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
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!
“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.
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.

@@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.

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.
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!"
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
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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 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.
"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*
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”
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
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.
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.
Yeah I think ya missed the point dude. The writers are clever to coin perpetual. I've never heard it before in narrative. Gods are immortal. Daemons are immortal and so are highlanders. What makes perpetuals different, they are mortal, despite their special sauce.
I'm sorry, Pius was born BEFORE Christ and yet is CATHOLIC? This dude legit predates Jesus and all but confirms the Peterine Doctrine of Papal Supremacy... That or they weren't thinking about timelines when writing him. Either or lmao 🤣
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
Bro, imagine if you will.... The WH40K lore is a precursor to what's coming!? I lol every time but what if....remember the lore was like we are the only.... then big daddy shows up!
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
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…?
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.
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.
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!!
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.
Hey so this ain't related to the video but so you know how the Primarchs' have Warp gods infused into them with it seemingly being the one related to their homeworld? So Fulgrim is named after his homeworld's god but he was swapped with the Khan by the Laughing God so doesn't that mean the Khan is the real Fulgrim? Also obligatory asking Majorkill for a Mini of Yarrick.
If I could write my own canonical, 40 K story. I would create a new perpetual character and suggest that one of his past identities was George Washington.
I dont like the concept or execution of the perpetuals in the HH. Most of them character wise I just find dull and or annoying but I don’t feel like they really fit in the setting or story. They feel a bit crowbarred in and poorly realized or thought through…. Also, on a tangent, I remember Abnett got a lot of praise for his ‘amazing twist’ in legion re Alpha legion reason for going along with HH but I feel now that also doesn’t really hold up or make sense….
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?
They really screwed over the story of Ollanius Pius. He was the perfect symbol of the Imperial Guard - a totally random dude who ultimately saved the Imperium, and the Emperor's life, by holding the fecking line against Horus for just one second longer before being flayed by god-tier evil sorcery he knew all along he couldn't beat. A normal man embodying the spirit of the Imperial Guard everyman. Making him into anything other than a normal courageous guardsman ruins it entirely.
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)?
Weren't the thousand sons so powerful because of their familiars? Basically the demons that helped them channel the warp while the demon waited for the opportunity to take over... which they did during the battle of Prospero It's part of why I say the emperor was justified at nikaea. Magnus and his kids weren't simply ignorant about the truth of the warp. They had been deliberately puppeted into believing the warp was different. One of the benign powers that magnus interacts with isn't actually a benign entity. It's a chaos God fucking with him. The whole thing is an orchestrated manipulation millenia in the making. Which makes me wonder if chaos cause the perpetual to abandon the emperor
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.
Wait, if the Cabal can just 'make' someone a perpetual, doesn't that mean Alpharius could have intentionally died to Rogal Dorn only to be revived when no one was looking?
For me the problem with perpetuals is that they’re just long lived humans.The human brain can only remember so much,so then what?yeah sure The Emperor is made up of a thousand beings,Vulcan has a god inside him.The rest no it doesn’t make sense without mind wipes or they’d all be insane
In all honessty, I'm glad that their gone. These perpetuals just seemed out of place in the story, and they kinda removed that special trait from the big E and Vulcan having this unique power. Not only that but the vast majority of them were made to be extremely unlikable and bitchy
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
The idea of Olly being alive for 50,000 years plus yet considering Jesus Christ to have been the one man he met in all that time worth worshipping despite Christianity dying out is so cool.
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.
You know now I think of it I feel abit sad for big e sure he was a arrogant an dself righteous asshole but to be honest there wasn't anyone who could guide him. He was the most powerful man ever NOT the most wise . He had no one he could call equal or stronger . He could only lead himself . I think the reason he wanted everyone to be like him is not just because he wanted to ascend all humans to a higher being but also because he just couldn't handle being alone anymore. He just wanted someone he could call his equal sad he never got a chance .
Wonder which side olianus pious was on in ww2. I mean joining a despotic tyrant bent on killing off heretics, the unclean,and xenos sounds a lot like mustache man
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)
That image of Malchador sitting on his throne looking all firey and shit. It has the roman numerals II and XI on it. I'm guessing this is a reference to the lost Primarchs. Is there an official explanation or decent fan theory to why Malchador has those two legions numbers on that throne?
Slow down and read the actual names correctly. They have letters that you're either completely ignoring or changing for some reason. It's clearly "Ollanius" (oh-LAAN-ee-us), but you keep leaving out the 'i'. Why? Also, the "ch" at the end of "Molech" is not pronounced like the "ch" in "chai". It's clearly a "k" sound - "moe-LEK". Try harder.
