To those curious:
I couldn't find the link to the creature seen in the thumbnail to this video in the description.
The artist is "Mike Franchina" and the creature is called "The Mother of Beasts"
He makes cool shit
Hell yeah dude, MF is next level.
Jokaero sound like they should be prime targets for Tau Water Caste.
monke not care. monke make boat. boat go space. life good.
Has monke ever wondered about their part in the Greater Good? We have some pamphlets we'd like to show you.@@karsonball2619
@@karsonball2619 For the Greater Good Monke get lots of material to make boats. Some of Boats go space with water caste. Life better for both!
@@olenickel6013 monkey break causality to make boat from compressed reality. monke happy.
Monke not dumb enough to believe Tau.

25:14 Bonedrinker - moopsy mushroom
29:12 Vespids - most original wasp aliens award
"moopsy"?
@@SpydrXIII Star Trek Lower Decks
Moopsy is a creature from the episode “I have no bones and I must flee”
It’s the cutest little bone drinker ever
I love how Tau feature so much --plagiarism-- inspiration from Marathon and Halo
@@NieroshaiTheSableHey, it's not like the rest of the setting has not plagiarized just about everything shamelessly
Smellrats= Space Skaven finally confirmed
" Retinue. Unleash... the trunk Jokaero. "
23:36 skaven returns
I was actually about to say that
Is a Jokero really creepy? I feel like they shouldn't be on the list
A giant orangutan is creepy. Big Foot, the Yeti!
YES
@@eliasravanetti9931To them we are apes.😂
They are creepy in a planet of the apes kind of way. The similarities to apes on earth can't be an accident either, this kind of implies that all apes are created by the old ones. Perhaps a common ancestor for all humanoid apes isn't that far fetched.
Beyond scary.
*MONKE!*
It would be so nice if GW paid more attention to these minor races, especially since some of them are said to have their own empires of unknown size and power. It's a bit sad when the whole galaxy seems to be populated by 5-6 major races, as if it is very small and non-misteriois.
This was my biggest disappoint when they made the Battlesuits the main focus of the Tau and not the 'Confedracy of Aliens' aspect with lots of weird minor races, sort of like the Covenant from Halo or Advent from Xcom 2.
agreed.
KREMLO CAME FROM SPAAACE...!!!
@@luketfer So many missed opportunities, indeed. At least with them missing the mark that hard I don't have to worry about being tempted into playing Tau.
I imagine half of what's stopping it from being a truly cosmopolitan empire is what a nightmare it would be to balance all of that at this point.
At the current rate GW is going I'm hopeful but not exactly optimistic. Especially with Tau battle suits or Age of Sigmar it seems their content to ignore anything that doesnt wear big (preferably blue) power armor.
sadly, the purpose of the lore is to bait people into buying their overpriced stuff. They have no reason to expand on the lore of things that arent for sale.
Part 2 has to have the Yu'vath, Rak'Gol, Slaught, and especially the Q'orl, my pick for the most horrifying race in 40k
The Q'orl in my opinion are not that different from the Megarachnids. The Rak'gol on the other hand, are Hell raiser/xenomorph/lizard/insect hybrids with an attitude and intelligent to boot . I don't know about you, but they seem rather more interesting to me.
Tarellians too
Probably my favorite video on the channel. I love the minor xenos and the narrative depth they bring when not having to make a playable army out of something.
Especially the creepy ones from the RPGs.
The idea that Horus would have used xenos as minions and lackeys is a very interesting idea for the chaos-obsessed lore of 40k. It perfectly fits the paranoia and inform the origins of the rampant xenophobia within the Imperium of Man.
However, it's not like they weren't already xenophobic before the heresy...
But why though. I mean, metanarratively it's because that's the spirit of 40k: "There is no peace amongst the stars" and all that. Within the fiction there's plenty of dangerous races and from what I googled there's a bunch of stories that vaguely adress the subject.
Narratively however I feel some more substantial event would give some more emotional grounding to that aspect of the lore.
It would be interesting for example if during the Age of Technology, a more enlighted time, humans could have had some possitive relationships with xenos. I imagine a sort of "Star Trek in Warhammer" period where humans and maybe the eldar worked together and had some sort of "Federation" thing going and fought off the Cybernetic Revolt or whathaveyou, only to be _betrayed_ by them at some point. This would set a record that "even the good ones are bad" or something like that...
@@Rodrigo_Vega "But why though"
It's been stated that all of Humanity's alien allies betrayed them when the Age of Strife began, and that betrayal is a big reason Humanity was fragmented even more and nearly pushed to extinction.
