There’s an awful gremlin tormenting me 🎉

Thank you to Factor for sponsoring this video.

These story hours make me miss running a Dark Heresy campaign, which I ran trying not to use known 40k lore

Are you a fan of desk/bookshelf sized Warhammer statues? I’m a 3D modeler and printer I have a bunch depending on your favorite race or what ever

I watched your stupid ads, I hope you're happy.

Same here

Well of course I know him! It's me!

@@andrewsmisek8341 without giving to much away… When the ships are leaving and he’s doing his “thing” has to be one of the best suspenseful scenes I could’ve imagined. If you haven’t heard that part on audible they do it so well that I end up recommending the audio book to everyone. 😅

To be fair I give your mum the same instructions

​​@@mcspudoh thats why your father never come back

@@mcspud Can you also give my mum those same instructions please

I was in the Army for 14 years and you just summed it all up

I thought of a story where so little information is provided that the crew don’t know where to go what to do or that there even exists a mission to begin with……or so much information that they refuse the mission after the one offering blatantly explains everything that happened there and what would befall them….. …….im funny

Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well.

Here I thought they stumbled on a C'tan shard.

Holt mother of red(green) herring

I got the same vibes. Maybe it's some necron artifact on the asteroid that causes madness for whatever reason.

nah that astroid just had a hoard of warpstone

​@@desperado3236 Might be some mental wave that it uses to deterr folk from being around it for too long, and if they remain too long around it, well, this happens. Then, (maybe) handful of scarabs go to the station, repair any sign of damage. Though honestly, it could be purely warp related. Chaos can force their ways into the material plane, but it is extremely taxing and difficult. Much easier to have someone "invite" them in/accept an invitation. In this case, it probably was the guy taking the picture, i.e. he accepts the "deal" that everything that happens here is outside the gaze of the emperor. See, as chaotic as the warp is, it is bound by lot of extremely restrictive "rules". Sure, those rules can be broken, but it tends to be very taxing on the warp native (though the amount of difficulty can correlate to how restrictive said rule is) Since this being that is "enticing" these people is only requiring a minor "agreement" my hypothesis is that someone made a deal/contract with a decently cunning deamon or warp entity to protect that asteroid. It was probably pretty win-win situation. The deamon keeps an eye on the place and makes sure it doesn't get tampered with too much, and it can eat all the unfortunate souls (that were around for too long) and their emotions as it wanted. That is my feeling about this at least. My hypothesis? It is probably a warp entity rather than a deamon bound to any of the factions. Unlike how the tabletop may paint things out, the deamons of the 4 factions merely take up a small piece of the river of souls. The most probable answer by my estimate? It is a dangerous necron artifact that an eldar of the old times (could be relatively recent, but I really doubt it) put up countermeasures for so no lesser species would mess with it. So an eldar of the old times likely either created or made a deal with a spirit of sorts to make sure to keep any unwanted folk away. Eldars would immediately notice the signs of their own kin and thus would avoid it, but the lesser species would be properly punished. How's that sound?

Any other ideas was the corpse real?

​@@craigdonovan5068that's the emperor himself briefly appearing, he has been rotting for ten thousand years after all

@@samaeldisharmony8028 Ugh somehow I smelled it

It's implied that it's the picture but I don't think so. It's actually something on that asteroid their mining. The whole corpse thing and sound is a hallucination borne from whatever madness is afflicted on them by being on the roid. The scratched out eyes emperor is simply a red herring; Something left over from previous crew, who also went crazy and scratched the eyes out. A harbinger of things to come. The reason elun sees toyne is because of his guilt of her death. This is how I understood it at least.

@@desperado3236 Warhammer 40,000 being what it is, actual demonic possession and hauntings are in fact not just possible, but a fairly common - if little talked about - danger for spacers and voidsmen.

Fr, most horror stories can be helped by simple communication, but it seems like he is in a state of psychosis so his thinking was prob impaired.

If the cast in horror acted smart, we would not have the stories.

@@ethanor It is actually a very clever way to get people invested in your story. All the "i would've done this and that instead" conversations are good for building a community and getting the word out of the original story. Fan speculation is great. It is one of the reasons why Mary Sue is a negative thing when it comes to stories and the characters in them. It leaves no room for people to self-insert.

​@@arkosilaura Well, he's not expected to know what to do all the time, but he should not ignore basic reasoning. Why lie to your medic, why make up that you don't hear it anymore? What's the harm in just telling the truth? When a character in a horror is dumb and ignores the obvious choice, it's not endearing, it's frustrating. It doesn't help viewers self-insert, quite the opposite, I'd say

@@AxolotlInMC My assumption as for why he behaved the way he did is because he is a former ganger. He instinctively tries to avoid saying anything that would show him to be weak in any way. In a gang in an underhive, such a thing would get him torn apart immediately. Also: Remember that the only drive of the people he leads is money. If they think he isn't able to lead them to money anymore, or that they can overpower him and try their own ideas at leading themselves to money, they will get rid of him... and they wont keep a betrayed leader around. He'd be vented.

