This video deserves more attention
Thank you for watching! I have more lore videos coming down the pipe
@@unclesamlore oooo, pray tell
Fabius dont serve Slanesh he DESPISE CHAOS. By the way. HEs a mad scientist driven by the desire to discover improve and save humanity above all else, since the begning. I dont know if you have read his books. But he clearly dont like the whole slanesh demon stravaganza thing.
Ahriman, Bile, Abadon, Khayon, those guys do not serve chaos. They use Chaos. Emperor of Mankind INCLUDED IN THIS LIST.
That been said, Chaos has its way to make things work their way. They dont have to worship chaos to do its biding, or claim your soul.
And theres the thing Bile have seens slanesh, while Ahriman have seen tzeench.
@@dreamcatcherben8214 more 40K, more video game videos (also my halo one), such like that. I’m just trying to found my footing but since I really
Enjoy doing lore that’s gonna be a mainstay here on out!
@@unclesamlore comparisons?
Personally I find nurgle far more terrifying- something about the concept of one’s very perception of good and evil, clean and dirty, beautiful and disgusting, being inverted on a fundamental level really… hits home
Oh yeah 10000% I can understand that. I really think nurgle is fascinating and I will probably make a video on the subject at some point! Thanks for watching!
@@unclesamlore Welcome. Always appreciate a good deep-dive
take a damn bath
@@spookrockcity No u
Personally, I find him to be the most insidious of bunch. He spreads suffering to people and offers them "salvation and love" for a measly price of their souls, while positing himself as a jovial kind grandpa. Until the moment you disappoint him
Slaanesh is also obsession, training an extra hour, getting to work 30 minutes before everyone else. There's a story where an inquisitor tortures some sisters because one of them was doing stuff like that.
Oh wow that’s, bizzarre holy cow
"your too dedicated, you pray too hard. For emperors sake take a day off I command it"
@@azathoththe3rdI read a story about the birth of slaanesh from the Eldar gods perspective, a fan made one I think, which said that Isha escaped the fall because her nature was of natural forces in balance, a moderate state, which placed her firmly outside of the corrupting powers of the she who thirsts, so I guess the mantra of all things in moderation is the best way to escape chaos corruption.
It's hilarious and disappointing to me that the only reason we don't get more Slaanesh representation in Warhammer media is because as soon as anything Slaanesh is on screen, the age rating would immediately spike from PG13/M15 to R18/X.
I'm glad you mentioned chaos favours in this video, because that aspect alone is why Slaanesh is my favourite Chaos god.
As I explained to one of my friends:
Khorne, Nurgle, and Tzeentch all ask you to prove yourself worthy of their blessings.
Slaanesh just throws them at you, grabs the popcorn, and watches to see if you can handle it or not.
If you can, they gain a new pawn.
If you can't, your suffering and agony fuels them and makes them more powerful.
Either way, Slaanesh wins.
EXACTLY THAT THS SCARIEST THING ABOUT SLAANESH TO ME! It’s so fascinating to look at honestly, thanks for watching!
But doesn't Nurgle also throw plagues indiscrimenately resulting in more followers? And doesn't Tzeentch trick people into seeking knowledge? I feel like none of the Chaos Gods put up any real entry barriers, but once you are in, Nurgle, Khorne and Tzeench want you to prove yourself worthy.
Which is a shame. Or even worse sometimes when they do have Slaanesh it's toned down heavily which imo ruins the whole thing about Slaaneshi followers
@@MrFredstt Slaanesh will have to be toned down if we ever wanna see her faction in the upcoming movie/tv show.
Or they could explore the otherways Slannesh corrupts people.
Sex, Drugs and Murder is how she got her claws into the Eldar.
With humans she seems to go for Hopes and Desires.
Like if they want to master the the sword, they will but all fights become dull (Lucius) or they will compose beautiful musi but be filled with a constant urge to craft something better. This ultimately causes them to have a either have a complete mental breakdown or they accept further blessings from Slannesh and its all downhill form there.
I think what ties everything about slaanesh together and what makes him a good opposite for khorne is the idea of self-gratification. Every sort of excess slaanesh's followers engage in is to indulge their own desires, and as they fall further their own desires and obsessions come to be all that matters to them. Contrast that with Khorne worship, which in its own way is a pretty strict set of values that his followers put aside whatever they might have cared about before in order to live up to. It's a pretty common theme for khorne characters to go through a loss of self and basically become more like khorne as they fall further, whereas slaanesh characters turn into twisted and depraved versions of themselves.
EXACTLY! You hit the nail on the head that is a fantastic analysis. Thanks for watching!
You can see that in the way a follower of each god sees preview of their god.
For Khorne, their followers always more and more blood. Blood for the blood god, skulls for the skull throne. For every life they take there’s always want more.
For slaanesh, the pursuit of pleasure and perfection is both at its peak and never, ever, EVER enough.
That’s why a cultist of khorne may tear your head off and immediately want abother, while for slaanesh, torturing you for pleasure that will never be enough
SO basically, if Slaanesh was consent conscious they'd have way more followers?
Yeah but like do we agree Sigvald is Slaanesh's favorite child? Every other champion becomes an unholy abomination but he gets to keep his salacious buttocks intact.
Sigvald is amazing and I wish we had an equivalent in 40K. Lucius and Fulgrim definitely are in the cards but sigvald is just pure evil. Thanks for watching!
@@unclesamlorethere is acually a 40k equvalent of sigvald. His name is cesare and slaanesh kept his youth intact because they thought he was hot.
@@anothershyguy Either you mistyped or you made that up, because I can't find anything under that name.
@@Numinon nah man, i was wrong. I thought he was a space marine in 40k. My bad.
Admitting to being incorrect rather than just deleting your comment so people have context. Respect 🫡
Slaanesh’s themes of pride, avarice, vanity, perfection of form and talent, and even non-sectual sensation could be much more well explored.
A follower of khorne wants to cave in the skull of a worthy opponent, seen their body destroyed. A slaaneshi cultist wants their form to perect, for it to be the most brilliant and elegant parry, that they looked amazing doing it.
EXACTLY YOU GET IT. I really want the nuance of slaanesh to be explored, as that makes it infinitely scarier.
Thanks for watching!
