According to all known sources (at the time of this video's release), both Sorcerers and Rubricae are simply revived on the Planet of the Sorcerers the moment they go down.

@@unintentionallydramatic There's a lot - in fact 40kTheories has some good videos on them as a good place to start :) Probably too much for me to go into here though I do like talking about them.
Simply, they grow them on a field like daisies. In Swedish Tusensönerna (the thousand sons) = Tusenskönorna (oxeye/daisy) So the expression "pushing up the daisies" makes this a selfsufficient circle of life. I still wonder how asdrubael vect got the name for his boat "dais of destruction" it might be related. Maybe that's the bee polinating?
Andus Dominae - thing is, I think the Tomb Kings were published after the Necrons? Regardless, I just want to watch a three-way fight between bony undead in silly hats, armored undead in silly hats, and shiny undead without silly hats (except the leaders). Who would win? Place your bets!
Ancient Egypt themed faction conduct an ill-devised experiment involving higher powers in order to cure an affliction which would eventually wipe them out. Resulting in 99% of their numbers turning into mindless metallic automatons to be ruled by their lucky leaders, who retain their sanity. Apart from those details, nope, nothing.
The problem with just reversing the Rubric is that it would reinvite the flesh change again. As negative as the side effects are, The Rubric does protect the remaining sorcerers.
I knew it! They have no bodies really, so they're just an army of living armor. With sorcerors at their helm, the Rubric marines could be remotely repaired and used again. Or personally. Doesn't matter. Fact is that you don't need new soldiers. Although if I was them, I'd find a way to force the flesh change and put the rubric on new guys as well. Imagine, 10,000 living suits of armor...
If they want to recruit new sorcerers they probably nab any former loyalist librarians and give them a low level positions with the promises of them gaining forbidden knowledge, more power and higher rank if they do well.
Well as a sons player here's a little trade secret! Whenever you go into battle make sure you bring a portable vacuum! Cant waste that precious angry dust.
Gene seed multiply over time as well making it possible that thousands have been made over the centuries from the sorcerers. Also they could in theory just summon more Rubric marines.
Given that some Thousand sons left with their Rubrics to either strike out on their own or join other Legions and how the Thousand Sons Codex describes how the Legion is now organised they must have found some way of creating more Rubricae and Scarab Occult otherwise the formations and groups described would be REALLY small, impractically so. It's entirely possible that now that Ahriman is back in Magnus' goodbooks (somehow) that the intimate knowledge of the workings of the Rubric is in Magnus and the legions hands so they could be creating more, as otherwise with how risky it is to bring back Rubricae and their constant conflicts with the Space Wolves they'd likely be reduced to a handful, notwithstanding that if they were reduced to a Thousand, which may be hearsay as I think Inferno mentions that they survived Prospero with a fair bit more than that, there's also those exiled, and not all of them would have returned, I.E. those with Iskander Khayon.
This was the first video I was recommended after coming on RUclips. I just came out the loft, went looking for my space marines and came back with them, as well as some thousand sons I didn't know I had. It's like tzeench himself placed the thousand sons there, then recommended the video, there was 9 of them too...
There was a previous video that covered the Rubric being partially retroactive. A bunch of HH era Thousand Sons leave a time pocket, and immediately turn to dust, but without the Rubric armor.
I really hope that something like that could happen. I mean, I want TTS Magnus back with Big E Papa and his legion, so correct and polite like their cyclop daddy, following him. I don’t mind Cadia crumbles, Papa Smurph back and Primaris marine out there, but sometimes I want TTS to be canon.
Considering magnus is now a demon of tzeench and demons can be created and undone in an instant by him. I dont think so. There's a reason demons never betray their god and that is their very survival. So only if magnus becomes mortal....
Wimpiethe3 Well, a screaming guardsman like me can only dream. I can be contented if at least our lovely supersane lemonlover Rogal Dorn is brought back to the Imperium to quench the most political movements of his smurf brother Roboute Guilliman.
No. Magnus doesn't have a soul anymore, or a body. Tzeentch can just will Magnus out of existence anytime he wishes. None of the traitor primarchs (save for the perfect Fulgrim clone in Trayzin's collection) can ever be redeemed.
