Hey, you're starting to get sponsors now! Good for you! (unless you have already been getting sponsors and I just haven't noticed, in which case im just a dumb goober)
@Tigran-Abazyan The 8th legion made a part of their palace in Tsagualsa out of living flesh. At best the night lords would say, didn't know the trenchers had it in them. Then laugh or ask for some human skin capes.
@InquisitorXarius I don't see how the Skaven broodmothers would be worse than this? The harrowing part comes from the presumably sentient skaven women being drugged/lobotomized in early life, and then used as essentially breeding cows and/or war monsters for the rest of their existance. As disgusting as it is though, it is not too far off from how reproduction works for most mammals with the female usually having no say in the interaction and getting the short end of the evolutionary sticks. However THIS is looking at kidnapped, fully aware human women getting another human shoved in them and birthed back out again through a horrendous chaos ritual...
Skaven Broodmothers are in my opinion more horrid than the Daemonculaba. For reference the sheer quantity of extreme exstacy and pain a Skaven Broodmother produces is not something even Slaanesh will not touch. That is saying a lot.
...that makes no sense, the Slaanesh part i mean. also from i know of brrodmothers they are barely sentient (whether thats natural/accidental mutation or on purpose is never stated) and their sheer size would make giving birth barely noticeable considering how small a skaven pup would be compared to the mother.
Honestly it's just your usual chaos shenanigans, tamer than usual, even. The poor women are higher than an eversor, so it's not like they feel anything or are even aware of what's happening to them.
Look at any of the Chaos gods, and you’ll find body horror. The Iron Warriors are Chaos Undivided, so it’s really no wonder that they would be up to something truly reprehensible in that department.
Actually this whole thing would make complete sense in this setting. People say oh well want the real horror. Then give then the real horror and they say oh its just being gorey to gore. Na a nomadic warmongering faction would usually make children through a similar system. Throw on top them needing tech to do it them turning to dark mechanicus who would use organic material as just a resource sounds like one of the lesser more grimdark possibilities for birth.
I got into chaos when I first learned about Warhammer 40k. So I was curious about how more traitor Marines were made. That's when I was pointed towards this thing. Don't know if this is worse or better than Fabius Bile.
On the plus side this is just how some Iron Warriors are made. Not every chaos marine. I don't think World Eaters have the patience for any of this for example.
@@CoffeeMausWorld Eaters tend to go the route of volunteering Space Marines (loyalist and traitor) by shoving the nails in to whichever ones they can find convenient enough to be unconscious.
@@CoffeeMauson the pluser pluser side. I read this was only done by *one* warband of iron warriors and that planet was destroyed by the ultra marines… If for some reason they tried to start the whole project all over against on a different planet is beyond me.
Honestly reasonable. I liked them in the heresy and prior, Perturabo is my favorite primarch (followed by Rogal Dorn) but have not read up on them much on the modern day. Honsu is twisted in a way that none of the others are.
Again, when people try to say the traitor Astartes are not so bad, we point to this, and pretty much whatever the Night Lords are up to. Not that the Imperium isn’t like 1 step away from the same level of crime against humanity. I mean… have you heard that servitors may still be conscious after being lobotomized and made into a coat rack? Suboptimal
And it will probably be the last experience for many of them as they take their computer and smash it to pieces and burn it and call in a priest to bless the ashes before moving deep into the woods.
The Daemonculaba Admittedly while Horrid at least serve a practicial purpose the creation of more Corrupted Astartes. Admittedly if not for the Chaos aspect then such a horrid but practical means of creating Astartes could be extremely useful. Especially because all evidence suggests that the creation of the Unfleshed is because of the Chaos aspect of the Daemonculaba. In theory without the Chaos corruption of the Daemonculaba it could be a very efficient way of creating Astartes with little chance of failure.
The Daemonculaba uses Chaos sorceries as part of the transformation of women into those damn things. The Dark Mechanicus uses Chaos like our tech uses lithium batteries. If the Adeptus Mecahnicus tries that it will just be torturing a bunch of women for nothing but an exterminatua as soon as theyre ratted out to the Ordo Mechanicus. Besides, remember Legienstrasse? I doubt the Imperium's gonna risk something like that again
I remember you mentioning when you were streaming that you were reading the Uriel Ventris series, and was just waiting for you to get to this part... So glad you made a video lmao, honsu is so awesome
"40K is too dark because of Daemonculaba" I guess Commorragh and its inhabitants, nuking entire Tyranid infested planets from orbit and everything related to Slaanesh is not dark enough.
