Hello Majorkill, Would you please make some lore videos on the Imperial Truth, the Imperial Creed, the Ecclesiarchy, and the High Lords of Terra? Pretty please? Thank you.
Maybe he's in a cave, resting after dragging himself there and is slowly rebuilding like how ego quickly rebuilt his body in guardians 2 but over 5000 years
it's like in Doctor who when the Doctor travels so insanely far into the future of the universe that he eventually reaches a point in time where even the Immortal beings are all dead and that even includes immortals who can't be killed by normal means.
“Barely survived” fighting a black Lucifer? My guy John was unarmored and had to avoid trip lasers and make sure he not only killed the BL but do it without making a noise. John had that DAWG in him. Love the content.
I can imagine him eventually being raised to Officer and given the most dangerous assignments which are completed but he is the only one returns, for obvious reasons. Basically he would be HUNK/Mr Death from Resident Evil IN SPACE!
actually a decent motivator though i think mortarion has mentioned to guilliman that he knows why the emperor created them and if you think about it, morty 100% would be salty about this being only option B cuz all ur dads friends fucked off and even then you where a dissapointment
@@floatylog771 I am just picturing a parody of the Chaos Gods showing Big E editting Lorgar, Morty, Horus and Alpharius to be bald. And it not normal baldness, it Primaris baldness!
They have an interesting dynamic and fought numerous times pre-Imperium throughout old earth. Ollanus is the only one I believe that Emps allowed to keep his faith without issue (called “Cartherics” in setting as bastardized through Low Gothic). IIRC every major war of old had them both on opposite sides. Ollanus the eternal warrior, Ollanus the unknown soldier
And you know? I'm quite curious of why he is a devout Catholic when he is Older than most Religion and even the likes of Jesus Christ I Wonder if he is somehow one of his Disciples and keep his faith as a remembrance of his friend
@@ronanchristiana.belleza9270 Yeah that part doesn't make much sense. Especially since Big E has been roughly acknowledged as the source of most mainstream religions, INCLUDING Jesus (In other words, Emperor WAS Jesus), and Ollanus would logically KNOW this. I'm guessing whoever wrote that part didn't put much thought into it and just figured it sounded nifty.
@@MrRawrCEO 40k has so much contradicting lore because of terrible writers, emp being considered any of those deity’s is just stupid and fits nowhere into his character
It's actually really sad if you think about it. An immortal who wishes to create a band of other immortals to lead their own race into ascension. The emperor probably did this not because they're the best most efficient option but because they're the few people who could understand him and who he could see as equals. But one by one they all left or betrayed him or were killed. Immortality is in many ways a curse, especially if you are the only one.
It's worth noting too how many of his friends ended up becoming his sworn enemies. They all acknowledged Neoth as the most powerful among them, but also the most arrogant and least willing to listen to anyone.
There's an episode of Rick and Morty that off handedly addresses the dark side of immortality. One of the Knights of the Sun says something like "We're immortal! Not like angsty vampires who can't die. We can die any time we want! We just don't want to!" I too would see forced immortality as a curse. Whatever your favorite thing ever is, unless you were able to reset your memories, by the billionth time you've done it, you'll be tired of it. There's a Manson line "without the threat of death there's no reason to live at all". The brevity of life gives it meaning. Each moment is important, because you'll never get that moment back. To anyone who read this far... do something cool today. Do something nice for someone else for no reason. Call someone you love that you haven't talked to lately.
@@Nukefandango If you keep making enemies instead you need to start considering what the common factor is in every failing relationship. Which likely may be yourself.
@@PaulJokiel Spoilers for Puss in Boots The last wish. As per request. Death is what gives life meaning, that's why I believe death from Puss in Boots the Last Wish isn't actually a villain. Yes Puss lived his life to the fullest, but his life was not lived meaningfully. Death himself said in in the cave of lost souls that. Hell, I even think death helped Puss escape the cave of lost souls. I believe death intentionally pushed Puss to the wishing star so he can reunite with Kitty Soft Paws and live his last life with those who truly love him.
