The Rubric of Ahriman I 40k Lore

[@Scholarslore]

I'd like to do some more videos on single events such as this in the future, so if anyone has any requests for topics they'd like to be covered, please let me know!

[@ancientmariner9460]

Primarchs lore would be amazing but I'll be ok with whatever you'll post. You do an amazing work.

[@Tryzanfan]

@@GTTMRC95definitely!

[@nihil1234]

What's the point of all these videos if you haven't done one on major HH events like Istvaan or the Siege of Terra?

[@samaritan_sys]

Even without Sir Attenborough’s affect, you still do a bang-up job in editing the voice to a natural tone. Your content still stands out!

[@Scholarslore]

Thank you!

[@ilari90]

It's good, but for some reason, it doesn't hold my attention as readily. It's just the way it is.

[@CmdrGamagosk]

@@ilari90thankfully you aren’t the target audience

[@Flipadelphiia]

​@ilari90 if you need a very specific voice to hold your attention to 40k then your not really that into 40k. Hate to break it to you

[@UGNAvalon]

To be fair, _Very_ few voices can hold our attention to the same degree as the likes of Sir David Attenborough or Morgan Freeman.

[@TechNinjaSigma]

Little known fact, in response to her trickery, Ahriman cursed Yvraine and the Ynnari with a twofold-curse. 1. The Ynnari would never again be relevant within the narrative, their story forever left unfinished. 2. Yvraine would forever be depicted in pornographic content with Roboute Guilliman. It may be possible to break the first part of the curse, the second part however is likely here to stay 😈

[@jerryreynolds5700]

All according to plan

[@MrGrim]

This is now canon AND true

[@higheyrie6176]

Harsh

[@Scholarslore]

That's the real tragedy of this story

[@mmyr8ado.360]

And yet there are whispers from the farthest Exodite worlds to the dimmest alleys of Commoragh of the Aeldari presenting themselves again twofold. Whether it is the Ynnari or another faction, it is uncertain.

[@abstractspaces8186]

I really like this voice. The softer tone feels more appropriate for a scholar and it seems a bit more human in its expression too.

[@superitgel1]

Was it an AI voice? I was sure it was a person.

[@pacman10182]

Ahriman did find the black library, but was barred from entry for lack of a library card

[@attemptedunkindness3632]

Legends speak of sites out there where Ahriman could simply stream all of Black Library's audiobooks for free, but to speak of it here would only invite The Inquisition's wrath.

Gotta love some thousand sons lore

[@Scholarslore]

Indeed, I love this story from them

[@GreatAukEntertainment]

@@Scholarslore the thousand sons gotta be my second favorite traitor legion besides world eaters, I hope we get a video on khornes angry Boyz soon!

[@zapan9643]

Thanks for covering Ahriman, I have been looking forward to a lore video like this without overlooking the entirity of the Burning of Prospero.

[@Scholarslore]

It was a fun one to do. I only skipped the burning of Prospero since it's such a big topic in of itself, and I didn't want the focus of the video to drift away from the rubric.

[@attemptedunkindness3632]

@@Scholarslore I thought it was a good move, sir. My eyes tend to glaze over and the monkey banging a symbol in my head grows louder whenever I am hearing about a Shattered Legion and The Dropsite Massacre comes up. At this point it's sort of like watching a Batman movie and waiting for the scene where Bruce's parents get shot so I can get up for popcorn.

[@MrDodoFonseca]

This was simply beautiful. I love your writing and the new AI is very good as well

[@Scholarslore]

Thank you!

[@lamoixs]

Can you tone down the breathing a bit?

[@sonofeyeabovealleffoff5462]

The Thousand Sons are the ONLY traitor legion that deserve redemption and pardon by the Inquisition and fully reinstated as a legion that should work alongside the Grey Knights. Sadly, the current Imperium are so hatefully backwards, that they will not forgive. I really loathe how Tzeentch kept shitting on this badass space-Kemet/Persian legion. I love Ancient Egypt.

[@rileymcmanus6666]

Thanks!

[@Scholarslore]

Thank you so much

[@masonhall3617]

I love how you and The Remembrancer frame your channels as actual historical accounts from an in-universe perspective. You guys are the best.

