He's not a normal human. He's a genetically engineered bioweapon whose sex drive is rewired for conquest instead.
Didn't Fulgrim have concubines?
No.
He had multiple wives. There's a space wolf, that trickster fellow IIRC, that believes he may have gotten some girls pregnant, because apparently space wolves do have sex.
Fulgrim was obsessed with beauty and aesthetics, Lion isn't.
he did, but he also states they were mostly for political convience, he did care about them and missed a few but he also got used to the fact he outlived all of them, Lion is even less of a peoples person even with his change in views that made him far more considerate of others
fulgrim is gay, in both the literal sense and in the parallel anon is doing regarding conquest-driven instincts.
IIRC those were political marriages back on Chemos well before the Emperor found him
You can just say hes gay
He's not. He's ace.
Thats why he had a 10000 year long break up sulk with cypher?
he's ace, not aromantic
I mean, from a primarch's point of view, human women must look like apes, not to mention that surely there is no woman who can take all the glory of a primarch.
>no woman who can take all the glory of a primarch.

Didn't the emperor pass as a normal guy for most of his life? Why was it suddenly necessary to grow to over four meters tall?
To show that he's in charge, duh. The biggest 'umie is da boss and all that.
>Why was it suddenly necessary to grow to over four meters tall?
To unite all of humanity after the Eldar's turbo-decadence resulted in the birth of Slaanesh he had to become this huge symbol that was larger than life.
He deliberately put up a glamour that resulted in people seeing him that way. Different people saw different things. Some also saw through it to the man underneath. Corax saw what he really looks like, for example, and so did the Sisters of Silence.
>Corax saw what he really looks like, for example, and so did the Sisters of Silence.
And what was it? What does he look like?
I want to know spoon feed me
Regular sized man
Very tired
A guy. He is Human McManson. A human.
My headcanon is he looks like Costanza.
Dress to impress.
Why wouldn't the Emperor give the Primarch's a sexuality? How can they defend humanity without forming a connection to them?
He's not a degenerate coombrain.
Space Marine power armor has built-in flesh lights.
Dilate
What are Dark Angels?
Arthurian knights or Feather Indians?
Or just gays?
They're whatever your money wants them to be!
>Arthurian knights
They're more Knights Templar.
>Or just gays?
That's the deep fluff joke, but there's nothing actually gay about them in universe.
Is your mind really this blown by having more than one influence?
>Arthurian knights or Feather Indians?
The native american thing was from early early warhammer, back when Dark Angels weren't even full on knight themed, chapters mostly didnt have full on themeing and instead their theme came from what world they came from.
A particular squad of Dark Angels in the Space Hulk game were given native american theming because they were recruited from a world with a similar culture.
After 2nd edition they solidified dark angels into being Knights Templar themed and did away with the native american stuff.
Ironically they are Knights Templar since they are secretly israeli. Black Templars are ironically the Teutonic Knights. Imperial Fists are just knights.
The feather indian part comes from a story on how the deathwing picked up the tradition of having bone coloured armour.
There was a guy recruited from a steppe world named Cloudrunner. He got a distress call from his homeworld and
decided to help with some terminators of his squad. They got fricked up by genestealers but later won(his armour was damaged and he went in without it). He then bleached his armour bone colour in memory of them. IIRC he then set his armour down and decided to live amongst his people so the deathwing, (which he was a part of) paints their armour bone to honor their brothers. The feather charms also come from the homeworld of Cloudrunner.
Wait, not even elf pussy?
Maybe he just didn't meet one yet
Guilliman can set him up.
Pretty sure he's literally sterile due to heavy gene modification. Wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't even have a sex drive. The primaries are basically designed to be living weapons.
After a certain age your libido tapers off unless you're a coomer trooner whose libido is just an addiction
>wakes up
>says he's weaker than before
>still beat angron
what fricking bullshit
>anon surprised angron is a jobber
That's his entire character.
The more of these books I read the more I realize almost all the complaints you people make are just completely wrong. You are entirely misrepresenting what happened. Angron was so mad about being cucked out of fighting due to warp fog shenanigans that he literally couldn't consciously think or speak, and was literally about to explode. If the Lion has realized that, he wouldn't have even needed to fight him. That may well have been the lowest we've ever seen Angron.
up
>>says he's weaker than before
beat angron
>what fricking bullshit
It checks out. Angron was never scary to other Primarchs. Curze was an absolute homosexual, but at least he still instilled a certain degree of dread in most Primarchs at the idea of going 1 vs 1 against him. Lion is literally the one who turned that into a 2 months long game of hide and seek.