Man, I miss Erda. A crazy scary perpetual that used warp magic so old that Erebus himself could neither understand nor explain it. Magic old enough that is could banish FOUR greater demons! And then they just killed her off the next page. Fucking useless GW, you cowards.

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

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
With regards to natural perpetuals, they weren't all born around the same time - Malcador was only a few thousand years old by the time of the GC.
The same time in geological terms :)
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.
@majorkill, can you make a video on which chaos gods are the strongest in the current setting?
It's Khorn.
Khorne m8
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.
He's not a perpetual, he just wants to get p a i d.
Totally forgot about that guy
Chad Andrej - survives a cathedral dropping on him while simultaneously fighting off Orks, walks away with a headache
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.
The last church is one of my favorite stories... and I'm usually more of a fan of Tzeench or Omegon
6:32 That's from "Kill Six Billion Demons" comic book series.
I always wondered if they were connected to the universe. Like in a way they can come off like Daemons and other warp Demi-Gods.
The only way i want to die in 40k is getting crushed by a thick eldar thigh
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 🤣
Video starts 2:00
Thank you
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.
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.
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.
Several perpetuals are older than Emperor
@@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.
I think the idea of making the Emperor the source goes against what's cool about him actually having peers to begin with
"I am Vulk-Gon, Hugger of Worlds! Please forfeit your bodies into my tractor field and we will be Friends forever." - Vulk-Gon of Cuddlehammer
"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*
'I cast be quiet women!' *proceeds to pull Harry Potter out his ass and use him as an entire wand
You know… I’ll take this one as part two of Erda, thank you Majorkill.
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”
What book is that from? I missed it, but I'm suddenly very interested.
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
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.
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.
Wouldn’t Lucius from the Emperors Children technically count as a perpetual as well ?
Australia, or as it is known in America, far east Florida, gives us our own WH40K Death Jester, Majorkill.
Even the King of Kings, the one true God of man, had a follower in this setting. That's cool.
Yeah ☦️❤️
2:46 John Grammaticus once saw Big E's true form outside His golden image and freaked out.
Yeah I think ya missed the point dude. The writers are clever to coin perpetual. I've never heard it before in narrative. Gods are immortal. Daemons are immortal and so are highlanders. What makes perpetuals different, they are mortal, despite their special sauce.
6:59 the skulls have the 2nd and 11th plastered on it, possibly a reference to the lost primarchs
So you have 660 video right now….. when you post your 666 video what will the content be? Chaos or something pure evil?!
Malcador was a real one for not abandoning big E.
I'm sorry, Pius was born BEFORE Christ and yet is CATHOLIC? This dude legit predates Jesus and all but confirms the Peterine Doctrine of Papal Supremacy... That or they weren't thinking about timelines when writing him. Either or lmao 🤣
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
Bro, imagine if you will.... The WH40K lore is a precursor to what's coming!? I lol every time but what if....remember the lore was like we are the only.... then big daddy shows up!
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
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
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.
Why haven’t new perpetuals been born
They get eaten by Chaos demons
Love your majorkill keep up the good work you absolute mad lad
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.
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!!
Perpetuals are wild and wacky. But what about traitor Guardsman regiments?
14:27 Big E vs Cain
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.
Man being a perpetual or having born as a perputal is pretty much damn OP.
Isn't Henry Cavill in the new Highlander reboot? Maybe they'll just roll the history behind Highlander into Warhammer lore after that.
GW will bring back all the dead primarchs before they bring back Vulkan. GW doesn't even try to hide their hatred of the Salamanders.
Hey so this ain't related to the video but so you know how the Primarchs' have Warp gods infused into them with it seemingly being the one related to their homeworld? So Fulgrim is named after his homeworld's god but he was swapped with the Khan by the Laughing God so doesn't that mean the Khan is the real Fulgrim?
Also obligatory asking Majorkill for a Mini of Yarrick.
If I could write my own canonical, 40 K story. I would create a new perpetual character and suggest that one of his past identities was George Washington.
Do you think Sly marbo is a perpetual
Warhammer 40K is the Greatest single father parenting story of all time
9:16 Catholicism exists in the Imperium? Is that... heretical?
I dont like the concept or execution of the perpetuals in the HH. Most of them character wise I just find dull and or annoying but I don’t feel like they really fit in the setting or story. They feel a bit crowbarred in and poorly realized or thought through….
Also, on a tangent, I remember Abnett got a lot of praise for his ‘amazing twist’ in legion re Alpha legion reason for going along with HH but I feel now that also doesn’t really hold up or make sense….