In another words, is a insidious thing, becouse it can come from anything, and come in slices
Like, take a married man, he got a nice life, a nice wife, a nice daugher, a nice sob and a nice dog
But he feels like the sex Is a bit bland and wants some better action, one say he have a dream, in that he see some things New and when wake UP, he remenber that
Them he does just that and both he and his wife enjoys the sex, sleep better and their following day is great, becouse they feel great
Them they do It again, but this time for a longer time, but the sex lasts a bit more to reach the same level If joy, same results next day: better day and better sleep
They keep doing It, but gradually the sex tales longer to yield the same pleasure, until they have a dream about doing something a little more violent to each other
The wake up, remenber and do It, the results great, but with time It is not enough
Them another dream: another small add on to the sex, the wake up, same story
Them It is not enough and the cycle repeats
Until one day, they dream about bringing the dog to the fun, same story and the dog is ok with It
Them It is not enough, them they have a dream about bringing the son and daugher to It
It Works and noé the whole family and the dog are in an orgy, the pleasure is great, until It is not enough
Then, they have a dream about more ferishes in the orgy, they wake up and try that out, It works, but some scars remain, not a big Deal and they got their pleasure, great day, great sleep
Until It is not enough and next add on leaves more and bigger scars
Them they dream about doing It with other people, with their consent of course, so they bring in close relatives and them friends, everyone enjoy It
Until It is not enough
Them they have a dream about doing It with other people, regardless of consent
They enjoy It, the victims, not so much, some even die, they feel bad, but the next pleasure washes the guilt away, they even do some extra scarring to each other, to compensate that and fundo out that pain also brings joy
Until It is not enough
Them they decide bring sex and pain to the dog, the son, the daughter, close relatives and close friends, becouse since they enjoyed sex, they will enjoy the pain, right ?
Until It is not enough
Them they include everyone else
Until It is not enough
Flash forward, they are bring Joy to you, but all you see is a couple of maniacs that ate their dog, son, daughter, father, mother and many others whole raping and torturing them and are trying to do the same to you
For them, they are just trying to have a nice day
Yeah 🧐
I have a theory that the birth of Slaanesh was what created Chaos as we know it today. Before Slaanesh, the Chais Gods were not referenced very much, meaning they didn’t hold much sway on the matters of the material realms. It’s likely the other Chaos Gods were more characteristic of their more “good” attributes. Khorne was about honor, Tzeentch change, and Nurgle the cycle of life. Then when Slaanesh appeared, her very birth and presence caused them all to become the extreme of the extreme of themselves. Khorne now only cares that the blood flows regardless of who it is. Tzeentch sows discord through plots and schemes, distrust and deceit. Nurgle creates eternal stagnation and rot.
Slaanesh’s birth through excess drove the other Chais Gods to be the excess of themselves. That imo makes Slaanesh the most powerful and truly evil Chaos God.
I never thought about that, it is a interesting possibility! Thank you for watching!
I recall reading a fan theory that before the birth of Slannesh the other three of the big four were minor aspects of their domains held in check by the other Gods and especially the great Gods of the Eldar. When Slannesh demolished the Eldar pantheon the big four came to power and literally consumed or imprisoned all the other gods of the warp. The notable exceptions obviously being each other, Big E, and the forces of loony toons power known as GORk & MORK! Fun bit of trivia apple autocorrect put both of those as all caps. Autocorrect knows how to WAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!
@@unclesamlore there is a part of the lore where the Golden Age of Techonology is when Tzeentch reached his peak and being the most powerful chaos god. Khorne and Nurgle at the time had to gang up on him and Tzeentch being the bastard he was, let that happen on purpose. it was long before Slannesh's birth
The Chaos Gods have never had "positive" aspects. That's just pure fanon. They corrupt all those positive aspects and always have since they came to be.
I wonder why no one in the galaxy wants to eradicate eldar for birthing it.
I love this, but Nurgle scares me the most. It's the idea of being completely aware of my body being puppeteered against my will and being unable to control myself as I infect everyone around me is just AWFUL
Oh yeah I understand, but it doesn’t scare me as much because at least then I know the pain goes away😂
@@unclesamlore I think that would scare me even more- like a dream you can never wake up from driving you mad. At least when you feel pain you know everything’s real
@unclesam1637 Only if you become a Plague Marine/Daemon Prince of Nurgle. If you are tainted or have the Mark of Nurgle you'll still feel some pain and discomfort.
Nothing against your will about it. That’s part of the horror. Nurgle followers genuinely come to believe they’re honest and righteous and want everyone to join them.
Ya and the worst part is that you don’t care.
It's not the ones that survived it's the Aeldari that fled early on. The ones that survived were in Commorragh.
Riiiiight yes my bad! I am not super familiar with the eldar I need to read more books about them
@@unclesamloreValedor
Correct me if I'm wrong but the Craftworlds basically existed as merchant clans, traveling between the Aeldari worlds. As such, they spent more time alone in space and not on the Aeldari worlds that would grow gradually more extreme. Rather than slipping into depravity, they saw snapshots of this behavior and thus didn't take part as heavily. And being these vessels for trade between worlds, they were much more likely to escape the Birth of Slaanesh simply because they weren't planetside, where things were worst, and were more likely to be outside the central Aeldari Empire where the Eye of Terror formed.
The Exodites are Eldar equivalents of Eldar space Amish, using base tech, who ride Dinosaurs, sadly have no stats outside of 2nd edition, that I know of. Still easy enough to home brew.
Edited.
@@unclesamlore if you like slaanesh, then you should read everything you can about all the eldar factions, slaanesh is such an intrinsic part of their story/culture.
We can all agree that Khorne is the least evil towards his victims.
The other chaos gods are a lot worse.
10000%. At least you get what what you paid for 😂. Thanks for watching!
@@unclesamlore For followers of chaos I think Nurgle is the best god to worship.
Khorne turns his followers into addicts.
@@Turnil321 I'd say turned into baser creatures bent on their primal instincts: that of killing.
Slaanesh is the one who inevitably turns you into an addict, as you crave more and more of... well.. everything.
@@gejnormcswipe8435 But if the followers of Khorne can not kill they go mad or is that just the butcher's nails?
@@Turnil321 Generally, they gradually lose tactical sense, favoring more direct forms of combat over time.
I think the butchers nails are an extra addition to that which does drive them insane eventually.
But there are Khorne worshipers without any nails.
There are also exceptions to the first sentence, Khorne champions who retain their martial senses and hold to tactical ideas, they just let them slip when the battle is joined.
Listen to All the Gods are Dead by A Vox In The Void. It’s an audio drama from the perspective of a farmer as his agriworld is invaded by a regiment of the Imperial Guard that has fallen to Slannesh. Terrifying and mesmerizing is a great way to describe Slannesh for sure.
Ill have to! That sounds really cool. Thanks for watching!
Slaanesh is the deity of excess. If you want to play with the psychology of your characters and fill them with guilt, regret, depression, paranoia and others Slaanesh is really a the nightmarish deity of all the four
You can go fully joungian with Slaanesh.
EXACTLY! It’s the scariest part of the human existence, and it’s definitely one of the main reasons I find slaanesh scary. Thanks for watching!
