Stupid Nurgle...

>>27021165
Brother, what is all this talk of settling down?

Is not a life of service to the Emperor enough?
If you wanted a wife and child, you should have joined the Imperial Guard, then you could have gone off to die on some Emperor-forsaken world where no-one will even bury your corpse, leaving your family at home to become enslaved by Dark Eldar or sacrificed to the Blood God.

>>27021165
He takes a two week vacation with no pay, goes to Sub-sector Thainesia, does some things he'd rather forget, and then he goes back to serving the Emperor.

He was part of a liberation fleet, she was flirting with two Space Wolves...

He put a bolter round through her head and called it quits.

What happens in Segmentum Obscurus, stays obscurus.

>>27021169
Depends on which fluff and chapter
Older fluff said they could and it has never been retconned as far as I know

The only thing is they are psycho indoctrinated to not feel the urges and in some chapters chem gelded, the salamanders tried a breeding program but it had no higher rate of suitable aspirants so they scrapped it

>>27021358
Yeah, but Chaos is Chaos, it's a corruptive force, not just some shitty muh legacy, when he already has a far grander one in saving entire worlds of people.

>>27021448
Their reasons for falling to chaos can be simple shit like that, not everyone falls to chaos for the desire to rape the universe or kill the emperor

No he doesn't. Because this:

>He knows there are enemies of the Empire, he knows his oaths, and he also realizes there will always be enemies

Really, the only thing that'll pull a Spess Muhreen away from the Chatper is Chaos (or the Inquisition). Chaos is the perfect outlet for his fanatical devotion and crazy, genetically-enhanced drive to kill things. But living on a FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARM? Please.

>>27021467
Nah, I don't agree. They already have a legacy, their deeds and the passing on of their gene-seed and wargear. They've already got a family, and one that will remember them for far longer than some dirt farmers.

>>27021662
Psycho indoctrination isn't perfect, they have shown that before

Maybe it faded, maybe it didn't take properly in the first place

The main thing is the 40k universe is big enough that near anything can happen, not that a marine would be allowed to retire and live out his days on a farm they would probably just tear his gene seed out and send him on a suicide mission or something but it doesn't stop the possibility of him wanting the quiet end

* Robot Guillettemuff (HAHAHA no.)
* That one Chaplain who's sometimes with Uriel who takes no shit and knows how to make bitches shut the fuck up.

>>27021756
I though the point of Ultramarines is that they could not relate to normal humans; they consider themselves the pinnacle of Astartes to the extent that even other Chapters have difficulty being near them.

She is not as strong as he is. Exposure, poor food and bad water takes her.

He was pretty much all wrong. There are guys whose job it is to investigate the taint of chaos inside the chapter. You're supposed to report it to them. He went over their heads in order to get Titus out of the way so he could set about on his plan to convert the Ultramarines to Chaos.

The true glory of humanity is to recognize these doubts and embrace ourselves as imperfect beings, and to find strength despite such burdens. Look to your squadmates. To your sergeant. Ask them, 'from whence do you draw your strength, brother?' Have faith that they will shore up your doubts, as mortar shores up the strength of mere bricks. Take strength from them, and in time know that you shall give it back in their own hour of need. And if need be, think on the four billion people of an agri-world, and how they live for one more day, even just one more hour, thanks to the willingness of a select few, such as yourself, to defend them. That is the essence of true heroism."

Didn't work, though, because he forgot that he was sterile and she thought he was a pile of shit anyway.

Maybe not the children thing, but I think in the end he could grow bored of being only revered as a superhuman killer and not loved as an human.

"we are superior" "we are your lords" "we can kill any of you with one finger" "why aren't you on your knees polishing our boot plates?"

The Astartes chapters are rife with heresy and mutation, yet left to roam the galaxy in their unclean and unsound selves pretending that they are above even the Inquisition, even though the latter answered to naught but The Emperor and Malcador The Hero themselves, who reigned high above the Adeptus Terra.

one of the high points in Brothers of the Snake is when the main space marine squad of the book gets sent on diplomatic duty to attend the crowning of a new monarch on one of the nearby sector worlds.

They're flummoxed at the soft beds and royal treatment, and when the newly-minted boy king invites them to mingle-

>"Mingle? What in the Emperor's name does that mean?"

-with the crowd at the gala, they proceed to stand rock-solid for the next hour while the court peers at them and occasionally one of the braver attendees comes forward to touch their armor in reverence.

Then the sergeant notices an Inquisitor he recognizes slinking off into a nearby hall and takes off after him, totally without warning much to the crowd's shock.

about the only space marines who didn't choose to be space marines are the space wolves

>>27022751
the point could be argued that make this choice as children around the ages of 10-14 but still consent is consent in the Imperium

>>27022751
A good deal of Marine recruits are tribal warriors who fight each other, for unknown reasons, for the golden men from the sky. The winners are then variously beaten senseless, tranq'd, or forcefully marched into the hold of a ship.

He will leave, he wills shed his armour and find life as a normal, albeit, larger thn is typical man.

Then he will be hunted down and shot for heresy by his brothers.

>There are no happy endings in 40k

What happens when a marine defects to chaos? I'd imagine a warband wouldn't exactly treat him kindly even though he wants to join their side, loyalist hate and all that

>>27022799
Depends on how much you tip.

>>27021165
Wait, space marines don't have nano bots in their blood keeping them alive indefinitely?