I just hate how they write themselves out via suicide by Big E.
Also imo Erda power makes zero sense and actively feel like a smack.
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?
They really screwed over the story of Ollanius Pius. He was the perfect symbol of the Imperial Guard - a totally random dude who ultimately saved the Imperium, and the Emperor's life, by holding the fecking line against Horus for just one second longer before being flayed by god-tier evil sorcery he knew all along he couldn't beat. A normal man embodying the spirit of the Imperial Guard everyman. Making him into anything other than a normal courageous guardsman ruins it entirely.
They might make it better. We'll have to wait and see. I sure hope they don't ruin the lore which is a definite possibility.
Q: What can actually kill a Perpetual?
A: A writer.
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)?
Weren't the thousand sons so powerful because of their familiars? Basically the demons that helped them channel the warp while the demon waited for the opportunity to take over... which they did during the battle of Prospero
It's part of why I say the emperor was justified at nikaea. Magnus and his kids weren't simply ignorant about the truth of the warp. They had been deliberately puppeted into believing the warp was different.
One of the benign powers that magnus interacts with isn't actually a benign entity. It's a chaos God fucking with him. The whole thing is an orchestrated manipulation millenia in the making.
Which makes me wonder if chaos cause the perpetual to abandon the emperor
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
Wtf is up with that magnum dong bolter handle?
Timmy is the OG perpetual in the Majorkill verse
Timmy is a lost primarch
Wait, if the Cabal can just 'make' someone a perpetual, doesn't that mean Alpharius could have intentionally died to Rogal Dorn only to be revived when no one was looking?
Don't make the Alpha legion more confusing 😂
@@chrisspley99 we don't have the power to stop their shenanigans
For me the problem with perpetuals is that they’re just long lived humans.The human brain can only remember so much,so then what?yeah sure The Emperor is made up of a thousand beings,Vulcan has a god inside him.The rest no it doesn’t make sense without mind wipes or they’d all be insane
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.
In all honessty, I'm glad that their gone.
These perpetuals just seemed out of place in the story, and they kinda removed that special trait from the big E and Vulcan having this unique power.
Not only that but the vast majority of them were made to be extremely unlikable and bitchy
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
The idea of Olly being alive for 50,000 years plus yet considering Jesus Christ to have been the one man he met in all that time worth worshipping despite Christianity dying out is so cool.
Yo can you do a video in the mournival?
Bruh I just ordered Kitten to Europe and you bring this guy out now? Damn it. I guess you have to ship another package....
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.
Vulkan is just competing and trying to beat Jay Cutler at the Olympia, when he becomes “The King” he’ll return.
You know now I think of it I feel abit sad for big e sure he was a arrogant an dself righteous asshole but to be honest there wasn't anyone who could guide him. He was the most powerful man ever NOT the most wise . He had no one he could call equal or stronger . He could only lead himself . I think the reason he wanted everyone to be like him is not just because he wanted to ascend all humans to a higher being but also because he just couldn't handle being alone anymore. He just wanted someone he could call his equal sad he never got a chance .
Wonder which side olianus pious was on in ww2. I mean joining a despotic tyrant bent on killing off heretics, the unclean,and xenos sounds a lot like mustache man
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
lore on ecclesiarchy, high lords, and imperial navy please
Amazing idea: emperor is a perpetual. Just fuckin shoot him to put him on his respawn timer, he'll be back in a couple hundred years. Perfect.
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)
That image of Malchador sitting on his throne looking all firey and shit. It has the roman numerals II and XI on it. I'm guessing this is a reference to the lost Primarchs. Is there an official explanation or decent fan theory to why Malchador has those two legions numbers on that throne?
“He’s about as natty as liver king”
Yes I enjoy this reference
Is Anval Thorn related to Caius Thorn ? one of the main characters in 40k Inquisitor Martyr ? Also a Space marine of a secret chapter.
Slow down and read the actual names correctly. They have letters that you're either completely ignoring or changing for some reason. It's clearly "Ollanius" (oh-LAAN-ee-us), but you keep leaving out the 'i'. Why?
Also, the "ch" at the end of "Molech" is not pronounced like the "ch" in "chai". It's clearly a "k" sound - "moe-LEK".
Try harder.
"Erda doesn't exist. Shut up about it!" - Ecclessiarch Decius
Man, I miss Erda. A crazy scary perpetual that used warp magic so old that Erebus himself could neither understand nor explain it. Magic old enough that is could banish FOUR greater demons! And then they just killed her off the next page.
Fucking useless GW, you cowards.