Both Slaanesh and Khorne are a different type of nihilism. Khorne is an admittance that there is no purpose in life, therefore violence is the greatest expression of that emptiness. There is nothing but blood, and blood flows to an ironic peace for the blood god.
Meanwhile, if Khorne was a black hole of purpose, Slaanesh is a whirlpool of it. Slaanesh looks at the void and says, "more". Purpose is found in the small moments that lead to massive climaxes of pain and pleasure. And that folds onto itself more, and more, and more.
I think a lot of people forget exactly how Slaanesh was born, it wasn't the raw emotions exactly, but the desire for purpose in state of being that had one. The pleasure cults of the Eldar came from a lack of purpose, a lack of drive towards something other than the excess they would begin to have.
And that's to me what makes Slaanesh so dangerous, Slaanesh sees the person looking up at the stars, wishing for more and says "let me show you..."
That is the best description of slaanesh I have heard, wow. That’s really freaky, cudos! Thanks for watching!
One good thing about Slaanesh, if a Dark Eldar dies, there souls goes straight to her.
Dark eldar be cringe innit, thanks for watching!
I seriously do not understand why writers never take the "using pleasure to cope with pain" angle when describing Slaaneshi corruption.
I think they did that in fantasy, but I’m surprised not in 40K. At least I haven’t seen that as of late. Thank you for watching!
Actually it’s ridiculously prensent in age of sigmar. In it their are even slannesh cultists that deprave themselves of pain and pleasure because even that is extremely excessive. Not to mention it focuses way more on this and the sex cult thing is more of a outlier. It’s still there just not as prominent and profound.
Back in the day, I did some shrooms.
I spent maybe a straight hour just contemplating the Warp and Chaos. I remember.. everytime I would dwell on the idea of a particular Chaos God, all the colours around me would shift very noticably toward the colours often associated with said Chaos God.
Sickly green, blood red, deep blue, and violent purple.
Oh my god, that sounds genuinely spooky, I hope your okay! Thank you for watching!
Bro dipped his toes in the Warp💀
Careful m8, sounds like you being interested in them caused *them* to take an interest in you.
There was I story I read once where a Chaos Psyker asked a corrupted Nobel why he choose to worship Slaanesh in particular, to which he said something like:
_Why would you even ask such a question? Why wouldn't I worship Slaanesh?!_
_She doesn't ask me to launch crusades in her name, she doesn't ask to slaughter entire worlds. All she asks is that I have fun, that I enjoy my steak, that I enjoy my companions(sex slaves), and be happy with life._
The problem is that you'll never be satisfied, you'll always be forced to take it to new self-destructive heights.
Just look at what Slaanesh worship did to Charlie Sheen and Madonna.
OMG😂😂 thank you for watching!
slaanesh is very marketable,kinda getting tired of people thinking marketing is just selling things to kids and familys,also from what ive noticed about humans is that kinda like slaanesh they always want what they don't have or cant have,why grown men gravitate to childish things and why kids gravitate to adult things
Oh yeah I notice that too, it’s those who feel deprived who end up falling to slaanesh. It’s fascinating tbh, thanks for watching!
Slaanesh gives that hint of relatability. We all want to be great at something, at least most of us do. The idea that your passions, your love, the things that drive you can contort your very soul into something hellish and unrecognizable...it touches on something we understand, something that's already in us.
thats what scares me the most about slaanesh easily. The slippery slope. Thanks for watching!
There should be less of a focus on lust for Slaanesh they represent 6 of the deadly sins(wrath is Khorne’s) imagine a swordsman who devoted to slaanesh and mastering the blade they ignore all distractions but the moment they don’t end the fight they wanted they go into a fury becoming more of a monster than a man.
Oh my gosh that sounds so cool, I would love that. Thank you for watching!
Technically wrath isn’t Khorne’s alone. That’s why they’ve hated each other since the days of WH:Fantasy. An angry warrior fuels Khorne yes, but if he looses himself in his bloodlust the excess goes to Slannesh.
Wrath isn't actually Khorne's. Someone who only feels comfortable when giving in to the excesses of rage and destroying stuff for their own pleasure belongs to BOTH gods.
There is a reason the other chaos gods fear slaanesh for there can only be so much war decay and change before something gives. With slaanesh there is no end to the depravity that one can dive into.
exactly, thats what makes them so dangerous in my mind. Thanks for watching!
Slaanesh took a while to grow on me. Originally Tzeentch and Nurgle were the more creepy ones for me, but as I've gotten older Slaanesh and Khorne are the ones. Slaanesh for all the reasons you described, but Khorne for reasons I find hard to explain. The scale of suffering Khorne is capable of inflicting by fanning the flames of war and spreading violent hatred I think is unequaled.
That is true, I really do need to explore khorne more as he seems deceptively simple. Thanks for watching!
All thought all chaos gods have disturbing things about them, but Slaanesh is likely the most disturbing.
Yep, it’s implied what could happen is infinitely scarier to me. It’s so disgusting and disturbing and I cannot explain it. Thanks for watching!
@@unclesamlore Yes, since we often hear what kind of painful and sadistic methods Slaanesh is about similar to the Drukhari.
@@vintageman91dark Eldar are slaanesh followers without the allegiance to them.
I get you man. The Imperials have more stories than all other factions combined, and that is including factions like Mechanicum.
There are Imperials guard characters with more novels about them than some factions.
I wish for more chaos and xenos novels. Imperium right now has around 150 novels about them, if not more. While Necros have at most 5, Genestealers 2 at best.
Give me more World Eaters. Give me More night lords. give me more Orks, Tau, Eldar, Tyranids, Necrons, guve me more everything, make Imperium antagonists/victims in these novels but please focus on other factions.
Same man, there are stories to be told I just wish we saw them. Some of the most interesting stuff comes from the TTRPG source books. Bile is great but, I want more spooky slaanesh stuff imo. Thanks for watching!
I think tzeentch is the most terrifying chaos god. He is basically the strongest. He can fuck with ur mind putting you in a state of constant schizophrenia. And worst you have no idea if or when he'll tirn on you. He will betray you for no logical reason.
Oh yeah that’s freaky too, but it’s offset by my brain seeing him affixed with a giant troll face perpetually 😂 thanks for watching!
Slaanesh is the one true alternative to the imperium of man.
Excess is the path to wisdom of all things.
Think of the utilitarian nature of the imperium… every man is a means to an end and no play in between.
Tell me what is man, what is art or even play in such an empire?
Luxury, art and excess are are alternatives to the utilitarian nature of that accused empire of false people.
