I love how 40K’s lore has these somber and grand narratives contained within its universe, while simultaneously having planets named “Hamberger Worl” that are canon too.
Let’s be honest: humans would totally name some planets funny names. (Look at some of our town names. Also, our home planet’s name means “the ground.” Despite being mostly covered with water. I’ll bet someone in 40k found a desert world and named it something like “Oceania.”)
"This, is funny to me" -Rogal Dorn
I never could find someone to explain fulgrims origins and this is like smooth caramel mixed over cold steel, sharp. Powerful. And so sweet to my ears
Yes it's almost too smooth, I can FEEL THE PERFECTION CARESS ME, whispering sweet promises into my ear.
😈
@@JeanLucCaptain face the bolter line heretic
Fulgrim is one of my favorite loyalist Primarchs, especially the remorseful cloned version of him Bile had raised aboard his ship. I’d love to see a novel of him freed and found by Guilliman at some point.
It would no doubt piss off a few people cause it might just be used as an example how it might be the signs 40k is not being grimdark anymore
@@donkface8509 Hows this for grim dark have clone fulgrim return and since guilliman is desperate for brotherhood as he admitted this to mortarion, the two primarchs become close and form a strong bond only for gulliman to die at the hands of the daemon fulgrim and then a returned lion el johnson who doesnt care if clone fulgrim is loyal he only sees a traitor and kills him outright lol.
@@donkface8509 ah, I remember that story! That fulgrim if I recall correctly is not so much a loyalist, as the clone has not had a chance to be tempted and corrupted by chaos. That’s why Fabius Bile had him frozen by the Necron lord, because part of him didn’t want fulgrim to go down that dark path again.
Fulgrim is NOT a loyalist lol
@@imperialguardsmen7205 that's actually a fucking awesome idea
Reading about Fulgrim punching an Avatar of Khaine to death while being overcome by pleasure and screaming Slaneesh is the type of thing you never forget... No matter how many books you read
Em que parte do vídeo isso é dito? Eu quero ver. Se você sabe a hora exata, me mostra por favor.
YT seems to really have a knack for finding me these fresh new, extremely high quality longform 40k lore channels that are just starting out. Looks so promising, I think you know exactly which list of creators you are making your way onto. Subbed w/ notifications!
FOR THE ALGORITHM.
Appreciate it brother.
Can't believe the channel has hit 500 subscribers, after hearing your own voice for hours on end your cant tell if it sound good or not so it's been awesome to see that people actually like it. The first video I created was A Fulgrim video but I felt that I could only really do it justice now. There's going to be more coming and even different types of videos exploring some of the aspects around 40k and it's influences, but the character videos are continuing as usual. Once again thank you so much and any characters/factions you want me to explore just comment below. Shout out to Neil, Ronnie, Jack the Skipper, BK Lanyon, An Angry Necron and many more. Always see you commenting and supporting, Thank you.
Suggestion: Can you do Vulcan next please?
@@enragedsage8376 I think you have read my mind.
New sub from me today, excellent telling of my favourite Primarch and Legions story. Look forward to watching your other videos 👊
Dude you're gonna blow up real fast. Phenomenal work!
Almost at 3k keep going buddy!!! Once Major Kill makes a joke about you you will know you made it to true greatness ;)
Fulgrims one of my favorite Chaos Primarchs and Its always nice to see the hedonistic bastard get more quality content.
Arguably the most humane and human of all the Primarchs, even more than Vulkan and Guilliman.
He was never meant to fall, and wouldn't have if he'd either ended up on Chigoris, or had known about chaos.
I really hope the perfect Clone returns one day to redeem his legacy and strike down his corrupted mirror. It would be such a perfect embodiment of his phoenix motif, and he, Guilliman and maybe Legion of The Damned Ferrus beating Daemon Prince Fulgrim, maybe even truly killing him with the Emperor's Sword, would be truly epic.
Humane? Why humane? Tell me your opinion, brother?
Hell yeah man i gotta say Vulkan still little nicer and humane but i like your take
A beautifully written account of the tragedy that was the sometime Phoenix, now Chosen of Slaanesh.
You are doing a great job with these, can't wait for the next one
Thank you
I hope with all my heart we see him return.
Yes that ending... I WANT TO SEE THE PHEONIX RISE FROM THE ASHES, BURNING WITH GLORY!
isn't he a snek demon boi with four arms right now? he never went away, just... changed?
