The issue with Slaanesh is that the Eldar were always able to be resurrected from the warp. So if an Eldar dies, he can come back. With the birth of Slaanesh, the Eldar cannot be resurrected. So before the Eldar were not afraid to die because they knew they would just come back, but now if they die they're souls will be consumed by Slaanesh.

Personal opinion, the krorks were a huge threat to the aeldari. In trazyn's collection, there is a krork foot soldier, 12 metres/39 feet tall wearing power armour said by Trazyn to be more advanced than anything the space marines currently have. Additionally they knew logic, tactics and science back then. Theory that I support is aeldari backstabbed them to become the state they are today because during the enslaver outbreak from the warp, even though the aeldari shared the same creators, they didn't bring any of the krorks into the webway with them and started culling them once they devolved.

[@colers2366]

Quite; Mon'Keigh isn't the Aeldari word for "Human", but it can be more accurately described as "race of barbarians" and has been handed down generation by generation to whichever race the eldar like least that aren't the ork. The description of the original race to be given this name is, and I quote "The term is derived from the legendary cannibalistic misshapen monstrosities that invaded and subjugated ancient Aeldari lands until they were cleansed from the galaxy by the hero Elronhir.", which sure as shit sound a lot like Krork to me; which other species could subjugate the eldar despite being cannibalistic monstrosities (implying low levels of civilization cohesion and therefor intelligence)? And Elronhir may have found a way to trigger the "killswitch" of the Krork, triggering their devolution.

Something to note here. Slaanesh doesn't kill the Eldar. Slaanesh CONSUMES them. As far as we know in 40k, they just cease to exist. In AoS they were able to be pulled out of Slaanesh's gullet, so potentially they're still alive maybe, but 40k and AoS do tend to have much different lore in regards to the chaos gods. So in 40k as far as we know, Slaanesh upon "birth" was so powerful in that moment that it was able to rip their souls from their bodies and just nom on them. Just feast. Not only did it eat the eldar, but ALSO their gods. It's unlikely being eaten by a hedonistic god is a very pleasant experience. An important note about Harlequins is, they go around to all of the eldar, Craftworlders and Deldar, and they make sure they remember whose fault it is that their species is suffering the way they are. Their whole troupe goes around and puts on a play basically criticising their species. It's great.

[@jagnestormskull3178]

The Harlequins also put on plays about ancient Eldar gods and heroes. They're not just professional shamers, they're also the keepers of the pre-Fall histories and myths.

[@jackmesrel4933]

I wouldn't say they're a "force of good" but more of a self aware parody of their own species. Each troupe of Harlequins can done 1 of three different angles: the good angle, with which yes they become a force of justice, kindness, etc, enbodying the positive traits; the evil angle, where they commit atrocities equal or worse than the Dark Eldars; and finally the balanced one, where it's more chaotic in general and might either shoot you on the face to end your misery or heal you if they found you with a life threatening wound. So yeah, not really a force of good as a whole, but they're not evil or morally grey like the other factions. They just follow their own agenda, which in theory is teabagging Slaneesh so hard it stops being a faction in Chaos, but who knows really

My thoughts on the Fall of the Eldar, perhaps not strictly canon... Trillions of Eldar Psykers were influencing the warp, every day, dedicated to nothing but excess. Nothing was enough, they would never be satisfied, there was just a never-ending thirst for MORE. The Fall itself was just the moment that the Eldar, as a civilisation and species, became so DEDICATED to this concept of "excess" that they merged with the metaphysical concept of "excess", which we call Slaanesh. She-Who-Thirsts doesn't "eat" Eldar souls. She IS the collective soul of the Eldar civilization, which exists eternally in the warp as the platonic ideal of murderfucking. (That's also why Slaanesh presents as androgynous: Eldar are sexually dimorphic and since Slaanesh is made of Eldar, they are a fusion of souls with masculine traits and souls with feminine traits. The other Chaos Gods kinda just formed 'naturally' in the warp, so they're technically genderless as well but are perceived as masculine by most followers.) Any Eldar souls that exist are basically just wayward fragments of Slaanesh that haven't been assimilated into the immortal whole yet.

As for Khaine, while he wasn't destroyed and consumed, he can be considered dead in practice. There aren't any prophecy of him returning to power, or any groups collecting Avatars of Khaine trying to glue them back together into a full god. I think he's stopped existing as a god for good.

One thing about the "Imperium could wipe out the Drukhari if they really wanted to" bit, the trouble with Commoragh is it's pretty much impossible for anyone that isn't a Dark Eldar to find, and even then it's a god damn near-infinite collection of pocket dimensions where the normal rules of the universe don't fully apply. Yeah they could level the place if they could even find it but the resources and manpower needed to do so would be so astronomical that it just wouldn't be worth it.

[@Nempo13]

You do realize a contingent of Salamanders wiped out half the nobility of the Drukhari right? It wasn't event he full amount, not even half of the Salamanders...and they wiped out half the nobility, the nobility's military strength, and wiped out huge chunks of their slavers. That is not even half of one chapter and they royally destroyed a large chunk of Commoragh. It honestly would not be hard for several chapters at full strength to wipe that city out entirely.

[@NCRForLife]

@@Nempo13 There's a problem with that. How easy would it be? And even then, what if chaos and the orks and every other faction decides to take over every other planet the imperium has?

[@NCRForLife]

If you put several chapters in Commoragh, chances are they'll be playing a guessing game trying to figure out where the hell Commoragh is for a millennia, and for the record, most if not all of the drukhari are there, so they're fighting at about 850 to one. for every space marine, there's ~800 Drukhari.

