      I always thought it was so he could better represent humanity as a concept. 40K is all about pressing ever on despite how much life sucks. Perpetuals can be killed, but not permanently, like how the human spirit can only be diminished, not destroyed

      Makes you wonder how much suffering it would take to break a perpetual like Vulkan.
      Not necessarily irreparably, but at least to the extent that his inherently optimistic and benevolent nature is corrupted and transformed into apathetic depression.
      The idea of a figure purpose-built to exemplify the very best of humanity experiencing such a fate is the epitome of **Grimdark** - and just imagine the potential redemption arc.

      And it turned out that Magnus and the Thousands Sons where working on their own Webway, the Portal Maze.
      It was supposed to be more difficult to access and navigate, but also more stable and allowed easier access to the Eldar Webway tunnels.
      From how I understand it. The Emperor basically tried to force access to the Webway with his psychic might. That caused the Webway access to be unstable.
      The Thousand Sons had a far more gentle approach to creating the connection. But that made access more difficult. Another issue might be stability in keeping Daemons out.
      And yea, that one does kinda speak against the whole "Magnus did nothing wrong". Because he must have recognised what he was smashing through. 😒

    It's interesting how Vulkan's character has shifted over the years.
    "Any man who values life over pride is worthy of my service." - Vulkan when the Emperor sacrificed his greater trophy in their contest to save the Primarch.
    Initally, the key element was humility alongside compassion and a deliberate patience.
    Vulkan and his Legion took rearguard action, corrected wayward brothers or later chapter masters when they crossed lines, and counseled patience rather haste.
    Now, the hugging seems to be the primary trait 😂

    The Salamanders understand best that Space Marines exist to protect the people of the Emperium. They are the Truest to the spirit of what Space Marines were made for. An important note (for me, maybe not this specific video) is that the Salamanders are the only legion/chapter that spend time with their biological family after they are Space Marines. They have the closest connection to the people of the Emperium and what they are protecting. If a Salamander makes it old enough for 'retirement' (he's so old or damaged that he's not combat effective) they go home and become a part of the community that birthed them. This may not be specifically relevant to a Vulcan focused video, and I don't believe that he ordered it. But I see it as the spirit of Vulcan that lives in every Salamander and the culture of Nocturne. Good Video. Can't wait for the next two.

  • @FFVogter.-em6zz
    @FFVogter.-em6zz 15 วันที่ผ่านมา +81

    To sum off Vulkan, he embodies what it means to have a strong heart. He is kind, virtuous, compassionate and loving, but also has the same strength of heart to keep on remaining as such even after he was driven insane from the pain of Konrad's torture and retain it after recovering from his madness. He and Sanguinius are loved because they are kind in a grimdark world and fight back even harder because of said kindness.
    The Emperor may value his most loyal sons like the Lion, Rogal and Ferrus or play favorite with Horus but he had a special kind of trust in Vulkan.

    I have always felt that Big E saved Vulkan not to emotionally manipulate or playing some 3d chess, I think the Emperor was for a single moment a father saving his son. The single moment that he was in a position of needing and being able to save one of his sons, so he did without hesitation or counting the cost. He couldn't save Angron, Kurze, Logar or Mortie but he could save Vulkan.

      I am not convinced he couldn't have saved Angron. I am not saying I KNOW if he had done the fanboy situation and had fought beside Angron and the slaves, that Angron would have been loyal to him; and I am EMPATHETIC realizing that Big E met Morty before Angron and he more or less tried to do EXACTLY THAT for Morty and Morty just through a massive temper tantrum about it.
      Never forget; when you write "If your place is with them, then my place is with you" Angron fanfictions, this is almost EXACTLY what the Emperor did for Morty. He showed dup, saw Morty leading a rebel army against their oppressors, and said "I can fight beside you and help you attain victory" and Morty just screeched "WE HAVE NO NEED OF YOU OUTSIDER"

      I completely agree. He's the emperor and all. But I do not believe he would be capable of orchestrating something like that unless his foresight was as good as Tzeench's.
      He had no true way of knowing how his primarchs would be like by this point. If he did:
      1-he would've helped mortarion deal with his dad in a way that would actually earn his loyalty.
      2- he wouldn't have turn a sore loser when he competed with Leman only to then punch his lights out and bring his unconscious son back to the ship.
      And 3- he wouldn't have done ANY OF THE THINGS HE DID RELATED TO ANGRON.
      Yes he's a mastermind and everything but people need to remember that scatterering the primarchs was never his idea to begin with and most likely had to improvise a lot off the first meetings he had with his sons

