The Carcharodons, also known as the Carcharodons Astra in High Gothic and sometimes as the "Space Sharks" in Low Gothic, is a Loyalist Space Marine Chapter of an unknown Founding, though it has been alleged to be either an ancient Chapter born as early as the Second Founding, or a relatively new Chapter raised during the 23rd Founding.
When the Salamanders summon a giant flame dragon with their psychic powers it's 'So metal!' yet when the Space Sharks summon a giant shark it's too 'on the nose'. Curious...
Duality
Well I find them both awesome but unlike space sharks salamanders aren’t basically doing space wolves
@@stalinsoulz7872 i see what you did there
I think it's less on the nose for the Salamanders since their Librarians bend fire into the shape of a dragon, while the Space Sharks just summon a straight up shark avatar to eat people.
@@vahlok1426 I kinda like that more, the idea of a ethereal shark swimming through walls and the floor like water. It’s not fair for chaos to get all the fun stuff.
I love how Bricky calls the Charcarodons edgy when his favorite chapter is the fucking Night Lords
Ironic isn't it? Lol
He also admits they're cool though, we all admit that the night lords are edgy to the point of parody, but that's part of their charm.
@@emjaaaay i find em funny not cool
Well Charcarodons are Night Lord successors
@@phantomwraith1984 no theyre not there raven guard mayhaps spliced in other gene seeds but read zee books nerd
Okay I think the BEST way to describe Carcharodon battle doctrine is...
Stealthy like a Raven Guard
Terrifying like a Night Lord
Rips and Tears like a World Eater
*Exactly*
@@tyberostheredwake6153 what are your thoughts on the Tyranids?
So like a shark then.
@@tyberostheredwake6153so Tyberos what you opinion on King Shark declaring he is more of a shark than you?
@@mr.malpractice6390 I was there. His thoughts were that "The pod will continue birthing organisms until it is destroyed. Wait hear and clear any stragglers"
There were no stragglers.
One of the traditions that was missed was when these space marines gather recruits, first thing they do is have everyone 1v1 duel to the death until half the recruits are left. One of the reasons why they have so many fatalities.
I mean a LOT of Space marine chapters do that if I'm not mistaken. Getting "number 1 victory royale yeah Fortnite we 'bout to get down 10 kills on the bord right now just wiped out tomato town" is probably the least surprising thing with Space Marines
They also implant the gene-seed with septic medical instruments because Grimderp.
@@FoxHound-ut1hu nah the sharks Geneseed is implanted inside a coral covered apothercarion The polyps miasma it releases kill bacteria and other viruses
@@josemontalvomelendez5642 huh I was wrongly informed it seems.
Some sharks also do that, but instead of space marine recruits in an arena, it's shark embryos inside the uterus.
The Salamanders Librarians: Summon a literal fire dragon.
DK: "YO THAT'S DOPE!"
The Carcharodons Librarians: Summon a literal psychic shark.
DK: "PFFT, fuckin LAAAAAAAAAME."
DK having no taste? nothing new.
Dragons are cooler than sharks simple as that. Also it’s made of fire. If the space sharks did something similar like use whatever fluid was available, maybe that’s why they want to spill and spread so much blood, and phychicly manipulate that liquid into a shark, that would essentially jump 10 levels of cool in my book. Else it feels a little tacked on, more like an idea someone slapped onto them to keep the shark theme going and not something that looks like it would’ve developed in universe through the chapters culture and values.
Its just the rest of the space sharks lore lmao the salamanders dragon is coolified by the lore the sharks well shark is cringified by the lore
And he's right
My favourite story from the Charcarodons was when tyberos and had an interaction with an adeptus mechanicus, he was so still and quiet than the mechanicus thought he was a statue
Until he moved slightly and he MADE THE MECHANICUS FEEL FEAR, a thing that has programmed itself to not feel any emotions, dude is so terrifying that he forced the mechanicus to oil itself
The thing about tyberos in that scene was like acts like a costudian time to time unless he answers your question to which he formal speaks
The mere fact that Tyberos, a hulking Space Marine who is so fucking big he needs to use dreadnought armor with his own terminator armor, managed to make a tech priest oil himself in sheer fear just makes me laugh. That and the fact that the Carcharodons, when going to save some Inquisitors from a deranged cult, managed to give said Inquisitors a severe case of PTSD, just makes this chapter so fucking awesome.
