Blue skin = Tzeentch its simple 😅

Holy shit I love this theory

Interesting point, and you have a good voice. But please don't use gay titles

Great video

As a Tau player, I've always been alienated when people say they aren't grimdark. The nuances to them and the fact that you have to look below the surface to find the true horrors is what makes them so interesting to me. Thanks for making this video.

The emperor is a golden deceiver c'tan. Horus was right.

I still hold to the idea that the Tau are a Great Deceiver Plot. It would match up with the Tau's diminished presence in the Warp too which would make them being Warp born odd to me.

I w̶a̶n̶t̶ ̶t̶o̶ believe

Honestly I think some cheeky Eldar were responsible for the creation of the Tau

NOOOOOOO!!!!

The Tau Ethereals are the proof of some manipulator. But the question is who?

Smoking a bowl rn listening to this, feeling like I’m a space wolf astartes listening to tales in a long hall in the middle of the woods with my brothers drinking mead that would get a primarch intoxicated, listening to tales of my brothers and enjoying the crackle of the fire and the howling winds outside, maybe I’ll have to take a leak soon and I shall step outside into the cold elements of fenris

I like your funny words, magic man. Subbed

Former Tau player, I’ve always believed that this was the case since the warp has been proven to well affect the tau differently than other species, their ‘lowered presence’ seems more like an evolutionary trait and we all know how likely that is because of happenstance.

nah rather some kind of space animal farm, all Tau are equal but some are more equal than others..

None of their tech is even remotely warp like and they always fighting chaos I think your reaching here bro

They were the only Primarchs who saw the vision of the Emperor's vision and said no. No chaos, simply said 'Nah, that evil and fought.' Then lost.

Think about this well. They have no soul. Mankind has a soul. My cat has a soul. My guitar has a soul. Angron has a soul even in demon prince form. But some how the tau have no soul, they are like gingers 😂.

Really good video and the music & sound effects are so on point, I feel like most 40 creators miss the mark by having skyrim-esque music playing in the backgrounds while they talk about the grimdark nature of 40k

The theory is creative but only a hand full kinda hold it up and ngl the idea of them being chaos is so lame. What makes the tau interesting is that they don’t have a god and they are hopeful new comers in a jaded galaxy that hates everyone so a faction that breaks the norm is nice. Also the chaos gods would have no way of telling that the tau were even a thing their souls are so small that they don’t appear on the radar for demons. Those tau that went into the warp in the 4th sphere all of them lived because the demons ether didn’t notice them or didn’t care enough to kill them because trying to fuck with a taus soul is more effective then it’s worth. Not to mention that whenever the tau and chaos interact they always fight and the ethreals themselves put any kind of demon on the shoot on sight list

You are asking to many questions. You will be assigned to a re-education camp program. For the Greater Good, of course.

No I don't think so bro. But nice theory craft though.

4 castes each by each CHaos God ruled by consensus of Chaos Undivided? Nicely put, but I think it's simpler than that: we have Orcs (artificial soldiers), Eldar (artificial psychers) so which of 'regular' races are artifical ENGINEERS?

They are blue. Tzeentch had an infinity to pave their path.

9:18 EXACTLY, Jesus Christ, you nail it, I agree 100% with this.

Agreed

Your points fit more with the imperium than the tau

You would think that the heretics saying the throne imitates the Emperor's presence would posit that the sacrificed psykers is the power source for the throne and astronomicon.

EQUALITY FOR THE GREATER GOOD SERVITUDE TO THE TAU'VA

This Voxcast is brought to you by Turning Point Imperialis

😂 but you all know we are the good guys.

As a tau player I like your theory

Great explanation. I can believe it. The only thing I add is that I think the Tau found a working STC. That's how they advanced so quickly.

"Maybe the Tau really are just looking to unify the galaxy under a peaceful regime for a more prosperous future" "For the greater good..." I loved that implication at the end.

You make a very salient argument however it is worth noting that all of your most persuasive arguments apply to the Imperium of Man every bit as much and that's really interesting.

I think it was a cuple of surviving old ones messing around. This is too organised for chaos.

Nah, I am still going with the idea that Szarekh got bored, and simply shut down part of the local pylons after mankind found the planet of his pet project "Necrontyr but with less cancer".

You are wrong, the spirit of the tau is too weak and useless for the chaos to use it or care for it; it would serve chaos more to have the tau eliminated and replaced by humans as humans the the optimal tools to be used. The ethereals are a mystery yet I don’t see them as tools of chaos.

Bro you sounded like a genuine imperial's citizen, xenophobic 🗿

Very interesting, if I might add my own speculation to this creative idea: IF the emperor is the 5th chaos god, the chaos god of ‘order’ or ‘domination’ as some have said- then the chaos storm which formed in M35 has an interesting reading… it mirrors the formation of the Eye of Terror during the birth of Slaanesh. The small size of the storm is explained by the T’aus small presence in the Warp and the cause of the birth would be their civil war. It is worth noting that at this time the Empire was undergoing a schism that split the empire in two, perhaps this is when the Emperor decided to jump ship from humans and find a new species that would unquestioningly obey his will. With this in mind, the Greater Good isn’t a force of Chaos Undivided, but the Dark King spreading his ‘Anathema’ across the galaxy: total Undivided Order.

Forgot to mention the god created in the warp was due to humans being present....

I so enjoy a good rant. Very fun.

great premise. good presentation skills. you've got a future ahead of you. subscriber #137 here.

Nah, good sound effects man, a little distracting but... The Tau have many secondary psionic/psiker species as allies. They would have realized something, in any case it would be the least bad...

WE ALL KNOW SPACE COMUNISTS ARE PURE HERESY, HAIL THE EMPEROR.

Tzeentch minions for sure. The Kroot even more so

This is a great video concept. Man, I believe it.

Ok, why would Chaos Gods make them have such a small warp presence? I could argue that Humanity was made by Tzeetch shooting a magic laser at some random ape. Humanity has a pretty big warp presence and short lifespans which makes them pretty good for feeding chaos tons of souls if these humans were to create a large empire occupying thousands if not millions of planets. We know that humanity is also pretty religious because the first time psykers appeared among them they called them witches. That is not a term secular society would use. What if humanity is the biggest Trojan horse of Chaos or what if the War in Heaven was started by Tzeetch. Tzeetch could have led Necrons to find C'tan and trick the Old Ones to create the Elder to be a certain way. Another thing about Tau. The Ethereals are actively trying to stop the worship of the Tau goddess. If they were Chaos puppets then they would just immediately worship her.

Gotta be some kind of Warp entities, maybe loyalist renegades brought back as imperial saints