[@jestinjeffries9430]

Very well done, great subject not often covered. I love how well you present everything, very well thought out and very well researched. I hope that you cover more esoteric topics like this in the future, with deep dives into the topic. I have been enjoying your channel for a while now, keep up the great hard work.

[@Scholarslore]

Thank you, I'll try to, and at some point it will be inevitable that I'll have to cover smaller, more niche topics, but they each deserve this kind of deep dive.

[@Jabberwokee]

Such a sad tale Old Ari just wanted to fix what he as broken - always one step behind a another step below

[@eagle_and_the_dragon]

Love how the voice pronounces Ahriman. He's one of my favourite 'Chaos' characters.

[@King_Himbo]

Fantastic work, as always. Your script writing and editing is without peer! Keep it up!

[@DrewEverlong]

Such a great re-upload yet again, really enjoyed this one! Well done!

[@Scholarslore]

Thank you, not a re-upload though, I never had a chance to release this one under the old model

[@DrewEverlong]

Oooooh! Well this was a great story then, I've always been curious on how the Thousand Sons were turned into who they are@@Scholarslore

[@paulellington1505]

It pisses me off that GW has made Magnus a joke. Because in my opinion he could have destroyed Russ before the Wolf King could have finished a howl if Leman wasnt layered in plot armor. Because in his Primarch books Magus uses epic levels of psychic power.

[@electro-nicrepairs4296]

All that power and he still couldn't follow simple orders.

[@muhammadhamzahamiruddin8643]

Loved this new voice that you're using in recent videos! Some suggestions: 1. Background music wich suites the video but still relaxing to hear would be enjoyable (like your exodite video, by far my most favourite video.) 2. I really like the long form content video. Please do more of it. ( Don't be afraid to do a 1 hour + version) 3. And lastly would love to hear your interaction in youtube, like replying to others comments, and feedbacks

[@Scholarslore]

Ty, I actually made a mistake with the music of this one and forgot to add a lowpass filter over it, so there is occasionally a slightly high pitched tone, which while not very noticeable, is still distracting to me. The next three videos which I've got underway are certainly going to be longer, all of the rewrites, or new scripts seem to end up around 2x longer from their originals. I think the chaos gods video might breach the 1 hour mark once its ready. And yeah I do try to respond to people, but sometimes I miss comments! I do try to read most of them though, I think with things like an AI voice its sort of essential to get feedback on how its sounding, no point putting something out if people say that its not pleasant to listen to.

[@___Me.]

This is fantastic. The writing for the script is so well put together.

[@alexivalentine4607]

Fantastic writing, man. I kinda like this voice *more*. Feels more in-universe.

[@teffsly]

The breath of air between long sentences and pauses are so good.

[@Nagah_]

Your writing is getting better and better with every video!

[@venkelos6996]

I'm sort of surprised that, between his own experiences, and hearing of massive events, such as the revival of Guilliman, that Ahriman hasn't also sworn to capture Yvraine, and both demand her secrets, and exact his vengeance.

[@gautampressman]

This is the best iteration of the new voice so far! It is Attenborough-esque but it is not him.

[@UGNAvalon]

Loving this new style of scripting: the personal comments, the direct addressing of the audience, the recurring theme/moral message spread thru out, it feels very much like a sermon given to aspiring scholars/inquisitors in the 42nd millennium! Well done! Looking forward to more! 😄

[@Colewaii]

This voice is absolutely killer, captures the same effect as David did! I’m sure your views will be back up before long

[@Trader_Spero]

Best way to Start my morning. Many thanks!

[@TheCreeperCrewLeader]

I’m loving this voice. The other one was a bit guttural for me, but this one is nice and soothing to listen to.

[@oriusnex]

Absolutely riveting all the way through, despite me already being aware of the essentialia of the content. Superb writing.

[@Trazynn]

I wish I could just ploink this voice onto any pdf / ebook. It's not yet good enough for fiction (as fiction audiobooks have the narrator emulate different personalities and accents for characters), but for non-fiction this is perfect.