@@gianlucaborg195 did you never play Half-Life 2? that's approximately how the game starts, except Mr Freeman instead of Rubric; and the G-Man is the guy in the suit that "rescues" you at the end of the first Half-Life
Here's my take: Tzeentch didn't save the T-sons [a largely loyal chapter]; neither did the rubric. The sorcerers surviving the horrors of Prospero and the events that lead to it suffer from severe PTSD. This manifests, as the Rubricae forcing them to relive their brethren's' deaths over and over again while clinging to the delusion that the past can be undone. Literally the T-sons are haunted by their past. The Thousand Sons for their part continue to commit grievous atrocities in pursuit of the hope that they can somehow restore their long dead brethren, when in fact they only end up replicating the events that drove them to madness in the first place. This forces them further and further into the clutches of Teentch the very god responsible for their sorrows. Pity the man that remains sane to the bitter end.
In the book Treacheries of the Space Marines their is a short story called The Master’s Bidding in which the Thousand Sons sorcerer Corven admits to being recruited into the legion in M41
Yeah, she used the resurrection and subsequent death to distract Ahriman. There's definitely those who would leave Tzeentch if she offered them an escape or reversal.of the Rubric.
Spear of Russ wasn't destroyed, Ragnar throws it at Magnus and then gets exiled for it but in the last of the Space Wolf novels they get it back. Still a very interesting vid tho! Thanks for giving me something to paint to.
I thought Chaos astartes had to steal geneseed from loyalist chapters? That the warp corrupts their progeoid glands to a point where they are essentially useless
Of all the Chaos warbands, being captured by the Thousand Sons, even if a weak psyker, is a better fate for most Imperial Citizens than on their respective home planet. The Thousand Sons recruit many normal humans into the ranks of thrall wizards, where they are trained and serve the cabal in exchange for knowledge. Supposedly, being a thrall wizard is not a bad fate, as some may even reach leadership within the Thousand Sons. On a side note, I remember reading about a Raven Guard Librarian meeting a Sanctioned Psyker over use of the Emperor's Tarot, the Librarian seemed to hold the Sanctioned Psyker as a comrade, unlike Space Marines to Guardsmen. I don't think it's much of a stretch that Thousand Sons would have held a similar view to recruits, as psykers share the same worldview, even if traitor.
The Aeldari know a way to turn the Rubric back into flesh again as detailed in the Thousand Sons codex: "Yvraine - the Ynnari emissary of the recently awakened God of the Dead - demonstrates the power she xan offer by restoring to life a dozen Rubric Marines. The ressurected Thousand Sons are staggered by their sudden awakening, knowing not where they are or who they fight, yet they recognise their battle-brother Ahzek Ahriman whom they have not beheld with living eyes for ten millenia." They are pulled into the void of the webway during the fight so Ahriman cannot study them but it is clear that they can be changed back to normal.
The thousand Sons are the coolest looking Space marine traitor chapter. I am just kissed they were forced into becoming chaos because of the Space wolves.
Well, the Spear wasn't destroyed when Ragnar used it to break the ritual. As part of his "redemption" (Ragnar's) was in eventually recovering the spear, yes?
I thought I read in some lore somewhere once (source: trust me bro) that the Thousand Sons have an unknown method of creating Rubric Marines. It was implied that this method was both efficient and effective as they would often lend these new rubrics out to owner warbands for favors.
how has magnus not learned how to make gene seed from tzeentch yet? thats what Big E had to do right? idk but then that would give chaos too much of an edge. tzeench only plays on the hardest difficulty settings heh
patrick howard i see i see, yet gene seed production would seem the one thing that chaos undivided would agree upon to divulge to traitors. but then chaos would be too OP tbh. but then loyalists would be just screwed lol
@@Sanguinor_Energy Yeah I want more super powered humans running around my warp. Who have been know to change sides! I will keep my demons and mindless monsters thank you. Beside if you do toss Big E off the throne. Who knows if he is powerful enough to reincarnate (as a woman just to piss people off) then are the legions traitors still?
Seems like Big E tweaked the Sons to withstand the psychological effects from fighting chaos and it backfired. Similar effect to Eldar Wraithguard but in reverse sorta
Oh Look! Pre-Necron Necrons... Now, if Arnold hadn't coined "I'll Be Back" once upon a time, would there ever have been Necrons? There is an interesting question.
I dunno man. The more I hear about chaos marines trying to replenish their number the more I begin the think on how is it possible that the legions aren't already extinct or at least so under strength that calling them legions is a moot point. I mean they suffered grevious losses during the horus heresy and the scouring, and most stories I've read tend to show chaos marines being killed off entirely or at least suffering serious casualties. They just dont have the resources or capabilities of replenishing their stocks. I mean shouldn't it be that in the current time of 40k that loyalist space marines significantly outnumber all chaos marines? I know occasionally some chapters, companies, squads and individuals switch over but not nearly enough to support chaos and definatly doesn't explain the legions themselves being major forces in their own right I dunno. It's been on my mind lately since I started going the three horus heresy books. Marines die like its going out of fashion in some of those.
