Rylanor was one of the greatest characters in the entirety of Warhammer 40k, so lets give the legend the respect he deserves.

I was thinking about making a Rylanor Proxy for Major Minis but you can literally buy the same thing off Forgeworld
So we will have to settle for the Demon Lord Empire Ender : www.majorminis.com.au/products/demon-lord-empire-ender
Not mad about it tbh
Hey Majorkill, could you make a Carcharodon great white? to add to my street sharks... I mean space sharks
"You are specks of dust beneath our fingernails. Your very breath is a gift from Olympus. You have insulted powers beyond your comprehension"
NGL I think if you made a Rylanor proxy model then Forgeworld would have to stop selling EC Dreads. Nobody wants to pay so much for a crappy resin model.
Same reasoning for if you ever make a Trazyn.
Yeah but a loyal emperors purple boy standard bearer proxy would be fine
Hello Majorkill,
Would you please make some lore videos on the Imperial Truth, the Imperial Creed, the Ecclesiarchy, and the High Lords of Terra? Pretty please? Thank you.
'Is this it?' he said. 'You sought to draw me here to kill me?'
Rylanor triggered his assault cannon, but - fast as quicksilver - Fulgrim caught it and crushed it before it could fire.
'No, I don't think so,' said the primarch, effortlessly ripping the arm from the Dreadnought's body. Sparks flew from the ruptured limb and Fulgrim gave the weapon a dismissive glance before tossing it aside.
'You betrayed us,' bellowed Rylanor. 'Your sons! You led us here to die. There is no forgiveness for that. None! You must die by my hand! The Emperor's justice will fall upon you. Not even Fulgrim the Illuminator can escape the Life Eater.'
'You wish me dead?' he said, scathing pity dripping from every syllable. 'Why? Because you think I betrayed you? The Legion? Oh, Rylanor, your thoughts are so narrow. If you could only see us now, how beautiful we have become. We shine so brightly, each of us a brilliant sun.'
Fulgrim reached down, sliding his bare hand inside a rent torn in the Dreadnought's armour. He smiled, closing his eyes and letting his tongue slip across his lips as he pushed deeper inside.
'Ah, there you are!' said Fulgrim, as Rylanor's vox-caster grated in fury. 'Wet and wriggling. I can feel your panic. It's delicious!'
Rylanor's power fist swung around, bathed in fire. It struck Fulgrim on the shoulder, but Akhtar's psychic force was not simply confined to the Life Eater's detonation. Fulgrim laughed off the sluggish attack and one of his lower arms drew a glittering sword of alien origin. The blade a sliced in a cruelly precise arc, cutting through the fibre-bundle motivators and servos.
Rylanor's arm fell limp at his side.
Vistario watched the viral fire spread over the Dreadnought's carapace, slipping inside his buckled plates of armour. Rylanor did not care whether he lived or died, only that Fulgrim went with him.
'Do. Not. Do. This!' barked the Dreadnought.
'Why not? I am your master - I can do whatever I like. I can crush you or I can raise you up. Return to the Legion. Accept the gifts of the Dark Prince, and you will walk at my side, clad once again in flesh. You can be anything, old friend! I will sculpt you into something beautiful - a god to these mortals!'
'Never! All we have left between us is that we will die together!' roared the Dreadnought, the upper portion of his carapace burning with blue flames. 'I am Rylanor of the Emperor's Children, Ancient of Rites, Venerable of the Palatine Host, and proud servant of the Emperor of Mankind, Beloved by all! I reject you now and always!'
Fulgrim laughed and said, 'I'm sorry, did it sound like I was offering you a choice?'
The primarch wrenched his hand from Rylanor's sarcophagus, dragging a sopping mass of fluid and matter with him. Glutinous ropes dripped from his fingers; he was like a midwife holding a mewling newborn. Ruptured cables spilled amniotic fluid so stagnant it must surely have been poisoning Rylanor with every passing second.
'I will remake you, brother,' said Fulgrim. 'You will be my crowning achievement.'