@@stingray2223 Ya see, Fabius Bile made a perfect clone of pre-demon him with all his memories. He’s currently trapped in Trazyn’s museum.
@@YOOT_JJ ohh, i see. Fulgrim on Fulgrim fight! Both sides are allowed to chant "Ful-grim!"
My favorite Primarch, this is a treat to listen to
I see you are a man of culture as well.
ive seen stories of 40k like 10 times from different youtubers but 40 lore is so much fun even if you know whats gonna happen... i think its because of the way you tell the stories! good work in spreading the emperors grace!
Oh man you are sooooo Good! Your calm but when necessary strong voice gives me goosebumps,even moving me to tears when it gets emotional,especially with the traitors as I feel like they have the most humane and sad story’s! Keep doing what you do! Ah I forgot: „all hail to slaanesh“
My brother, my phoenix, my hope. Wing your way through the darkness and defy fortune's spite. Revive from the ashes and rise.
Just found you thanks to the algorithm. Dude, I'd pay you to do more of these. Keep it up!!!!!
you put so much effort on this , I really appreciate it that, thank you.
Probably the best 40k lore vid I’ve watched. Really like the format and how you broke it down!
Recently came upon your channel, amazing atmosphere and storytelling! Please keep making these!
Absolutely love your style. One of my new favourite lore channels and always look forward to your videos. Keep up the excellent work!
This is the only channel so far I’ve found that is genuinely entertaining and pleasant to listen how some one is telling stories from the Warhammer 40K Lore
I can see this becoming my fav 40k channel, up there with Baldermort, great work!
These are some fantastically put together videos.
Thank you.
@@TheAmberKing Your very welcome, I thoroughly enjoyed listening.
Was here for the first episode, and watching this now, it's awesome to see this channel grow. 👏
I have been away for a while but at least now I get to binge some videos from you!
Somebody get this man on Adeptus Podcastus
Heard your tone of voice and focus on calm, collected and clear articulation, and instantly subscribed. Thanks for the effort!
Edit after finishing the video: Damn that was really good! Such a sad story though. Very well put together lore video.
Amazing content, so glad I found this channel. Keep up the good work!
Black library really needs to write a Fulgrim Chemos story. It would be so great to see what life was like for him as a child.
Just found your channel- I’m beyond impressed. Excellent stuff, and I subscribed within the first two minutes. That may be a new record for me. Keep up the fantastic work- your channel is going to be keeping company with the Titans of lore.
Your sir with a single video remind me of why I fell in love with Warhammer 40k lore in the first place. Thank you for this
You really did an awesome job
This was wonderfully done. I will be watching more of your vids.
Incredible video. Perfection to listen to on a long drive. You have a new subscriber.
Subscribed. I am happy to find more quality lore and history. Good job.
You are doing such an amazing job my guys keep up the great work.
Thank you so much.
WOO HOO! New video, once again loved it, keep going sir👍
cant believe this channel only has 60k subscribers , deserves more
Top quality content man, you've got an awesome voice for narration! keep it up
You deserve way more subscribers. Great content and storytelling!!!
I just found this channel today and I'm loving it
Awesome video! Thank you.
Great video and an awesome channel. Just started getting into Warhammer so I am trying to learn as much as I can to get caught with characters, factions, and lore. You, Arch, and other youtubers have made it easier to do so. Thanks and keep up the great work.
These are coming on in leaps and bounds, I've just found your channel, and the only complaint I had about the slow speed of the narration in earlier videos is just about fixed by the time of this video.
Really well put together, I'll recommend this channel to anyone I know that's into 40k.
Appreciate it brother!
Hoping for an extended version one day. :D great stuff!
After Konrad Curze steals the Laer Blade from Fulgrim (which he had prudently thought to secure), in the massacre of Istvaan V Fulgrim (bitterly regretting not having destroyed the weapon immediately feeling guilty for the fall of his brother) sacrifices himself to save Ferrus Manus allowing him to carry the survivors to safety, and later Saul Tarvitz renames the Emperor's Children as the Sons of Fulgrim (to symbolically rise forever from the ash of their Primarch the Phoenix).
This was smeggin phenomenal!! I'm new to 40k and am making a EC army currently to folllw my drukhari, wjtn and almksf full hedonite army in sigmar. I love fulgrim and his lore and everything slaanesh so this was so very awesome to watch. You won my subscription... NOW... On to watch the alpha legion nerd candy for Omegon!
