What Would Santa Claus look like in Warhammer 40k?

[@noneofyourbusiness2437]

I'm just imagining a situation like in DC Comics where every year Santa goes to give Darkseid a lump of coal. But instead of Darkseid, every year Santa dives head first into the Eye of Terror to personally hand Abbadon the Dispoiler a lump of coal, despaite whatever defenses, spells, wards, or curses he has in place. Even if he's mid Warp Transit. Abbadon WILL get his lump of coal, whether he likes it or not. Every year, on the dot, for ten thousand years. He has a permanent spot at the very top of Santa's naughty list.

[@AlexGoldhill]

If Santa becomes corrupted by Chaos I feel that it's only fair that Krampus becomes an Imperial Saint. Spreading fear and woe to the enemies of humanity, punishing wicked children who doubt their divinley appointed authority figures and serving as an expiring example of how even the most unclean and worthless mutants can find purpose through service to the Golden Throne.

Welp. I guess I'm kitbashing an ordo hereticus inquisitor today.

I was literally JUST thinking about this exact thing, the coincidence is crazy. Before watching imma just throw down what I brainstormed myself before seeing this video: *he's a Perpetual given his immense age *his reindeer are Daemons in the same way the Space Wolves have Daemon Wolves *Probably got some crazy psychic power on par with the Cacodominus given he can know the naughtiness and preferred gifts of every child within the Imperium, perhaps the whole galaxy, similar to how the Cacodominus could mind control entire sectors *Probably has a Daemonic arch-enemy or perhaps Daemonic form relating to Krampus *If Krampus did operate alongside him, he'd definitely go around consuming the souls of would-be Chaos followers so as to starve the other gods, which would make him in a way a good thing, even if he would target them as children *Probably an enemy of Slaanesh, given Slaanesh is all those self-serving vices while Santa is all about charity and the spirit of giving, so those who prefer getting gifts fall to Slaanesh while those who prefer giving gifts are in the good graces of Saint Nick That's about all I could think of, so now I'll watch the video to see what ideas I've missed

[@Grugmax620]

Random slightly stupid/curious thought due to the nature of big E wouldn’t the imperium have tried to hunt him down, I can only imagine something similar to Santa vs Darkside from DC comics but I also don’t know warhammer that well besides stories from KZbin content

[@ReaperofValhalla]

Imagine the Opposite. The Jolly Angel. He hates everyone but a very few special people. For instance, some of the Lamenters. Not all just a few. Another would be a nonvice sister hospiter in a less active sector that preformed miracles for those in need. Maybe a heavily scarred Governor in a now barren planet who only crime was that he could not do more. A young Healer of a Maiden World who cares for a wide variety of wildlife including some young humans. The very rare people that goes on the Nice List are so rare that they make Blanks look like Guardsman Construpts. Once a terrian year a present will materize under a form of plantlife near those very few on the list. On desert worlds a single plant of local funa is used. On ships a new type of fungi is formed to give the present and is found to help clean the air around it if it is allowed to grow. On barren planets a small bush of extinct plantlife is used. Under the plants that give some form of atmosphere cycle is a single present spefically tailored to that individual for their hearts most innocent need. What exactly is presented is far and wide. From simple trinkets and toys to a mechanical mouse restoring entire limbs and augmented organs to what could only be described as a reverse super virus bomb that restored a barren world. There is only one exception and that is to the Emperor of Mankind. Every year there is a plume of smoke within of chambers of the golden throne. Every year it is there for only about 10 minutes before it is completely gone. The Custodes dont know what it is, Inquistors are stumped, Grey Knights find no source of chaos but to the Sisters of Silence it is just a pile of coal. Orginally at the end of the Hersey it was the size of a titain but now at the end of the 41st millennium it is less than a power pack for an astartes and it burns up within seconds.

[@digunder14]

my favorite part is the ork part is likely what would happen more or less even if chaos did not ruin santa

[@NamebeDale_592]

Just gonna say it this is a terrifying thought

[@UNSCMarine117]

I love the orks take on the red saint. Merry orkmaz.

[@hattoripool1533]

This gives me an idea, what if we have mythology characters like Sun Wukong in Warhammer 40k

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

Or religions that were worshipped by Humans over extended periods of time? It’s implied in-universe that the Abrahamic religions had managed to last at least until The Emperor’s reclamation of Terra, and that trace remnants of it might even be clinging to life by the time of the modern 40K setting. By that logic, God would probably have manifested as a minor Warp Entity LONG before the age of The Imperium… Possibly the Devil too😬 Imagine that? The actual Lucifer/Satan just casually hanging out with the Daemons of the modern Chaos Gods, and the Daemons just have this odd respect for him out of his seniority and dread reputation?

