THE IMPERIUM'S WORST JOBS - Part 3 | WARHAMMER 40,000 Lore / History

[@Luetin09]

Another compilation of 40K Fates and 'Jobs', we're starting to reach a limit tho on documented nightmare roles for humans within the Imperium - sp looking forward to Episode 4 - we may have to delve into the speculative - which may be no bad thing as it allows us to go forward and back in history, and off into tangents that have not been covered. So I look forward to that when we get there. AS USUAL enjoyed? Drop a like, consider the old subscribe ! thanks all !

is there any way we could get a look into the real world history of the lore? those of us who are newer to the universe have only ever known a 40k that has deeply established lore, but dont know how it evolved over time. like when did genestealers stop being their own thing and become part of the tyranids? how much information was there about the horus heresy before the book series started in 2006? like a history of the editions and codices and stuff?

I think servitor maintenance would be a pretty grim job. Every day, you're up close and personal with one of the most common horrors of the Imperium, staring into the eyes of human beings that have been reduced to unthinking, unquestioning machines. There's also the possibility that at any time, one of the sullen, expressionless faces carted into your shop could be one you recognize. Sure, it might not be the most dangerous or strenuous job, but I can't imagine dealing with something like that on a daily basis wouldn't have an effect on most people

It never fails to amuse or amaze that within the imperium, which regularly deals with lovecraftian horrors of the warp, unrelenting tyranids and orks, and the sheer hell of being a drukhari slave, the concept of “worst existence” doesn’t fall to a guardsman having to fight a genestealer cult, or a space marine having to endure decades or centuries of constant battle, but it falls to simply being a regular person having to interact with other regular people.

You talking about chaos marines having a disconnect in their perception of time reminded me exactly why I love chaos marines. The fact that chaos terminators for instance most likely are veterans of the Horus heresy. The idea that a singular soldier has 10,000 years of combat experience under their belt is just such a chilling prospect. And I adore for instance how in red tithe shadraith just teleports throughout the decks of the ship with no care for normalcy, how he views the night lords before him as petulant children entirely naive. I read that book for the carcharadons but fell in love with characters like shadraith.

In all honesty, I think being the 40k equivalent of a repair technician would be an absolutely harrowing experience. Imagine reporting to a Mechanicus adept, who refers to you as at best a number and looks like something between a pale, gaunt man and some kind of cyber zombie, and being told it’s your job to swap out the blades on a meat packing plants saws, or to replace the pilot lights on a ship’s sub-warp engines or, worst of all, perform maintenance on a whole slew of servators. Now imagine crawling through whatever rusted gantries and ducts connect wherever you are to where you need to be, along with whatever poor souls share your unfortunate task, a good chance any one wrong step sends you plummeting down from such a height that the bottom can’t be seen from where you are. Then you finally get to you task, the machines still running (because it would be inefficient to to them off) and you just have to move past those running meat saw blades, one wrong step meaning you be part of tomorrow’s lunch. Or rappelling down past idling engines to swap the broken pilot light, the heat making you drip with sweat, knowing if you drop even a single tool you’ll be killed for incompetence or disrespecting the machine god. And the worst task of all, the servators. To begin, the smell, imagine the pure rancid stench that is sweat, machine grease, urine feces, and most probably blood. Then you walk up and see twisted flesh and metal mockeries of human beings staring back at you with blank empty eyes, perhaps you even recognise them. As you open them up, what was once the contained smell of human waste is put on full display, as you scrape and scrub away any leakages, likely covering yourself in its muck. Perhaps worse of all is the potential that the servator’s mind wipe was faulty and as you poke and prod it’s insides it flinches and perhaps even weeps from its eyes, all the while you feel the pressing guilt of what you’re doing, knowing you’ll probably have to do it again. You’ll likely die during any of your jobs, and even the less lethal ones will make you wish you were dead. Pure hell.

[@mobbofmobs8937]

I was looking to see if anyone else thought of that. I think that any part of making a servator has to be very grim to. First you have to deal with mostly violent criminals try to get out. Then trying to add augments to people of wildly different body types that if you mess up could at best, take a wild swing at you. Then there are all of the "extra bits" after you are done cutting and probably a bit of waste leakage just as matter of course. There is probably a lot more it's just a bit to late for me to think about now

Two for one with the Eversor Temple of the Officio Assassinorum. You have the Eversors themselves, which are basically just augmented, drug-fuelled nightmares like the archoflagellents who are given spikes of pain every second of every hour of every day anytime they're not in cryosleep and have a target to kill in order to instill in them as much blind hatred of their target as possible. They're the least subtle tool the Officio possesses, essentially being berserk killers who will end the lives of pretty much anyone and anything between them and their intended target. Given how mentally unstable they are, the Eversor assassins constantly record the events of their mission so that the record may be recovered when the assassin's task is complete and is put back into cryosleep. You can't exactly get a verbal after-action report from an Eversor, and even if you could, it probably would be along the lines of "I killed the first dude with a wooden toy horse, and then killed his buddy by ramming the first dude's legs up his asshole." Heavy on the grizzly details but lacking in actual information. However, this leads into the theoretical job of being the most likely heavily traumatized Officio adept who must watch the recordings in order to compile the Eversors' after-action reports.

