Thousands of emotionless, soulless warriors killing the enemies of humanity in the name of duty and duty alone to a corpse on a throne. There was no passion, no enjoyment, or even life in their actions. This made Kharn frantic and try to battle even harder. He also noted that while he was damaged, he wasn’t as broken as Sigismund. It’s a good parallel to show just how far the Imperium would have to fall to defeat Chaos.

I dunno man i think Kharns character development is quite well written. Our character starts as an inspiring warrior, friendly to his comrades, eager to prove his worth and loyalty to imperium. Sees a shattered, broken man who was promised to be the salvation of him and his brothers. Heart broken yet determined, he tries his best to help his father and get his approval. Witnesses a demigods decend into madness further and further every day, and still chooses to be at his side. Realising he is falling into the same madness, he tries to fix his mistakes but its too late. So he sticks to the only thing that let him feel alive. War. Until he literally becomes the embodiment of it. Bloodlust overwhelms him completely, to the point he can not differ friend from foe. As long as the blood spills, it matters not where it comes from. Not even if its from the veins of brothers he once would die for. He becomes an echo of the thirsting blood gods laughters. He forgets brotherhood, forgets his fathers love, forgets reason and sanity. Now, there is only war. Kharn was simply a son craving his fathers love, while trying to care for his brothers as much as possible. He couldent just let his innocent desire towards his fathers approval go, and it practicly killed him. Letting his need for Angrons love get the better of his sanity is relateable if you ever found yourself in a toxic parent-child relationship. His mad warmongery is also relateable for all of us found ourselves doing what harms us for the sake of escaping despair. The guys story is relateable tragedy. I like it.

I kinda like how they don't give Kharn an overly complicated story arc, because it represents Korne so much better that way. He just wants to go around and have really good duels with decent opponents, plus murder a few thousand randos on top. His isn't interested in schemes and long term plans in the same way Tzeench is, and just goes where the fighting takes him. Boring or not, this means Kharn does represent his chosen god truthfully.

This. He doesn't NEED to have deep and nuanced lore, the guy is a walking murder machine who kills some of the biggest hitters in the setting and that's why people like him.

Kharn doesn't need to be a complicated guy, just let the angry man swing his axe at things and cheer him on people.

I suppose you could say Khârn was a good character, but his tragedy is that he traded boss status for beast status. Mind you the old lore did say that he’s never come as close to death as he did after his duel with Sigismund. Let that sink in, only Sigismund has given Khârn that much trouble. In 10,000 years not even the various greater daemons of the dark gods. Infighting with the traitor legions and even the occasional cheeky Black Crusade he’s never been beaten that badly. Even Celestine couldn’t match Sigismund’s sheer balls to the walls git gudness. I still like him as the entire point of his character arc is him losing himself in a rather sad way.

Mentioning how Kharn didn't counsel or calm Angron down but egged him on just made me realize something, a lot of the traitors had first officers/ sidekicks who were more like them than they were. Mortarion hated tyrants, Typhus resisted living under Mortarion's command and tried to make his own way. Magnus was powerful but also arrogant and thought that everything could be fixed with sorcery, Ahriman thought he could make the Thousand Sons impervious to pain and turned them to dust in the process. Abaddon never questioned Horus and his tactics are incredibly similar, he has a charisma that apparently gets a lot of people on side and he seems to like spear-tip assaults. Meanwhile, if memory serves, at least Sanguinius, Corax and Guilliamen made room for their captains and commanders to question them and express their own views. I'm not as familiar with the loyalists as I am with the traitors because I collect chaos but the temperament of most of the loyalist Primarchs seem to allow their sons some autonomy of thought whereas the traitors seemed to prefer those who were just miniature versions of themselves. Notable exception: Sevetar seemed to have his head screwed on a lot better than Curze ever did.

It's insane that he has never lost his arm, despite the lack of armor.