Yes. While regular Space Marines have an exceptionally high threshold, they do still feel it. Also, despite what Imperial Propaganda says to the contrary, Space Marines do feel fear. It's just that they're mentally conditioned to react to it in a manner that a baseline human typically won't.
Im sad for them cause they (until they started serving Tzeentch,but even then they were the most "noble" legion) did nothing wrong. He tried to warn Big E about Horus but he wouldn't listen cause Magnus broke his toy,which he could have just rebuilt from the ground up considering how much man power,resources and time he had. Then,instead of banning all use of psyche for astartes unless they were a librarian or a navigator he banned all use outright. And instead of trying to help Magnus cure his legion,he decided to diddle with his new toy. Even after falling to Chaos,most of the bad things they did were either for revenge from the furries or were cause Tzeentch ordered them to do so. WHICH I THINK WAS THE ONE THAT INFECTED THE LEGION WITH THE FLESH CURSE IN THE FIRST PLACE. Then,Ahriman tried to save the legion when Tzeentch infected the Legion with the curse after saving them cause he is a dick and Magnus stopped him cause Tzeentch has a fetish for birds and wanted his Legion to be out of birds. If they hadn't stopped the spell maybe the entire Legion could have retained their souls,but still be turned into dust. Which isnt a bad thing. Why would they wanna take their armour off in the first place?

On a side note, I remember reading about a Raven Guard Librarian meeting a Sanctioned Psyker over use of the Emperor's Tarot, the Librarian seemed to hold the Sanctioned Psyker as a comrade, unlike Space Marines to Guardsmen. I don't think it's much of a stretch that Thousand Sons would have held a similar view to recruits, as psykers share the same worldview, even if traitor.
The Aeldari know a way to turn the Rubric back into flesh again as detailed in the Thousand Sons codex:
"Yvraine - the Ynnari emissary of the recently awakened God of the Dead - demonstrates the power she xan offer by restoring to life a dozen Rubric Marines. The ressurected Thousand Sons are staggered by their sudden awakening, knowing not where they are or who they fight, yet they recognise their battle-brother Ahzek Ahriman whom they have not beheld with living eyes for ten millenia."
They are pulled into the void of the webway during the fight so Ahriman cannot study them but it is clear that they can be changed back to normal.
Great video!
it actually says in the codex that they are capable of resurrecting the rubrics
Its only by the book writers, theres almost no way they can do it otherwise.
I'm not sure that Ragnar destroyed the spear cause I believe he put that same spear through Magnus' eye and was then retrieved later on.
The thousand Sons are the coolest looking Space marine traitor chapter. I am just kissed they were forced into becoming chaos because of the Space wolves.
I just imaged the sorcerers go around with mason jars trying to recollect the dust and put it in new armor
We are all dust, dust in the wind
They go around and empty out the vacuum bags
They get butterfly nets, capture the souls of their brothers, stick them back into their armor, and flex tape it shut.
Well benefit of the Rubric is...
Can't have any of your number kidnapped by a world eaters warband and forced to have The butcher's nails implanted
Yo 40K Theories keep it up!!! I need it!! (Butchers Nails kicking in) excuse me!!!
Well, the Spear wasn't destroyed when Ragnar used it to break the ritual. As part of his "redemption" (Ragnar's) was in eventually recovering the spear, yes?
I thought I read in some lore somewhere once (source: trust me bro) that the Thousand Sons have an unknown method of creating Rubric Marines. It was implied that this method was both efficient and effective as they would often lend these new rubrics out to owner warbands for favors.
how has magnus not learned how to make gene seed from tzeentch yet? thats what Big E had to do right? idk but then that would give chaos too much of an edge. tzeench only plays on the hardest difficulty settings heh
patrick howard i see i see, yet gene seed production would seem the one thing that chaos undivided would agree upon to divulge to traitors. but then chaos would be too OP tbh. but then loyalists would be just screwed lol
@@Sanguinor_Energy Yeah I want more super powered humans running around my warp. Who have been know to change sides! I will keep my demons and mindless monsters thank you. Beside if you do toss Big E off the throne. Who knows if he is powerful enough to reincarnate (as a woman just to piss people off) then are the legions traitors still?