Though his body was little more than rags of wet meat, Vistario sensed Rylanor's horror at the last violation. An inescapable destiny where he would become what he hated most.
+What do we do?+
The question was Murshid's and the connection between the Thousand Sons was so strong that Athanaean's perception for emotion spread to all three of them.
Vistario felt Fulgrim's infinite malice, his cruel enjoyment of Rylanor's anguish and the helplessness of the Thousand Sons. The primarch of the Emperor's Children revelled in his overwhelming pride, a trait Magnus had more than once told Vistario had been present long before his fall.
But more than anything, stronger even than Fulgrim's spite, Vistario felt Rylanor's pride and honour, the unbending core of greatness that had set him against his brothers and had seen him descend into obsessive madness beneath the surface of a dead world.
Vistario took the measure of Fulgrim, seeing nothing worthy in him.
His warriors felt the moment his decision was made.
+Primarch Fulgrim!+ sent Vistario. +Rylanor deserves better than you.+
The primarch looked up, his once bright eyes now black and filled with the darkest poison.
+He deserves better than all of us.+
He raised his bolter and fired a mass-reactive into the back of Akhtar's skull. The Raptora's head exploded and with his death, the psychic force holding back the warhead's detonation ended.
Vistario saw fire.
And once more, all life burned.
To make the most scheming and ruthless of Fallen Astartes see the light of the Emperor again...
Thank You....THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS AWESOME MOMENT!
From what book is this from?
@@Robertoxy Sons of the Emperor
@@silversurfer8818 Thank you very much!!
If there ever was a Astartes deserving to be called a companion of the emperor it would be Rylanor
Jealous custodes noises*
@@michellelee8983😂😂😂😂😂😂
I've always hoped that Rylanor's soul was so strong and pure that it has survived the Warp and is waiting to kneel at the foot of the Emperor waiting for Him to call upon the warrior once more.
"Only in death does duty end."
But only if one allows it.
@@michellelee8983😒I believe he meant "champion" oh golden fap on Thursday companions of Big E.😏
Hope he returns, should the Legion of the Damned be creations of the Emperor
I hope the next time Fulgrim see's a contemptor dreadnought in the lore, he has a real full blown panic attack.
Or completely and utterly falls into fear and flashbacks. Trying to get as many starsystems away from that thing as possible
Lol o love that image of a 1st gen chapter being in its last legs so they send out the contemptor dreadnought, but as it emerges for one last show down against a primark… they just see Fulgrim screaming and panicking lol.
Lol, as battle rages around him, Fulgrim hides away in the back lines hyperventilating into a brown paper bag.
Like Ussop vs Perona from one piece. Lmao
@@serrashadetail2007 thank you for this wonderful mental image
Rylanor gave the middle finger to his own Primarch, got the honor of becoming a Dreadnought, and helped a Thousand Sons Sorcerer redeem himself. Dude is an absolute gigachad and we all love him for that!
Wouldn't say 'honor'for becoming a dreadnought
Yeaahhhh becoming one ain't an honour mate. Its a horror show.
Also helped prove that MAGNUS DID NOTHING WRONG (at least in this case).
It's a Honor actually becoming a Dreadnought It's being a Chaos Dreadnought that is a horror
@@berilsevvalbekret772 It depends, Contemptor dreadnoughts weren't fun to be in from what I hear but in general dreadnoughts, while not great, weren't a nightmare to be in, and it depends on the legion how much of an honor it's seen as.
If GW ever brings Clonegrim back to the setting, I think it would be cool to have a flashback that ties in to this story. Revealing that after the Virus bomb was released a piece of Fulgrim’s soul fractured and escaped into the warp. This soul shard would traverse the warp until it eventually inhabits the Fulgrim clone made by Fabius Bile. I think this would really add to the greatness of Rylanor’s last stand. Showing that his act of defiance not only redeemed a traitor astartes, but also saved the soul of his fallen primarch.
That's brilliant and simply awesome
Rylanor wasn't even injured to get put in the dred chassis, he just struggled to fight in power armour with such massive balls.
petition to make this canon
Rylanor deserves to be in the Legion of the Damned. That would be one hell of a comeback!