I like thinking some of those perpetuals who left the emperor in peace were left to basically retire, they live on their own in hermit homes where they live out their days life after life in as close to peace as possible. The perpetuals who betrayed him are stuck in cells together, able to talk and not go insane. And the ones who die are finally in peace
Vulkan either is fighting monsters currently or just trolling his sons while waiting them to find his wild goose chase for artifacts don’t even know if it will bring him back or even why he wants a journey to find random cool items for some strange test or massage
The Salamanders will never tell anyone that they don't even know where to start looking for the fabled Diu Sto, Longum Pondus and Cubito Uncto. And nobody will ever know how funny Vulkan is finding this.
My headcannon for Vulcan is that he is currently with Votan. For dipping in vat he lost memory (or other standard shite - died, his body recreated after XXX amount of time but in deep sapce because of constant movement of planets etc.) and somehow ended with squats - where he live and work with technology as their advisor/blacksmith (with some sort of flashbacks but without real memory of what was before that). That would give nice twist to them going full ham with GAoT tech and AI and would potentially create some balance for Roberto Girlyman and (when he decide to wake the ef up) Lion. And for Chaos-y perpetual I would actually add here Lucius. He is twisted version of perpetual created by Slaneesh to show 'hey, I can do this shit too'.
I mean, Lucius isn't _technically_ a perpetual since his immortality works in a different way. He won't regenerate uncondontionally his killer has to feel pride for killing him and then he takes over their body, rather than his body reforming (even if their body then morphs to fit his original one)
@@alextrottea23 Yeah but if we're thinking logically within the blessing he was given, he shouldn't regenerate unconditionally, unfortunately writers occasionally forget that
Pius: "Where I fall, ten more shall take my place! And one hundred each of them! Strike me down! I am the Harbinger!" Chaos: "Don't fall for i-..." Horus: "And blocked...buncha Haterz...let's get back to my victory!"
Grey Knight level anti-daemon psykers, with Rogal Dorn level warp bending willpower. All while being perpetuals, and then being upgraded to Primaris. All ten thousand of them.
The big E: "This library of hectic Warp knowledge is valuable, we need to study it." Also Big E at council of Nikea: "No Magnus, you zoomers are too irresponsible to be trusted. I got mine so you can get bent, do as I say not as I doooooo!"
"GW butchered his character, he's supposed to be a good guy!" -Sobbing Emperor simps who legit thought a dude who claimed authority over an entire race could possibly be "a good guy"
@@Nukefandango Let Slaashen to be your daddy. Big E is morally good cuz everyobe else wants to use you as a chair for space coke and cbt drink dispenser
Since the golden throne almost killed a perpetual, makes you wonder if you take the Big E off the throne if it'll allow him to regenerate back to full life
It would not. The golden throne did not harm the perpetual, the immense psychic cost of maintaining the webway did. (For which you need to sit on the throne) The golden throne is what is currently keeping the emperor's body alive. The emperor was wounded so badly during the Horus heresy that he permanently needed the life support systems of the throne.
i think, that your talking about Old P. he got splattered by horus sadly. greatest guardsmen to ever live. stood his ground solo against a chaos infused demi god
I think the Emperor's original plan was that primarchs would still be his generals and Perpetuals would have been the one's to rule though which means he could have possibly wanted to raise his sons though at one point atleast
No, he wanted the Perpetuals to be his generals, but they turned their backs to him because they thought he was too ambitious and brutal. Left with only two, he decided to create a replacement, hence the Primarchs. They were indeed plan B.
Great video Majorkill, love learning bout 40k lore from ya. When you talked about Vulkan after he tackled an Ork all I kept thinking though was "Vulkan Lives!" From Text to Speech🤣 but great video nonetheless
You should make a sharrowkyn video, man saved purturabos life, shot fulgrim in his flamboyant face, and was ready to square up with alpharius before he gave him the bro code seal of approval
Alpharius is my favorite and when done well my favorite Legion. Rebels and not chaos scum. Hate how writers make them random Chaos Space Marines who do evil shit just cause lolz eat baby summon warp power grimdark. Can you elaborate? Can't afford these books God damn it.