Not personal enough. Things on a such a large scale are incomprehensible and incomprehensible things are incomprehensible. Drukhari are the worst ever a daemonculaba would be a kids school project but afaik nothing they do has been described in detail and it would just get so extreme and avant garde because of how far they've developed.
If you want true Body Horror from Warhammer look at Skaven and Drukhari Flesh Craft, imagine being captured, then every aspect of your form being riddle, wriggling, changing from warpstone or chemicals being injected or implied, this can result in variety of insanity you being turned into a flesh rug, a flesh room, a flesh box, or occasionally in the case of the Skaven being turned into some variety of their own kind which for some males or and all females of the Human, Dawi, or Eldari Persuasion that are partitioned from those captured for the purpose of enslavement creating new Skaven means being turned into a Skaven Broodmother.
Finally, you're incredibly apprehensive voice actually fits the topic! I love how this is from the iron warriors too, The least chaos out of the original traitor legion
Its just a casual goon session brah Also i wanna bring up graham mcneil's 2nd most controversial scene vs this when fulgrim had his soul "purged" and it turned out he just wanted to goon with his pals it was disturbing like most EC bits is them just being edge etc with the iron warriors you 100% see why they would do this adding to the terror
after seeing the other grimdark stuff in warhammer 40k the daemonculaba for me now feels slightly less terrifying when compared my first reaction of it (still messed up though).
Honestly I think the reason why the Daemonculaba is so shocking isn't fully because what it is but who is doing it. When you hear about it you think "this has to be something the Emperor's Children, or the Word Bearers, or the Drukhari would do." But then you hear its the cold, calculating Iron Warriors then you go "holy FUCK."
"taken aback" bro cried! This thing was so traumatic that it made a freaking Space Marine fall down in all fours and start sobbing by the trauma he went through!
I do find the Daemonculaba very out of character for the Iron Warriors, I can see many other traitor legions committing such horrible acts like these but Iron Warriors would be the last I would assume because they hate mutations.
They do hate mutations, but the end product (rapid, low mutation rate., stable astartes production) for the resources put into it makes the whole system "worth the investment" to them. they have much in common with fabius bile in what tools they are willing to use as a means to their ends.
A lot of my friends, and my wife, constantly berate me for not being into horror films and the like. This is because 1) Ive never had an interest in modern day horror and 2) THIS SHIT had effectively desensitized me to anything they could throw at me. I have to constantly remind them that I am into COSMIC horror and 40K, which are arguably worth more in concepts, shock value, and not letting you sleep at night than the drivel they push on me.
In theory the Democulaba is not the worst thing in 40k. In practice it is only by virtue of going into far far far more detail than any of the worse things in the setting. In other words, its the worst thing in 40k described in detail.
My thing about it is the daemonculaba is horrible but *as far as we know* that one attempt with Honsou was the only time it ever occurred. And while theoretically it could likely be redone somewhere else I get the feeling its the sort of setup that is kinda hard to get working right given that Honsou's own setup was regularly fucking up. Moreso something I think is a lot worse is just the general idea of Genestealer cults because they're literally everywhere and 90% of them are at a fundamental level breeding cults, something that lends itself easily to...bad things happening on a large scale. Even worse the book Deathwatch shows you people don't *need* to be brainwashed by the Patriarch in order to make hybrids/purestrains, which is honestly kinda fucking horrifying to think about.
Yeah, the nids themselves may be animals, but they cause a great deal of harm and evil in the setting. lets not forget that where everything else (including the forces of space hell) has a soul, they have a giant shadowy hole surrounded by teeth.
An interesting take would be a chapter from the view of one of the "mothers", describing how she loves all her children, but only the Unfleshed are worthy. Trying to live long enough to sire worthy children, yet seeing only the unworthy raised up.
for anyone who dosn't know what the thing in the title is and is squeamish/ has trouble with body horror, the answer is yes. And by body horror I mean the slimy, malformed wet kind
Also thinking of other things Uriel has experienced, the scene where he watches corrupted Necrons de-inter a marine from a dreadnought is also up there.
No. Because it’s exactly the sort of thing that would happen in 40K, because the chaos gods have absolutely no limits when it comes to spreading their domain.