@@muttproductions2536 it's still fucking funny how that thing happened twice or so. Like she really isn't having a good time being the emperor vanquisher of the unworthy and nonbeliever
No matter how machine you become, you cannot escape your primal instincts.
“Oil itself” lmao
Bricky- “The Nightlords skin children”
Also Bricky-“they’re fun”
That's what makes them fun
If we want people to hate Nightlords, we make them skin dogs
@@S3verusMyG I wouldn't be surprised if they did that too
@@GrayvyboatTHEY DEFINITELY DO THAT WITHOUT A DOUBT
The kids will be fine. You should worry about the parents
Bricky seriously called the Carcharodons edgy when the forces of chaos exist. And the raven guard. And the night lords. And the Death Korps of Krieg.
Bricky & DK: *pointing out Tyberos’ totems on his armor*
Also Bricky & DK: *misses the actual massive shark jaws around his helmet like a cowl*

@@woaddragon ... wow I didn't know Ultramarines frequented this comment section.
@@trampoline11x Hello there, Dark Angel, how is The Lion.
@lunatic is baked leading the charge of the Legion of the Damned.
Yeah you heard me.
I like the theory that they were the Raven Guard from before Corax' discovery. He didn't care for their cut-throat and bloody tactics, so he exiled them to be replaced by the rebels from Deliverance
More like the fact they took slaves. Given Corax was himself enslaved he didn’t mesh well with the battalion of Raven Guard in the Great Crusade that did so
There’s a large group of ppl that believe it’s this battalion of Raven Guard that Corax sent out during the Great Crusade but refused to recall even during the Heresy that eventually grew into the Carcaradons. Potentially splintering into them and the Ashen Claws chapter another renegade Raven Guard chapter they maintain ties with despite them renouncing the Imperium entirely. That’s very weird for a super loyal chapter like the Space Sharks
The pale skin, black eyes and becoming more of an introspective loner over time are also signature Raven Guard characteristics resulting directly from the geneseed of Corax
But also abit of nightlords who knows
Nostraman traits too
Redditors.
They are both
I'm a huge fan of the theory that there is one loyalist successor for each traitor primarch. I doubt GW will ever confirm it, but it's a cool idea.
They're currently canon raven guard descending from the more brutal terran raven guard
@@gringlebandersnatch I know, it's just more of a headcanon thing.
@@gringlebandersnatch this hasn't been confirmed just *heavily* implied as far as I'm aware.
It's a pretty common theory that cawl is making primaris Marines from traitor stock, despite gulliman explicitly telling him he can't.
I mean, "the Sons of the Phoenix" are a chapter
@@r.cdahuman7682 I mean....they only have the exact same flagship those raven guard legionaries had, black eyes, white skin, a proclivity towards stealth tactics and use the exact same title for chapter master (shade lord) as the Leader of those exiled raven guard Arkhas Fal.
It's pretty much all but confirmed, like how you can't really overlook that the sons of the phoenix are fulgrims even though they're legally not.
These episodes about smaller chapter really makes me want to see a Legion of the Damned episode some day.
If DK doesn't like "on the nose" stuff, wait until he meets the emperor's litteral deus ex machinas
Who's the deus ex machinas? The Custodians?
@@power-armoured_german9856 No, the legion of the damned
I can’t believe we got an episode on CARCHARODONS before blood angles
Reset the clock!
I mean we got Lamenters long before blood angels
I was literally thinking the exact same thing. Nothing wrong with that but seeing them before a first founding like BA was a surprise. I could also see them doing this just to spite the people telling them to do BA already
We got a Space Sharks episode before a fucking Tzeentch episode.
