The story of Magnus is the perfect version of the "Lost Son" story. He wants, so very much, to just go home... However, equally, he "knows" that he never can. He's wrong, but that is why it's perfect.

[@Warrior_warlock]

Well the Emperor did give him an impossible ultimatum, a choice between his father and his sons. Ultimatums always backfire. If your father made you choose, would you abandon your children?

[@cursedkei66]

@@Warrior_warlock Except he didn't. The entire exchange was revealed to be a Tzeentchian lie; what actually happened was that his last uncorrupted shard burst in asking for forgiveness and the Emperor said No because its too late. Echoes of Eternity has revealed just how much Tzeentch has warped Magnus's perception.

[@Warrior_warlock]

@@cursedkei66 oh, I haven't gotten that far yet. That's a shame. I liked the Magnus novella and scene.

[@berilsevvalbekret772]

​@@cursedkei66 not exactly. We don't know what truly happened because as people have said before Vulcan cannot know what the fuck happened there. Not to mention Emperor amd Malcore are known to change certain memories in Primarchs before. My theory is both are sort of true. When Magnus refused the OG offer Emperor made another plan that required Magnus to think the first one was never real to begin with.

[@YakubTheFather]

Why it upsets me that “prodigal sons” is a successor warband with no remotest and not a rebel group that wants to go back with that shard of Magnus leading

[@JZ0UK]

I don't think Magnus and Vulkan are that different, Magnus was probably the next most humanitarian of the primarchs? Prosporo was utopian and humans and Astartes lived and learned together?

[@4hire565]

I didn’t know that

[@azertyqwerty8398]

The Khan was also pretty chill with normal people and went against Dorn's battle plans to protect more people, even when Sanguinius warned Jaghatai that saving this many lives would put him in danger. I think Sanguinius was also nice to simple men and women, but I can't think of any particular event that showcased it.

[@4hire565]

@@azertyqwerty8398 the Khan was probably super cool with his people, just gave them motion sickness every time he talk to them for some reason

Vulcan was kind and humble while magnus was kind but not humble at all. He kept on when warned by many. I’m a magnus fan but there are many moments in the books showcasing that trait. As for leman whopping magnus…..had some considerable help against a guy who was reluctant.

[@Kristian.B.Kristiansen]

It is an amazing scene; The Death Guard has the Salamanders dead in the warp. Daemons flooding the ship and Terminators boarding it. And then their leader begins to panic, as he senses an enormous mind envelop the Salamanders ship and he flees in near-blind terror. That is just how mighty Magnus is within the Warp. He passed through Geller-fields, froze hordes of demons and guided a ship safe to Terra in the otherwise impenetrable Ruinstorm.

[@ivylt1274]

Its hard to believe that someone like Vulkan isnt the most beloved amongst his brothers. Perhaps his down to earth nature rubbed some of his brothers the wrong way? Its quite ironic that the one brother that can tear you to pieaces with his bear hands is the softest of them all.

[@Kristian.B.Kristiansen]

Primarchs had the egos and dramatic personalities of Homeric Heroes. Someone down to earth and with a "plain" personality (for a super human demigod) was never going to everyone's farvorite.

[@ivylt1274]

@@Kristian.B.Kristiansen i guess Vulkan with such a personality is as human as they come. Even with us mere mortals, someone with such a trait would not be anyones favourite.

[@TheJonamir]

Before he went full daemon, Magnus’ actions proved that he was always loyal and altruistic. This furthers the tragedy of his story and his legion. So much depth to their story

[@berilsevvalbekret772]

Even as deamon prince his altruistic nature though twisted still exists. He wants to create a heaven for all psykers in his new planet for one. He attacked the Fenris for his ritual when he could have used a much less defended planet. Yes he killed shitton of innocent people but the fact that he still went for a target for his ire back in the day speak volumes.

[@randomcenturion7264]

Magnus would've had a lot of like about Vulkan. He and his sons were different, just like the Thousand Sons. He supported the Librarius, was humane and valued knowledge and good craftsman ship and...well, aside from Curze, Vulkan could get along with just about anyone.

[@jellydamgood]

Leman "everyone but me must get rid of their pyskers" Russ probably hates Magnus because deep down he knows the necessity of psykers. Ah if only he had bundled him back to Terra as the emperor intended instead. Emperor dammit. It's telling all the cool dude primachs like Sanguinius, Jagathai and Vulkan are fond of Magnus.

