Perfectionism, artisanry, avarice, avidity, vainglory, paramountcy and Indolency.
Basic anything that's about the finer things in life, perfectionism and vainity and you've got the idea
Self mutilation was lucius' thing, and one of the Honsou shorts had a slaaneshi dueling champion who enjoyed the pain of the wounds he took.
Does circumcision empower Slaanesh?
No that's the domain of Yahweh, chaos god of theft and greed.
Narcissism and greed
Vainglory, specifically, in Sigvald's case. Among the followers of Slaanesh he's viewed as something of a folk saint of that particular vice.
Avidity, Gluttony, Carnality, Paramountcy, Vainglory and Indolency
Being really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really in to model trains.
>slaaneshi champion of chaos who physically shrinks everyone he beats to put them onto a model set so he can have a functional mini city to watch for hours
>doesn't even pull the simcity and go godzilla on it or glaze them and brutally punishes anyone who tries to do so he just wants to watch his Armageddon PL Ferrus Class unload a herd of grox to the meat packing plant with a real mekboy as the engineer
>giant gay trying to sneak their fetish in
many such cases..
I assure you, it is not
Hell, recently any significant size difference has been starting to make me irrationally angry.
Regardless, there has to be a reason why he'd actually be some form of threat, a reason why you'd see him actually interacting with the world at large otherwise there's no damn point to him. That slaanesh adores his single-minded obsession isn't enough to achieve any importance and the point is to actually have characters with different motivations rather than dudes in the background who get one paragraph.
So, almost halfway to the point of hardcore train modelers?
Sensory Deprivation. There was a exerpt in a AoS book about a dawnbringer crusade having to rationing food and they went slanneshi when becoming proud of with how little they can surive.
Sounds moronic
Slaanesh gets every deadly sin except wrath. Gluttony and lust are just 2 out of those six, but are also the easiest to notice since the person will be naked or fat.
>except wrath
Excessive wrath empowers Slaanesh as well. There’s a reason x/s/he/it is potentially the strongest god. Their domain will always be encompassed by the greatest champions of the other gods due to the fact that chaos is the biggest MLM scheme ever and you never stop grinding
Yeah okay
>slaanesh is the strongest because if you're too autistic about magic you're actually slaaneshi!
>but magic itself is all tzeentch and therefore tzeentch is actually slaanesh
>but if you're mad as frick about magic you're actually khorne so he is actually the strongest
>but really when you think about it everyone poops, so nurgle is the strongest
They're all the 'strongest' when playing moronic powerlevel games.
Slaanesh is quite prone to vindictive rage when he doesn't get his way/or is otherwise displeased
Noise marines are on a never ending journey to create the heaviest music possible, mind you their weapons which are more like instruments are already loud enough to tear humans apart on a molecular levels
Painbringers and Twinsouls are two excessive sides of the same horseshoe, with former being obsessed with perfecting one specific sword+shield fighting style to a 1:1 perfection and latter wanting to be special snowflakes that fight with random impractical weapons. Additionally Pains cover their faces to blend into the collective while Twins not only show themselves, but disfigure themselves to be more unique
torture, murder, drugs, heavy metal
Being really autistic about tabletop games
Imagine a Slaaneahi Daemon Prince so into /tg/s he can turn his and enemy soldiers into sentient miniatures, and then beat all enemies using wargame rules
Sex as it might pertain to Slaanesh very rarely comes up in published material, really. Let alone in the models. Plenty comes up that pertains to themes of pride, vanity, smoking magical pot and wearing purple silk.
>themes of excess
accumulation of objects including of people (slaves, lovers, harems, anything) or titles of office or awards and attachments to anything you can possibly imagine.
Hoarders, overachievers with egos the size of the galaxy, this is mine this is mine and this as well and everything petty and insane of this type.
But gluttony and lust are the two foundational pillars let us say.
One theme of excess can be excessively lazy.
Imagine becoming a Daemon Prince simply by virtue of being the laziest person in the world.
What would the lazy Demon Prince even do?
Corrupt all around him into a general malaise until they starve to death
Abso. Lutely. Nothing.
That's the point.
His body becomes a massive amoebs, so he's always comfy lying and doing nothing absolutely anywhere.
Imagine relaxing across all possible realities and dimensions... Just, doing nothing throughout all time and space... Imagine...
>His body becomes a massive amoebs, so he's always comfy lying and doing nothing absolutely anywhere.
...Like some kind of slime creature?
Check the origins of the noise marines.
>blue haired cougar put on a dress with cleavage down to her pubis and threw an avant-garde rock concert for a bunch of roided eunuchs
For inspiration, you should look into the Demiurges of Kill Six Billion Demons, especially Mother Om. She's pure excess.
The son of a Burgle Champion and a Slaanesh Champion whose whole shtick is weaponing his scat fetish and commanding Shit Golems.
>muh "perfection" whatever that means
>muh pg13 themes
anything that isn't militant degeneracy isnt really slaanesh
Name a verb. That can be taken to Slaaneshi levels of excess.
>Name a verb. That can be taken to Slaaneshi levels of excess.
Wholesomeness?
By definition yes. Anything can be taken to Slaaneshi levels of excess. What 'wholesomeness' looks like taken to that level, I have no idea.
In some old piece of WHFB lore it is said that the other three Chaos Gods are scare of Slaaneshi secretly. This is because each of their excesses will eventually empower the Dark Prince of Chaos.
Wholesomeness is a noun according to the OED, technically.
>Wholesomeness is a noun according to the OED, technically.
But Wholesome is a verb, right?
Sorry, adjective.
>Sorry, adjective.
DAM U ANGLISH LANGAUGE!
It's more three kobolds in a trench coat than a language, to be fair.
Wholesomely would be the verb form, but that doesn't really fit too well.
Wholesomely is adverb (like "slowly").
Frick, you're right.
As I said, three kobolds in a trench coat.
Wholesomize?
Combat drugs. Perfume aura buffs. Benifits to killing a unit to show them eat it. Self inflicted pain for buffs. Slow motion barriers as terrain. Opium den bunker with healing and possibly overdose chance.
There's loads of things they could do
Entertainment
If everybody in the galaxy nofapped for a few months would it kill Slaanesh?
It would more likely empower slaanesh.
Wealth. Gold, gemstones and such.
Slaanesh is also the god of pain so you could make an army of flayed warriors or something
Slaanesh has a bunch of stuff they could go into like each of her circles of hell
>Greed
>Gluttony
>Sex
>Pride
>Inferiority/Fraud
>Sloth
drugs, dance, violence
I always love the idea of super pious slaaneshi champions that are basically zealots. Excessive fervor towards the dark god themself, the wost elements of the inquisition and puritanism coupled with ritualistic self mutilation and sacrifice.