I think a plausible in setting reason for perpetual creation during that one time is that the Emperor was experimenting with imbuing humans with warp essence and could serve as where he got the idea for his primarchs later on.
@@SirOrdo yea I get that but we want to tie up loose ends instead of fraying them so we look to the few "natural perpetuals" providing the scientific basis for how they even artificially created perpetuals in the first place.
You forgot Andrej Valatok, the Armageddon Storm Trooper from Helsreach and Blood And Fire who cannot be killed even when a cathedral falls on him or while the Celestial Lions are dying off around him.
I can’t believe you skipped the best line from Vulkan, after Conrad Curze give him back his teleport beacon and mocks him because it won’t work where they are, “You forget, Brother, it’s also a hammer”
Hello Majorkill, Would you please make some lore videos on the Imperial Truth, the Imperial Creed, the Ecclesiarchy, and the High Lords of Terra? Pretty please? Thank you.
I just finished Mechanicum; when Dhalia makes the Akashik Reader and fry’s that psyker was really good. Also when she receives the perpetual power while in the Nocturn Labyrintha. Also the battles between the Knights and Titans was awesome!!
Is it possible that the Primarchs inherited the aspects of Erda and not just the Emperor? As they are analyzes, their traits are often looked as parts of the Emperor.
I like to think the reason Vulkan hasn't returned,despite being a Perpetual is beacuse the way he died last time was by turning the "waaaagghh" against itself must've created some kind of Psychic backlash that's severely delayed his respawn by who knows many years
"I am a homo superior!" Big E's reaction, probably "Yeah no shit, but there's already a name for that. It's called a perpetual." "No I'm even bette-" *Big E proceeds to psychic blast*
Woah, nice - that Daemonkiller looks great. I was very unpleased with your King Ork, as it is really a mean green space marine and doesn't fit the 40k Orks wild and ramshackle aesthetic at all, but this one is fantastic.
06:34 Pls mention this is from kill six billion demons, one of the most interesting currently running webcomics, like a heavy metal album cover mixed with intense Hindu vibes.
Yes, finally... The Perpetuals! I wonder what the 40k setting would of looked like if the other Perpetuals agreed to be his generals? I imagine something akin to the Tau, a bunch of superior versions leading the others to prosperity. 🤔
I think Chaos would of eventually got it due somehow but if they were already not liking Big E at the start of the Solar Crusade, I think some would get abit funny and I think killing buddies you knew for thousands of years would leave you a wreck.
It’s gotta be so weird being a regular dude perpetual but also having known the Emperor at some point in time. Like, they’d have known each other for ages. They probably side regular every day stuff together. Fishing, playing COD or something. Like if you showed up to the Golden Throne in current day you could be like: “So, been up to anything lately?” “Same as it ever was” -translated from golden screaming
Didn't know that Frank Castle was a Perpetual, too. Joining the Guard was only natural to him(The Guard portrayed in the comic was drawn by the same guy who worked with Garth Ennis in his Punisher run twenty years ago: They look very much the same)
I like the idea from Baldemort's video about creation of the Emprah, that perpetuals were souls combined through ancient ritual. And this is why no more perpetuals were born after, since all shamans sacrificed themselves to make the Big E, nobody else could perform the soul merge ritual since
Btw, the Emperor dies every day while on the throne, but because of his love and caring for humanity, CHOOSES to return to the Throne body every time. Dan Abnett explained this on an interview. Hella dark.
other (could be) Perpetuals: Sly Marbo? Caldor Draigo? Corvus Corax (after turning into a Shadow Raven Demon, hunting down Lorgar)? Dante? Sanguinius (Sanguinor)? every Marine of the Legion of the Damned? Asterion Moloc (Minotaurs)?