@@Ian.420 all part of the plan…….
With the Māori aesthetic, now I’m imagining a bunch of space marines doing a Hakka war dance
four Squads of Space sharks roll up, Do a hakka, and the Horde of Deamons flinches away and flees back into the warp.
That edit of the Minotaurs turning into a smiling Perturabo made me laugh way more than I have in a while.
My favorite chapter by far, the fact that their very stealthy at times including their leader who is the largest space marine ever is hilarious also dk’s idea of their founding on an ocean world where they learn to love hunting from hunting animals on their sea world is dope and should be cannon
Considering there is a *tribe* that revolves around hunting underwater and litteraly adapted to it, it would be really fitting for space sharks
I now wish for the day for the gang to learn about the Minotaurs.
That part about the hippity hippity is pretty cool cos some species of shark do just that, commandeer fish (sometimes whole schools) to serve them and or join them either willingly due to survival sense/weighing up odds or in return for not being eaten

What I like about the Carcharodons, is that they are quite literally monstrous, bloodthirsty beasts, but when engaged with friendly chapters, they are actually pretty chill guys.
Yeah, as chill as sharks can be. B)

Kia Ora my brothers, I never thought I’d ever see Adeptus Ridiculous cover my favourite chapter and a part of my own culture in an episode. Kia Kaha, thank you guys.
Time to hear about the space megladon
You're gonna need a bigger Battle Barge...
When the Carcharodons entered the Badab war, the first thing they did was attacking the Mantis Warriors chapter in the Endymion cluster. Needless to say they didn’t take many precautions against damaging infrastructure, plundering the various planets’ mineral resources as they hunted down the Mantis Warriors to near extinction. They even Launched a massive drop pod assault on Endymion Prime itself, ignoring the directions of the loyalist forces holding out on the battlefield and turning the entire planet into a war zone. By the end of the campaign the Carcharodons ruined at least a dozen inhabited planets. Millions were left rotting unburied or starving and the Mantis Warriors were no longer an effective fighting force. The conduct of the Space Sharks was so brutal that other more honorable loyalist chapters (fire angels) got angry and withdrew from the war.
LETS GOOOOOO. Really hope they do Badab sometime soon.
With the yellow and black salamanders?
If "so ridiculous they're cool" is the standard for the channel then AdRic definitely has to discuss the Black Dragons next
26:43 they also go into a berserkr rage like a feeding frenzy once they strike. Wildly and brutally slaughtering their enemies!
I'm currently make them as my first tabletop army
40k in general really is the epitome of, get into it at 14 for the edge, and stay with it as you mature and Actually find the character depth
Like inquisition when you start "RAAAAA EXTERMINSTUS, HERESY BLEEEH"
inquisition when reading anything by dan abnett "oh... I'm sad now"
Inquisition when reading anything by sandy Mitchell "pwease notice me inquisitor vale UwU"
The bastard finally did it. He depicted a marine in the best armor mark, 8, errant! Sincerely, the one guy who plays deathwatch
Damn, my computer crashed as soon as Bricky said;
"They love murder,"
The best working theory i have heard is the space sharks were founded by Jago Sevatarion after the siege of terra. And given a sanction as long as they stayed outside imperial borders unless called back by the inquisition.
Honestly tho if The emperor or the Inquisition Called them back to terra OOOH BOY SHIT EITHER HIT THE FAN or the End times crusade is upon us (btw Ngl The space sharks would make Amazing Forward Covert ops units for a crusade) just recon and hit targets of opportunity before a Bigger Chapter comes in such as the Black templars or One of the Many Variations of Blood Ravens or imperial Fists
My shark boys got so much flak from bricky and clown it hurts me my soul.
Paraphrase TFS Vegeta.
“That’s so dumb, but they are so cool, but they are so dumb.”
