound absolutely, positively, and immensely interesting!
Inquisitors can in fact order around space marines, they're just wise enough to know that when it comes to space marines, it is better to make requests than demands
I vote Space Sharks, most OP astartes ever. Also inquisitors give off big "weird kid in the back of the room picking the legs off bugs* vibes
Minataurs are school bullies, Space Sharks are school shooters.
“They get over zealous at times” has to one of the greatest understatements of all time 😂
If the space sharks win they will stop torturing that dark space eldar in the cells
Wait … so do we want them to win or not?
@@endel12the dark eldar might be enjoying it so....
@@tinguspingus4983No they are not. They are experiencing absolute nothingness. It's hell.
The more I learn about the imperium the more I understand why guilliman was so stressed when he came back 😂😂😂
"Oh yeah, just because you are inocent doesn't mean that you are inocent"
Inquisition
“You are guilty because I declared it so.”
It's more like "Either you have done nothing wrong and this is a great object lesson to everyone that might plan on doing wrong or you're damned, either way it's good for the Imperium."
@@Reddotzebra
😂 I like that one.
There are a lot of great Inquisition books.
Then there are Ian Watson's novelizations about his WH40k-themed mashup of the Hustler Letters and Slaaneshi fan-erotica. He writes much about topics such as a Kim-possible sniper shot with a laspistol, a Callidus assassin's "love pouch," Inquisitor Drago's uncomfortably explicit thirst, and the exquisite, verbose details of a down-bad Chaos city and its denizens.
Watson's lurid prose depicts all manner of bonkers situations, his own barely-concealed scat fetish, and we learn of Drago's many neuroses. Also, BooOOL! We find out that murderhobo'ing your way through the alleys and tunnels of Terra’s world-city is the best way to clandestinely approach the innermost sanctum of the Imperial Palace and sneak in to have a picnic chitchat with the God Emperor.
Fortunately, other Black Library authors chose not to follow Ian Watson's example.
I love what you guys have been doing and have been here from the start. I must throw my hat in with The Carcharodons, *purely* because I wanna see Koda's reaction to the description of The Red Wake himself. As well as the description of primal fear the lurkers in the dark give to their foes. Keep up with the good work, delays are bound to happen with the quality content y'all put out!
Didn't know space sharks were a thing in 40k but you now have my attention
They are great. Their leader is man so big he has been mistaken for an oversized statue of a space marine terminator multiple times when standing still. Plus his name is "Tyberos, the Red Wake" which is metal af and they spend 90% of their time just roving deep space in nomad fleets hunting and killing anything they find beyond the imperium's borders which might be a threat. They are also one of the few chapters to engage in outright slave raiding for their primary recruitment method which makes them stand out from most chapters.
YES!
Ever since reading the Eisenhorn books, the Inquisition became my favorite thing in 40k.
Yes they are one of the Evilest things within the Imperium, but Damm the Stories are Interesting
SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS
I couldn't agree more, some Inquisitors can be cool or at the very least understandable. Yet, ever since I heard the story of the time an Inquisitor somehow captured a Legion of the Damned Astartes and caused so much needless pain because of it. Firstly, it's established that just in general there are ghostly things occurring all across the prison ship she's hitched a ride on. Then, the whole ship starts to severely malfunction to the point that the whole ship is on the brink of just having the structure fail and everyone on board die. It's so serious that the Captain actively calls the Inquisitor out on her bullshit repeatedly and demands she dump her mysterious, at that point, cargo. She just bald faced lies about it and instead makes some remarks about how it's the Captain's fault. Then, one of the main characters, a lady called Brandon, tells the Inquisitor about all the ghostly stuff including that pretty much the entire crew has been hearing a spectre whispering the word "out". I'll say now that the reason why is because it's the one word the Legion Astartes utters once it's revealed that that was the Inquisitor's cargo. You'd think this is where the Inquisitor would stop but no, instead she tells Brandon that since she seems so intimately aware of heresy she'll be retaining her for questioning. I mean, maybe I misunderstood that but she's definitely saying she's going to send her to the interrogator, right? She knows that all the problems on the ship are her fault but she just bare faced lies to everyone and in the end her captive's warp energy ends up drawing the attention of a demonic ship full of pox walkers.
One of my favourite quotes was in the kreig book where a kreigsmen walks past an inquisitor and just nods at him and walks away and a squad of imperial guardsmen see that and say “that’s a man with a clear Conscience” 😂
I personaly wanna know about the teleporting through the warp crocodiles. Sadly I have forgotten the name.
From the list of options my personal list would be
Votan
Abhumans
Sharks
Rogue traders
"My patience is limited, unlike my authority" - Eisenhorn
Please for Rogue Traders, the best any of us could get if we were isekai'ed into 40k
Ciaphas Cain! I need to hear the ramblings about 40k's greatest bachelor!
I was tempted to say Abhumans, but my mind was changed by the chorus of ROCK AND STONE with the Votann.
when you rock and stone, you're never alone
Space Sharks would be an amazing episode, such a great aesthetic!
It looks like they’re finally explaining everything in the last episode
You mean the next episode
No
This Episode Is An Explanation Of The Episode After The Newest Upload
That Upload They Just Released Is Explained In That One Episode That's Audio Was Scuffed
Lol I'm Glad It Was Posted Anyway
A space shark trying to sneak in:
“YOU DO NOT SEE TYBEROS OF THE RED WAKE!!”
Honestly though, I like to imagine Tuberose is aware of how unrealistic he looks to other people so he might just cosplay as a statue and wait for the enemy to come to him.