God damn what a find. Your narrative style is brilliant and you genuinely have the voice for this kind of work.
I've subbed and I'm very excited to see what you produce in the future - thanks for all the hard work!
Awesome work, brother.
When I heard the intro of how fulgrim was headed for Jagatai's planet I couldn't help but think of the beginning a mega mind when he was about to land in a rich home but instead gets knocked into a prison 😁
The exit music was great. The whole thing is great.
I just finished the book, Fulgrim, and his story and that of the EC is so much more interesting and human than I thought it could be. I with there was more.
Side note, I thought that Fulgrim was trapped in the corner of his own mad, damned to watch the demon parade as him through his own eyes.
Fulgrim is an excellent book. And you’re correct, he was forced to essentially be a hostage in his own body.
Fulgrim didn’t kill Ferrus willingly, the Daemon which possessed him essentially forced him to do it.
After his guilt completely consumes him, it explains how after Ferrus dies he looks onto the battlefield and views his now depraved sons as disgusting and irredeemable beings. In order to “escape” this reality and his grief he desperately surrendered himself to the Daemon which promised him relief from this pain.
It’s also very interesting how Horus essentially knows something funny is up when “Fulgrim” speaks with him privately. The Daemon revealing itself to Horus, Horus’ disgusted reaction and him threatening to kill the Daemon to save his brother is super fun to read about. It offers a better picture as to understanding why Horus was so well loved among the Primarchs.
@@M.S.G.95 Horus loved his brothers... Even Angrom. But at the End of the Heresy he only cared for himself... It's a shame I do believe that Space Joe Rogan deserves better...
I am speechless. Last year around this time is when I got into WH. And I must admit, no one has yet scratched that part of my mind that has very specific wh lore needs as you did. Your voice and presentation is great, poetic, calm, imaginative and firm. Subscribed.
Your videos are amazing and tell a complete vision of thr tragedy of fulgrim.
Love your videos man keep it up
Excellent video again mate and I'm glad your channel is picking up. I've come to appreciate you taking your time with the videos because your stuff is honestly quality over quantity. You can tell you put effort into the writing and it's not just some wiki recitation, unlike some other youtubers.
I didn't know much about Fulgrim until your first video but this taught me so much more. You come out thinking this is such a tragic character, akin to Magnus. Imagine if he wasn't corrupted, would he allow the imperium to be this brutal, backward and oppressive entity it is today. Would love to see what happens with clone fulgrim. Any way, keep up the great work mate.
I hope to see you soon at 100000 subs.
I truly enjoy your content
Mate I check out all the 40k lore channels and you're right up there with the best. You should have 100k views! Keep it up and you'll climb fast!
Impressive. Keep up the excellent work
"Any hole is a goal." -Fulgrim
That is all you need to know to understand Fulgrim, saved you 50 min, you're welcome.
Dam, this made me spit out my water.
after all, Horus did meet him with a PROPOSITION.
"The human rectum's ability to accommodate foreign objects is _truly astounding_ ."
-Fulgrim, probably
I get that.
@@Morec0 that was Fulgrim BEFORE Slaanesh, "the human urethra can stretch to incredible limits" is what he'd say now. That boy moved on from assplay literal millennia ago lnao
great video, really impressive.
Great content, thank you!
Loved this. I just started a renegade/ loyal Emporoer's Children lead by Clone Fulgrim. An alternative history for sure but it's been a fun project so far.
I've always considered Fulgrim as a peacock (a beautiful idiot). This video gave me some forced perspective as to his fall, and what his worth Could have been for mankind.
"What would you do to be free of pain?"
Awesome line and a provocative question.
I'm a former Airborne trooper and I'm almost 50 sooo.... I know all about pain, and the terrible effect pain has over time on the psyche.
WHAT would I give up to be pain free? Hmmmmm
I would absolutely love a loyalist Fulgrim v Demonic Fulgrim
Fulgrim isn't a Primarch I usually think about, but today I just wanted to know more about him - and immediately found you!
Awesome, and you really held my attention on Fulgrim.
This video is perfection !
A great character video would be on some potential commissars or guardsmen and even some inquisitors to see how working for the inquisition would be like
I’m starting to research Gaunt’s Ghosts so a commissar video is works though There’s a lot of material to familiarise myself with. Are they any particular inquisitors you would like to see?