Imagine fighting these shork marines and the chapter master casually SUMMONING A SHARK IN THE FUCKIN' BATTLEFIELD
Other loyalists: we will bring death and suffering to the xenos
These guys: We will bring death and SURFING!
And now I'm imagining Carcharodons slaughtering daemons to Break Stuff, thanks Bricky
27:16 DK, there's at least one *notable* ocean world in the Imperium. Just one issue.
-
It's Talassar.
-
It's an Ultramarine world
I'd love to see an upgrade sprue for them some day, easily my favorite loyalists. I want MORE of them.
Bricky thinking the space sharks are edgy and over the top while loving night lords, sisters of battle and astra militarum is insanity.
The enemy came in wielding chainsaws, knife hands, killed everyone and blew up our reactor! Just like sharks.
I believe the Carcharodons were bound to the fringes of the galaxy due to them being on a Penace Crusade for some past failures or some unworhtiness deemed by the High Lords of Terra and not just sus sharks in murky waters. Either way I wish they got some more models or at least an upgrade sprue other just their Shade Lord. However, this just shows to the creativity of the fans as I have seen some amazing conversions and tribal paint schemes for this chapter!
On another note: that was a 'Primed Reach' by Bricky and I am loving the Warframe references by DK. I'm surprised we haven't heard a Soon'TM for any upcoming Tyranid models lmao
Also Day 37 of asking for a Space Wolves video 😭
Nothing to do with the high lords of terra. Their primarch gave the order.
It's because they're from the Terran Raven Guard that Corrax exiled for slaving methods (real) and potential loyalty to Horus (wasn't true).
@@orcbrand Yes, and they are bound to the rules of exile. Which means they can only recruit from penal colonies or people considered not "right-holding civilians" of the imperium. So while it seems like they just show up to a planet to have a red tide, they are actually law abiding. (and its suspected under these specific rules of exile that they acquired a large amount of nightlord geneseed)
I support the theory that the Carcharadons are mutated Alpha Legion successors, mostly based on Tyberos being who he is.
Tyberos being such a huge marine would fit the Alpha Legion "geneflaw" with some of their marines being extraordinarily big and looking like their Primarch but now after thousands of years and geneseed deterioration they don't look like their Primarch anymore and have instead developed these new sharky traits.
If they were around long enough to have been around when Big E was still alive, meaning they were part of the Second Founding when Legions first split up into the 1000 marine chapters and it would be very weird for a second founding chapter to go missing or be unkown if it came from one of the loyalist Legions because this was still in the time when the Imperium kinda had it together organisational wise, with the Primarchs still being around. The Second Founding chapters are generally some of the most famous successors as well so it would be weird for the loyalist chapters to just forget one of their first successors like that. That pushes me more towards them coming from a traitor Legion in general but then again
They were around since the Emperor ran around but always shunned to a degree, maybe because they came from that traitor legion, and have been stalking the edge of the galaxy since. This time has made them branch away from the "Teleports behind you, nothing personal kid" bs of the Great Crusade era Alpha Legion and had them develop their own style of fighting, maybe deliberately to get others thinking that they are Raven Guard or maybe even Night Lords successors.
Still though some traits of their parent Legion remained, always popping up out of nowhere or Tyberos being one of the marines to grow to the height of a Primarch.
Now that all being said, I could see another reason why Tyberos is that big. The Carcharadons salvaging geneseed might've led to them accidentally picking up some Alpha Legion geneseed along the way and fusing it into their previous one, thus making Tyberos the huge mf he is. Why only Tyberos is that big is the same reason as to why only some Marines of the Alpha Legion became that big, it's not every single marine that looks like their Primarch and is that tall, it's a few of them. Downsized to 1000 marines of a chapter and that chance sinks, along with whatever the hell goes on at the edge of the galaxy.