Shark dady
reminds me of that time a goon walked in on batman and who just looked at the goon, the goon promptly left and when asked if he saw something said nope ruclips.net/video/pMd4S-LkywI/видео.htmlsi=yGw5WwopGjfNeTDV
AHHH YES MY FAVORITE CHAPTER, I genuinely never thought I’d see them they’re kinda a niche. Space sharks all the way.
I am so happy I found you guys. Thank you guys and RUclips Shorts
I have binged all the warhammer vids over the last few days and I’m having a major hyper focus on it rn 😍. You both have amazing voices and please do more! Space sharks!!!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Leagues of Votann are probably the one thing in warhammer I know nothing about, show our Manlet Kings some love.
I love the Space Sharks but I feel like we gotta do Rogue Traders before the game comes out. (Releases Dec 7th btw)
"There is NO innocents, only degrees of Guilt" I believe is a Librarian's quote from the PC Dawn Of War Games
18:06 I can see the inquisition maybe trying that on Guilliman but now with El Johnson back , oh boy they may want to check themselves before pissing off that man.
Well he's a bit more calm and reserve now
space sharks or ab humans would be bussin keep up the great work
“There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.”
Carcharodons! :D MY BOIS! Can't wait for that one, whenever it may come. That aside always a pleasure lads o7
I first want to thank you both from the bottom of my heart. Both of you have made my weeks for months now I work all the time I've only had 1 day off this whole year I sincerely thank you for making my life more enjoyable I hope you see this
If i remember right, Amberley, the inquisitor Cain met, mentioned potentially calling in entire chapters, but it's been a while since i read the books.
Regular Inquisitors probably could order around a chapter master, but they would know to ask rather than command. In 'Renegades: Harrowmaster' two Inquisitors don't quite order around a high chaplain of an Astartes chapter, they convince him to do things, negotiating from a position of power. A Lord Inquisitor could and would issue commands though.
Oh my emperor. An inqusition movie directed by Michael Bay and another one derected by Quentin Tarantino would both be cannon and amazing.
Rock and Stone for the Ancestors!!
Glad to see you guys are back. Legitimately look forward to them every week.
Votan!! I must learn more. For the army of stone :Cue wind rose music
Carcaridons are cool too though would not complain
Rogue traders, secondary vote leagues of vottan
23:55
Khorne is in the emperors eye
It’s his Khornea (cornea). he had to have done this on purpose
Tyberos quietly demands an episode
The space sharks will rise from the bottom of the abyss that is the imperium to the height of glory.
TYBEROS THE RED WAKE DEMANDS AN EPISODE
No. He whispers that he will have an episode. He never demands. That would indicate he raises his voice
WOOOOO FIRST NEW VID SINCE DISCOVERING YOU GUYS LETS GOOOOO
My vote is for the Leagues of Votan. Gimme the space dwarves.
Gonna need that 3 part Robute Guilliman video.
I think my favorite inquisitor was inquisitor skorn- has a chaos tome to better fight chaos but is more middle of the road type
The Feds came to my uncles house one day, and he stood outside, telling them the same line over and over, "Go get a warrant", I was so proud. I made sure to tell my whole family their rights and how to defend themselves. And the Feds left and never came back, turned out to be my uncles son and his wife were in a bad custody fight.
A rouge trader stole my vote
We gotta see how fucking terrifying the red wake is. Space sharks hands down.
me "why did the title change?" Oh, double upload, because they're insane that way. Leagues of Votann for sure! ROCK AND STONE
I honestly like all the options, so I'm not going to vote. But my favorite Inquisition quote is, "There is no such thing as innocence, only shades of guilt."
I would like to learn more about the abhumans so they get my vote!
Honestly, an ogryne episode sounds fun
Inquisitor Lord Fyodor Karamazov, that's the dude on the chair.
I had a wild request y'all...Any chance you two could give us a deep cut on Iskander Khayan? Nobody seems to do a lot with this monstrously grand character. I know he isn't a Primarch, but man I think he's scary cool. Also, THANK YOU FOR THE LORE! FOR ISYANDER!!!! FOR KODA!!!! FOR THE IMPERIUM!!!!!!!!
Get me those Votann my boys :D
Also keep up the good work, you guys have become hands down my favorite podcast to listen too :D
Chapter Masters, Rogue Traders, and Inquisitors technically have the same level of authority.
They each act as the hand and voice of the emperor.
If you do Ab Humans, you technically have to do Votann and vice versa. SO ROCK AND STONE! Votann it is!
I can not express in words on how much I love your content
feeling that ab-human vibe, and space sharkes
Watchers in the rain gives an interesting view on the inquisition, wont spoil it
Rogue Traders. I need to know more!
Abhumans sounds like such a lovely thing to dive into❤
Gabriel Seth got bossed around by an Inquisitor in one novel. It's worth looking at the end result 😂
Abhumans next, I love the beastmen. I know that there's still loyalist beastmen in the Imperium but we never see them or the most of the other abhumans
Space Sharks all beware The Red Wake.
tyberos the red wake declares you must do a carcharodon episode
Knowing about Horus can't be illegal. Horus killing Sanguineous the while point of Sanguineous Day.
Long time listener first comment; as a new fan of 40k, this podcast has helped me understand a lot of the stuff and I thank you for it.
Carcharodon Astra! We who hunt in the eternal void! We who hunt in silence!
You dug so deep you found an Inquisition job application
Rock and stone!!
Votann
Oh damn, please do Space Sharks!
And for your consideration, please and thank you for a Video on Gregor Eisenhorn
*All Hail the machine god, Praise the Omnissiah
Garviel Loken, Captain of the Luna Wolves Legion's 10th Company.
Thanks for the new episode as always!
Also, please prepare the JAWS theme music for the next episode 😈

“Luck has, need keeps, toil earns” - Votann
Lordy lord, it was a long wait but it was worthy, also my vote goes to the space sharks