Uriel Jr. was created by a Iron Warrior with hybrid Imperial Fist geneseed, using a human mother, a lot of daemon juice and Ultramarine boyscout Uriel Sr. DNA after being unbirthed. Let me repeat that, Uriel Jr is a Ultramarine daemon created by an Iron Warrior Chimera unborn from a human mother and the best part? Trained by an angsty Raven Guard traitor. This shit doesn't get more main protagonist than it is, GW pls Daemonculaba anime.
I don't know if you know Arthur but the third Ultramarine book was also the third (I think) Iron Warrior book. With the Iron Warrior books following Honsou's journey from reject halfbreed to sick and twisted individual. They're also a good read. As for not going all in on the body horror, GW has a huge teen and young adult fan base. This was even more true when the book first came out. They always toe the line between sick and disturbing but also what parents will let slide.
The daemonculaba honestly isn't any worse than the usual 40k grimdark edginess the brand is known for But what sets it apart, and why even the fans of the tabletop go "dude, wth?!" Is the presentation. How vivid he makes a picture of the whole thing, and how well written it was so as to pace the reader and feed their mounting dread as the process and the struggle is detailed. If it was anyone else we would've gotten the quality writing that made "Grey Knights Bathing in the Blood of Sisters of Battle" stuff. So yeah, it's not the contents, it's the presentation.
Honestly from what I've seen and read it's not the most horrifying thing in Warhammer franchise for me. I mean people will often say Drukhari, and existentially the brief descriptions of what it's like to be eaten by tyrannid bioforms made my skin crawl a lot more.
I was just listening to some music by the Band called lamb of God and one of their songs. Now you have something to die for has so much unintentional synergy with the 40K Universe, it's kind of scary. The lyrics go as follows. Now you've got something to die for Infidel Imperial Lust for blood, a blind crusade Apocalyptic, we count the days Bombs to set the people free Blood to feed the dollar tree Flags for coffins on the screen Oil for the machine Army of liberation Gunpoint indoctrination The fires of sedition Fulfill the prophecy Now you've got something to die for Now you've got something to die for Send the children to the fire Sons and daughters stack the pyre Stoke the flame of the empire Live to lie another day Face of hypocrisy Raping democracy Apocalyptic We count the days
When I first heard about this I thought oh what kind of horror is it only to find out it's just milder berserk and milder Dragon Age origins. Read up on the Daka from beserk.

I had such a delightful breakfast listening to this.
Its nice to see a more nuanced and subtle viewpoint on this subject instead of the "oh damonculaba bad" everyone else does.
This man described a daemonculaba and really was like eh, seen worse, "lost a few points".

Oh it’s like Scorn.
I looked up the brood mother, and I wish to live a world in which I didn't do tgat.
The Daemonculaba is just a grim dark version of the Axlotl tanks from Dune, and there is nothing that's going to change my mind.
When I read the book, the only thing I could think was that "you can grow skin on frames", they don't even need the skin farms.
The process of becoming a daemonculaba is left blank and an exercise for the reader.
Are there any Iron Warrior characters we know about that come from the Deamon Khabab like Hansu or something?
Does Carl (Llamas with Hats) work for the Dark Mechanicum. Making meat monsters and doing all other horrible shit, this sounds like Carl.
Hearing about the daemonculaba is every 40k fans baptism
Welcome, fellow American! Here's your handgun and Kid Rock album.
I was just listening to some music by the Band called lamb of God and one of their songs. Now you have something to die for has so much unintentional synergy with the 40K Universe, it's kind of scary. The lyrics go as follows.
Now you've got something to die for
Infidel
Imperial
Lust for blood, a blind crusade
Apocalyptic, we count the days
Bombs to set the people free
Blood to feed the dollar tree
Flags for coffins on the screen
Oil for the machine
Army of liberation
Gunpoint indoctrination
The fires of sedition
Fulfill the prophecy
Now you've got something to die for
Now you've got something to die for
Send the children to the fire
Sons and daughters stack the pyre
Stoke the flame of the empire
Live to lie another day
Face of hypocrisy
Raping democracy
Apocalyptic
We count the days
When I first heard about this I thought oh what kind of horror is it only to find out it's just milder berserk and milder Dragon Age origins.
Read up on the Daka from beserk.