Like art that rebels against utility in what it admits is useless so does luxury, but a cake and enjoy it when you are barely persisting on the scraps you manage? Now be mocked by those more in that means mock you for ‘not being economical enough’ ‘you could’ve bought 3 days of food for that cake’
A luxury is a luxury because of the extent you go for it and the experience you get from it. To a man in a desert a cup of tap water is a delicacy… to anyone else it’s foot wash or mouth wash… and yet where is that oh so present ‘you aren’t being economical enough’ when it comes to that? They never soak a towel and trim off the water to scrub with such little water while demanding others the opposite. A petty thing but not as petty as their denial of chaos in all its forms just petty enough to creep past that oh so pleasant vital lie that facade they keep up that they are utilized and not squandered as much as they squander and criticize others of squandering.
Play, art, excess and the Dionysian spirit all form culture the very soul of a man the same soul that the empire destroyed across stars across their own followers and citizens especially on Monarchia.
The empire of man under the emperor is by all means a culture of servitors, a culture a race that even the tyranids would look down in pity for the lack of individuality.
It’ll be better for Horus to have won and drive the imperium into the warp rather than the emperor still stand.
The only thing keeping a heart beat in that dull husk ill befit thing to call a corpse is that Guiliman is the one leading it and not the emperor.
In all seriousness this is fun to write and I hope you had fun of concern when reading, remember: pleasure and pain are both moving factors of life and the only state that isn’t a moving factor is sleep; so to be free of pleasure or pain is to be akin to sleep or dead.
Take joys in all things for joy itself is the root of excess be it pleasure or pain for joy is separate of these things and once your spirit sings and dance in both the sun and the rain you too will see nothing change with the weather or the skies.
Wow that is really well written I loved that. I appreciate your kind and wise words, thank you for watching!
@@unclesamlorethank you ^^
I made the comment as more of a thing for fun, I have a OC that kinda just covers these things and I just channel that character and everything I’ve studied for making the character into these.
Ah yeah, crazy rants from fellow cultists, I love to see it 😈
You're hired. 😁
Beautiful!
As someone who loves Slaanesh this was a treat!
I do agree that Slaanesh needs more respresentation in the game and lore. I am a big emps children simp, however i still think that Khorne is easier to fall to.
At least in the perspective of 40K "there is only war" ect ect
That is true, I think khorne has more lure towards warriors, but the average Joe could fall to slaanesh easier to me at least. Thanks for watching!
The majority of human people in the 40k universe aren't actually warriors even though that's what we focus on. "There is Only War" isn't entirely true, and even if it is the production machine that fuels the war effort is just as important as the war itself. The agricultural laborers, bureaucrats, and factory workers of the imperium probably care more about Feeling Really Good than they do BLOOD SACRIFICE
Slaanesh is best girl/boy/entity! And it's most relatable why people join the pleasure cults since every other god needs you to be pretty much a wacko to even get interested in (anger issues with Khorne, desperation with Nurgle and just being a nerdy dork with Tzeench) but everyone likes doing well, nice things, good food, beautiful people and having a good time.
Well yeah everyone wants a good time, but it’s far too much of one😂 thank you for watching!
And find new experience. That's also what Slaanesh about.
Tzeentch scares me. Your mind falling into an endless knot of madness is scary. Psychosis and constant terrified confusion.
I need to read more about tzeench, I’m really excited for space marine 2 to see more of them and the thousand sons! Thanks for watching!
Khorne is way better..
Atleast his daemons kill you as fast as possible.
@piercethroughheart5700 Absolutely. I feel like even if one cut me in half, they'd do it vertically. Just the most physical destruction as quickly as possible. The other three are all way worse.
@@piercethroughheart5700 that seems a bit more pleasant than a weekend at fulgrims to be fair. Thanks for watching!
Its exactly what you said- the horror of slaanesh lies in the fact that what they need to sustain themselves is something that will never really go away. Every sentient species, specially those who rise to power and rule over the galaxy, like the aeldari once did and humanity right now, came into being because they were ambitious and desired more and more. They were never sated with the power they had and they just kept going. its intrinsically a part of their existence. More resources, bigger armies, richer palaces, more luxuries- the list goes on. And because of this, slaanesh is just that easy to fall to. It could start from a simple attempt at self improvement and get dragged into a pit of dark and horrifying things, and you would never even notice the spiral. Of the 4, slaanesh is horrifying in a way that feels palpable to me. And that's scary.
Yeah exactly, and you basically explained everything I said except much faster 😂 thank you for watching!
That's the true terror of Chaos: they are not true deities, they are conglomerations of emotions and ideas, and you empower them even if you don't have any relationship with them.
One way or another Slaanesh bothers everyone.
And it pleases him, or her.
There were three types of Aeldari/Eldar who survived the fall:
The Craftworld Aeldari/Eldar, the ones mentioned being in planet/moon sized void ships far enough away.
The Drukhari or Dark Eldar, who survived by being in the Webway at the time.
And finally the Exodites: Aeldari who foresaw the coming fall and left the core worlds for far flung Maiden Worlds where they could isolate themselves from the galaxy at large.
I keep forgetting about the exodites! They do not really appear much so they slip my mind a bit. Thank you for watching!
And the harlequins.
Does Bile even count as a slaaneshi marine? I mean he doesn't worship the chaos gods, and the guy is so athirstic demons feel physical pain in his presence.
Maybe? Idk he certainly does the perfection stuff and makes abominations so I would say he counts. Thanks for watching!
Atheistic.
He dont... he dont follow slanesh nor any chaos gods. Well not direct. But his obssession with saving man kind with his new man clearly get the praise from her.
He does. Much like how Magnus (in a lot of books) and Ahriman (ditto) hate the idea of being someone’s puppets yet are still considered the favourites of Tzeentch, Fabius is one of Slannesh’s favourites. His ego, desire for perfection, willingness to keep experimenting more and more and more, his excesses and contradictions and desires due but him in that category.
If Bile is a chaos worshipper because he strives for perfection, or has his own goals, then so is pretty much everyone......
Bile himself doesn't believe in Chaos being divine, he acknowledges its existance but he worships nothing (maybe science, maybe)
Your terror will satisfy the Dark Prince!
i can imagine😂 thank you for watching!
Certainly Slaanesh and the Dark Eldar would set off more alarms for parents than the other factions but I am not sure WH40K should be marketed to young children to begin with. Especially playing as a chaos faction.
It is definitely something that should be for teens and young adults, and to that end subtly isn't something Slaanesh's excess revels in but it can be used to get across points that aren't too outrageous for a sixteen year old to handle.
Honestly at that age they're probably being exposed to much worse on the demon box we all carry around in our pockets.
Oh yeah I agree, but considering that young kids enjoy warhammer on the model side, it’s not a stretch to think they read a book and see something a parent would find objectionable. Either way thanks for watching!