I would say an Iron Hands aspirant Marine. Your existence will be brief, harsh, filled with self-loathing, and if you fail (which is very likely to happen), you'll be turned into a Servitor. And even if you succeed, you will be even less human than most Astartes, as the Iron Hands firmly believe that _"The Flesh is weak."_

[@isaiahsmith6016]

Though it is loss on the Iron Hands themselves, the irony only makes it worse as their own primarch would've disagreed with such beliefs and believed that his sons should've learned to trust their own flesh, not abhor it.

[@rarehydra1179]

Id imagine being an imperial guard medic or field surgeon would considerably unpleasant if you think about it. Your the one tasked with stapling back together the bodies of guardsmen who managed to survived bolt rounds.

[@fizipi6495]

As a father you got me really good with the blackships at the end. It still hurts listening to this part. Great video.

[@Tekdruid]

To be fair, *the* very worst fate imaginable in the 40k 'verse would _probably_ be getting captured alive by the Dark Eldar Haemonculi, who would then proceed to turn you into something like a somehow still living and fully conscious tapestry of raw flesh and exposed nerves.

[@alecryan5962]

Another great video! I think my favorite description of the Imperium comes from The Twice Dead King: "the sheer grandeur of its inefficiency. It was, at least, worthy of consideration."

[@CosmicBackgroundRadiation01]

I’ve literally cried thinking about 3 things: 1. The thoughts of someone in a penitence engine. 2. The thoughts of someone captured and tortured by a humunculae. 3. The sheer hatred of lower beings by the Drukhari and aeldari.

[@Inkling2B]

Excellent point about ambiguity. Not everything can be categorized so neatly. We live in a universe of unknowns.

[@THExRISER]

Finally, the trilogy is complete.

[@XzMondayNightzX]

The detective analogy at the start is a great way to explain vast works like Warhammer and obscure like Elden ring. It's why I like 40k. I'm not interested in tidy narratives "Placed in boxes with labels.". I like to dig and try to figure things out.... really get that "Ah ha!" moment. And this channel has a lot of "Ah ha!" moments that's why it's so good. (Also because the narration is amazing and frees me up to do other things at the same time... effectively doubling my lifespan however short and abrupt it may be.) Even the sponsor is tied in with the content and direction.

[@jonlee6794]

reposting a request: is there any way we could get a look into the real world history of the lore? those of us who are newer to the universe have only ever known a 40k that has deeply established lore, but dont know how it evolved over time. like when did genestealers stop being their own thing and become part of the tyranids? how much information was there about the horus heresy before the book series started in 2006? who is matt ward and why does everyone hate him? like a history of the editions and codices and stuff?

[@GoldenCollaredGaming]

Saw the released one hour ago on this immediately assumed a year ago and had to do a double take. I've really been watching too much of the archive. Emperor praise you for your work

[@JjayNC8L]

I like to imagine gelt more like a token than a flat out valued currency. Like a "get whatever you need and are paying for within reason" coin, that is recognized and useable as such across the imperium, and as such, valuable to anyone no matter where they are in the imperium, given ofc they are near barterable resources to begin with

[@ATF-]

John Wick coin kinda thing

[@piotryellow]

This one hits hard after just playing Hardspace Shipbreaker. Nicely done.

[@Newmcast]

For those individuals who prefer a simplified/ complete story with a less ambiguous ending, I'm in the process of summarizing the entire Hourus Heresy series. I'll be going book by book condensing the 12 hour novels into shorter length videos that give an understanding of the Horus Heresy, primarily for beginners but also a overall summary of events for the less cohesive parts of the stories, stay tuned for more details but I hope the series will be a good primer for anyone wanting to read the Siege of Terra series!

[@The_Archivist407]

Cool!

[@emmaselmeci966]

Hey, Luetin, I wish you to get well soon, and I hope you're listening, because I have a suggestion for this particular series of yours. Nullships are Inquisitorial ships monitoring the Eye of Terror for Chaos activities. These ships are said to be able to enter the Eye of Terror and use specially trained psykers for the purposes of their missions. Of course, "working" on one of these ships is quite horrible, psykers go mad, traitor legions attack you or other warp shenanigans happen. You should totally look into it, the 1988 Slaves to Darkness is where I've read of them (page 144)

[@erdnase1872]

A series on necromunda would be amazing. Thank you for the fantastic videos.