Angron is such a jobber now that they built a revival mechanic into his rules in the game, because they expect him to die so often. Its actually pathetic.
A running theme is that all the traitor primarchs are just incompetent and stupid as frick in 40k, of course the Lion, even weaker, could beat their asses in.
He got the emps mcguffin and the novel plays out in years. Like it's not a span of two weeks that he gets the risen together and travels half the galaxy lmao.
I sometimes think that most of the anons here are just brainlets and need DBZ level training montages for them to be spelled out.
Primarchs fricking suck and they shouldn't be bringing them back.
The emperor didn't give them genitals. He was too afraid of empire building from within that might challenge his rule and his goals.
>nu41k
Don't care.
't think about pussy, not even once
There'll be time enough for Countin, when the Dealin's Done.
All primarchs are, like most men raised in a military family, completely autistic and think about firearms more often than sex.
Weird projection about your dad but that's not the norm
Why tf do people even like this guy? Like Roboute, I understand. He's the primarch that you like if you have major daddy issues, so you just like the one that is literally just a good masculine role model. If your IRL father is trash, Roboute is your guy.
On the other hand, the Lion is just like... the primarch for if your dad had a beard and was always grumpy about stuff or whatever. Is that literally the appeal? He's the primarch for the people who's Dad's drove 15 year old volvos to the historical re-enactment. People fanboy hard over him, always asking about him.
What is his badass moment compared to Guilliman's walking unprotected through space to decapitate traitor astartes with his bare hands?
Not everyone has daddy issues, anon. Some of us just think death world king arthur is cool.
Who cares, its probably some gay horus heresy shit.
>the primarch for if your
Jesus Christ you absolute Zoomer.
You think anyone who got into DA into the 90s did so because of the Lion? No, we did it because there was sick Asmodai art all over the place, or because we liked painting dark green, or because whatever...
Primarch lore is fine to flesh out stories you grew up with but you are turning this more into Marvel than GW ever did with your "Why would anyone like Cyclop over Wolverine?" bullshit.
>like green
Simple as
The vague interpretation of lore is that Space Marines aren't explicitly infertile, they just don't ever think about sex because they love war so much (until they do think about sex).
Primarchs are even less human than Space Marines, so it's safe to assume they're actually sterile and even more dismissive of sex.
All of 40k is autistic.
I can only assume you're trolling when you ask why some autists prefer autistic character A whilst you yourself prefer autistic character B.
They have both Knights Templar and Arthurian influences.
eg. Lion vs Luther is an inverse Arthur vs Mordred, Lion asleep was Once and Future King
When DA are out teamkilling and secretively hunting Fallen they're leaning into Templar mode.
But at their best and most loyal the are in Arthur mode.
>(until they do think about sex).
You should be careful with those space marines, they are sexual psychopaths over 2 meters tall and on super steroids.
To be fair, they completely changed him from the HH version.
In the Great Crusade and HH, he is THE commander primarch, easily up there with Horus for best commander and could very well have been Warmaster if Horus wasnt given the title, with easily the strongest individual legion. He was all about doing what he believed what right, confident that no matter what rule he broke, it didnt matter because everything he did was out of loyalty to the emperor and mankind.
He SHOULD be the one leading the Indomitus crusade while Gulliman runs the bureaucracy, but GW didnt want to have the lore problem of the Lion just taking over gulliman's job they neutered the frick out of his personality to make him a sulky wandering knight instead of the greatest military commander on the loyalist side.
>they neutered the frick out of his personality to make him a sulky wandering knight instead of the greatest military commander on the loyalist side.
The Lion takes back a planet from a Chaos warband with a single Space Marine and a bunch of ragtag survivors, then bodies a massive Chaos fleet with a significantly inferior force and then just snowballs and starts taking over entire star systems. On the side of the great rift where there is no Astronomican and thus Chaos and xenos run rampant while cut off human settlements can't even communicate, let alone travel. I don't know what the frick you read but the book made him out to be a literal wizard when it came to generalship.
I thought even back in the GC and HH Lion still had his autism that prevented him from becoming Warmaster. Like Lion was absolutely the better fighter and commander and military person, but there was no way that Lion had the charisma to tard wrangle his brothers into doing what he wanted.
The loyalist ones might fall in line and do what he wanted - except the Khan, because Khan does what he wants - but it would be out of hierarchy rather than out of any sense of loyalty or camaraderie.
Horus was better at that than Lion, although not as good as Sanguinius.
The Lion could tard wrangle them, but that would only be a short term solution, long term he would consider it more effective to just do it all himself.