I’m gonna have to agree with you on this. Angron, Mortarion and Magnus, among all their soldiers, would probably make it quick.
I think I’d legitimately Alt+F4 myself if I knew Fulgrim or any of Slaanesh’s little gimps were after me, and I don’t even want to think of the reasons why.
YUUUUUP. It absolutely terrifies me. Thank you for watching!
And considering it's Magnus, he would take you captive if you are a psyker, and perhaps even recruit you.
@@TheGoodLuc I'm not exactly sociably sound when it comes to confronting giant wizards, but it wouldn't hurt to try the diplomatic approach.
There is that one cool fan story on 1d4chan called Imber - Chapter 2 and it is about a guardsman doing a propaganda interview video for the Tau Empire about the time he spent in a Slaanesh cult and funny enough it shows how it is to be part of it without actually getting to details. Mostly that either stuff he was talking about were so scary to him that he would not elaborate or through "viewer friendly" censorship of Propaganda Departament of Tau Empire, like when he was talking about a Plauge Marine that shared with him the secret of the universe, which was censored becouse it was so wack, but what that poor block was scared about the fact that the plauge marine in question was not what he said, but that he didnt really care about it. The most slaaneshy thing in that story was sentence without any details that he banged his equivalent of sergeant and how she got a blessing in a form of an extra eye on her palm, so the first thing she did with it was poking it for that weird feeling of poking an eye on your palm and than she gouged it out.
Cool read I must say.
Oh wow I’m gonna have to read that! Thanks for the recommendation and thanks for watching!
1d4chan my beloved
I find the Khorne/Slaanesh rivalry to be very interesting, because honestly, they have some of the most overlap between any two chaos gods.
Oh yeah absolutely. Both are two sides of the coin. Thanks for watching!
They act towards perfection for two different reasons.
Meanwhile I'm out here trying to sell my soul for crab claws and elite painting skills
well hey, at least you got something goin there 😂 thanks for watching!
In the Siege of Terra, the Slaanesh depiction was quite prominent. Instead of joining the disciplined siege, fulgrim and the 3rd legion got bored and instead rampaged across the enormous hives of terra, harvesting and playing with billions of humans. This also reflects why the Slaanesh role in 40k isnt as strong, war requires cool rational coordination which is boring for junkies that used to constant excessive stimulation. Slaanesh however ultimately does more damage than war and paves the way for it in the form of pleasure corruption of civilization. Bringing dowm one of the strongest factions in the setting is an insane feat. The imperium cannot experience the same cuz its under too much external threat and so cannot fall to degenerate decadence. In irl history, civs fall thru internal hedonism leading to mass inflation and inequality and them rebellion and war. So slaanesh goes first in corruption while khorne and nurgle last.
That’s fair I didn’t think about that. It would make sense for them to be just a bunch of goobers anyhow. Thanks for watching!
What I find curious about Slannesh, it’s the only one to have the title “Prince of Chaos”. I think there’s more behind it for why the youngest Chaos God is considered a threat to the much older three. All of them represent the Primordial Truth, Slannesh as Desire has the common and closest emotion humans have in themselves in all parts of life. Slannesh can corrupt that with ease. It’s whole androgynous form is likely a reflection of Slannesh’s own want to be everything in existence even encompassing the Chaos Gods roles themselves. They are all very frightening in every way, it just happens Slannesh has the most insidious side.
Yep exactly, slaanesh in a weird way represents all of chaos in some aspects. It’s just so much all the time I can’t not look at it. Thanks for watching!
As a soul consuming dragon (I online roleplay a fair bit), what Slanesh represents is making the best of whatever situation you're in.
The perfect example of this is Death in Puss in Boots: The last Wish. What does this film show? That Death is delighting in Puss's fear. They're toying with their prey. It's not about killing Puss. It's about seeing what they're made of. Meanwhile Khorne would just kill you.
Harsh situations can quickly become intimate. The best comes from the worst. It happens in real life often enough. Would people prefer it's about death and destruction instead? People that break and learn to do better in the worst are stronger for it. That just needs fleshing out more with Slaanesh.
Yeah that’s a really good parallel! I like that! Thanks for watching!
Although they're "about" Fabius Bile, the one EC who *doesn't* worship Slaanesh and hates the Chaos Gods, the Fabius Bile trilogy is filled with great little EC moments and characterization, so it might be what you're looking for. I'm going through "Clonelord" right now and there's a whole battle sequence where as an incidental detail one of the Chaos Marines keeps stopping to scalp fallen Space Marines, and when questioned about it he mentions that it's because they have great hair and he hasn't decided what to do with it yet but it just seems like a waste to throw it away
Just "bohemian college art student" mentality coming from a psychotic millennia-old supersoldier
Oh sick! Those have been on my list for a while, I really wanna listen to those. I’m currently listening to the lords of silence as prep for my nurgle video and I’m falling in love with it. I plan on covering some space marine legions and such, EC potentially being one but I’m still trying to come up with a timeline of videos for stuff to cover. Thanks for watching!
I agree Slaanesh is the scariest Chaos God. The reason for me is simple: it embodies excess agony, decadence and depravity. So as someone who in the past has had a fear of Hell (and sometimes still gets it) and looks back on medieval torture methods and some of the horrific things pychopaths and serial rapists have done to their victims, Slaanesh would embody the very worst of all that.
I think each chaos god does bring their own horror, but yeah Slaanesh is more than just 'oooh sexy temptation', and I kind of wish the daemons of Slaanesh had more variety because you could go in so many directions, like with Tzeentchian daemons
I totally agree slaanesh is horrifying.
I have a kinda specific thing, that i find her terrifying for...at least her followers. And its Sexual insanity...idk if its a term at all, but just think about it, as an addict after a while basic things become boring and you have to go to more extreme stuffs and those extreme stuffs become boring aswell if you do them a lot...yeah and i'm not saying look up porn sites or anything but the messed up stuff and fetishes that can be there really shows me how much of a degenerate someone can become. And the thought of it kinda terrifies me. On the surface its pretty funny and weird but just think of how much of a low point someone has to be on to like some...things. The stuff people are sometimes up to never fails to scare me. (also yeah i think sexual themes are among the themes of slaanesh its not like gw can wash it off now lmao)
Also does anyone know the Crossed comics? If yes then imagine the infected from there, thats how i imagine a basic slaanesh cultist. The utter wild insanity
Oh yeah it’s ridiculous, but I think beyond that it’s just how alluring slaanesh can be that makes it scary. It makes me genuinely spooked, thanks for watching!
@@unclesamlore thanks for uploading! I really enjoyed it. Slaanesh is my favourite chaos god tbh mostly for the aesthetics but the themes are cool aswell. And i too hope we see more of her.
