Gripweed posted:Some Raven Guard absolutely do have paranormal powers of not being seen, echoes of Corvus’s power where he could literally just not be noticed when he didn’t want to be. Yeah the novel about the Lion’s return has a Fallen as a viewpoint character and he notes he usually passes himself off as a gene modded labourer or similar outside of his armour.

Also a fun mental picture of Space Marines picking at dinner politely and bailing on dessert, and the explanation makes sense, as well as that they probably haven't developed much of a preferred palate for regular human food either. Even the Space Wolves do their feasting with mead that's made from rocket fuel and entire roast animals and all.

I'm pretty sure the Custodes are not made from normal humans like Space Marines are. They are more like the Primarchs where they are test tube babies that had their DNA hand crafted to make a very specific kind of humanoid being that has abilities that normal humans cannot possess or be made to possess. They are more like a manufactured weapon or tool that has sentience and is built for a specific purpose. Of course in the WH40k universe an actual hammer can have sentience if it is advanced enough or Chaos decides to corrupt the hammer to do it's bidding. Edit: Also if a hammer is sentient you need to regularly massage it with oil, pray to it, and constantly tell it how awesome it is. It also won't hammer a nail if it isn't in the mood. limp_cheese fucked around with this message at 18:14 on May 14, 2024 |

Hihohe posted:Corpse grinders are mean in game, almost oppressively. Melees really powerful and they are good at it One of my favorite little lore bits from the corpse grinder book is that the scrawnier-looking gangers have to wear those metal muzzles to prevent them from chowing down on fallen combatants (including their own) while they're still in the middle of a skirmish. The same book also had rules for a chaos-uprising-themed campaign, where it was possible for the hive you're in to get so hosed-up that starvation mechanics would kick in and your less-fed gangers (regardless of faction) would have to make "cool" rolls to stop them from eating downed opponents, in a mirror to that bit of corpse grinder fluff.

IIRC custodes are made from Terran noble babies, but the process is similar to what you're describing - their DNA and whatnot are hand crafted into a very specific kind of human, also IIRC but I wanna say that they're hand-crafted into the person they're specifically replacing in the 10,000, i.e. the process and DNA is slightly different if they're replacing an Adornitus vs a Trajaan or w hatever

CapnAndy posted:Bold of you to assume there's public schools From what I remember of Catachan lore kids on the deathworld are raised in a big ol' village nursery, where they're taught basic skills like "how to decapitate flying snakes" and "when to snap your friend's neck when they're too infested with brain parasites." The field trips out into the jungle have sizable casualty rates.

Catachans and Cadians are just built different but equally hardcore in my mind. One can kill and gut a creature before they can walk while the other can dig a trench and field strip every known armament before they can talk

Smugworth posted:Cadia was full of wusses that's why the planet blows up I think that’s one bit of that lore people often get wrong, mainly because Cadians are sort of the template for ‘basic guardsman’ across the imperium (and more importantly, model range) and guardsman are generally depicted as mooks or fodder in 40k stories. But Cadians are supposed to be ridiculously hardcore, like just insanely good soldiers and the peak of what a baseline human soldier can be, they just live in the 40k universe so being the best human soldier only counts for so much. There’s a reason Cadian doctrine and gear is the template for a vast amount of the imperial army.