Litterally, "I'm back bitch"
It is heavily implied that he is.
It would Rob his death of its impact if they did. He made the ultimate sacrifice to kill his monster of a Primarch. Bringing him back as Legion of the Damned would lessen the gravitas of his death.
@@kailuun
Bah...gravitas. Who cares about gravitas. Imagine an un killable loyalist weapon of war, clad in seething flames. Basically a greater demon of the Emperor himself.
Would be pretty damn useful than whatever gravitas his death brought.
Rylanor is also the only Emperor's Children I know, who has a real friendship with an Iron Hand (Vermana Cybus).
I hope that Clonegrim remembers Rylanor and does so with pride.
Yeah
Now i want a Legion of the Damned Rylanor
Look up the Legio Damnatorum. It's a LotD diorama, and there's a conspicuous purple contemptor with an assault cannon and a power claw as part of it.
me omw to give Rylanor some genesons
In the lore it is stated that after this event a LotD company appeared and in it was a contemptor with an assault cannon and power claw. It was in LotD colors of course but Dreadnaught LotD is VERY RARE.
Considering the fact that the Thousands Sons fall into Chaos due to no fault of their own and were still loyal to the Emperor until they get betrayed (from their view point) by the Space Wolves, it does make sense for them to be influenced by Rylanor's loyalty and dedication to the Emperor, more so when contrasted with what Fulgrim had become. If anything, the TTS might actually have a point in the possibility of the redemption of Magnus and with it, also of his legion.
@13gan Amen!
Imagine if Rylanor was found early in the aftermath of Istvaan V post-Horus Heresy and either he joins the Black Shields.
Or even found his own Space Marine Chapter that is totally not a successor chapter from the Imperial Fists like the Sons of Phoenix.
Idk, I feel like it would take away one of the most glorious moments in the entire setting if such a thing occurred.
@@WelcomeToDERPLANDyeah lets revive him instead and have him join the legion of the damned
@@ΘΑΝΟΣΠΑΠΑΣΩΤΗΡΑΚΟΠΟΥΛΟΣhell yeah
Funny enough there was a similar space marine dreadnought who was found in the aftermath of I5.
His fate is… decidedly less glorious than Rylanors, but he kept a pretty major forge world loyal, convinced a force of Iron Warriors to become loyal again (admittedly the Alpha Legion screwing them made it a lot easier), and uhm… got really into cults.
I feel the Legion of the Damned route is more likely for GW to take, seeing as Rylanor wasn’t on Istvaan V
That thousands sons marine is a n underrated hero. Changed his mind for a true warrior.
Wow, this not only was a cool intro to this character, but it just increased my respect for the Thousand Suns.
Gaaawd Emperor DAMN does that Rylanor art go HARD, great job alex & ty Majorkill for commissioning it!
Dude really went against his own primarch to fight for the emperor. Waited for a millenia, just to go with a bang, scarring his former primarch forever. 🔥👊🏽
The best bits of wh40k stories are the small sparks of humanity in some of them. Not enough to take away from grimdark theme but still able to make a big impact in the story.
It'd be amazing if they made an animation of this scene
In the words of stringstorm: I AM ONE OF THE EMPEROR'S CHILDREN I AM RYLANOR AND I AM THE ANCIENT OF RITES SO I REJECT YOU FOR NOW AND FOR ALWAYS TO STRIKE YOU DOWN I HAVE WAITED FOR A MILLION NIGHTS
You basically just said "in the words of a child groomer" lmao
@@orbitalbutt6757 ? Stringstorm is a band that made some warhammer singd... one of them is about rylanor
@@orbitalbutt6757separate the art from the artist
When Fulgi comes back, god, have him reference or remember Rylanor at least once - I want that man haunting Fulgrim's mind until the end of his life
Imagine Fulgrim comes back, and in the first battle he has with the imperium a single legionary of the damned show up. And it’s a dreadnought.