[@jicudi]

I just passed the section where you talked about Soylent Green. I would like to fully endorse you making short tangential forays into history that correlate with Warhammer lore.

[@sealking3838]

I think that Nobles might have huge Harems to pick from to fulfill their needs so that may be quite unpleasent.

[@noelwright1165]

I love kickin back and having a few beers while watching this series it's bloody great after a busy day. Cheers Luetin mate great vids!

[@psychotripnerdstuff]

Luetin I adore your 40k vids. But I would also love some history vids with the same vibe and energy. Or even just referencing more real history to help explain things in your 40k videos. Sort of like your resource worlds video. Real examples really helps immerse you into the 40k verse.

[@Nyctonaut]

1:05:00 Reminds me of those water collector spike things in Tank Girl! Lol

[@Oroberus]

Yay, 77 minutes of grim-dark social horror!

[@johnstatler1345]

In response to the invitation I love the real historical references; I think they add a lot of value. I feel the same about identifying all the parallels to earlier literature, especially mythology. So much of Warhammer is unabashedly drawn from pre-existing material; which is a great way to make things epic and is more fully appreciated when it's more understood.

[@Pimpchimp1000]

Yay Luetin Video!

[@AidenS1234-t7x]

Honestly being an inquisitor would probably be a pretty crappy job for the average person. While yes they get a lot more luxuries than your average imperial citizens, just think of the mental toll such a job would take on someone. It would be like having to make the infamous moral question of who to run over with the train, the 5 innocent people or the 1 convicted criminal. Now imagine multiplying those numbers by 100 or 1 thousand and then having to make those decisions every single month, hell probably more like every week. This isn’t even mentioning the massive mental toll it must take on the inquisitor’s to be dealing with chaos so much. As Stringstorm’s song goes “for every burden there is someone to bear it, behind the greater good the sins we commit.” All too often a physical toll is looked at when referring to the worst jobs but often the mental toll a job might take is overlooked.

[@l2fennone798]

great video as always , would be nice if you make an indepth video about Adepta Sororitas

[@ThoseKidsAreEPIC]

Very new to Warhammer in general and loving your videos for learning more about it. I imagine a pretty horrible role in the Imperium would be the people they test medicine/drugs/augmentations on. Rapidly going through and building on withdrawals, side effects, and rejections would quickly demolish your body and mind in difficult to expect manners and after enough of this would leave you vegetative to a point where the Imperium would no longer learn anything from testing on you and they'd need to find a role for a new mindless cripple and I already know of a few types of jobs - thanks to your channel - that would likely become their destiny. There's an argument they could use criminals or heretics for these jobs, but most likely they'd want people with more baseline and average starting points to get more accurate data, so they'd probably set up controllable communities where swift romantic pairing would be encouraged or enforced since the children would mutate to pointless degrees if a parent is too far along with their jobs. So likely it would be large communities of people being experimented on, knowing their fates ahead of time, likely having to support their collapsing but still useful family members, bearing children that they know will live out the same fates, all with the knowledge that they will all eventually be condemned to cyborg like servicer fates despite doing nothing wrong to deserve such a fate.

[@loomingzenith9279]

Every job is vital to the Imperium. To say otherwise is Heresy

[@ryzziktrognesou1]

Nobody in the Human processing crew: "It's not much, but it's honest job!"

[@karrimgyver]

Compaired to other jobs, I'll take that any day

[@kevinthegibster]

Love your channel and always pumped to see a new video drop!

[@davidodonovan1699]

300 views in 3 minutes. Very impressive. Legend Luetin09 man. You're video "worst jobs in the imperium" part one, the first Warhammer lore I ever watched an got me hooked. Thanks man. Before that, I just thought it was something that seemed interesting via the memes. But again, you're video got me into it properly. Well done man. Again, legend man.

[@jackwilliams4087]

At this point I wonder if there is any humanity left in the imperium, empathy is gone as is sympathy, two of the key aspect of humanity.

[@redx4013]

I disagree, people have been killing each other since the rock was invented.

[@redx4013]

I disagree, people have been killing each other since the rock was invented.

[@cookieofkhaine4904]

It's humanity just the absolute worst parts of it. Though I wouldn't consider astartes and primarchs human but more mutant creatures of an unknown being ( We still don't know what Big E really is)

[@jowizzle1234]

I never comment on videos. But I've been waiting for this video for so long and I'm so happy right now. Dude, you're channel is amazing. It's captivating and narrated very well. Keep up the good work, man. You've helped me more than you know.