BryceJ80 i was just saying magnus kind of knows a lot of crap
Collect up all the dust in their homes and put it inside empty suits of power armour.
A very extremely awesome video as always 40k Theories.
Seems like Big E tweaked the Sons to withstand the psychological effects from fighting chaos and it backfired. Similar effect to Eldar Wraithguard but in reverse sorta
Rubrics are made of warp dust. Change my mind!
now i want to see what happen if the necrons vs the Thousand Sons and who would win
Thought: Maybe the ritual that recruits new sorcerors into the thousand sons turns those that die in the process into new rubrics?
Oh Look! Pre-Necron Necrons...
Now, if Arnold hadn't coined "I'll Be Back" once upon a time, would there ever have been Necrons?
There is an interesting question.
Thats a damn amazing and enchanting voice!
Hmm good info.
They got dust cleaner and collect their fallen dust brother and put them back in some empty armor
They have a giant vacuum cleaner to get all the dust then they put them in new armor
I would think that the answer is in the name, very prolific.
I dunno man. The more I hear about chaos marines trying to replenish their number the more I begin the think on how is it possible that the legions aren't already extinct or at least so under strength that calling them legions is a moot point. I mean they suffered grevious losses during the horus heresy and the scouring, and most stories I've read tend to show chaos marines being killed off entirely or at least suffering serious casualties. They just dont have the resources or capabilities of replenishing their stocks. I mean shouldn't it be that in the current time of 40k that loyalist space marines significantly outnumber all chaos marines? I know occasionally some chapters, companies, squads and individuals switch over but not nearly enough to support chaos and definatly doesn't explain the legions themselves being major forces in their own right
I dunno. It's been on my mind lately since I started going the three horus heresy books. Marines die like its going out of fashion in some of those.
I always assumed the chaos gods brought atleast some back in some way
This is one of our most well kept secrets how the fuck did you get this information?!?
It is simple, they are called Blood Ravens ;)
Bet Crawl fixed the Rubric somehow.... him or Bile. Actually on a side note, a book with the two of them interacting would be fascinating!
Crawl and bile team up to conquer the Galaxy and the warp. Together they can overthrow the emperor mankind and the chaos God's.
I'm pretty sure Imurah spent almost all Rubricae available in the Thousand Sonsv😂😂😂
My favourite Traitor Legion.
They just empty their ashtrays inside the suits of armor
Butt stuff?....
oh no wait, Im thinking of the Emperor's Children
Could they use the emperor's sword as a catalyst for another attempt at the ritual or would it have to be the spear of russ?
Is a fight between thousand sons called a dust up?
2:24 incapable of feeling pain and fear? Is that particularly unusual for Space Marines?
Yes. While regular Space Marines have an exceptionally high threshold, they do still feel it. Also, despite what Imperial Propaganda says to the contrary, Space Marines do feel fear. It's just that they're mentally conditioned to react to it in a manner that a baseline human typically won't.
@ oh wow that was a fast reply I didn’t expect. Thanks, and I appreciate the video!
They're more Necron Marines than Chaos Marines...
How do they maintain their numbers?
The same way Magnus ended up with a thousand sons in the first place.
May Magnus one day sweep the dust off the Golden throne and sit upon his rightful empire
I got to see the rubric Marines somewhere to necrons but they still have their soles and necrons don't well they're both space Egyptian Salinas
Im sad for them cause they (until they started serving Tzeentch,but even then they were the most "noble" legion) did nothing wrong. He tried to warn Big E about Horus but he wouldn't listen cause Magnus broke his toy,which he could have just rebuilt from the ground up considering how much man power,resources and time he had. Then,instead of banning all use of psyche for astartes unless they were a librarian or a navigator he banned all use outright. And instead of trying to help Magnus cure his legion,he decided to diddle with his new toy. Even after falling to Chaos,most of the bad things they did were either for revenge from the furries or were cause Tzeentch ordered them to do so. WHICH I THINK WAS THE ONE THAT INFECTED THE LEGION WITH THE FLESH CURSE IN THE FIRST PLACE. Then,Ahriman tried to save the legion when Tzeentch infected the Legion with the curse after saving them cause he is a dick and Magnus stopped him cause Tzeentch has a fetish for birds and wanted his Legion to be out of birds. If they hadn't stopped the spell maybe the entire Legion could have retained their souls,but still be turned into dust. Which isnt a bad thing. Why would they wanna take their armour off in the first place?
Walking dustbins
But if the rubrics just regenerate that means the thousand sons are a legion filled with 10.000 year old veterans.