[@thesilentscreamer1595]

In ancient Chinese mythology, Sun Wukong is said to be powerful enough to challenge the Heavens and their Rulers. While you may argue that Chinese Celestial Entities have the same power level as Minor Warp Gods, it is safe to say that Sun Wukong can fight them on equal ground. With that in mind, Sun Wukong can definitely cause great havoc in Warhammer 40,000 if he ever got access to Warp powers.

[@gageriggs3914]

What if Santaand Krampus were the 2 lost primarchs?

[@micahthomas705]

The Emporer = Santa × Christ. So if he shows up, that heretics getting stuffed and mounted.

[@digunder14]

in 40k, i bet he would have been a perpetual along side the emperor

[@marlonsaimon573]

Now I'm imagining something like: Guilhiman: Hey dad, I brought you a gift this Christmas day, I made a wooden doll for you. Emperor:Your MORON how many times will I say it?? Santa Claus doesn't exist!! I KILLED HIM IN THE THIRTY-THIRD MILLENNIUM

[@darkreflection9087]

Merry Christmas

[@ashleyteran115]

Santa ate my cookies...now I feel like turning to chaos

[@l0sts0ul89]

Santas coming to kick ass

[@Ike_of_pyke]

To toss you a curveball but be on the same wavelenght of the videos you've produced so far: How would Cole McGrath handle 40k? Things to remember/will make it notable more an avergae psyker: Cole is a conduit,a gene similar to the X-gene that activates at any point in time but can be forced to activate via Raysphere tech . So he isn't bound by the limitations of a Psyker. He can abosrb others powers via certain technology and potentially become a psyker on top of his conduit powers. Due to his conudit gene, he's much more resilent and stronger than the average human being. His powers change on his own karmatic usage of them and seemingly his karma is unaffected by the whims of 3rd parties in the universe. So with al that said. you can see the challenge can't you?

[@digunder14]

who says the grimdark would be taken out? at best he would be trying to bring even the smallest yet fleeting moments of hope and joy in a galaxy that is basically against it, an up hill battle is not always one you can win

[@digunder14]

let's hope da boyz' joy is enough to remind da big red git who dey waz

[@garysuarez9614]

The 21st Primarch. Edit: conversely he becomes a minor warp deity like the Tau'va

[@chasedean4032]

I want santa to dark side tera and the custodies have just given up because he isnt a treat but the fist get angry due to there walls failing

[@Battlechicken12]

He’d have to be a dwarf

[@mysteryface6475]

Hmmm santa, almost as fast as light,strong enogth to lift hills or even mautains, punch with 20 mega tons of explosive power, be jacked as heck and be jolly and kind to every,ember of the imperium and also be considered a herstic cuz he eint deboted to the emperor and cuz hes also not contoled by the inquisition. Yea, a heratic cuz hes a good guy, nice.

[@logangrimnar3800]

Like Logan Grimnar.

[@jaydenozuna2762]

This needs to become canon

[@greytging]

We need a crossover with Mr. BONES at some point!

[@Buster-McTunder]

He’s much larger than me and I’m sure I don’t quite register on his radar. That’d be on fans of his and my own requesting it and him wanting to do something, I’ve only briefly seen a few of his videos, I’m not sure if that’s even his speed. But in some fantasy world where the stars align, I’m always game.

[@simpleman3898]

I thought I've seen everything but nope 😂😂😂

[@franciscooropeza7800]

Nice story dude 👍

[@digunder14]

honestly, i would have liked a santa who tries to be a minor good chaos god similar to the emperor except active, at least that is just me, just seems like the nature of santa kind of is just removed if he falls to chaos, just seems less interesting to me cuz he ain't even santa any more then in my opinion at least, though is still an entertaining what if

[@Book_worm.75]

Logan Grimnar

[@marlonsaimon573]

Who will be the next Jesus, Buddha, Zeus, Goku?? Maybe SCP 999??

[@CorbinJay-i3j]

Hesus would be sixk, but as a christian he would just cause the rapture

[@DrSkeletor]

krampus?

[@H3llsing901]

Hey You gonna do that Grimdark version of Ben 10 and Generator Rex video next Year?

[@Buster-McTunder]

Working on the script right now, it’s gonna be in late January but I gotta get Warframe done first.

[@H3llsing901]

@Buster-McTunder Cool 😎👍

[@LegatusLucius2]

Nope I'm out😢