@@TheAmberKing perhaps Eisenhorn since he's the only one I know by name and even then its not much, but really any inquisitor would do especially if they didn't fully agree with what they're doing and actually want to help the imperium's citizens
i hope to see more vids like this i really enjoyed it
HOLY MARY MOTHER OF THE EMPEROR...
Not ☝🏻 but ✌🏻 40k lore content creators that have comparable voices and style of narration..... I love everything about yours and ONLY WAR content. Doing
Collaborations together would be so amazing. My mind drifts into excited imaginations of what could be possible. I have no doubt that you and (Only War) are going to be among the best tellers of 40K War lore.
Thank you for this your narration is really awesome 🔥👍
Emperor protects
Holy fuck this is so good. GW better hire you. I have always loved your channel. This is my favorite vid so far!!
I really like your intro music and whole blade runner / judge dredd vibe. The rest of the video is great too but I thought someone has to make sure they mention it
Real good shit my dude
Really like a nod towards the Sons of the Phoenix there at the end.
This . . . Was . . . Brilliant to listen to. Subscribed 👍👍👍 1.34k (ish) subscriber.
I'm about 8 minutes in when writing this, wanted to type something up before I forget to do so. xD
This is great, been looking for some more easily digestible W40K content on specific characters or events within the universe without having to read the Wiki pages. I don't want to read the Wiki because before I know it I've got 25 tabs open and I never finish reading any of 'em.
Thank you very much. I too often just got lost in wiki pages, sometimes you just fall down the rabbit hole. The biggest help I can think of is topic ideas as I’m trying to gauge which characters people specifically want to see.
New sub! Amazing 40k content as good as arch or better almost baldermort/ luetin level
Hey mate love your intro music
It reminds me of the old beatamax videos when you had to take a run and fly kick the play buttons to play the video and the early music is what’s in your intro.
Anyway memories eh!
😂😂😛
theres so many warhammer 40k characters and legions i like. some more than others and the emperors children are one of my favourites. i love slaanesh
Damn good job 👏 👍
great way of ending the video by showing a successor chapter of the "imperial fists" named SONS OF THE PHOENIX that are DEFENITELY not derived from Fulgrim's own genes.
and also i'm subscribing i'm soo happy to have found this channel
Cheers man. It’s probably gonna be a while until a loyalist Fulgrim return, but it’s gonna be a top 3 warhammer moment when it does happen.
This is superb 💜🔥❤️👏
Wonderful videos
Thank you very much!
@@TheAmberKing ever think of making a Discord for the channel?
The use of synth wave the badass thumbnails and the deliciously long length of these videos,and that voice 😤👌 M8 stay strong keep uploading your content is peak maybe cut the time of your video by 10 - 15 minutes to make it easier for you other than that your work is PERFECT it’s only a matter of time before your growth will explode like an Ork Waagh!!!!!
Perfection.
Likes for the algorithm god, comments for the engagement throne!
It was said that when hearing Fulgrim's powerful speech to his legion, the Emperor wept. I liked that.
I hope you do one for Rus and the lion too. I have yet to find a good in depth video that covers either of those two primarchs
MORE!!
Nice very nice
Man the part where he kills Ferrus Manus nearly brought me to tears.
42:30 YOU CAN NEVER BE FORGIVEN FOR THE THINGS YOU HAVE DONE. SO IT FALLS TO MY HANDS TO END THE PRODIGAL SON.
The thing I really dislike about Fulgrim’s story is his mortal side just going “ah well, gone too far now, have to embrace it, no way back”
Your videos are amazing and tell a
Not me getting teary eyed at the end for fulgrim's clone
32:21 I guess he learned about Reforged.
Excellent video. You should do Khan next.
I think fulgrim is a compelling and interesting (loyalist) primarch because hrs the most human of any of them. We understand his inner struggles of trying to be humble but also prove himself all at the same time. We can better empathize with him because his fall to chaos is so familiar to our own failures. We as humans will still struggle but the realiry is most of us are perfectly fine as we are, just like fulgrim, but all it took was a little push to shatter our inner anxiety and insecurities to make us come crashing down. We all so petty things, have certain ticks that annoy us, and have deep friendships all the same, but these can collide causing us to doubt ourselves and retreat in shame. Fulgrims greatest flaw is he was the most emotional and human among primarch demigods.
I never loved how the demon sword was drawn. That hard angle just feels off to me for a serpentine feeling blade.
