Well, there is Vashtorr the Arkifane, so I'm not sure he'd appreciate some upstart usurping him...
Thank you, corrected.
I don't know what that word is supposed to be.
No, that's correct as it is.
I'm not sure they were in 2nd Edition.
Thank you, corrected.
Depending on how The Faultless One develops, them becoming an "Aengel" of The Greater Good, helping the philosophy to grow into a metaphysical force of Order/Faith in the Immaterium to counter the Ruinous Powers would certainly be welcome!
Yes, I rather imagine you do. This is far from a typical
...That is a very complex question. And I'm not sure P'Aul can answer it with any accuracy, metaknowledge or not.
...Holy shit, that's going right to the top.
...Kind of?
Furies are still beasts of Chaotic energies. Faultless here... Is decidedly anything but Chaotic.
Yeah, trying to 'civilise' Orks is a useless endeavour. Their own nature and reinforcing parapsychic field self-corrects 'abnormal' behaviour. It's also why they never seem to fall to Chaos, or suffer from Genestealer cults.
...Was he doing the Tau equivalent of hyperventilating? This has him so worried that he's having panic attacks? Shiiiit.
Probably not as reassuring given P'Aul's smooth forehead, but whatever works.
When the buck stops with you, expect a rough ride...
Oh, Tau do have souls. In the Chaos God's eyes, they're small, thin things with no real taste to them. But they do have them.
Like filling up a bucket of water with other fluids until all the water is gone...
...Please, don't try that.
I rather suspect it would earn the eternal enmity of whatever Craftworld that Avatar belongs to.Accurate, but really understating the sheer enormity of the concept...
And why would Khorne give up his Gym Buddy?
(That's a TTS side-gag reference, folks.)Heck, there's even precedent for Humans becoming something... More. The Legionnaires as mentioned there, Living Saints, entities like the Sanguinor... Strange things can happen.
There's old fan theories of daemons of Order. Though they all vary in how and why and even what... Perhaps this guy could be one such possibility.
Perhaps that very mechanisation, that reduction of emotion and self, is what allowed Faultless to survive the birthing process without being eaten by another Warp entity. Such a place, a collection of feelings, would be like a dull, dark spot in the Immaterium.
To be fair, Big E does have... Opinions... About all manner of Warp entities. Not just daemons. Enslavers, Vampires, Astral Hounds and so many more... And most of them hostile to mortal beings.
In other words, play nice with Faultless, and they'll have no reason to be hostile.
The joy of apparently being the first of your kind.
...Yeah, that isn't going to be a fun road-trip.
That... Okay. It's not even going to be an easy discussion, simply because of all the unknowns involved. Still, at least the Faultless One is making themselves useful to the Greater Good, if only by encouraging better working conditions for their Human worlds....emergency field medicine is carried out on the scalded work force.
There is literally nothing accurate in here...
Thank you, corrected.
Chaos Orks were a Rogue Trader thing, but orks have been genestealer-compatible for the whole run.
Here's a thought: could the ring translation system serve to allow communication with a C'tan?
They may not exist. 2nd Edition Necrons were rather different to both 3rd and... When was the next Necron retcon? The poc'tan one.
Cue a number of Tau scientists and recruited psykers being tasked with the help of The Faultless One to create an enclosed environment safe from warp predators and the more vicious currents, so as to grow warp entities that aren't Chaos aligned, help them become strong enough to handle what lies beyond and guard the souls of the Tau Empire.
I like to think creating Tulpas is MUCH easier in places where the Warp is calm.... or at least calmer than in most areas, hence my idea of creating a specially prepared area for the purpose of the creation of such entities.
Wouldn't work, for a number of reasons. Most obvious of which being they would have to transport the thing through a warp rift. Which would fuck things up even worse.
I doubt it. They know that tau have much less of a warp presence than humans, and as such make terrible building materials for gods. If they don't believe the SI, they can check with warp-capable allies.
It's not so much "gods" but rather stable Psykers that I was thinking of, creating gestalt souls who besides being naturally spiritually resistant to the daemonic thanks to the strength of their souls, can pass on their psychic traits to their descendants when they grow up, with said descendants being designated to receive gestalt souls as well, thus starting the cycle anew, which will continue for hundreds if not thousands of years until they eventually start producing "Anathema/Emperor" grade Psykers.
The problem is that's not a thing that can be done anymore.
He looks like the Silver Surfer, but just a little off, the machine parts concealed but not gone.
I can't find it on the internet, and I haven't really read the tabletop editions, I'm mostly into the books, fanfics, and I once read the Rogue Trader and Dark Heresy rulebooks.
That wasn't humans, it was the remains of the Tau's fourth sphere expansion fleet.
Hence my earlier mention of the possibility of an enclosed space fashioned for the purpose of creating beneficial warp entities.
It's straight up not possible for anyone outside of the Eldar because doing such a thing requires Spirit Stones, Wraithbone, and billions of souls that are at least at the level of a moderate psyker.