The crossed comics disturbed my soul badly. NGL.
Its just utter disturbing.
I don't have better words.
@@piercethroughheart5700 i know the feel, and same but i cant lie i love how tense and messed up it can get. Also the characters are very well written lmao
Slaanesh has always been my favorite in part because I find it to be the most horrifying. Slaanesh's brand of evil is, I think, the most human of the chaos gods. It's the best and worst parts of ourselves taken to horrific extremes. Of every wicked thing a human has ever inflicted on another, how much of it do you think falls under the purview of The Dark Prince?
Anything that is taken to a ridiculous extreme. And the motivations behind it, at least in my opinion anyway. Thank you for watching!
Fulgrim: "You know, funny thing is I know you're playing me. But you're right."
YUUUP😂
Something i found deeply horrifying about Tzeech, is the fact that they represent Hope.
The idea that in the grimdark futere where there's only war, those few that resist the bleakness and rebel against the horrors of the universe with all their will and somehow keep dreaming that things /could/ get better (or at least that it is possible to live and see something, ANYTHING good in their horrible circumstances), it's unknowingly worshipping The Everchanging One, and in any moment they could very well turn into chaos abominations or sleeper agents.
The father in a hive world that choose to burn a little more oil for their lamps so he could pass some extra time with his family, the imperial navy engineer who enlisted herself to the ship because she wanted to be a part of the heroes of humanity, the bureaucrat that's serving the Inquisitor because he knows that doing so is the best way to bring a little more light to the galaxy, the older sister of a family of refugees living in the slums of a farm world that tries so hard to give confort to her siblings assuring that things will get better... All of them are under Tzeech eyes because they dared to hope in the grimdark, all of them are destined to become their playthings, and to ultimately destroy everything they hoped.
And that's why i think Tentacles "all-as-planned" McTeeths is the most bleakest of the chaos gods.
Oh my god that’s horrifying. I’m gonna make tzeench video now, (I already was going to but now I’m even more excited to!) thanks for watching!
And add further into the horror any who follow slaanesh must do everything they can to experience new emotion and sensation after that they get board of it and start all over in a never ending coster of depravity and madness
EXACTLY, it’s not just something you fall into. The fact that it’s a choice makes it all the scarier. Thanks for watching!
100% agreed. To me, Slaanesh is the most disturbing. Id rather be a nurgling or a cruel experiment of Tzeentch. Hell, getting killed by a Khorn demon is the best fate.
But being captured by a Slaaneshi demon is the worst fate that can happen to you.
Exactly, I would rather deal with anything else than become a daemonettes chew toy. Thanks for watching!
I'd rather be decapitated by a Khorne demon than captured and tortured by a Slaanesh demon
Absolutely crispy Sam
A great example of how easy it is to fall to slaneesh is in Dante’s book a navigator falls and gets possessed for just wanting a cup of wine
REALLY? I gotta read that then, especially since I need to explore the blood angels more. Thanks for watching!
@@unclesamlore anytime homie
If you go for the guy hailey books highly recommend just reading them as the Va just fucks over certain characters voices I enjoyed the mephiston books and guy Haley is really good at writing Dante
If you want just a fun goofy romp from like 20 years ago read the comic blood quest that is peak 3rd ed 40k
I am happy to hear someone who thinks the same as me. I've always said that Slaanesh is the most horrifying (and disgustingly understandable) of the gods. Of all fiction in my opinion.
Imagine yourself, after indulging and indulging in your craft, having a breath of clarity. having your eyes shocked to see your surroundings, your actions, your scarred skin. Being forced by fear, shame, and defeat to continue in your corruption instead of admitting the naked and true ruinous reality of what you have become.
Exactly. The other gods hve finite resources potentially, there is no limit to crazy. Thanks for watching!
I think that the relative absence of Slaanesh in the modern lore of Wh40k has also a in universe reason (besides the obvious marketing cause you mentioned). Slaanesh is the most passive of the chaos gods on the front of conquering the galaxy, destroying the Imperium etc. Slaanesh is more invested in the Great Game between the chaos gods and gaining relatively more power and pleasure for himself/herself at the expense of other gods. It's also the reason why Fulgrim isn't more active in the current timeline of the 40k. It has been illustrated in the WHFB The End Times.
True! That is something I did not consider. Thank you for watching!
While the pointy ears pride themselves to be superior
*they gave birth to a chaos god*
Eldar and arrogance is like peanut butter and jelly😂 thanks for watching!
Saltzpyre: You should never grade Evils, because if one is the worst, you might be tempted kinship with the least.
Very very true, thanks for watching!
This shows why I hate when people pretend the Chaos Gods have positive sides.
They don't, they purposefully corrupt all the concepts they are involved with.
Eh, idk. I feel like there are positive aspects of what they represent, the just get overshadowed by everything else😂 thanks for watching!
The algorithm has blessed you this day 40k Hiccup
Indeed! I’m happy about it, thanks for watching!
"OH. NO TEARS, PLEASE. IT'S A WASTE OF GOOD SUFFERING!"
AAAAAAA
@@unclesamlore In all seriousness, I always through Slaanesh was better represented in the first 2 Hellraiser movies, Event Horizon, and Videodrome than anything we see in most 40k fiction or fan fiction. They always seem to get hung up on the "sex, drugs, & rock and roll" aspects and never consider the deeper meaning and while that is nice, that's entry level stuff.
Oh sure, the "sex, drugs, & rock and roll" is why most Slaaneshy cultists join, but it's not why they stay. Just look at his/hers/its champions. Fabulous Bill want's to create the "perfect" Space Marine, but actually creates abominations both in lore and on the tabletop. Lucius wants to become the ultimate duelist and whenever someone beats and kills them, they transform into him. He becomes better. And last but not least (Slaanesh has no "least") there's Fulgrim, who was so obsessed with the of war he sold his soul to the chaos powers for ultimate perfection.
If James Workshop focused more on aspects of Slaanesh, on the hubris and arrogance and pursuit of perfection above all else and the kinds of horrible monsters it creates, then they would do gangbusters. But no, James has The Big Horny and so do most players, so Slaanesh is forever fetish fuel.
Slaanesh has always been my favorite.
A MAN OF CULTURE
Personally I would never understand the appeal of dedicating yourself to khorne, nurgle, or tzeetch. However you can easily see how those who fall for slaanesh are represented in every day life. We are constantly surrounded by people who are well on their way already and all it would take is just a nudge.
Honestly I think that the majority of our leaders whether cultural, political, corporate, or religious are there already.
It’s definitely something scary to think about, thank you for watching!