[@argeltal_thewordbearer]

Some old lore tells that he punched the gates of Emperor's palace so hard that ceramite on his right arm shattered and he never tried to get new piece of armour since

It turns out having "lobotomy" as your legion culture makes for the most boring legion. Same goes for skarbrand. Baldemort has an excellent tale of an honourable, loyal Bretonian knight being drawn in by the martial discipline, prowess and accomplishment in combat of Khornes armies and that actually made sense. It's possible to write a good khornate character, they just don't in GW.

[@Grim67894]

Some people need boring. But balanced with badasss aesthetic. If you want the opposite of this, slaanesh and EC is an option.

[@agamer5953]

World Eaters are more boring than the blue bean counters? I've heard some whoppers in my time, but that one beats em all. 🤣

[@carcionpetto]

they obviously aren't that interesting, but to say they're the most boring region is a tad much. I feel like a whole legion comprized of only bloodthirsty berzerkers is somewhat necessary.

Erebus killed Argal Tal because he couldn’t let go of “their Lady” after she’d died and had Erebus resurrect her, iirc making her a perpetual.

Kharn was never taught manners when he was a toddler. He would always go into a ballistic hate rage when the Icecream man forgot to add a flake to his Icecream.

[@willclrh2o498]

[@aditghifari5039]

Its ironic that Kharn got the same path as his primarch, losing someone that precious to him.

[@Juel92]

I love the idea of Kharn being the most powerful non-psyker astarte in the galaxy but he's just too angry so it's incredibly hard getting any use out of him.

[@calob3927]

Can tell why Siggy loved him, he was a hop skip and a jump away from being Kharn 😂

[@DirtPoorWargamer]

Haven't seen his rules recently, but they were hilarious back in the day; basically, his attacks hit on a 2+ in close combat, and 1's were allocated to friendly units in range. The only way he could miss was if there weren't enough of the appropriate bodies at hand to cover the dice.

[@Horatio-hornswaggle]

honestly, if angron was supposed to be a healer primarch, it would be fucking hilarious if the entirety of the world eaters just became apothecaries. just angry doctors running at you about to send you to your doctors with their astarte level med kits.

You’ve never lead me astray with your sponsors and I’m actually looking for good meals I can just throw in after work and not feel gross about. You’re one of the few creators that when you say you found something you like and they’re sponsoring you I actually listen.

[@kennycai8695]

Just my take on Kharn's beatdown on Erebus: the reason why Kharn did not openly display any signs of rage is simple, that is exactly what Erebus would have wanted. There is no denying Argel Tal was BFFs with Kharn, and knowing exactly who was responsible, Kharn wanting revenge was the right call. However, had he lost his temper and behaved like your typical Khorne Berzerker, Erebus would have seen that as a victory for him, given that the smug POS wanted his fellow Traitor Marines to fully give in to their emotions and embrace the Eight-Folded Path. Even while avenging his friend, Kharn knew who Erebus was, and he was most certainly not going to give him any satisfaction by acting out. This was why Erebus was so unnerved by how coldly Kharn behaved while literally hurling him around like a rag doll before demanding him to get up.

[@Northbravo]

So if khorne is all about blood, murder, hatred, and honor why is kharn just a living meat grinder with only those first three in mind? Unless there is parts of his love for honorable battle still in there?

From what i understand when Slaneesh was born jt somehow influenced the other 3 into going way more into tha darker side of themselves than the lighter side More blood, more plagues, more plans, less of everything good

[@Inquisitor_Vex]

Honour in that, the best kills are the hard fought ones against worthy foes. The bigger & badder they are, the more glorious the victory. They aren’t going to use a super weapon to wipe out a planet, they’d rather personally kill everyone in glorious melee combat.

To answer about Khârn’s death at the Siege of Terra: Khârn’s body was dragged away by a bunch of World Eater captains. They started arguing, the one of them kill another in a rage. The bloodshed made Khârn shoot up and become revived. In other words, warp spaghetti.
