[@Prophetofthe8thLegion]

It is not enough. We stand in the dust at the end of centuries of useless sin and endless failure. The Legion was poisoned and we sacrificed an entire world to cleanse it. We failed. We are the sons of the only primarch to hate his own legion. There, again, we failed. We swore vengeance on the Imperium, yet we run from every battle where we don't possess overwhelming force over a crippled enemy. We fail, again and again and again. Have you ever fought a battle you'd struggle to win, with no hope of running away? Have any of us? Have you ever, since the Siege of Terra itself, drawn a weapon with the knowledge you might die? I will not see my life whored away without meaning. Do you hear me? Do you understand me, prince of cowards? I want vengeance against a galaxy that hates us. I want Imperial worlds to cower when we draw near. I want the weeping of this Empire's souls to reach all the way to Holy Terra, and the sound of suffering will choke the corpse-god on his throne of gold. I will cast a shadow across this world. I will burn every man, woman and child so the smoke from the funeral pyres eclipses the sun. With the dust that remains, I will take the Echo of Damnation into the sacred skies above Terra, and rain the ashes of twenty million mortals down onto the Emperor's palace. Then they will remember us. Then they will remember the Legion they once feared."~Talos Valcoran

Seth had a great point though. They are not the Blood Angels. Astaroth had no right to slay Flesh Tearer marines. If anything it's a smack in the face for Seth. As if Seth would be un-able to do the deed himself. Seth isn't stupid, he knew his chances for beating Astaroth was slim at best but still showed up and put in a good shift.

More criminally underrated characters (to me at least): Urien Rakarth- the Drukhari who may or may not be the first of the Haemonculi, the one who actually taught Fabius Bile some of his stuff, and possibly one of the oldest and most horrifically evil entities in the galaxy. He has died and come back to life so many times now that even it is boring to him. Pedro Kantor- one of the few Space Marines defined not by triumph, but by defeat, and by how he and his chapter survived despite the odds and rose to become better after their defeat The Deathleaper- a Tyranid that literally toys with its victims, driving them to paranoia and terror before finally finishing them off Aun'shi-- an Ethereal who actually got into melee with Orks and won; one of the few Ethereals whom even the Farsight Enclaves have any respect for Nork Deddog- the most loyal Ogryn in the Imperium, who once headbutted an Ork Warboss to death Also, in memory of awesome characters who are no longer with us: Duke Sliscus, Kheradruakh, Lady Malys, Lukas Bastonne, Mogul Kamir, Captain Al'Rahem

[@robertomacari501]

I was literally upset finishing the Night Lords trilogy. I’ve never gotten so invested in characters and story, especially not in 40k anyway. The way Aaron writes feels like watching a movie to me as well haha. I don’t really get that from other writers. It’s like he ends a chapter suddenly and then the next chapter gets straight to business. Only way I can describe it is like a scene cut to a new scene in a movie. I would really hope he continued on the story but he has said himself he is a slow writer. Plus with the pace 40k lore moves at and is refreshed I can see it being an issue that Black Library pushes him in other directions for the larger scale “plan” if there is one haha.

[@synergy8879]

[@americancaesar4715]

My personal favorite underrated character in 40k is Ortan Cassius, the Ultramarine senior chaplain and master of sanctity who has a famous Deathwatch kill team because he's not your typical goody two shoes by the book Ultramarine. He reminds me of a 40k version of Cato the Elder; a Roman senator during the Punic Wars who was famous in his speeches ending with Carthago Delenda Est (Carthage must be destroyed in Latin), but instead of Carthaginians he hates with a fiery passion it's Tyranids lol

Eldar are a pretty dope faction and they're definitely criminally underrated and the true underdog of the setting. Eldar constantly get worfed almost as bad as their avatar of the God of war. Imagine every time a baneblade showed up in a book it gets immediately destroyed by a named character even tho it's ment to be one of your most powerful units. As far as being the underdog of the setting well they can't afford to throw bodies at the problem like the guard does, they don't have super durable armor and they have to punch above thier weight class constantly while minimizing casualties against forces like space marines, nids and guard. And to make things even worse in order for new eldar babies to be born rangers need to make an expidition to a DAEMON INFESTED crone world to find even a handful of spirit stones for the next generation.

I'm so happy you included Barabus Dantioch. (don't know if that's spelled correctly, I listened to the audiobook) Little extra Barabus lore for those who don't know him. During his work on the Pharos device, his closest companion was an Imperial Fist. There were hundreds of individuals working on the Pharos, but it was Barabus himself that learned how the Pharos worked and how to operate it; with emotion. An Iron Warrior, learned to use his emotions as a tool to operate the Pharos. He prevented traitor forces from learning how the Pharos worked. And during all of this, Barabus was in a heightened state of torturous agony due to his previous trials and injuries that he wouldn't get tended. He took this pain willingly as penance for his traitor legion, without telling a soul. Barabus is about the only thing from the Iron Warriors that I like and I put him right next to Rylanor in terms of legendary heroes. Did not expect you to mention him here. Big thanks.

So many of the loyalist chapters its just Brother!-For the emp-Brother!-Kill the heretics-Brother! and just blends together into surface feeling character development. The Night lords trilogy and the eisenhorn/Ravenor novels are so damned good though love the character development in those

[@benvacco8997]

Imma pick up one of those space Spartans, I’m not super into kit bashing, but that’s going to make a great present for my brother.