OMFG! Imagine an Alien Isolation type game set in 40k where you try to escape as a normal human from one of the many horrors of 40k. My mind instantly goes to gene-stealers, but a wandering demon of Slaanesh would be pretty horrifying.
Oh god that would be amazing, I would love that! Thanks for watching!
Maybe a game in a kind of village where everyone slowly get insane and corrupted by slaanesh until real slaanesh demons walk around!
Glad I am not the only one with such an idea ! XD
Great Video! Congratulations on finding so many images of the Prince of Pleasure that do not breach TOS.
Thanks man! Oh dude it was, really freaking hard 😭
I consider myself pretty emotional, so I'd most likely fall to slanesh. Which is horrifying, because it's the last chaos being (MAYBE besides Nurgle) I'd ever want to fall to.
I would probably choice nurgle if I had the choice, since at least then I would be relaxed the rest of my life😂 thanks for watching!
I overthink and plan things ahead way too much to be corrupted by Slaanesh. Now, Tzeentch on the other hand...
Gotta be honest, Slaanesh gives me nightmares at times.
Oh same, I’ve had dreams about it. Those were not pleasant 😂 thank you for watching!
I rather rot away without feeling any pain then living each day for the ultimate rush from gettin tortured by blades and other crap.
Yeah same tbh
Pinhead is a demon of slaneesh soooo…
It would make sense honestly, thanks for watching!
I could see that been the case 😆
For real you are so right hahah
I agree, Slaanesh is the most terrifying of the Chaos Gods, at least for humans and certainly Eldar. I think folks don't understand that the Goddess of Pleasure is also the Goddess of Pain. It's ripped right from Hellraiser and the Cenobites. Excess truly means excess in every way imaginable. Sensation is key, and what brings some of the most intense sensations is pain and suffering.
Yup, it’s freaky. Very freaky. Thanks for watching!
*Smiles in slaanesh player despite the system*
LOLLL😂
It’s safe to say that Slaanesh doesn’t sit well with anyone. Khorne is where it’s at though. He’s just based in every way
Khorne is great, video coming about him next week actually so stay tuned for that!
amazing vid. slaanesh is truly disturbing and amazing to read about at the same time
Always has been! Thanks for watching!
For me, Pinhead and his Cenobites represent the average Slaanesh follower. It gets even creepier from that point.
Exactly, that’s why slaanesh scares me so much. Thanks for watching!
Time is a foreign concept to the Chaos Gods, the birth of Slaanesh in 40k is the same as the Old World. Slaanesh has always existed, it is always dying. Gods transcend time.
Oh true yeah, i forget chaos doesn’t have time rules and such. Thanks for watching!
Great video. I’m fairly new to Warhammer so love the breakdown on this type of video👍
Thanks dude I’m happy you enjoyed it!
40K Chaos is not chaotic enough.
Maybe? Idk. I do think that fantasy chaos is a bit cooler. Thanks for watching!
I don't believe it's quite as simple as this. After all, the other three chaos gods aren't about to just sit back and let Slaanesh gain power from a multitude of beings just because those beings are passionate about something. It would still take more than just a driving passion or interest for someone to get entangled with Slaanesh.
That is true, but the passion is what puts them onto the path. ITs the stepping stone that leads to the eventual, weird stuff, at least to me anyone based on the characterization of slaanesh's greatest champions (sigvald fits into this best imo). Thank you for watching!
Slaanesh is the slipperiest of slopes. The Ultra Marine who feels proud of slaying that big Waaaaghboss, just fed Slaanesh. The Ecclesiarch who pats himself on the back for delivering a rousing sermon, just fed Slaanesh. The Rogue Trader who scored a great deal on vintage Amasec, just fed Slaanesh. The Eldar Ranger perfecting his marksmanship, just fed Slaanesh. The Boy relishing the feeling of being da Biggest, just fed Slaanesh. Lucius the Eternal was slain a thousand times but always reborn because even the most pious or savage of his killers felt a mere glimpse of pride at their deed.
slaanesh was specifically born from the drukhari, since they're the ones who stayed for the fall. the modern day craftworld eldar are the ones who saw the writing on the wall and got the fuck out. the drukhari are muuch closer to what the pre-fall eldar were like.
Oh yeah I know, I just said what I said as a quick summary that got the major beats there for those who didn’t understand as long as setdressing. Thanks for watching!
I really like Slaanesh lore, as it is also based on the circles of hell from the Divine Comedy, GW focused on the lust part, but the other sins are scarier, Age of Sigmar is doing nice work with this on the mortals that were launched since 2021
I’ve seen that, I really like that AOS and fantasy have slaanesh being more prevalent. Thanks for watching!
Ayo uncle sam, as an uncle, and a sam, I can say wow dude what a great video.
Thank you for watching! I appreciate your kind words!
To be fair, knowing how horrible an average life in the 40K universe is Slanesh kinda sounds like a good alternative. At least you get to have some fun
Yeah that sounds about right, gotta enjoy yourself somehow 😂 thanks for watching!
And that's terrible.
Some, and then a little more, and then a little more and after enough iterations, you're getting the "dirty sanchez" from a amputee Tyranid
It’s not fun it’s self destruction in agonizing pain forever. The fun is the cheese on the mouse trap. You’re not supposed to get it
Slaneesh feeds on excess and passionate, overzealous dedication to becoming the pinnacle of whatever one wishes, and any lesser emotions that lead to those things. So it stands to reason that since the Chaos Gods are themselves pinnacles of their given concepts then, like how Malal feeds upon their self-destruction and personal conflicts between each other, Slaneesh herself may feed upon the other Gods dedication to their concepts. Which basically means you could potentially purge the galaxy of all Slaneeshi followers and yet even still the existence of the other Chaos Gods may keep her sustained
And given how insidious and all-encompassing she is, the time it'll take to deal with the other Gods would be ample time for her to reseed corruption and amass her power once more, meaning she'll always inevitably return unless all others have been stopped
It is possible. That is something that hasnt been explored, but would be very cool if it was! Thank you for watching!
On the other hand, s/he does have an odd tendancy to make her troops less reliable in combat. Just look what a mercurial joke fulgrim is during the late heresy
That’s true, but when they are in combat and focused they are a nightmare to deal with. Thank you for watching!
You make a really good point about the marketability of Slaaaaaaaanesh models, especially with GW trying to make the franchise more mainstream. I guess we'll get our answer with the upcoming Emperor's Children range refresh. Looking forward to the new Fulgrim model myself.
As am I! I really want new noise marine models, they have always seemed super cool. Thanks for watching!
Nice video. I am a big fan of Slaanesh due to how depraved and twisted that god is.