The only minor point that really stands out to me is that the Deldar aren't staving off Slaanesh by pleasing them, they are always slowly having their souls consumed piece by tiny piece and found that if you force someone else to experience extreme emotion you can consume pieces of their soul to replace what was lost. Not a real complaint, just a clarification for anyone interested.

[@Kennyselman]

I will point out, it wasn't the torture fucking, it wasn't the murder fucking, it wasn't even the body surfing cults (though that was towards the end, and pushed it right to the fall) it was the normalcy of some things. For instance, that infamous quote. "The highest form of devotion an Aeldari could do was serve themselves as a meal, ending with cracking their own skull open, and dropping their living brain into the broth as their body dissolved into it. Then the real torture would begin." The Eldar didn't fuck Slaanesh into existence, they squicked them into existence.

On the spelling of Aeldari, this is probably mostly for the sake of legally distinguishing them from Tolkien's Eldar. But also, it emulates the letter Æ, as in "Æsir," suggesting a diphthong (a "gliding vowel.") This indicates that you are supposed to pronounce it as "Ell-dari" (like the letter L) or "Al-dari" (like the name) as opposed to "Eel-dari" or "All-dari." Now, most modern English speakers would pronounce Eldar like that anyway, but it's useful in languages where A and E don't share very similar sounds. Plus it makes the word look old-timey and fancy.

The Aeldari's depravity was probably a big contributing factor in preventing a large-scale power struggle between them and Humanity during the Dark Age of Technology, keeping them occupied with internal (pun not intended) matters. Therefore, were they to have avoided that phase it is possible something could have sparked a galactic conflict between Humanity and the Aeldari, which would be M.A.D., causing an alternate Age of Strife and leaving the Galaxy with a similar lack of anything substantial to check the Orks, Tyranids and Necrons.

Slaanesh was inevitable! The Eldar were a catalyst. Khorne cast a shadow in the warp. Chaos is all things and the opposite of Khorne is one of them that could only gain power as reaction and resistance to Khorne developed. To give players agency in the game, what people do needs to matter. Living in a way, in universe, that feeds a particular chaos power better than another should correspond to a flux in the warp that swells a ruinous power, relative the others. Quantity and quality would matter to such blasphemous calculations.

[@vmaldia]

Slaanessh only was able to kill and slurp up the souls of Aeldari that were close enough to the location now known as the eye of terror. Any Aeldari who dies has their soul captured by Slannessh. This is Slannessh having his/her pinkie finger in all Aeldari souls. Unless you have a soulstone. As long as you don't die, you can live without a soulstone.

I think the core of the chaos gods is misunderstood for the most part. It seems to me Nurgel is fear in general, and fear of death in specific. Thus everything that invokes or is related to that has been absorbed under his banner. Khorne seems to be the fury and determination of survival, tooth and claw. Slaanesh is easy for everybody, hedonism. The desire to seek out sensations and wallow in them. And birdman is the mystery of the unknown and the change it brings. I see these as being their core aspects and they just ate up lesser ideas as the chance arose from the same general family of thought until they bloated into the twisted things they are now.

I think Khorne might be more about pride than survival. They refuse any magic to aid in their carnage (and to survive, wouldn't one use any trick available?), and i've also understood that Khorne and it's followers can often have a respect for skillful, honorable warriors. I think i've also heard in one lore video that chaplains may keep an eye out for space marines who get too obsessed about mastering their melee skills and becoming the best. I agree that Nurgle has a lot to do with fear. His followers gain a kind of immortality and be freed from pain (pain being the source of fear; emotional or physical), though in return they become like a parody of the life they wished to preserve.

Oh boy! I do love to be an aeldari at the height of our society. Sure hope nothing whacky and uncharacteristic will happen!

These dudes sound very much like cenobites from the hellraiser universe

Despite knowing the vast majority of the information brought in these videos I still cannot contain my enjoyment of the series, seeing someone getting into 40k is so fun

It is Heresy that invades my brain and tells me that I feel the Drukhari are my *mood kindred*

I just realized you have a whole ass bookcase on your back.

Look up, see incoming ships, think "hmm what could those be?" Minute or two later, look back up, think "Dark Eldar.... Man I wish those were Tyranids or Necrons right now, hell, I'd take orcs...."

If this ever becomes real merch my wallet will need to be hidden.

Apologies for the well akshually, but the first animated porn was done by an American studio, and it was called Eveready Hardon and it was mainly done as a joke for a convention for animators. I think it came out in like the 1930s iirc and it's actually in the public domain and you can watch it for free on the internet! Saberspark did a video on it that's a lot more informational. But yeah you know the famous Bigfoot video? It's theorized that the suit that was made for it was made by a guy that regularly made that kind of stuff for... American porn starring big hairy jungle women. Yeah it's really uncomfortable. The first furry porn was made by Americans in the 50s too! Japanese porn didn't really take off until much later, although the first drawn tentacle porn was done in feudal Japan! The more you know!

Does Slaanesh follow the 5 second rule when someone drops their soul stone?

Love this podcast.

For the eye of terror and warp travel. In star wars you'd go into another dimension that let's you go ftl through the hyperdrive. As for the eye imagine the breach from dragon age inquisition but on a galactic scale and no mark to close it.

Another good episode, a bit heavy on the analogies could have done with a bit more verbatim lore (i know its always in flux and open to interpretation) but still a a dam fine episode

[@TealWolf26]

*quietly sidles in for a rewatch*

[@cyberellawho876]