So yeah, your imagining is essentially what it was. Though humanity at the time was far beyond Star Trek or even anything from 30k/40k in terms of technology. And while the Eldar did also attack Humanity, it was their inadvertent creation of Slaanesh that REALLY screwed Humanity over rather than a direct betrayal.
Almost every element of the Imperium's fears relates to the Age of Strife and what caused it, from anyone who accepted psykers resulting in daemon invasions to xenos betrayal to even the prior AI betrayal.
@@LordVader1094 Then I would like that betrayal being fleshed out a bit more. More than "Yea, everyone started sort of screwing over us around this period".
Compared to the betrayal of Horus it still feels kind of vague. Give us some personal names, locations, battles and motives, you know? Small chapters in the Imperium vs. Chaos bit seems to get more attention and detail than their conflict with literally _every other race_
sure, the 'rampant xenophobia' doesn't have anything to do with the overt reality that all non-Humans want to kill humans. Derp
People like you make me worry about Humanity's future in reality. Imagine, aliens show up and you'll want to treat them like "other people" as opposed to what they will always be; Humanity's enemies. At best, they're in our region of space, so they're attempting to exploit the same resources. Chances are, they'll see us a resource. I imagine there are billions like you, who will likely prefer to worship the aliens vs. kill them to maintain human supremacy.
the greatest modern sin is tolerance.
I think a deep dive is needed for the Zoats, the Enslavers, and the Cythor Fiends as minor races of significance.
Using a picture of the Librarian for the Jokaero section is not really appropriate. He can be PLENTY aggressive if you accidentally refer to him as a monkey.
Ooook!
Top Ten Warhammer 40k Cr@ckPot Lore Theories - Jakkero Monkies are actually ancient ancesotrs of humanity hence why Humanity has such crazy almost all-powerful tech during the Golden Age of Technology and that is why Big E does not want to know the origin of Mankind cause people would explode knowing that Space Racist Elves where not being mean saying mon-keigh but actually genetically they were true all along.
Except we already know we came from apelike ancestors
@@tamlandipper29 Yes, but that means than Humanity has legit rights to rule the galaxy and sh@t being indirectly created by the Old Ones, mate.
would love to see more of the Tau auxiliaries :)
Wow man what a great video. I thought I knew all the weird stuff but man the Jokero and the shapeshifters are so cool
I love Minor Xenos races and they are by far my favorite part of the setting. They're also why I prefer AoS and Fantasy, because GW will never do anything with these interesting and creative alien races, and most of their lore is a couple sentences long that typically ends with "Space Marines killed them all".
What I would give for the Hrud, Q'orl, Rak'gol, or even Kroot to be expanded upon/given armies. Instead of the painfully overdone Human factions (mainly the Space Marines).
Really love these kind of video s about "unknown" xenos
Loving your videos about the more unusual and nische parts of 40k!
Glad you like them!
The decision for Jokaero to be orangutans makes sense when you see them using saws and driving cars irl
Loved it, part 2 plz.
I really want the Hrud to make an appearance. Space Skaven/Evil Jawa would make an awesome techno chaos swarm army
and it's just a massive universe, and so boring to only focus on 6 factions (i'm kidding. we know they only focus on one faction).
instead of remaking the same space marines over and over, we'd all appreciate more new original xenos.
@@SpydrXIII I could not agree with this more. The sole focus on a handful of factions in 40k is what makes the setting painfully boring to me, I'm sick of the same marie-sue Space Marine factions and characters, who eat Avatars of Khaine for breakfast and can beat Bloodthirsters in arm wrestling contests because of the sole fact that they have a name and are human. 40k has so much potential for creativity, arguably more than AoS and Fantasy, yet they do absolutely nothing with this potential because they stick to Space Marines and the like.
But now the Smellrats are confirmed as space skaven
The lacromol are john carpenters "the thing".
should do a bit about the rak'gol in your next video on this subject
As a short story writer, those exemples are really helpful ^^
I feel like being a shapeshifter who cant mimic voices makes it limited in the damage you could do. 🤷♂️
I disagree, in such a religion obsessed faction one can very easily claim vow of silence.
Love your videos. One suggestion: please work on balancing audio level. I listen when going to sleep or while working. Spikes or drops in volume are tough on the ears. Again, absolutely loving your content!!!!!
Noted!
Smelt rats are clearly ikit klaw first dabbling in the 50k universe
Horned rat will dominate-taint the space-cosmos, yes yes!
5:28
That art is actually from another wargame called AT-43 (sadly it's discontinued). One of the races in that game is power-armoured sentient gorillas. In space.
Glad I’m not the only person who noticed that
33:50 adding a literal giant bell ding and hip hop scratches at the end makes this difficult to sleep to :(
“Six major super powers”
Chaos: 😔
I didn’t hear it in the video but in the older lore the imperium tried to imprison some of the Jokero to use them to mass produce digi weapons but no prison the empire could build could hold them for longer than a day as any time they were given anything with the hope that they would build weapons they instantly made a device to escape from simple lock picks to short ranges teleportation devices that one worked once.