Nurgle and Tzeentch are terrifying and Khorne is straight up death but Slaanesh.... there is very twisted things going on. I feel like Slaanesh gets sort of put in the corner because of how extreme it all is. If they brought it up to the light in full it would make for some disturbing reading and models which would be risky for the franchise
Thank you for watching! Oh yeah, but I feel like it would be worth exploring. Plus those two new EC books have me excited!
When it comes to violence then body count is khorne. Skill or pride in killing is Slannesh. But its blurred lines everywhere with she who thirsts
Yeah slaanesh kinda inserts themselves whenever and where they wanna be, they just like being the center of attention 😂 thanks for watching!
I find Nurgle the most potent cause he offers something that most doesn't, care. He genuinely cares about his folk's well being and in a galaxy of never ending apathy having that and control over diseases makes him the most far spread to me. Tzeentch is by far the most powerful but Nurgle is the most constant by far. To be blunt, i could get past most of the Slanesh rings bar maybe the last one, seeing Slanesh. Well, if it isn't a woman i don't care, if Slanesh doesn't even know what it wants to be why would if follow it? Nurgle on the other hand, the God is grounded, powerful, consistent and therefore ever present. Pleasure comes and goes, want decays at a point. And that decay, that inevitability is the most potent. Speaks volumes as to why Mortarion gets the most done by far. Fulgrim doesn't even do anything.
That is fair, I really need to read more nurgle stuff since that all seems really cool. Thanks for watching!
Inquisitor..this one right here
NO IM FINE THANK YOU
Fantastic video, found your channel in my reccomended and subbed after the furst minute alone
Thanks man! More lore videos to come!
Love your take on this. The descriptions of people trying to make their way through their realm are horrific. Oh? Brushed against a statue? Sorry your soul is now trapped for eternity in silent anguish unable to die. The other gods have goals and some reasoning but Slanesh just does it for kicks.
Yep that’s what makes it scary for me. Thanks for watching!
Don’t fear Slaanesh. Embrace them!
MMMM YES YES INDEED😂 thanks for watching!
There is one entity from another fictional medium to check out who would be a interesting comparison and parallel to make to the Chaos gods when it comes to certain characteristics yet seeing how massively different they are.
One could impose a perspective of having a few similar traits and attributes as Slaanesh as in his personality's cruelty. But he would however be completely antithetically opposed to Slaanesh in everyway of his methodology and true long term goal and his free will.
He is known as the Scarlet King who's name is Khahrahk from the SCP Mythos.
He is a being who's works are more similar to Malice's agenda instead. Especially since he abhores all of creation as a intended marred existence of cosmic hypocrisy and he detest it with personal spitefulness. A painful agony which is his real motivation to see it be annihilated down to it's very foundation. And he hates his own existence as well.
If Slaanesh encountered him and ever tried to even think about attempting to influence and tempt him to her will Khahrahk would kill her immediately and declare her a pathetic disgusting parasitic existence which doesn't have the right to exist and it would be better if she and the rest of her disgusting kind were erased. And the agonies he can inflict would be worse then anything Slaanesh was ever capable of doing.
Oh man I really need to read more SCP then holy cow
@@unclesamlore
If you do I recommend checking out the Tale Dust and Blood. It is what sets the foundation and characterization Khahrahk the Scarlet King the most. What he does and the Empire he creates in the Darkness Below and his sons and lineage that does his will. Very few entities within the Tree of Knowledge can rival the Scarlet King. A fewer can make him relent. Beings like the Brothers Death and Adam El Asem the first Human of the SCP Mythos are capable of stopping the Scarlet King.
There is also some people like me who consider Khahrahk a child of He Who Made Dark. A creator entity who created the Darkness Below and the Darkness Above and the low elder gods who dwell within them and is the father of the Three Brothers Death.
Firstly, I appreciate the silent hill ost. It surprisingly fits the topic of this video (which deserves way more attention!)
Secondly, your voice is adorable and idk why I find it adorable. But it's comforting to listen to... So yeah. Hope you had a good day or night lol.
That is what I was going for! I really love the silent hill franchise and will talk about in on the channel at some point! Thank you! Maybe I can start the uncle sam video sleep club XD, thanks for watching!
I think to make Slaanesh marketable, they need to mask a hard left turn into making her more about excess in a less visceral sense. Focus more on the noise marine aspect, on the superhuman rockstars, on being obsessed with perfection. Even things like say Emperors Children who use drugs to weaken foes, noise marines who deafen and disorient enemies, psykers who specialize in overstimulating your senses to a paralyzing degree. Everything becomes too bright, too loud, to hot too cold just *too much*. Just take any concept, overdo it, and bam you have a viable Slaanesh unit.
I really believe it would be easier to go that route and leave the more gross stuff to fall into more obscure lore. Sure some people will complain but really? You’re gonna complain about less r-word?
That’s the exact way I would do it!
Want some good nightmares when it comes to Chaos? Read novels and short stories of Peter Fehervari. All of them are part of series "Dark Coil" and one of it's biggest aspects is corruption. They are amazing at how eerie and quite terrifying Chaos can be and Chaos in this series is by far the most insidious and twisted. First go for Fire Caste and leave Requiem Infernal for last and maybe after Fire Caste read Vanguard. That's the only things to keep in mind. Rest you can read at any point.
I’ve wanted to for some time! I have had my eye on the reverie for a while. Thank you for watching!
@@unclesamlore No problem. As I said. It's good to start anywhere, but Fire Caste seems like a best bet overall. Also there is another short story you MAY want to read after that called "Crown of Thorns". If you read Fire Caste and then that you will see something... interesting. Entire Dark Coil is like this. It's all connected in it's own weird ways. That's why I say leave Requiem Infernal for last. It's very close to the center of the coil.
Great video. Thanks
Thank you for watching! Happy you enjoyed it!
Ey yo wtf why are you so good at talking about shit and yet I've never heard of you?
Subbed.
Thank you! I plan on talking about more stuff like this soon (HALO COUGH COUGH), thank you for watching!
Tzeentch and Slanesh almost dont see the storys writen becouse it start to suttle. And end up to dark.
One you just want change, you just want power to change things. And end up a tentacle crow monster.
The oter its i just want to escape reality with this party, drugs, drink, or i just want to be the best at paints. And it evolves to mania, to obsession.
That is true, idk I just wish there was more explored than just the excess and weird parts versus what goes on inside the mind of those who fall. Thank you for watching!
Slaanesh = perfectionist gooners
Yeah. Yeah.
I’m pretty sure Event Horizon was a documentary of mankind’s first encounter with the Warp.
😬
Event horizon is an amazing film. One of my favorites easily, thanks for watching!
Actually if I had to choose a chaos god to serve Slaanesh would be my first choice. I think mosta the imperium would be sucked in because who doesnt wanna have fun?
Yeah I could see that😂 thanks for watching!