Imagine fucking Rylanor hating the shit out of Fulgrim so goddamn hard that he simply would not allow death to stop him from humbling Fulgrim.
The song that came out of Rylanor saying "FUCK YOU" to his father is amazing
Rylanor is why I love Emperor's Children... the loyalist ones not the play with my bum ones
Rylanor is a great character. Imagine him becoming part of the "Legion of the Damned", and giving the middle finger AGAIN to Fulgrim when he returns to realspace lol.
Brooooooo that really is one of the best 40k moments to be so honorable, worthy, loyal to turn not exactly a demonic traitor but still a traitor to do an honorable thing in the name of brotherhood crazy
GOD DAMN your artist Alex is doing good work I love all of his art that he has done for your thumbnails.
great vid. its awlay cool t learn more about an already badass character. hearing what he was like before he was stuck in the dreadnouht and after only makes him more cool
also new min looks great
Holy shit Majorkill
This dude is taking on a monopoly and winning. He knows there is room for business, give it 5-10 more years an everyone in the hobby is gonna know MajorMinis.
Keep that cash flow Major, you're a cheeky badass, a real leader in the fandom.
Majorkill: "everyone else is running out of content"
Also Majorkill: "go-go Gadget: another Rylanor video!"
I didn't get the vibe that the Thousand Sons regretted any of their actions. It seemed liked they identified with Rylanor because they remembered feeling betrayed by the Imperium.
I wonder when the EC and Fulgrim inevitably get their own stand alone Codex will he get a mention.
Also day 253? of requesting a Commissar Yarrick Major Mini pls and god I'd love to see that new mini with Phyrexian colors after seeing someone did that for Tyranids.
Shout out to Alex for his dope ass thumbnail art
They say that when someone talks about the Legend of Rylanor the listener proceed to listen to Stringstorm Rylanor Last Stand.
Rylanor video along with badass art legit getting shivers
Having 2 majorkill videos about Rylanor certify him as a legend. Or someone major simp for hard.
I belive with the damage to fulgrims pride it caused a shard of his soul to split off, a shard that would later inhabit a perfect clone.
Majorkill that mini is fucking beautiful jesus christ
majorkill rocking the lion hair
Drach'nyen is the psychic echo of the first murder and was able to actually fight the emperor in single combat and win now a Daemon sword that was the emperors before he fought Drach'nyen
Rylanor basically said “Fuck you dad, grandpa’s better!” In THE most BADASS way possible
When I googled "Show the middle finger", it showed Rylanor
Am I the only one who still has the Rylanors Last Stand song on my Spotify playlist and am I the only one that will get caught at a red light actually singing it at top volume with my windows up in the air conditioning on and people staring at me like I'm insane?😂😂😂😂😂😂
7:41 Rylanor Understands The Insanity of Sub Assembly Models
as if we needed a reason to listen to rylanor's last stand again.
How funny would it be if at the moment the bomb detonated Trazen showed up and went OH, Rylanor, I could uuse one of those and pocketed him.
Loving the new model, for some reason
Dantioch-level loyalty 😂
For a daemon of slaanesh Pride is very important so having it forever damaged is a major thing
Major, can you give us a video on the Emperor's flagship? I haven't been able to find anything on it on either, WarHammer 40K Fan Wiki or WH40K Lexicanum. I know that many of the Primarchs had Gloriana Class Battleships for their flagships.
Rylanor is what the Emperor's Children could and should have been, a true son of the Emperor
Love the Diablo theme. That Diablo vs Imperius cutscene inspired me to get an imperius tattoo
The new mimi looks sick can't wait to paint it. Rylanor models would be awesome too!
He's technically just a regular contemptor with a specific loadout. He doesn't have unique markings, so you wouldn't even need to get the EC contemptor body. You could easily make him with the new plastic kit.
What the actual fuck. That thumbnail is better than offical art from GW
Wait trazyn has perfect fulgrim clone and their geneseed?
MK looks like hes about to fight Rocky
LET'S GO! LET'S DO IT!