I could absolutely see a Harlequin rotating one of these marines just because it would be hilarious
They have the same flagship as the raven guard terrans that were sent off for being too brutal when corax took over. They use the same title for chapter master as those exiles, the only chapter to use that title. They have black hair and alabaster skin. They use stealth and terror tactics (the raven guard were just night lords but yanno not tactically shit and not led by a broken lunatic) etc.
Fun fact: The main theory now a days is that the Gene Seed of the Carcharodons is Chimeric, so it can come from a number of sources and all can be correct.
Also go read the Carcharodon books, they're very good and it's hilarious to see the Night Lords kinda scared.
If i remember right the origins of the sharks is when the crusade found corax and he was reunited with his legion, he didnt like the terran raven guard. They just didnt click.
So after a while of him recruiting marines from nocturne and the losses over time of the terran raven guard, he sent the originals out to guard the rim against anything that would hit the flanks of the crusade. Then over the 10,000 years of never coming back they had some genetic drift.
Over time the raven guard identity got lost and they started seeing themselves as predators of the outer darkness protecting from outside threats. The sharks weren't born they just evolved into what they are now.
Yo the flag ship Nicor, the bridge has a giant fucking fish tank with 2 MEGALODONS swimming around it. LIKE BRUH. THAT'S AWESOME.
I do love the fact he glossed over how the Carcharadons "won the Badab war" by literally making the core of Badab Primaris, the home planet of the astral claws/red corsairs, and literally made the planets tectonics plates go haywire. Like, I love this chapter, I've even made em, but they are so excessive
My favorite chapter. I've been looking forward to this.
Oh fuck ya bud, my favorite chapter! I honestly never thought you guys would cover an obscure chapter like this
That is a fantastic thumbnail
DK doesn't know what he's talking about. A shark being summoned from the ground to devour a dude is cool. It's dumb, but it's cool.
It's like the Madaras Whistle from Bloodborne, but with a shark instead of a snake.
The Carcharadon ultimate secret attack: A bunch of them jump on a Whirlwind and then become the Sharknado!
I’ve been watching your content for the last half year, but only today did I see the bottom half of the skull’s jaw in the log.
Reaper Prime during red tide: *Congratulations you are chosen to serve the empire, please do not resist*
Designing their mechsuits with old-school diving aesthetics was a good choice, too.
Tyberos sounds like vin diesel “Charcarodons are family, you don’t mess with family” proceeds to destroy with lightning claws
You should make the quote for rogal dawn be “you are shocked father, and I understand why. I do hope our nightly cuddling sessions will not be effected by this”
Shy showing the Lotara Sarrin Warlord card was the high of this episode for me.
I love that you can tell DK is a Thousand Sons fan with his hate towards the furry space wolves and love for the Ahriman and the Egyptian mummy looking legion
I always thought the Space Sharks has some form of phasing ability to phase through walls and floors, giving them a shark like feat to jump out from the ground and attack thrir enemies like a shark from every shark attack movies.
If so, can you imagine if you as a heretic committing some heresy, only for a large terminator arm came out from the ground, grab on one of your leg and drag you into your gory doom.
you want on the nose? the iron hands, they sever one of their hands to replace them with robotic hands, their primarch is ferrus mannus, which means iron hands in latin, and he has IRON HANDS
This was the perfect episode to collab with majorkill
In this episode, Bricky overthinks a setting made completely by the kids who say "Nuh-uh, my Hulk has an anti iron man field, you can't nuke him!"
"Whatcha know about rolling down in the deep!" (Dose the worm while brooding) - complete silence - "god I'm so fucking cool"
I love the theory that Tyberos is a reincarnated Konrad Kurze but cured of his insanity and the Carcharodons were created as his atonement for all the Nightlords had been.
As a reminder:
There are 6 books/shorts featuring the Carcharadon Astra!
They are, in chronological order:
The Judges, In Their Hunger (standalone vs Emps Children)
The Reaping Time (short prequel to Red Tithe)
The Red Tithe (vs Night Lords on a prison planet)
Death Warrant ( short sharks + rogue trader vs Necrons)
The Outer Dark (ALL THE SHARKS VS A HIVE FLEET)
Silent Hunters (Worst book about a squad questing for a Space McGuffin guided by young Tom Moon from The Stand.)