So, the skavens did make their way into 40k, after all.
Love the Stellaris portraits being used for the Bonedrinkers
This is a very interesting topic. Thank you for the good time :))
better vids like you use to do. Will start watching again fellas...
You used quite a few images from the StarCraft franchise on this, you get my watch through as I'm still interested in this one.
I never thought I would see AT43 art used as stand ins for Warhammer 40K, but it works well.
Glad I’m not the only person who spotted that
5:40 Everytime Rackham artwork is used for 40k, a kitten dies...
?
@@Kinglizard220 Only people active during the Confrontation era will get that...
@@vermilion7777 I guess so cus I have no clue what you're talking about. Twice now lol.
@@Kinglizard220 The french company Rackham was the main competitor of GW in the early 2000s. Similiar to Privateer Press today. The fantasy game "Confrontation" was their main product. Later they released a new prepainted (vomit) Sci-Fi game, called AT-43 (great name...). The white gorillas from the illustrations where one of their fractions.
Imagine today someone chosing Warjack illustrations to show a Space Marine dreadnought. Would be the same.
@@vermilion7777 oh. That makes sense, yeah I was a literal baby during the start of early 2000s lol. Cool to know the lore of gw and their competitors
1:51 “valjeanius, at last! We see each other plain! Magos technicus! You wear a different chaaaaain!”
Why do the astartes even use ceramite if everyone and their dog can punch right through it?
Cos normal humans can't, so they can put down rebellions, and kill heretics without respite.
The Megarachnids just gobble you, the Bone Drinkers drink your bones!
Moopsy!
Nice job
Wow, the vespid are cool as heck.
Vespids have thermal 😂 great video!
Could someone tell me what the name of the song at the very end of the video is called ? I couldn't find it in the description links.
Megaarachnids sound like something ro keep away from the Tiranids to absorb...
Maybe the imperium could use their DNA for some extra Space Marine organs, like super hearing, or way harder bones
Jokero's need fleshed out into an entire faction. Maybe they've had enough of being pushed around and forced to be the servants of the Imperium so have assembled a fighting force of battle suits that are more melee based as opposed to the tau's ranged battle suits. I'd spend money on that.
I really like the Smelt Rats. How they’re not human mutants and are ignored until it’s too late. Very Skaven.
Not going to lie, when I saw the thumbnail I thought it said "Oldest Minor Xeno Races"
that frau battle cruser image you showed looks like a starcraft II terran cruiser.
Missing the creepiest xeno minoris of all, the Slaugth. Also known as the Worms that Walk.
I actually have a Sarharduin figure in my 40k pirate army.Only one i've ever seen.
I would welcome a jokero on my voidship if I still played rogue trader.
And yes before anyone calls me a heretic, this is one of the few aliens the inquisition doesn't kill on sight.
@@cameronbaughman2090it's not even really an alien. I mean, its origins are alien but that's just an orangutan, a human world animal that wouldn't be xenos
I think creepiest shits of them all were Rangdan xenos, they were such a threat to humanity that it's mentioned that Emperor had to speed up development of Astartes legions because he knew sooner or later Rangdan would show at the door. Their empire was so technically advanced, war with it almost wiped out two of early legions, and they got various other xeno mercs backing them up. Sadly, info about Rangdan themselves is kinda scarce and contradictory (or maybe GW plays "unreliable narrator" and writes from POW of someone who just conflates every enemy they fought as members of one race). Apparently some of rangdans (or their mercs, it's unknown) were taller than Astartes, somewhat "vulpine" in shape (space furries?) and could stand their ground against superhumans, while others were cowardly masterminds who controlled the army of drones. Also, name of Rangdan (they were called Cerabvores) implies that they ate people's brain... Or maybe not.
I love the Lego Custodes 😤
Those gorilla screens are art from a miniature game called AT 43, if anyone is wondering.
A small point of interest: Jokaero Digital weapons aren't 'any size, even as small as a ring', they're always rings (but they can be any size of ring, be it for slender Aeldari hands or massive Ork fists, not that Orks are likely to appreciate digital weapons, due to their lack of dakka). They're called 'digital' because they're supposed to go on your digits. 'Implanted' digital weapons are a cleverly disguised reference to piercings.
Space skaven
In my head-canon the Jakaero are a orangutan species created by humans during the dark age of technology.
And now millennia later their technology has surpassed the humans.
Atleast more interesting than: another alien race created by the old ones…
Being so advanced, the Jokero race should be based on the white race.