Sounds to me like the perpetuals could’ve really influenced the galactic setting in major ways, so GW wanted them either “miraculously” killed off, or sidelined permanently so that the continuous grimdark vibe of the 40k universe has no hope of changing. Which is understandable but still kinda frustrating considering there was a fair bit of character potential for some of the perpetuals.
If anything, the more the Perpetuals would of been the targets for Chaos intervention, also imo they seem like were too useless to do anything to prevent it. If they couldnt even fight Big E, what hope they have.
Here's a question what if Erda before the great crusade was lunched, returned to the Emperor, the two official married and she is crowned Empress of Mankind?
If Konrad hadnt been unlifed, im certain he and another perperual would be playing a permanent game of Saw-Paradox-Billiards-Vostroyan-Roulette-Fourth-Dimensional-Hypercube-Chess-Strip Poker
John Grammaticus is like James Bond of 40K universe. Dude is always up on his toes... It sucks that he is no longer perpetual as he could still exist in M41...
Not trying to start fights, but if Magnus’ perpetual, killing attack, couldn’t kill the already pretty strong Vulcan doesn’t that make him the strongest Primark as he can defeat literally any of them by either not being able to be killed, over powering them, or both…?
You forgot one , Sly Marbo rejected the emperor, but said he was okay. The emperor was lucky to survive, I guess marbo saw something in him and ended up serving his cause later in life. Or lives.
We all know that Vulcan is just chilling near The Engine of Woes waiting for his children to finish his scavenger hunt Oh and Corvus is there too writing edgy poems before going back to the warp and spawn trapping Lorgar
I thought the last time I heard about Vulcan he was falling towards a planet from high orbit ? After being tortured by Konrad Cruze in the Horus heresy novel, correct me if I’m wrong please.
The one person who would wreak 40K is Q from the Star Trek series. Hands down. He would turn the Chaos gods into different flavor coffee and drink them, which would kill them finally. He would turn all the spacemarines into painted minis that we all love to paint. He would turn the Orks into Canadians from South Park. He would turn the Eldar and Dark Eldar into mirrors that faced each other, reflecting upon themselves. For Mankind he make them all have visions of the Emperor being wounded by Horus everytime they blinked. Insane with purpose? That's Q!

Hello Majorkill,
Would you please make some lore videos on the Imperial Truth, the Imperial Creed, the Ecclesiarchy, and the High Lords of Terra? Pretty please? Thank you.
My favourite theory is that Vulkan haven't return yet because of how many times he had died already. His respawn timer is just insane
He used his buyback before.
He has the 5,000 year cooldown timer
Got that end game moba timer where it takes 2 full minutes to respawn but by then, your base is gone
Falling into a planet's atmosphere will do that to a person.
Maybe he's in a cave, resting after dragging himself there and is slowly rebuilding like how ego quickly rebuilt his body in guardians 2 but over 5000 years
“People die so much that the people who technically can not die still manage to die” is probably the best line I’ve heard this week.

Big E's reaction, probably "Yeah no shit, but there's already a name for that. It's called a perpetual."
"No I'm even bette-"
*Big E proceeds to psychic blast*
'I cast be quiet women!' *proceeds to pull Harry Potter out his ass and use him as an entire wand
Would be Lucius the Eternal be considered a perpetual since he regenerates every time he is killed?
Nah, Chaos gods bring back peeps they like all the time, no different with Lucius, just with grim dark extra steps.
His curse brings him back, if you cbt Slaashen and kill him without feeling any pride. He is as dead as a doorknob.
The fact that you used a panel from "Kill Six Billion Demons" at 6:32 just skyrocketed my mutual nerd respect for you.
So stoked for book 6!
@@brownhues may the wheel be smashed!
Yeah me Too .. especially since "Kill Six Billion Demons" would also be a awesome title for a Grey Knights Novell.