Outer Dark is the best one by far and gives the most info about the chapter.
CARCHARODONTS - have swimming pools on massive spaceships. Also, when they are on the move, the fleet plays Van Halen.
ALSO - the sacred Admirals and Pilots/Navigators are known as "the Motley Crew"
the whole imperium needs to be thankful for the space sharks, as i'm positive they're the only ones not just winning, but pushing back the alien.. and are always in the voids far away from any safety.
I wonder what Adeptus Ridiculous will think about the fanon legion the angry Marines
Their opinions are pretty much the same as mine. They go a little too hard into the shark part, and the conversions mirror that by adding dorsal fins everywhere. But they are too much fun to not love. I’m starting a space shark army, and I’m going more into the Polynesian and thrown together armor aesthetic as opposed to the sharky one. Also, yea, they really need to make the space shark books as audio books.
nice
The whole Pacific Islanders inspiration has me thinking…
Wouldn’t it be so cool if before a battle then did Haka. The chapter know for there utter silence hits you with the loudest, most primal war song possible before falling into complete silence to begin battle.
In the quote it’s saids, “there forgotten one”, so they might be from 2nd or 11th legion
40K books done as audio plays would be sick!
GW: We need a new chapter, nerds.
Writer: (Crosses out 'Wolves' on Space Wolves and writes 'Sharks')
GW: You are a gawdamn genius.
I bet them being mysteriously old is a reference to sharks dating back to prehistoric times
You guys better do my boys good or I'm going to show you how to embrace The Void
A cool story from the Badab War that they didn't mention is The Corcyran Massacre.
Brothers of the Carcharodons and the Executioners battled each other to mutual annihilation, to the point where neither chapter has acknowledged any survivors. A Loyalist naval patrol later discovered the site of the conflict, which was wrecked with gore and evidence that warriors of both sides fought to their very last breaths.
Sharks! On your interstellar war path? Might be more likely than you think.
Not gonna lie, I love the Carcharodons because of how on the nose they can be. Though I am in somewhat agreement to the elemental shark power. I love how just so over the top “I’m a shark! I’m a shark! I’m a shark!” they can be. But that’s just me because I tend to like it if something is inspired heavily by something they run with it.
Proof they are Nightlords:
1) They knew the Emperor when he was flesh, only Chapters that existed DURING the Great Crusade can claim this.
2)They were on a penitent crusader that lasted long enough for memory of them to be wiped away from the weakened Imperium.
3)They get their recruits from Prisons like the original NightLords.
You’d think they were definitely night lords listening to bricky. More evidence suggests they were originally raven guard and they started mixing gene-seed with whatever they could get. Chapter masters title was the same title that the last non-primarch leader of the rg legion used
I know bricky has way to much of a Nightlord hardon
At 16:00 , bricky was about to give CorpseHusband a run for his money
I'm probably a little late commenting this, but personally whenever I hear "Their origins are unknown and they may be of loyalist or traitor stock" I ALWAYS just assume it's the latter. While the imperium loves to lose documents, there are documents and records dating quite far back to multiple founding chapters. Even if it wasn't a widely known fact, the fact that Space Marines frequently laud their parentage mens that they at least have an idea if not outright know.
The fact that no one knows AND those space marines do not proudly display their heritage suggests that they probably have good reason not to. It's that much of an outlier. Like one of those "Well I wasn't thinking about it until you said something" deals. The fact that even they don't know or won't tell is strange enough that it suggests there's something there.

Well, sharks are literally covered in teeth, which makes their skin abrasive like sandpaper. Rubbery skin would be more like Dolphins.
Also, for some reason, I can't shake the image of a Carcharodon acting like Geralt of Rivia in the Witcher 3 Trailer from my head now.