>tau
>superpower
Pick one
Are the megaraknids not just cut off hive fleet? Using old models
Do you suppose there's a connection between the lacrimal and the polymorphine of the Callidus Assassins? It's never explicitly stated where polymorphine comes from and the Callidus don't seem to shy away from using xenos technology. Perhaps they have some lacrimal stashed away in their temple and that's part of their extreme secrecy. Just a bit of a fan theory there.
I thought space-Skaven got retconned decades ago?
An interesting topic!
Just found the video, recognized the thumbnail as Mike Franchina art
At 1:08 - isn't that the Librarian from the Unseen University in Discworld?
If it were regular, non augmented, humans who would had found the giant space spiders the official name of the species would have been "kill it, kill it right the fuck now with fire!"
5:29 I’m pretty sure the artwork is of the Karmans from the game AT-43
SmeltRats You mean 40k Skaven
Smeltrats:
Space Skaven.
That was cool
13:40 O, ya, the spider people. O, hay, I didn't know they had that many different forms, nice, I geuss. O, they fallow the bigger... ancient evil... endless numbers... cerimite breaking... wait a minute.
any of those in the rogue trader game? without spoiling.
Hey, thanks for pointing out every new army Games Workshop will eventually come out with...
Keep that money-train rollin'! o/
So the lacrymole are the thing?
the bonedrinkers = Moopcy
Sadly, it's possible, that Moopsy is a mutated bonedrinker.
14:30 yeah send the culexus and they're gone
Lol! Experiments on Luna 😏
I feel Game Works should bring back the Old Ones. Maybe by one survivor using time travel or some other means, to pull others of its kind free just before the moment they were to perish.
They might have faced the Tyrannids before and know how to defeat them. Of course, the C'tan might make a form of return as well. The Dragon of Mars might gain freedom as well as the Mephet'ran the Deceiver from his prison with Trazyn the Infinite.
There are other possiblities. Namely:
1) Knowlage extinction event: Where corner stones of technology are destroyed leaving survivors to climb the technology tree again.
2) Outer rim survivors: Due to insufficent numbers Old ones are incapable of maintaining their civilization past the space travel era.
3) Old ones are stuck in a resource straved place and have just gained materials to reenter the galaxy.
4) Soul of Old Ones possesing a race after a unknown space is explored.
I think their reentry would result in resurgence of Tyranids and Necrons, the Orks and Eldar could maybe fratucre due to their origin. While Empire of Man becomes more anxious that may result in offical seperation from Terra and join the faction of Old Ones.
This would mean that Empire of Man would be dethroned as the focal point as the emergence of this threat would signal a drastic change to the running of empire because High Lords or not is in direct danger.
The change of capital would be not improbable as long as the Old Ones make something like astronomicon from Empire Of Man.
25:25 Stellaris picture haha
Legio custodes
Lee-gee-o Cust-o-deez
Lol Stellaris mushroom species art
Where did you find the lore on the smelt rats? I can't find any information about them.
how do you spell that Frau, or Fraw or Frow
Yes
Fra'al
Space Skaven!!!
Thought you could slip in an image of a steel inquisitor unnoticed? Haha I see you 👀👀
IMPOSTER! SUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSSUSUSUSUSUSUS @10:51
Jokero is just a cyber orangutan, nothing creepy about them
GW needs to focus on xenos more the chaos
So the creature in the thumbnail is not in the video?
Is that duke nukem space travel worm hole
No space dwarves?
Theyre not xenos, but abhumans.
Dang mane what about the hrud??
love the part where fucking Lilith from evangelion was a xenos race in warhammer 40k
CUSTO-O-DEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS it is LATIN
Question: How would you put these in order?
A. Abbadon goes on another black crusade (not the BS kind but is a huge threat.)
B. Tyranids are on/very close to Terra
C. The return of another Primarch (who and why?)
D. Ghazghkull and the Orks becoming a threat
E. Buff for the Eldar (what?)
F. Vashtorr becomes a chaos god
A and D would be last, as they have been done repeatedly. These are largely just used for 40k to run a gaming campaign.
Vashtorr is too reclusive. I think the only event that might make him into a Chaos God of any significance would be the full awakening of the Necron Race (which would effectively end all life in the 40k universe).
The one buff to the Eldar of significance would be the birth of Ynnead. They would no longer be a dying race. It would be entertaining for sure but I don’t see this ever happening…
Tyranids on Earth would be interesting as a Genestealer cult storyline. Infiltrating the Astronomicon or a branch of the Inquisition.
I’m sure more Primarchs (good and bad) will awaken/return in the future, so this is the most likely scenario.
Vespids are just Buck Bumble
Rings that shoot bullets? That's dumb.
Funni monkis tehe
40k skaven plz