That’s really how the 40k universe is written

That's the dice roll of Warhammer. Sometimes you are just chilling on your chill lil agriworld, and then sometimes space splits open, its raining blood, and your bones are dry.

Sometimes you're born on an agri-world. Sometimes you're born on Necromunda. We do a little bit of shade around here. 😆

Dont worry much about how you come off, you are anonymous afterall

Welcome to Warhammer 40k. Some people have it nice, some people don't. It's a hellish universe

lol this is 40k if you made that announcement chances are you would be deemed a heretic and killed.

Lol no denying that

@@HebrewHammer1337 rather executed fast than driven to madness and THEN executing myself.

@@Elmithianas a very sane a pious sister of battle once said: "it's better to die for the emperor that to live for yourself" or in this case... "to be sacrificed for something else"

I agree with a lot of what you said. It's the brutality of the universe that draws me to it. It's not horror like we think of typically, but a horror of grotesque and mutilation of the mind, body, and soul. The horrors are eldritch level gods and creatures, and absolutely, the universe reflects that onto itself, always adapting and one upping the last. So far, I've only played the Vermintides and Darktide, and I am currently trying to figure out where to start reading. It is so expansive that I really don't know where to start.

DW. The series is going to be absolute garbage (already starting with the rings of power treatment) and thus deny any further adaptions of 40k for the next 10-20 years. Yay :)

Refreshing was a blessing

Never heard of Vox in the void before you mentioned it here. Now that, was some damn good story telling. Im not a fan of lamenters but damn does he do those stories justice. Fangs out was another amazing one

I like (and am creeped out by) your interpretation!

I suppose it's a matter of personal taste, I really enjoy these kind of stories, the ones with literally nothing to work with, which in turn gives ample room to theorize and analyze each and every hint that were given. Each time I read or listen to one of these stories, especially in the 40K or Warhammer Fantasy setting, I mentally roleplay as an Inquisitor or Witch Hunter and try to explain it via in-universe info, then make overtly conservative conclusions (in this case, just a feral xenos creature gnawing on random bits in the facility, mixed with stress and fatigue from the miners, which caused them to hallucinate and give into madness) while at the same time prescribing overtly radical courses of follow-up action (in this case, termination of the mining crew as they have all been touched by madness, and are more than likely to all be heretics due to the discovery of the defaced picture).

Agreed, keep it vague but if you dont even give me an idea of wtf is going on i just stop giving a shit about the story, like theres 0 pay off to it all and makes the whole thing feel like a massive waste of time

Some cursed relic which kills the crew? How and why will never be known.

I've felt like that with some stories but I didn't really feel that with this one, maybe weshammer's ability to tell stories carried this

@@GayDemonWarlord Warhammer is so vague most of the time. Wes carries all the stories 😂

Overpriced, small portions

The God Emperor of Mankind with his Gene-writers remade mankind in order to conquer the stars. He remade the entire foundation of humanity to be tougher stronger and flexible to the rules and laws of the universe and half his damn sons did the human thing and stabbed him.

It's not just a cooling problem, it's a balancing problem between heating and cooling. All matter radiates heat in the form of infrared light, and in space, that light just goes off into the void. If you're in the shade, you're constantly losing energy through thermal waste and getting basically zero back. The reason astronauts struggle with overheating is because their suit acts as an insulator; the warm inside reflecting the heat back while the cold outside radiates very little heat. But in direct exposure, space is frigid, it's just very slow to freeze you since there's no atmosphere to sap your heat, just your own ambient loss.

@@themather1 the amount of energy you are losing by radiation is way less than the amounts that your body produces.

Interesting, I did not know these things

if ur going to correct you might as well say space is not populated with orks ,chaos gods and astartes ... oh and I am the emperor

I feel you for being a warhammer fan ❤

Indeed that is a great setting for some really scary stories

strong username

Rest well, hope you get better soon. Trust in the Emperor to beat back Nurgle!

Get well soon!

Yeah the story definitely implies it's the picture causing things but I think it's something on the asteroid and the picture is just a symbol of the madness to come. An unintentional warning left over from a previous miner who created it in his madness before suffering the same fate. That's how I see it anyway.

@@desperado3236 it could be both for all we know. Maybe it inhabits the asteroid and uses the picture to spread its influence like a rat carrying a plague

I take it more as this. The Emporer is the head of humanity, the savior, and the reason to push on through the grim dark. Your entire life, you believe with all your being that the Emporer is watching over his flock. However, something truly horrific was happening here. Any who bore witness would surely question their faith, probably feeling alone and abandoned by their god king. Any image of him would soon become a falsehood, a liar, and a thief of belief. Somebody likely gouged the eyes in a last-ditch middle finger to the man that wouldn't save them.

I hope your next day is better, Brother!

Heresy guarantees death yk?

Maybe the doc looked at it too and didn't say anything?

it only spreads if other people touch it

The entire previous crew vanished, and it seems unlikely that they all took turns holding the photo. So, I think that once someone starts the haunting(?) everyone gets screwed eventually.