Imagine a perpetual Krieger.
basically an hour old Mr. Meeseeks
That's too evil of a fate
God that too grim dark for even 40k
I would pay in gold for a book 🤣
This is your best video I’ve seen in the last few months! Highly insightful
Woah, nice - that Daemonkiller looks great. I was very unpleased with your King Ork, as it is really a mean green space marine and doesn't fit the 40k Orks wild and ramshackle aesthetic at all, but this one is fantastic.
It really goes to show how violent and deadly the setting of Warhammer is when the guys who's entire thing is not being able to die, die.
06:34
Pls mention this is from kill six billion demons, one of the most interesting currently running webcomics, like a heavy metal album cover mixed with intense Hindu vibes.
Yes, finally... The Perpetuals!
I wonder what the 40k setting would of looked like if the other Perpetuals agreed to be his generals? I imagine something akin to the Tau, a bunch of superior versions leading the others to prosperity. 🤔
I think Chaos would of eventually got it due somehow but if they were already not liking Big E at the start of the Solar Crusade, I think some would get abit funny and I think killing buddies you knew for thousands of years would leave you a wreck.
It’s gotta be so weird being a regular dude perpetual but also having known the Emperor at some point in time.
Like, they’d have known each other for ages. They probably side regular every day stuff together. Fishing, playing COD or something. Like if you showed up to the Golden Throne in current day you could be like:
“So, been up to anything lately?”
“Same as it ever was” -translated from golden screaming
Smoking blunts with the emperor playing Risk
Even the King of Kings, the one true God of man, had a follower in this setting. That's cool.
Yeah ☦️❤️
“He’s about as natty as liver king”
Yes I enjoy this reference
I was waiting for this video for so long thank you Majorkill 🙃
lore on ecclesiarchy, high lords, and imperial navy please
I like the idea that the one thing that is keeping the emperor alive is the one thing that is preventing him from fully regenerating.
Didn't know that Frank Castle was a Perpetual, too. Joining the Guard was only natural to him(The Guard portrayed in the comic was drawn by the same guy who worked with Garth Ennis in his Punisher run twenty years ago: They look very much the same)
I like the idea from Baldemort's video about creation of the Emprah, that perpetuals were souls combined through ancient ritual. And this is why no more perpetuals were born after, since all shamans sacrificed themselves to make the Big E, nobody else could perform the soul merge ritual since
6:41 what’s that amazing art from?
Webcomic called "Kill Six Billion Demons"
@@J0hnHenrySNEEDenthank you
11:39 whats this song?
Perpetual regularly gets isekai'd by Tzeentch
Btw, the Emperor dies every day while on the throne, but because of his love and caring for humanity, CHOOSES to return to the Throne body every time. Dan Abnett explained this on an interview. Hella dark.
I wonder if he'll ever step of the throne and I wonder if the theory of him becoming a dark god is true. That would insane
other (could be) Perpetuals:
Sly Marbo?
Caldor Draigo?
Corvus Corax (after turning into a Shadow Raven Demon, hunting down Lorgar)?
Dante?
Sanguinius (Sanguinor)?
every Marine of the Legion of the Damned?
Asterion Moloc (Minotaurs)?
Love the idea of cuddlehammer
Would vulcan be the mascot my lord?
@@custodianguardofthemagyari216 Nurgle would be the mascot
I'm picturing a Majorkill plushie that is an actual hammer...to cuddle.
Sounds to me like the perpetuals could’ve really influenced the galactic setting in major ways, so GW wanted them either “miraculously” killed off, or sidelined permanently so that the continuous grimdark vibe of the 40k universe has no hope of changing. Which is understandable but still kinda frustrating considering there was a fair bit of character potential for some of the perpetuals.
If anything, the more the Perpetuals would of been the targets for Chaos intervention, also imo they seem like were too useless to do anything to prevent it.
If they couldnt even fight Big E, what hope they have.
hey man just wanted to say that today on my job i saw and old lady die which was really hard for me but this video definitely helped me thx mate
Wouldn’t Lucius from the Emperors Children technically count as a perpetual as well ?
