[@Gyrannon]

If not yet covered them, HIGHLY suggest covering The Enslavers. They are among the most terrifying Warp Entities that everyone is terrified of, even The Imperium. Enslavers are the very reason that most societies before & after the Great Crusade feared Psykers, cause if just one psyker loses it, they will call forth the Enslavers, making them into a walking gateway for these things. And the more people these things Enslave, the more of them come out of the warp. Even Daemons of Khorne, Slaanesh, Tzeentch, and Nurgle are preferable to the Imperium & Eldar over these monsters. All it takes is just one Enslaver, and an entire planet could be doomed.

[@pamew]

The fact that putting daemons in weapons makes them powerful largely because of how angry the daemon is at its situation is hilarious to me.

[@feifeili1658]

Taking the Destiny style of shoving people into weapons

[@abdullahansari437]

Fr like all they would have to do is have a meeting with all their demon bros and be like “so if we all get anger classes they will stop trapping us” and boom, problem solved

[@camelthegamer7165]

"You have trapped me, have a buff to your attack!"

[@Yostuba]

t'yah now piss the daemon off or deny it a kill or etc, see how fast it turns on you itself or causes someone to take it away from you. As someone gets jacked with power and the daemonic weapon is now riping your body&soul to shreds so it can feed on your mind&soul. As the new owner is hooked on the weapon like a crackhead, till he also fucks up and repeat till someone manages to destroys the weapon or frees the daemon or worse figures out its true name and does X or is somehow able to bind the weapon into a bigger weapon to power it and turn said larger weapon daemonic earning the daemons thanks for empowering it further to cause even more damage and pain Daemonic weapons not even once

[@Rickybobby427xyz]

@@feifeili1658so uhm warhammer came out before destiny. Also it has been well established is ceremonial magic that when summoning a demon you need to offer it an object. Because they are materialistic. This is were this idea comes from. Fun fact

Me too and got into the novels from these lore videos. I never realised how in depth it was, just thought it was painting minis and then fighting them and then I saw weshammer and majorkill and thought this is interesting and not as nerdy as I thought lol

[@killeanmcchesney5138]

Tell me the things your most interested in and I’ll direct you on the lore type things you’d like and find the most relevant to you. I don’t care how weird or how stupid it is I can tell you what it is you need to type in specifically lol that’s how I got hooked on 40k was because me and someone else pretty much had a conversation that went like that.

" Daemons that exist to enforce contracts. " Let's also talk about the massive daemon lord on his way to becoming a god because of all the contracts with various daemons he has and his metal daemons.

[@loganb7059]

I hope that it becomes established that they are associated with Vashtorr, if not directly, but are parallel to him and his contracts.

[@gavinziozios1431]

Still don't get the Majorkill hate. Dude's blunt, but in a funny and offensive way. Not everyone's humor, but enough that it appeals to enough people. Also, I've heard the excuse it's because he's a bad lore person and the info he gives you, you can pull off the wiki. Like, maybe so. Not all lore channels have to be deep dives like Wes though, it's okay to go over basics. He also presents it in a format that is easy to get hooked on to

[@1701Emperor]

The Eye of the Abyss doesn't spontaneously manifest itself. It follows its target out of the Warp, which is why it can circumvent the otherwise needed rituals. It is kind of the same concept as how Daemons can manifest as a result of a Warp Tear.

[@JackPhoenixCz]

It's also possessing a host, the ship, so it can exist in the materium. It's basically big, 'naturally' occuring daemon engine.

[@CatherinePuce]

To be honest, the eye of the abyss powers sound like the ones a standard Deamonship. The main difference is how it was created.

[@SaraSara-oe6il]

Nobody asked

[@Cordovan]

my headcanon was that since it's still an Imperial vessel, regardless how twisted, it might use some sort of "reverse Geller field" or even just an actual Geller field, that instead of keeping the warp out, keeps it in while the ship is in the Emperium, but since the ship is chaotic and bizarre, it would not be able to maintain this state longer than a few hours

[@abdullahirfan9991]

THIS, this is why I love this guy. Your explanation of more obscure pieces of lore make your content unique and fun. Keep it up wes

[@Kankan_Mahadi]

Hail Nurgle~ The Glitchlings are my friends - they make it so much easier to melee my enemies with my plague axe after their tech & machinery got taken out.

[@akumaking1]

Can Wes talk about the Emperor’s lost relatives like Erda, Primarch Zero and the Sensei/Star Children?

[@beepboop9712]

I don't know, can he?

[@licensed_beheader]

Erda was a whiny biitch, there saved you time wasted on her lore. Screaming about the primarchs being used as weapons, didn't she get the memo or did she honestly think the emperor went through all the effort to create them just so he could get kids to cuddle . Not to mention throwing them into the warp to "protect" them like what? Who throws their kids into literal hell to protect them?

[@matthewprichard1248]

One of my favourite weird daemons is Oliensis, a daemon world that’s actually a giant person, who ate a chapter of space marines and they re-emerged as a chaos warband

[@jaakkotoivola4619]

Once again you surprise me, digging up not just one, but three primarily Calixis-associated entities. Though it will likely remain untouched by GW due to being written by another company, seeing content related to my favorite setting is always a delight. Still, it might be for the best it remains nothing but a source of obscure lore: Some secrets are better left buried, some places undisturbed, and some heresies... Unpunished. Lest the truth devour all.

[@mprojekt72]

I have soft spot for glitchlings. On my skull, above my left ear, even (sort of kidding, I really do have a hole due to surgery - just not due to Nurgle). They are gleeful, grubby, gurgling gremlins who just want to play with their new and often-temporary friends.

[@AnimeShinigami13]

@WesHammer How about a video of the top 10 most badass marines from chaos legions who stayed loyal? Or a video on the dreadnaughts with the best personalities of all time? It seems to me like every dreadnaught I hear about gets more and more larger than life with each new one. For example the word bearer contemptor who stayed loyal and guarded a cardinal world and decided that his younger chaos bretheren needed to be taught a lesson? Or the son of mortarion who stayed loyal and who blew himself and his battle brother up rather than be killed by the life eater virus. Or the tragic but sometimes jolly dementia of Cassor, confusing the hell out of the tyranids he's fighting by calling them "traitors". Craziness, senses of humor, heroic down with the ship moments, best ever badassery.

[@Spacelover222]

the abyss story makes me think of yssarile could this be the return of the demon king

[@Irobert1115HD]

actually the eye of the abyss being ably to leave the warp at will makes sense: the demon has a ship as a body and therefore likely still has the engine components ready and running.

There are, as we see in recent novels, even psykers weak enough to be born with the ability to just read ONE person's thoughts and emotions. As in, they are telepaths but they just latch on to some random person and then they are stuck reading his thoughts and nobody else's until he dies or they do.

[@borttorbbq2556]

Eye of the abyss is one of my favorite beings as it's a self-contained explanation. Technology, computers, spirits, and flesh are corruptable. So, as it gets older, it will further integrate the ship. Horrific to think about corruption of geller feld generator may instead project a feld of chaos itself or make a field that allows itself and others with it to stay in real space for extended periods and warp engines alowing free movment between realms. I dont know if it's just another demon ship or if it's a unique version. But i do think it's one of my favorite chaos beings
