Most likely it was some form of xenobiologist, but retarded nonsense like that is exactly what I would expect Imperial Nobles get up to when they're too busy not doing weird pervert stuff or mishandling enormous amounts of the Emperor's resources.

Knowing how fucked Imperium governors are that is probably exactly what happened.

I imagine someone decided to run tests on them just for fun.

I imagine Dark Eldars' homonculi trying to inject diverse fluids on human slaves to see what happens, discovering this, and then spreading the world to mess with the humans and the Anfarians

The species was *long* dead before the heresy began, or ended for that matter

Didn't the Diasporex have human slaves?

@@zackcoggins9752 IIRC the Fulgrim novel shows them mostly as a cooperative society, the human element of it was there by choice and when given the chance to join the Imperium and ditch their Xeno allies they declined; at the end of Fulgrim and Ferrus' campaign the Xenos were killed wholesale and the surviving humans sent to compliant planets as slave labor, it's likely that was the first contact the human Diasporex had with that sort of servitude.

@@g.sergiusfidenas6650 - Ah okay. It's been a while since I read Fulgrim. I remembered the humans being not in the best shape and the Primarch reacted negatively to that.

They were xeno loving species traitors. Serves'em right.

In the case of Ferrus, if I remember correctly he offered to allow the humans to live if they forsook their xenos allies, the humans said no, so Ferrus engaged a campaign of annihilation on them. Until he showed up they were doing ok but his philosophy demanded human supremacy and working with xenos went against that.

We have two Primarchs we don't know about. That's certainly a possibility. Another idea I like is that one of the lost Primarchs was raised on a planet that managed to weather the Age of Strife with no external contact, and therefore had a 5000 year old tradition of pacifism.

We would have a third Lost primarch.

​@jesseberg3271 we know a little about them and it's highly unlikely being as we know one fought in the rungdung wars and the other was called the quite one by fulgrum so that is one of the few facts we can state was they didn't rule any xenos races.

Imo the master of the 2nd legion the quiet brother spoke out once against the blind extinction of xenos races and got the only primarch utterly loyal leman to execute him the 11th primarch is probably a withered walking corpse locked away below the imperial palace no longer of use, or is the fabled forgotten proto primarch the other great angel

​@@browniechann88blackie55I don't buy the whole "Russ killed them? theory. Every time he's tried to kill a primarch, he's almost died himself before getting his ass pulled out of the fire, or just wimped out of it. Fulgrim is head and shoulders above him as primarch killer.

They offered to just give their knowledge (which included some INCREDIBLY effective anti-Chaos measures) to them with absolutely zero strings attached. You read that correctly, an alien species was annihilated by the Deathwatch because they offered to hand over their anti-Chaos knowhow without any issues, a fight or any strings attached whatsoever.

@@discountplaguedoctor88that’s stupid

@@discountplaguedoctor88not saying your explanation is, just that the writers should have found a actual reason besides “grimdark”

@@discountplaguedoctor88 Now that's even beyond grimderp.

@@BenjaminIzquierdo-nb6tq Idk why you think that. People who are so full of hate often do braindead stuff like that. Austrian Man during WW2 massively weakened his country's war effort by industrializing his geno.

The tech level probably has something to do with it

The Tau were also ignored when they were just tribal

Yeah, you'd expect that line of logic from the drukhari, but I can see how something like that would happen. After all, xenophobia is rife in the imperium, and no effort is made to temper the hate motivating it. Much like the followers of slaanesh, those who live in hate must resort to greater yet greater acts of savagery in order to satisfy it. It's not unlikely that the first liquefaction was some kind of hate crime. It's only natural in a setting like 40k for such single incidents to result in massive suffering further down the line, as reasons are found to continue perpetuating the cycle of hate, pain, and violence

We got cravings, man.

Makes sense, that was the time in which invention and tecnological advance was still allowed once the task at hand of galactic conquest was finished and some proper resources could be allocated these aliens could hold the key for a new step for humanity, hell, with some luck that could be achieved without too much harm to the xenos themselves.

Basicly they were to be allowed to be left alone, trade and receive imperial protection through military support m. But no one said anything about them being protected from the imperium. Bro most of the time in willing to dunk on the imperium for being idiot's but I legit can not blame them the actual imperium this time around. But the govorners and lowly fiefdoms for screwing over and ignoring imperial law for there own selfish reasons. One of the few time I can separate the individual from the state and thats w huge thing when it comes to the imperium for obvious reasons.