Amidst the desolate soil
We heard the repeating cries of a fragment of metal
So, true to Magnus' orders
I take my company's reins onto the surface, we settle…
So sad to see Majrokill succumb to stress and develop greying hair early, I hope he gets better soon
I genuinely thought he had dyed his hair blonde
@@FarbodNooshazar-fj4ii He did, OP was making a joke.
i always thought that Rylanor would made a great addition in the legion of the dammed
Look up the Legio Damnatorum diorama. There's totally not a contemptor with a power claw and assault cannon in the back.
@@sirbaconbuster if thats the case then it means that Rylanor can still throw hand at Fulgrim.
Video 24 of asking ‘What if Nykona Sharrowkyn killled Fulgrim’
Man is the most GIGA of all the chad’s in a galaxy full of GIGACHADS 😂😂😂😂 what a guy 🔥🔥
Rylanor might be a day 1 astartes, but you are also a dya 1 elllen degeneres
Absolutely awesome lore. I hadn't heard this one before.
Mad respect for rylanor and what if he Survived and was Rescued by a dark age of technology Piece of equipment and before his Supposed that he saw a vision of the emperor and was Is praised by him
Ain't there song about him
Although Im a Chaos fan I agree Rylanor is a badass just like Dantioch has the best bromance with Polux😝 also if you make some chaos marines minis similar in style to Alpha Legion I will be not just curiouse but interested😝
Horus heresy era fulgrim was a great character.
Fitting theme now majorkill have gone full fulgrim.
He is him
The goat
Even the most chad of chads
He is Rylanor
Majorkill plz do a history video of garviel loken
Fulgrim had a haircut
I want to believe that in death, Rylanor joined the ranks of the legion of the damned becoming its chapter master,
While murshid, akhtar and vistario became the undead legion's librarians, them being the first instances of Chaos space marines redeeming themselves and becoming loyalists again albeit through death. And these three hve become something of liches, having psychic immense psychic powers compared to when they were in the service of Tzeentch.
And they are the ones who speak in behalf of the legion, often warning the living "don't fight alongside us, or else he'll pull you in" and they all point to centurius, the commander of the undead space marines
I stand with MajorKen
Please do a video on the Dark City series. That novel series is one hell of a f'ed up ride.
Still waiting for some “space steam punk robots” *ahem* admech
Do a vid about Iskandar Khayon.
Rylanor is awesome.
Brother kill, I've come to suggest a video idea: why not speculate on what each primarchs ""warp form" is? Like, corax is a shadow person, what could the others be? 🤔
Rylanor has got to be my favourite LGBT+ allegory in all of media. Fucking legend
Best dreadnought in the lore he was and is a supreme giga Chad and has his own song by stringstorm
Amidst the desolate soil
We heard the repeating cries of a fragment of metal
So, true to Magnus' orders

This better be in the Henry Cavil Amazon series. Would be an Epic moment.
Hey Majorkill, we know of the greater demons for the four chaos gods, but what about those demons of Chaos Undivided? Can we get a video about them?
Currently reading Galaxy in Flames, and Ancient of Rites just made his first appearance
@majorkill When are the Cyber Dynasty models shipping?
Since I am painting Doomrider while listening to this video, how about a video about him?
Always strive to be a Rylanor in a world full of Fulgrims
Attempt #4 of getting MajorKill to make a what-if on Malcador returning?
Still waiting for my shark daddy and xeno to get shipped. Is the major-mini Spartan marine a good stand-in for Asterion Moloc or is a off-brand on the way?
Major Ken ❤!!
I read Rylanor's story while high a few months ago, it was absolutely incredible. The mystery, the build up, the conflict between perfection of the body and perfection of the soul, what the EC are vs what they should've been. Absolute peak sci-fi writing.
I love you ken
I’ve seen a bleached blonde Aussie, I’ve seen everything

Earth born space Marines are something special that Earth born blood are more valuable more stronger more warrior like
That's earth is homeworld of Humans
awesome ! :D
As dope as Rylanor was, I take this as a sign of developing Emperor's Children/Slaaneshi heresy following the dyed hair.