Here's a question what if Erda before the great crusade was lunched, returned to the Emperor, the two official married and she is crowned Empress of Mankind?
I just caught the intros "Guys and gal" part and I love it
If Konrad hadnt been unlifed, im certain he and another perperual would be playing a permanent game of
Saw-Paradox-Billiards-Vostroyan-Roulette-Fourth-Dimensional-Hypercube-Chess-Strip Poker
Its interesting that the perpetuals seem to have control over their immortality, where they are able to give it away either partially or entirely.
I didn’t know the last of the Horus heresy books has just come out. I just started listening a couple months ago so I’m glad I didn’t have to wait!
John Grammaticus is like James Bond of 40K universe. Dude is always up on his toes... It sucks that he is no longer perpetual as he could still exist in M41...
Not trying to start fights, but if Magnus’ perpetual, killing attack, couldn’t kill the already pretty strong Vulcan doesn’t that make him the strongest Primark as he can defeat literally any of them by either not being able to be killed, over powering them, or both…?
Technically I'd say yes, due to the fact any Technical prowess he lost he could come back over n over again
You forgot one , Sly Marbo rejected the emperor, but said he was okay. The emperor was lucky to survive, I guess marbo saw something in him and ended up serving his cause later in life. Or lives.
We all know that Vulcan is just chilling near The Engine of Woes waiting for his children to finish his scavenger hunt
Oh and Corvus is there too writing edgy poems before going back to the warp and spawn trapping Lorgar
My head canon for Vulkan is that his dip in the Waaagh turned him into a Black Krork.
The are walking perpetually around for quite some time now.
Artefacts/treasures of Vulkan update and speculation on what they could be would be pretty cool ngl.
Who would have thought that the 12ft tall dude blacker than Don Cheadle would be world class at hide and seek
Just today I was wondering what the perpetual ones were and it's been a day since you uploaded this
Man being a perpetual or having born as a perputal is pretty much damn OP.
Q: What can actually kill a Perpetual?
A: A writer.
not getting it but putting up that QR code did make it easy for me to look into the product
Bruh I just ordered Kitten to Europe and you bring this guy out now? Damn it. I guess you have to ship another package....
Imagine if vulcan came back empowered by pure wagh energy
So his TTS version?
"how much it's improved" turns down brightness of the video to hide in the dark
him explaining how the emperor wanted to use the perpetuals as his generals really sounded like the tau
Perpetuals are wild and wacky. But what about traitor Guardsman regiments?
Is Anval Thorn related to Caius Thorn ? one of the main characters in 40k Inquisitor Martyr ? Also a Space marine of a secret chapter.
Did anyone notice when you skip one ad it doesn’t skip the 2nd one automatically anymore how it used too ???
I thought the last time I heard about Vulcan he was falling towards a planet from high orbit ? After being tortured by Konrad Cruze in the Horus heresy novel, correct me if I’m wrong please.

RIP Ollie Peters. "My lord shall not taste your wrath"
The one person who would wreak 40K is Q from the Star Trek series. Hands down. He would turn the Chaos gods into different flavor coffee and drink them, which would kill them finally. He would turn all the spacemarines into painted minis that we all love to paint. He would turn the Orks into Canadians from South Park. He would turn the Eldar and Dark Eldar into mirrors that faced each other, reflecting upon themselves. For Mankind he make them all have visions of the Emperor being wounded by Horus everytime they blinked.
Insane with purpose?
That's Q!
Tzeentch looks at Q "Aw how adorable. I think I'll play with this one for a few millenia before I'm bored."
... Sheogorath said while using Tzeentch as a sock puppet.
My head canon is Vulkan is in the lobby AFK eating chips
Isn't Henry Cavill in the new Highlander reboot? Maybe they'll just roll the history behind Highlander into Warhammer lore after that.
The grey knight has been written off because there is no model - if they rules a model and rules (which they should), he will return to more lore
Vulkan should be the next loyalist Primarch to return and thus get a model.