[@JIMT412]

"Come brother, let me give a big and strong HUUUUUUUUUUUUUG!!"

[@miloshdrown577]

Magnus did not turn against the Imperium, the Imperium turned against him. He never meant to break the wards on Terra, he only meant to warn the Emperor. Horus manipulate Russ(not difficult) to kill Magnus, rather than being him to Terra. If a Primarch is to return from Chaos, then it will be Magnus, for he never wanted to turn.

[@erwerewolf]

Magnus and vulkan werent very different their ideals were fairly similar. Both were hopeful romantics for the future. Magnus' loss was a tragedy, russ was in the wrong, he was tricked, and to stubborn to admit it. The state of the hellish imperium is partially russ' fault. (How great is the lore that we can have such different complex opinions of it?)

[@zombieapocolypse141]

Russ was tricked, but he did regret it. He stayed in isolation for a good while in sorrow/ doubt and decided to change after the event, and I believe was the reason for why he didn't outright kill Horus when given the chance

[@erwerewolf]

@@zombieapocolypse141 this reminds me that he apparently walked around mechanically killing. In a way almoat like ptsd was suffered. Purhaps magnus showed him he was in the wrong at the last seconds before death.

[@gatereaper]

Magnus actually got along REALLY well with a handful of his brothers, and not the ones most people would expect. Before I knew much about the lore, I would have assumed Magnus, Lorgar, and maybe another traitor like Perutabo or Horus would have been the closest, but it was definitely the Khan and Vulcan that showed him the most comradery. I know you're a Wolves fan, but I truly think Magnus and the Thousand Sons falling to chaos is one of the most tragic stories to come out of the Heresy era. Magnus never wanted it, his sons never did either, they were put into a constant losing situation and just made the wrong choices. That being said... chaos Tsons is still my favorite army

[@bodricthered]

Got to disagree, when he forsaw Russ coming at him like a rabid fool he should have taken action, either running to terra first or better for the imperium shanking him as the Hradnkal broke from the warp with the entire 15th fleet prepped around it.

[@bluethunderbolt9631]

He did a lot of wrong, but a lot of it can indeed be blamed on the Emperor not wanting to explain anything. The Emperor should have known Magnus especially is not the kind of person to be "sated" with a "Because I said so". He's too curious, too confident, and especially too arrogant for that. Much like the Emperor himself.

[@titusamante2662]

just got done w Deathfire and though I read a lot of bad reviews about it, I honestly enjoyed the relationships described between Legions on Mcragge and the differences of beliefs within the Salamanders. a bit slow at times but nice nonetheless

[@chob_2916]

Man I hate Russ. He's such a hypocrit with the wulfen thing and psykers in his legion. Funny how Magnus gave him a hard time in close combat barely using his power.

[@timothylyons5686]

If the Emperor had ordered Vulcan and his Salamanders to attack and destroy Prospero, l think Vulcan would have refused. That's why the Emperor sent the Wolves, he knew Russ would obey orders no matter what.

[@jacob5700]

The Emperor didn't send the wolves to destroy Prospero. He sent them to censure Magnus. Horus intercepted the orders and changed them.

[@malekith2724]

His orders where changed by Horus, it was all to drive magnus to chaos

[@anthonyjordanmoviesandmore2470]

Actually I think Vulcan had he been able to go there and actually talk with Magnus he might have been the one to talk him into surrendering himself Brother if everything you say is true surrender yourself and throw yourself at the mercy of the emperor at the very least your sons will be there to defend the home world when the enemy attacks this is no time for us to fight

[@leonardovegaolmedo5483]

I could actually see a 40k salamanders vs thousand son event. As much as the wolves and tson hate each Vulkan did defeat Magnus twice and even corrected him in the second fight about why he really came home.

[@Jaszunai]

If they had all grown up on Earth, I think there would definitely have been a bond merely from the time spent together. I think that by the time they all met, they were already all grown-up and some of their personalities were incompatible as a result. There's also the fact that those with the harsher upbringing were likely jealous of the others, and this caused a rift between them. Ultimately, it doesn't really matter since the Heresy separated even the closest of Primarchs.

[@dmajor9982]

Saying they’re opposite isn’t right imo. Both cared for humanity, knowledge and arts. Both shared their wisdom and tried to better the imperium far beyond war