No wonder I never got into 40k. It sounds like the most unrealistic future ever, but I guess if you like fantasy then that's cool. Seems pretty boring if regular old space marines didn't have access to immortality (in the sense that you cannot die of natural causes, but obliterating someone's body can't be recovered from, however major wounds can such as getting your head cut off).

and a good more know what they do for the emperor because some missionary ecclisarchy preist probably told them that their "Sun God" was the Emperor, look at Blood Angel recruits, they know it's for Sanguinius and the Emperor, tribes very likely develop traditions and send their kids off with pride in their hearts hoping they make it.

>>27022818
Nah, the Imperium's tech is kind of messed up, they could make them ageless, but not immortal. Of course, even someone reduced to just a torso can still fight, as they grant such heroes the honour of being implanted into mechs.

Reminds me of that Black Templar comic where they grab the guy from his pit-fighting ring or whatever and just say "HEY. WE'RE GONNA FUCK SHIT UP AND YOU'RE GONNA HELP US. GET IN THE BAG." and whoosh him away to be genetically modified and brainwashed into a super-soldier.

Black Templars are so fucking metal.

>>27022839
>>27022818
yeah once upon a time they had a war with their AI machines and now Mankind doesn't build a computer that doesn't have an actual brain floating in a tank integrating with it. They don't trust things like nano bots, techno heresy

I guess he just goes rogue, starts doing whatever the fuck he wants for a while until he finds a way to get more directly involved with the whole Chaos scene (like finding a cult on a planet he's terrorizing or something) and then networks the shit out of it.

Or, maybe he was just wounded in battle and was taken away by Chaos forces before his brothers could suck out his glorious throbbing geneseed, then he got mind-broken into being a crazy-ass Khornate Berserker or something.

Or, I mean, I imagine if you just stay with your chapter until they engage Chaos forces and then behead your squad and show up at the Chaos HQ with a sack full of their scalps they'd probably let you in.

>>27022902
Well, the Admech do use some nanotech, including things going around healing them inside their blood stream.

But fuck the marines, they're not Admech, they've got their own genetically altered super-soldiers for that.

>>27022902
nano bots get created by rogue Mechanicum adept, they get possesed by a deamon, they replicate and take over a world not the Imperium's style

That would make sense if the offspring of a SM was human. I don't remind any body-wide genetic manipulation in the SM formation process.

>>27023041
I assume offspring would be human. Astartes are Astartes because of implants. Their DNA is still human.

>>27023092
Geneseed presence might influence the offspring to be a prime candidate for being indoctrinated, at least.

SM deff not above the Inquisition no one is. Depends on the chapter, Ultramarines like being called Lords, Imperial Fists don't. Most Legions were rife with mutation in the first place, Blood Angels, Space Wolves, Night Lords, Salamanders to name a few. Imperial Fist's came after the "death" of the Emprah

There was a segment in one of the Eisenhorn books, Xenos, when the inquisitor encountered a SM Librarian.

>"Shaven-headed, a giant of a man even without his
armour, Brytnoth was nevertheless cordial and attentive, addressing me with respect and listening with genuine interest to my replies.
I tried to do verbal justice to my memories of the experience, and additionally related the theories that Malahite had expounded during
that fateful seance.
Eschewing the luxury of a servitor scribe or clerk, Brytnoth made his own notes as he listened. I found myself engrossed watching the
warrior's paw working the dwarfed stylus almost delicately across the note-slate.
We sat in my apartments for the sessions, which often lasted hours. Bequin brought in regular trays of hot mead or leaf infusions, and
Brytnoth actually extended his little finger as he lifted the porcelain cups by the handle. He was to me the embodiment of war in
peacetime, a vast power bound into genteel behaviour, striving to prevent his awesome strength from breaking loose. He would lift the
cup, small finger extended, consult his notes and ask another question before sipping.
The fact that small finger was the size and shape of an Arbites' truncheon was beside the point."

That's heresy, Anon. Report to your Commissar for the Emperor's Justice immediately.

>>27023011
Technically no, but they never do. For some chapters, at least, all the parts are working. Space Wolves are the big one, but in some older books the Salamanders were too.

Curious that those two chapters seem to be the most in touch with the average Imperial citizen.

>>27022668
His name is Torin and he served with distinction among the Wolfblade. Most of his fellow Space Wolves thought him somewhere between a touch queer and a total girlyman.

Would a band of marines going renegade cause they think it is unworthy for the emperor to sit immobile on his throne be plausible at all? They go rogue or even turn to chaos in order to put him out of his misery so that he can be reborn / ascend in to godhood / whatever

>>27021756

Sounds very Alpha Legion.
But marines turning renegade because they think the Emperor is unworthy/a dick is certainly plausible, I'd say roll with it.

>>27021724
I've thought about it - there really should be a Chaos God of boredom. It's a big part of most people's lives, as far as I can tell. For every man giving in to bloodthirsty rage, there are thousands sitting around, wondering when something interesting will happen.

>>27025290
Yeah Alpha Legion would be a good choice but "unfortunately" I have already converted some 2000p of renegade space wolves and is now trying to figure out a reason for them to go renegade.

Wouldn't a chapter who value strength and battle prowess find it kinda disheartening to see their great leader comatose without any hope of recovering? I know they have no love for the Lords of Terra so turning against them wouldn't be much of a surprise
