I am The Remembrancer.
It is my duty to retell the stories and chronicles of the glorious Imperium of Mankind.
Via voxlink and transmission I shall send my tales through the Warp in the hopes that the Imperium might hear of it's forgotten histories and Remember it's sacred past.
For in the grim darkness of the far future there is only War.

It wasn't his monologing that allowed G-man to tear one of his hearts, but the fact, that he wanted to corrupt him. If he wanted to kill him, he would have done so. Regardless it was out-right forbidden by the chaos gods to kill the G-man even to Lorgar, because in his last moments, Guliman would have ordered all forces to make haste to Terra and the war would surely be lost.

@krel3358 Жыл бұрын
I think part of the issue is the chaos gods deliberately chose certain planets to warp the development of the primarch's psyche so that a heresy was inevitable due to the Emperor being unable to relate to or dedicate resources to stopping them. Functionally The Gods used a narcisisstic double bind or catch 22 to force the Emperor into a no win situation where everyone would perceive him as a jerk for trying his best to triage the situation so humanity would not go extinct and in that the Emperor was successful at the steepest of costs. Be that as it may I think given that Lorgar was a primarch obsessed with faith I think the Emperor should have definately forseen his fall to chaos or maybe employed his Custodes as psycho therapists for the more broken or wayward primarchs.

@@R0230Rboth are very scummy. Erebus is the architect of the Horus Heresy, but Kor Phaeron’s role in corrupting Lorgar began from the very beginning, way before Erebus. He would sow the seeds from the onset of meeting Lorgar, and would twist Lorgar over and over again, especially after Monarchia. Kor Phaeron, in this sense, is as evil as Erebus

@@thelegittaco974 I didn't deny that they're "scummy", just that Erebus fits more to the unrelatable and 'alien'=inhuman characteristics compared to Kor Phaeron from what we got out of his backstory. Erebus was always devoid of any semblance of humanity, while again; Kor was pretty much fortunate to be the one to find the one Primarch that was the most susceptible to what's basically Stockholm syndrome. he was never what one call powerful or charismatic, just lucky.

@@R0230R but doesn’t that make Kor Phaeron as inhumane and devoid of humanity too, in a way? He was lucky to find Lorgar, exploited him, abused him, and now Lorgar has Stockholm, he gets lucky, and when Lorgar is at his lowest, he takes advantage of it to make him serve his whims. You’re right, Erebus is more unrelatable in how devilish he is, but I don’t think Kor Phaeron is just lucky. He is not charismatic, but he is devious and very manipulative
@heeman1203 Жыл бұрын
Its a shame Kor gets overshadowed by both Erebus in the eyes of the fandom in terms of hate and responsibility for the heresy. When Really he's just as responsible as him. Like Erebus he too remained a chaos worshiper in private even after joining the legions and like Erebus he too was basically following Lorgars orders after both of them convinced him to join Chaos (I imagine the reason Lorgar is considered "the first heretic" is because in order to be a heretic you need to be a loyalist first which neither of them were). This probably has something to do Erebus appearing in the book series first.

I would like to see Erebus have an other epic plan going and get it taken out from under him by Kharn at the last second. Can't kill Erebus... I love to hate him. He needs to kill Drogo first and the few other poorly written OP Mary Sue's. I always love how Erebus slips away honestly after doing something we all hate. Kor Phaeron is an attention whore baron. Have the hybrid stripped of his armor and thrown off the pages never to be written about again. Literally and metaphorically that would be the best death for such a poorly written character.
@bloodkip9462 5 ай бұрын
People really sleep on how busted Erebus and Kor are. Erebus has at will summoned 4 greater daemons like it was nothing and killed Erda. Kor with a bit of time was able to store about enough warp juice to paralyze a primarch and could have easily killed him if he didn't try to turn him instead. It's now been like 1200 years since and Kor and Erebus are still sane (relatively speaking) well Kharn is just a crazy man now who's died multiple times since.

At lorgar as he rushed to protect his sons being slaughtered by Corvus...then saved from the killing blow by The night haunter. Kor did have balls tho, walking around missing a heart from Bobby G punching him...he survived to establish a safe haven in the eye. Sor telron was melted and in hell and lorgar brought him back...then became a dreadnought the warmonger. Badass. Lorgar had some balls to but his ego got too big.

False: as all other Traitor Legions, the Word Bearers were basically annihilated and split in warbands competing for survival. They divided in sects led by various Dark Apostles and Cardinals, much likely excommunicating each other in the process. With Lorgar nowhere to be found, hiding with a good reason. Two reasons, more precisely. One is Guilliman, who swore to gut him like a fish, and almost succeded on Nuceria. The other is Corax, who's actively stalking him in the Eye of Terror to settle the score with the events of Istvaan V. I'd say that Lorgar's days are clearly numbered.
