I’ve only played the Space Marines and there were no smoking hot Orc gals. wtf?
Thats a Dark Eldar, or Drukhari. You know, the space elves that went so incredibly, interstellar, ballistic with sex and torture that they, uknowingly, created the chaos god Slaanesh which started with this big ass psychic explosion that killed a lot of Eldars. And i mean a lot!
Or if that's your thing, go ahead!
That sounds kinda hot, honestly.
The lifestyle isn't compatible with human Life
Neither is human life. And that don't have big lady to demolish me.
Isn't Drukhari's whole thing is that they fully embrace the tenents of Slaanesh - over the more reserved and secretive Eldar cousins after their great empire collapsed with their excess birthing a chaos god?
If I recall, Drukhari survive by extracting the very essence of another creature's most tormented pain, agony or whatever qualifies as excess.
So they would go out of their way to extract it through cruelty, abuse, torture or whatever achieves the desired response they are looking for and push a person to the extremes into a state that you wish you were dead and then push even further keeping you there on the fine edge to get their fill then, then dispose of the husk once it served it purpose or they got bored with their "toy".
I am only have a passing interest in the universe so I am opened to be corrected on any point if I missed something or misinterpreted
Close, they do everything that a Slaanesh worshipper WOULD do for that essence, but they do it in an attempt to NOT have their souls devoured by Slaanesh for eternity. It staves off Slaanesh for ill-defined reasons, while Slaanesh would greatly prefer voring all of the Dark Eldar's souls en masse.
So it is like they have a "chaos disease" or a "drug addiction" and they do what they do as a means to engage in the high of their excesses while not suffering from all that "chaos corruption" nastiness.
From what I can remember, and I might misremember some tiny stuffs; the chaos god Slaanesh was already kinda forming in the warp. At some point these space elves just got so bored with their lives, as they were very well off, they started to engage in these steadily worsening acts of sex, torture, mutilation etc; they even let it be done to themselves for, you know, a change of pace.
This sudden influx of chaotic energy caused by these deviant acts on an interstellar scale gave Slaanesh such a growthspurt that it instantly got pushed to creation, creating a violent warp/psychic explosion. As the space elves essentially "created" the chaos god they all suffered from this explosion, causing instant death. Only the elves in the webway where spared.
So actually, only a handful of Eldar as a race remain. I think the Dark Eldar learned their lesson now not to over indulge?
That must have been one heck of a warp eruption if the Eldar were considered like, or even greater than, the Imperium of Man in empire size for their entire civilisation to collapse in on itself from their hedonism
Only way I can try comprehend it is if all the humans of the Imperium where pyskers and were linked in real space and then having that link be chaos corrupted to such a degree that it fried their brains with the emotion made manifest.
I guess there must have been enough Eldar survivors that decided to not repeat that mistake and have it engraved in their ideology in pursuit of "purity" and those that saw the chaos, decided that it was meant to be, refused to change and figured out "loopholes" to not suffer the ill effects.