Absolutely none because the imperium was doing it to them. Imperial protection only really lasts as long as your: not a threat and not a problem to deal with now. Or you have something that the imperium needs and once the imperium fixes that issue. Your species is completely redundant and purged.

Serious question, but do they exists? Like i know there are escorts assigned to some craftworlds and temporary truces with the T'au, but alien protectorate? Jokearoo and similar are there, but they are not even citizens and are considered more as pets.

Because farming them would make it much easier for the wider Imperium to learn about this and then the people in charge would get in serious trouble for farming protectorate citizens of the Imperium.

​@@anthonyrodriguez8788except it was the imperium doing it? The whole reason why nobody farmed them was because the demand was that massive that nobody actually thought their source of riches would have dried up as fast as it actually had.

@@brandonhughes4571they were being poached. The Imperium didn’t actually endorse this xenocide.

@@BLANK-pr5qs I've read the excerpt. There's no indication that they were poached. The imperium killed them.

@@brandonhughes4571 then egg on my face.

Why do Imperium fanboys BEG to have Chaos characters killed off when it would make the setting so much less interesting? It’s so weird

@@epicwaba6424I think it’s because said chaos characters like Lucius or Erebus are just so hats or that we want to see them fail or finally get axed in a truly satisfying manner.

@@davidkoudelka10 Someone needs to be the bad guy. They’re good characters and the story would be worse off without them. I just wish they got new models.

@@davidkoudelka10 Also, 40k is hardly a setting where the “good guys” win.

@@epicwaba6424 True, but a setting that’s continuously grimdark with no victories for the “good guys” (I say this as most people are voting for the Imperium to get *some* better conditions) it just becomes a long and depressing slog without payoff. You need to have those little sparks that may build up to a bigger victory over time. We got Guilliman and Lion’el back, so humanity’s odds are looking better.

I imagine they had some some bigger fish to fry than try to protect a bunch of aliens that were of value only in death.

The inquisition didn't exist, nor did the imperium help them because it was the imperium turning them into drugs

Why any time the Imperium is made morally shit some fag inmediatly cry "Grimderp!"

Oddworld reference found

I mean, for one, the Great Crusade could have never been launched. The Birth of Slaneesh was the catalyst for the dispersal of the rather hostile warp storms that were cutting most of the galaxy off.

1. Thrawn is not a human, he's a Chiss 2. Regarding how the Imperium would react to Star Wars aliens with human progenitors they would probably view them as Abhumans, and then slowly kill them off by coming up with excuses as to why they are "actually" disgusting mutants.

@@anthonyrodriguez8788 The actual aliens would be axed that's pretty much a given but for the demi-humans, so long as they get the abhumans title, they'll be fine-ish. Their actual treatment will depend on a lot of factors and is going to be worse than regular humans but it's unlikely they'll be killed off. The one I'm most unsure as for the treatment is the Twileks. On the one hand, they're very aliens looking but on the other, they're potentially naturally submissive (don't remember the source or if it's still canon as I believe it came from Legends) and one constant amongst nobles (and maybe the guards) is that they're horny bastards.

@@JeRefuseDeBienPrononcerBaleine I imagine if the Imperium doesn't wipe out the Twilieks they would treat them almost identically to the Galactic Empire in Disney Canon. with Twilieks the Disney Canon seems to have done away with the idea that they are naturally submissive and instead opt for the idea that the Twilieks are so beaten down by slavers, the drug trade, the Separatists, the Republic, and later the Empire that for the most part their will as people is broken. I imagine the Imperium would probably try turning Ryloth into a pleasure planet with an enslaved Twiliek population used as servants and their people exploited by visiting Imperial Guardsmen as "stress relief" just like the Galactic Empire does in Disney Canon. Of course the Ryloth freedom Fighters are some of the most experienced and well coordinated fighters in the entire galaxy, to the point where their assassination attempt on Palpatine and Vader was even giving Vader trouble, which is extremely impressive because Canon Vader isn't a jobber used as a measure stick for other villains like his Legends counterpart was, Canon Vader is just a force of nature all his own. So any Imperium Governor who gets assigned to Ryloth would have their hands full, assuming they don't get lazy and let their underlings do all the real work while they relax in the lap of luxury.

Depends on time and how the xenos looks and how useful they are.

Makes me wonder what could happen if the world of Oddworld existed in 40k?
