Before I get too deep into the weeds, I just wanna take a minute to thank you for both your (no doubt exhaustive) dedication to researching the absolute clusterfuck that is WH40K lore surrounding various topics (in particular the Warp!) and your no-BS, straightforward, comprehensive-yet-easily-digestible way you present your work. It’s honestly very refreshing to see someone like you who has a strong love of the setting and a want to at least partially explain the more complex aspects of it. In fact, I often find myself falling back on your videos as research for the fanfic I’m currently plotting out because you just do such an amazing job of making the lore actually human readable/understandable. I swear, Games Workshop should at least have you on a (very well compensated) retainer because of the effort you put in. Now with that outta the way, I have a burning question about how emotions are reflected in the Warp. Specifically, you mentioned that particularly strong “negative” emotions (such as betrayal, despair, rage, etc) are much strongly linked to the Warp. *During your research on this topic,* have there been any instances of the Warp being influenced by more “positive” emotions (eg hope, heroism, joy, love, etc) or have such things always been attributed to things like faith/belief?
@SamraK644 ай бұрын
Luetin has actually touched a bit on that topic if you're interested One of the simpler arguments that are often mentionned is that in wh40, joy barely exists, while violence, envy etc are omnipresent, hence why there are no (noticeable) "good" entities in the warp
@Bluecho44 ай бұрын
A headcanon I have is that the Warp _used_ to be a much safer place for the "souls" of the dead, back when people believed in gods and afterlives. The pantheons protected their mortal followers, dividing large tracts of the "spiritual landscape" into fiefdoms (heavens and hells, etc). And because this was so common, the forces of Chaos were heavily suppressed. Hardly absent, but had to actually compete with the gods of mortals. In essence, the galaxy had a lot of problems during the Age of Strife, but Chaos wasn't nearly the biggest one, because of the faith of mortal cultures. Then, the Emperor swept in and eradicated faith throughout the galaxy. Either directly through outlawing religion and superstition, or because the level of carnage his inexhaustible armies created broke peoples' ability to believe in higher powers. In turn, torching that "spiritual landscape", and leaving a void in the Warp. A vacuum the forces of Chaos were all too willing to fill. And the masses of mortals, bereft of their old beliefs and given no reason to have faith in the secular system they toiled under, were all the more receptive to gods who promised blood, power, and revenge. The Emperor, thinking he knew better than everyone else, ended up creating the Chaos crisis he sought to prevent. Good job, Big-E.
@kacperdrabikowski50744 ай бұрын
As far as I know, it is canon that Warp was much more peaceful, but what wrecked it was War in Heaven, not Great Crusade. A galaxy-spanning war between two species that were close to lowercase-g gods by themselves brough about so much bloodshed, despair and deception that whatever Warp personifications those things had before got so powerful to completely dominate the Immaterium and also went nuts from feeding on so much negative emotions. As to why Chaos wasn't really active before Great Crusade, I believe the answer is that birth of Slaanesh kicked the remaining gods into high gear while also giving them a peephole into reality, a.k.a Eye of Terror. Then for a while the gods were mostly busy fighting each other, but then they noticed Emperor was doing stuff that could actually threaten them in the future, so they did their best to stop it, resulting in Horus Heresy and what came next. Not sure if it's canon or just the most popular headcanon, though.

I disagree that the warp is a deus ex machina. Very rarely does it resolve plot points and any it does resolve it usually adds layers of complication onto further. While some of it's plot additions are unexpected it's known to be an unexpected element rather than a random one that assists the protagonist. It, fittingly, brings chaos rather than resolution.

I'm getting quite the excellent view into (Aaron Dembsky Bowden's version of) the warp right now in my current readthrough of the Night Lord's trilogy. One of the POV characters is the human Navigator of a traitor Astartes vessel, struggling to control the ship as she navigates far away from the Emperor's beacon and into the roiling maelstroms where such accursed creatures seek refuge. It's a great trilogy and I highly recommend it to anyone out there.

Another excellent video, especially for stressing the real-world reasons for aspects of the lore. I'm a fan of media that takes a "quasi-parallel dimension" approach to FTL - around the same time as I got into 2nd edition 40k, Babylon 5 started airing with it's hyperspace. This is probably more of a JordanSourcery type area to investigate, but I just checked and Melissa Scott's "Five-Twelfths of Heaven", book one of the Roads of Heavan series was published in 1985, two years before Rogue Trader. In that setting, FTL is achived very similarly to the Warp, with ships singing their way up through the Heavens, and specially trained and aware navigators steer the vessels . If you've not read the series, I highly recommend it - I suspect it might be one of the lesser known influences on 40k!

Not sure if any of this still holds true today, but interesting to note that the Warhammer World was torn apart while, in roughly the same time IRL, we have been presented with the fall of Cadia and the Ruinstorm.

The sort of Jungian collective unconscious aspects are really cool too, hell as an extension of universal psychic trauma, makes me think of Max Ernst paintings

14:00 seems to be contradicted by what I read in Horus Heresy Legion. The Alpha Legion casually teleported all their non-Terminator armoured marines, all the Cabal Xenos, John Grammaticus and Peto Soneka from the place where they ambushed the Cabal to the Cabal ship. Suppose regular power armour is sufficient protection, and we hand-wave John Grammaticus cos he is a special Perpetual, it is very doubtful that all of the different Cabal species are somehow naturally safe in the Warp, plus Peto Soneka is just a regular human.

I wonder if it is ever explained if the Alpha Legion (or the Imperium in general) had different/better teleportation technology in the Heresy era.

I love the idea of the warp and how it’s just an innate part of the setting that means that Games Workshop can do literally anything g in any of their games and it all makes absolute canonical sense because “the warp is weird.” It’s how I explain using a detachment of Stormcast Eternals as proxies for Custodes in my army. A few questions I’ve always had about it, though: 1: Chaos orks? Could an ork be possessed by warp demons, and are their demons associated with Mork & Gork? 2: Why were the forces of the heretic Astartes only ever able to leave the Eye of Terror via the Cadian Gate? Why were they not able to just travel through the warp to wherever they wanted to go? Has that ever been explained? 3: What do psychic nulls like the Sisters of Silence actually experience while traveling through the Warp? Does the Warp still twist and deform their bodies even if it can’t touch their minds, say, if their Gellar Field went down?