[@Adam.godson]

I very much enjoy the event videos more than the broader ones. The voice is coming together very well too

[@MrGorillaGuy]

Your Best work to date! Love the new voice your writing and the lecture style of delivery! Stick with this format!! 😍

[@timkai]

This is a chunk of lore that I have somehow almost entirely missed, and this was a great lecture on it! ❤

[@SUS-ne8wz]

The new voice has grown on me. You are doing great bro, keep up the magic 👌

[@peterga3658]

i know the story this is amazing Ahriman is such an interesting character it use to be almost like the go to bad guy in 40k books for a period. we still see him in current books it was nice. i would love to get a new book or trilogy with Ahriman. a story with Ahriman Fabius Bile Asdrubael Vect Yvraine (nice voice change btw)

[@MrMysticphantom]

AI or not this is very well done. I bet despite the AI on audio... and probably at least part of the script bit you probably have several steps that still take time and effort nice work

[@Scholarslore]

None of the script is AI, I write them all myself. With the voice as well it still takes several hours of work to get the correct tone and pacing for each video, I wish it was quicker, but if I uploaded the videos as they sounded from the first generation then it would be so jarring and monotone that no one would listen to it.

[@glados4765]

Well.. Vashtorr The Arkifane doesnt lie when he makes a deal.

[@piksi4590]

30 mins again ... perfection! Another thing ... Since you have the script would it be possible to add actual subtitles instead of autogenerated ones?

[@DaSausageTroll]

This voice is the best so far, keep on outdoing yourself!

[@namelesswarrior1187]

can we get a playlist of all your videos so far, please?

[@DB_Muscle]

I really enjoyed the video - thank you!

[@terminatoruk4921]

Excellent narration - have you tuned the voice since the repost? I was fully captured and transported into the lore this time as we were with the ill-fated original narrator. It also now feels 'guilt-free' if that makes any sense and that these wonderful lore videos won't disappear again

[@Scholarslore]

Thank you. I've tinkered with it a little since the first upload, and I think I'm satisfied with how it's sounding atm. As you say it's easy to be immersed with this voice, which was sort of my goal for it. Realistically I want something which people can fall asleep to, only because that would mean that its a nicely relaxing tone.

[@terminatoruk4921]

@@Scholarslore think you've nailed it - well done!

[@Ironbattlemace]

Good stuff man.

[@Hongobogologomo]

Godd damn it. I would pay sir attenborough my living wage to hear him narrate 40k

[@MyschaCannon]

Contrary to what it's said in this video, Magnus did not turn into a daemon prince the moment he pledged allegiance to Tzeentch during the Burning of Prospero; Magnus ascent to daemonhood happened much later, during the Siege of Terra, as narrated in the novella "The Fury of Magnus", when the primarch, Ahriman and a few other Thousand Sons were searching for Magnus's lost soul shard in the imperial dungeon and faced Emps himself.

[@darktimber13]

The new voice is really good, but it's missing the modulation and significant pauses of the Attenborough voice. A little more tweaking and it will be even better than before!

[@mandroid-rb4uy]

hello ScolarLore the "Rubrik Marines" are GrimDark 40K Favourite, unfortunate victims of Ahriman's hubris and failed experiments They are still there ...as partly Sentient ashes!!! and their minds are mist a harrowing tale indeed for such Glorious Space Wizards

Every primarch is a tragedy. Horus more than any, but Magnus breaks my fucking heart.

[@spencerdouglas9]

Never stop !!!

[@pvtpain66k]

Wasn't familiar with Magnus' full story & it was awesome, thank you. Do Mortarian(& the rest of the Primarchs who turn into Daemon Princes) next, please. 🥰 He's one of my favorites.

[@Scholarslore]

Thank you! I'll cover Morty next for the primarchs I think, but more than likely the video will focus on Typhon and the general downfall of the legion. Mortarion will certainly be in the limelight for around half of that video I think.

Why are the good golds of the old world NOT in Warhammer 30k or 40k. For example Isha a God of the old wold is nowhere to be seen. The only Gods in the old world that do survive are the chaos Gods. Korn, slanesh, nergle and Zyench. The 40k and 30k all rest on the Big E which is a bit weird and stupid. What would be very interesting if the Big E found some small essense of the old world gods ( which reflected some niche worshipers of the old world gods in the milky way) and they helped him in some key or at key points in hid story ark. Or we see some forsaken humanoid species in some far of world having rekindled the worship of the old Wold gods and who are recirving their gifts and fighting the Xenos and Chaos worshipers and gods. I do miss the old world. They must come back....someway somehow.