[@ZetatheSixth]

Talk about Sevetar damn it! He's the Nightlord worth talking about!

[@axeljonathanludolf4871]

I find it interesting how you can see from what times Huron and Abbadon came from. Abbadon uses his SM like they were still a legion and uses power. Huron comes from a chapter, who had limited options and had to micro manage his forces

[@black0raven]

pleasantly surprised, I watched this video fully expecting that you couldn't show me any new heroes to be praised. But now I need to read up lore on 2 of them. Thank you :D

[@Raze4283]

Talos has long been one of my favorites. The Night Lords series is so good.

[@lizadon0740]

Personal I think numinor is really underated.

[@Tobi13951]

I don't know if he is underrated but i really like Commissar Cain and i think he is an awesome character and quite unique. but i mainly like to read stories about people who are not spacemarines, even though spacemarines are dope AF. I just like some lighthearted stuff in my stories about death destruction and damnation.

[@mead813]

Sevitar, from HH also written by ADB, is another really "fun" Night Lord.

[@InstabilerStoff]

Loyalist Iron Warriors

[@afsdgdfgergerg]

The best part of waking up, is Majorkill in your sub feed!

[@PuckCld]

thank you for doing something other then space marines, not that they are bad or anything just overdone by everyone else and this shit is cool too

[@JL3339]

Yriel was one of the things that got me interested into 40k.

[@willyboy7141]

Damn son. Of all the weeks to have to replace my alternator, it’s when a limited mini is beastly looking and pretty damn cheap 😂another amazing vid though man!

[@captain_torket3254]

The reason why Talos was so likable is not because of GW but because of its original author, Aaron Dembski-Bowden. Talos, Argel Tal, Lotara Sarrin, Cyrene Valantion, Lhorke, Esca... So many nuanced and interesting "evil" characters that guy created. Also some of the most memorable and well written female characters in 40k. Even Kharn and Erebus became enjoyable, even fucking Angron made me feel for him in the novel Betrayer. Can't wait to see what new badass characters that guy is gonna create in the coming years ! btw cool video content, dude ;) I appreciate your humor.

[@ReverendPONT]

I can't wait for Hurons Novel that's coming out in May. It's up for Preorder on Amazon and was a nice unexpected find.

[@luminaricsteel7303]

Chapter master Tu'shan and Vulkan Hestan need some love

[@STVODVIL]

Talk about a good Wednesday Majorkill and The Rageaholic posting today. Hell Yeah!

[@Tomcat13436]

The Avatar of Khaine is a criminally underrated character. A cool idea I have is that the Ynnari (or another Eldar faction like the Harlequins, hell maybe the shards themselves) could try to reassemble enough shards to fully restore the Bloody-Handed God to break into Slaanesh’s palace. We could have an epic duel between Khaine and Slaanesh, maybe even a round 2 with Khorne.

[@bjrnterjesen651]

This was pure awesomeness in video form.. All hail the great Majorkill

[@astraycat5428]

Mephiston cheif librarian of the Blood angles is an actual goat during the events of The Devestation of Baal and i highly recommend people read it hes so fucking badass

[@blackabyssgaming2917]

Bro I would like to see you do top 5 underrated battles that would be badass

[@passgo8507]

I used to be a normal, well adjusted person. But after watching Majorkill, I am now obsessed with plastic models and sci fi knowledge, work out like crazy, and assault people named Timmy! Thanks Majorkill! 👍

[@lucypher5661]

I want to add Saul Tarvitz to this list, because I think he is the only emperors children to in body the strive for perfection correctly. He was a line officer who while being competitive didn’t feel the need to rise in the ranks and wanted to be the best officer he could be. And willingly flew down to istvan 3 when he knew it was gonna get virus bombed to warn the marines.

[@0mn0mable]

Big time vibing with this list. Friggin love the Blood Angel storyline in present-time Wh40k, Astorath the Grim is a BA. Huron for warmaster! So when/where are we having that JO sesh bae?

[@DarkSoulsReject]

Just ordered my space Spartan can't wait for him to arrive

[@TheBenomatic]

Majorkiiiiill! Keep doing you!

[@Dugrath]

I loved the Night Lords Trilogy and I really empathized with Talos while reading it. If you haven't read them, highly recommend!

[@Clappincardboard]

Love these kinds of videos! More underrated character vids please.

[@MoltenGwazi40k]

Hell yeah more majorkill!

[@Kallnar]

Majorkill, you need to get on the Yesugei hype train. One of the greatest and wisest astartes psykers of any era. And after that, Shiban Khan, one of the most rugged and tested Marines of the heresy.

[@Rickedemon]

Yriel is defiantly my favorite, wish he got some more stuff in the lore.

[@lowresquail5528]

This was weird timing, Just on the last book of the Nightlords omibus. You fucking legend, you.

[@Man5Cheese]

Talos getting some much deserved(?) love makes me so happy :)

[@TheOfficialYOBC]

I was just finishing Astorath´s book. I love this badass!

[@redluke8119]

I've been a subscriber since the very beginning I'm talking before sonic the autistic hedgehog era. You are my favorite KZbinr you clearly put so much passion and energy into this. Keep at it MajorKill! You're doing the Emperor's work.