      @rungunninja1289 15 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Honestly I just assumed he already knew some were going to go rogue like Konrad or angron but all the other ones who would be involved were grayed out. So he found two obvious ones that were going to be the ones who were going evil and accepted they were already too far gone to save. He then distance himself from them and focused on narrowing down which ones were not going to go evil. he is making the best of a bad situation. Like he realizes lorgar was likely another bad one and decided to speed it up so he could put him on the list of traitors and narrow down who else. while hoping the ones like Vulkan, Corvus, guilman, Horus, sanguineou, and fulgrim, were good ones because he saw potential in them to make the best humanity without him.
      Him saving vulkan over winning was not some grand kindness or some manipulation but more he was not going to let him die over a stupid contest. Vulkan was a one of kind weapon to him. Of course he save him. Now vulkan’s response to being saved is probably when the emperor came to like vulkan. He saw someone who had no big ego and immediately gave him more glory for doing something normal for humans while several other sons would have had their pride hurt or something else but instead vulkan wanted to immediately repay him even when he won. Looking at that he probably immediately felt vulkan was the most human and surprisingly mature primarch.
      I always feel if you assume the emperor was trying to interact with his children as if he was trying to figure out who was going bad while not being use to having people who rival him is anything. For example Russ on a drinking contest and him being a little bit of a bad sport because he is not used to someone beating him at anything, you kind of get half of his behavior. Then you can see half the stuff he does as more oh he was narrowing down who was likely going to be the bad ones and was a bad dad from inexperience with it so it makes more sense especially given how he was prioritizing humanity as a whole over everything and everyone else.

So emperor would make big choices based on how many futures his empire benefits from said choices, making him such a Great politican, but small ones, including fatherly actions to his sons, when he tried to be one and incidently those were the cases that joined horus, relying in that ability, rather than just using common sence in those situations and being present, would have lead to how it endead and ironically he could have asked any father in his army what he did wrong and gotten right answers from human perspective.

    Once again, I am requesting that you take a look at the Necron books "The Twice Dead King". Without going into much into spoilers, the books delve into quite a number of interesting concepts that few other books, let alone 40k books, touch on.
    Things like 'After losing the need and ability to eat and breathe, how well would a person handle the psychological impluses to do those?' and 'If someone becomes immortal, but is never able to physiologically develop past adolescence, how does that impact their character?'
    Additionally, the books have very powerful moments regarding familial ties, sanity, and how our own perception of events can warp and change over time. There are also some amazing supporting characters that range from being top tier memes to being profoundly deep.
    The two books have no right being as good as they are, or for how emotionally impactful they can be at times. Given how you've been looking at the primarchs in more of a psychological way, I really believe that you would fully enjoy these books.

    Vulkan and the Salamanders are my favorites, because they embody something that I unfortunately find very relevant to life. They see fully all the horrors and cruelty of the universe before them, and how impossible it is for them to make significant changes, and they still choose to care and to do the right thing. They make hard choices and major sacrifices for the things that make life worth living, not just what keeps them alive. They understand that without kindness, connection, hope and joy, that there is no point to "winning". That human beings are more important than any system we create, and that nothing we have made matters without humans. As the kids say "the horrors persist, but so do I."

    • @Jynx_Splatoon
      @Jynx_Splatoon 15 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I largely agree, but I don’t think they just do it only out of being kind for the sake of kindness, but that (at least some) salamanders do genuinely believe they can make the universe change for the better.
      I know 40K is all grimdark, but even in that setting, people like Vulkan almost make me feel like humanity has a chance.

    As always I really appreciate your character analysis of Vulkan and am looking forward to hearing your thoughts about him when you finish reading through to The End and the Death - particularly his interactions with Magnus.
    I also wanted to thank you for highlighting the very important distinction between true pacifism and the semblance of it. For most, pacifism is a moral stance they never have to defend because nothing they value is ever truly threatened. And, if it were, I think many would choose to do nothing and thus sacrifice others in place of themselves as they’re be unwilling to embrace the personal sacrifice of risking their lives and going against their ideals to preserve the lives and virtue of others. Vulkan does that. He is willing to fight to preserve his ideals at tremendous personal cost. Not only to his body and mind, but to his conscience and sense of self.

    9:36 I think the two motivations for Big E's actions are not mutually exclusive. Read Master of Mankind and you get a sense for the depth of the emperor's capacity for cynical and manipulative methods to achieve an end. But, he also has a deep capacity for empathy especially towards his kind. Basilius Pho, a perpetual and one of the few who's known Big E since the very beginning, absolutely hates the emperor but when asked why he thinks the Emperor even bothered shepherding weakling humans when he could have gene-wrought all of them into something greater his respons is essentially "Eh, he's a big softie for the humans." imo the Emperor knew an act of compassion would turn Vulkan to his side, but that doesn't mean the act wasn't sincere.

    I’m a big Vulkan and Salamanders fan, and I personally hope GW writes him to be the last loyalist primarch to return to the setting. He and his legion probably embody humanity’s hope the best and most consistently out of his brothers and their respective legions. So i personally think that him returning to setting when things are truly truly dire (I’d imagine being the last primarch to return would probably mean that humanity is really on the back pedal in the setting) would really round out his theme and symbolism in the setting. Literally being a spark of hope in the dark.

    Honestly i respect it, the take on the Emperor. I like him not only being somewhat morally grey (tho i would argue hes firmly on the good guy side, he might be bad guy coded but hes literally enduring endless pain for longer than we have historical records just to keep humanity going). But i also like it when hes both shown as very human and very inhuman.
    I dont know wich book this is from, and im paraphrasing, but it is said that the Emperor has mood shifts at the lifetime scale, wereas you might have a good week were you are all chill and funny, and another week were youre cold and grumpy, the emperor has that every 80 years or so. I love the idea that you might catch him being as cold as his plans need him to be, or being an overall example of very chill very lovable humanity, all depending on the time and context. Id rather that than him being inhuman and souless