And he probably could do that. But it would inevitably lead to him getting fricked over, because that is what happened on a smaller scale with him.
Not everyone needs to relate to a character due to a weak gay trait they have in common. Lion in the new codex I've read kills two screamer killers and a hive tyrant like he's hunting monsters on Caliban again with the boys. Just imagine your average civilian or guardsman, they see this massive warrior king from the age of myth appear. Lion uses his forest walk ability to haunt imperium Nihilis showing up on worlds demolishing some traitor b***hes with his dark armoured Risen veteran warriors from the Horus heresy and vanishing again without a word, what's not to like you pussy?
He's the primarch for Type A autistic chads who want to play Tywin Lannister on space roids
>who want to play Tywin Lannister on space roids
So Tywin Lannister with a small penis, anger issues, and uncontrollable attraction to trannies?
>Like Roboute, I understand.
Well right now I can appreciate him being the Empire Builder Primarch that has been given the ironic punishment of managing the Imperium circa M42.
If I wake up my first though is "man what a good sleep wish I had time for more" and not "man I need to stick my dick in things"
I like ferrus manus cuz hes dead and his kids are whacko nutjobs with the best aesthetic in the entire galaxy.
Which primarch has the biggest penis?
My first instinct is to say vulken but magnus is giant
I need a fluff expert
Magnus, Ferrus, and Vulkan are the three tallest, in that order. A lot of people think Magnus makes himself bigger with magic, but no, he's just like 16 feet tall even without that. Ferrus is described as being a whole head taller than Vulkan. Just as an aside, a lot of people say Vulkan is also the strongest physically, but when Ferrus fought the Emperor it's said they destroyed mountains in their duel, and later when he gets Forgebreaker it's said to be able to flatten mountains. To get back to your question, if we go off of height you can clearly see the order they should most likely go off of.
Interesting, thank you anon
Now who has the smallest?
And is it the khan?
Methinks Alpharius Omegon.
And what’s your source on this?
That his normal marines can get away with pretend they’re him
primarchs so small they can blend in with their own marines
There's an entire scene in the Imperium Secundus book essentially about Guilliman seething about the Lion being an inch taller than him.
magnus can change his body so he either wins any measurement contest by a wide margin or he is automatically disqualified
vulkan has BBC
fulgrim has slaanesh backing him up
dorn has the Leviathan at his disposal
>vulkan has BBC
bolter b***hes want him for his wiener and nothing but his bald wiener, but all true friends of vulkan love him for his big black heart
Sex is for reproduction, for evolving the species. Perfect being does not have need to evolve, so he has no need for sex either.
>Doesn't think about pussy, not even once
>Explain this bullshit /tg/.
Simple enough. He's a Dark Angel. Obviously he isn't going to think about pussy, being a Dark Angel and therefore gay.
>Make a bunch of superhumans to act as your generals
>Don't want them to even have the ability to replace baseline humanity and a sex drive would be a distraction from galactic conquest and empire building anyway
>Galaxy status: Probably fricked beyond any hope of repair
>Why didn't Lion immediately hire a prostitute after his 10k year absence?
He's gay and a pedophile (redundant, I know)
Thinking about pussy is feeble mortal weakness like waking up and thinking oh no im really hungry guys, doesn't make for interesting reading. Why this obsession with relationships and cooming? its childish behaviour. Lion El'Jonson a genetically engineered killing machine genius crafted from the emperor's genes and science and your concerned if hes horny? Why aren't you saying why doesn't the emperor think about pussy bro, god the Emperor must really want to coom hard. So stupid.
>Why aren't you saying why doesn't the emperor think about pussy bro, god the Emperor must really want to coom hard
The emperor consumes thousands of pussies a day, plus he has the power to see the SoB bathing whenever he wants.
How does he shit?
No seriously, he would need a custom toilet since he's so huge, which I'm sure the Imperium doesn't have.
Does he go to The Forest to take a shit?
>which I'm sure the Imperium doesn't have.
why not, I'm sure you could find a lot of planetary governors who would gladly put their entire industrial capacity to creating one if it meant pleasing the Primarch.
Why is Lion suddenly this nice guy in the book?
1. He's horrified
2. He realized his legion didn't betray him
3. He realized he hasn't been branded a traitor
4. He realized he's not alone
5. He already worked through his grief pre-Heresy when he stabbed Russ
And ultimately, he realizes his brashness, such as giving Peter Turbo those siege cannons, is his biggest flaw.
Does Lion feel bad about giving Perturabo all those weapons?
Yes. It's also a very unfortunate event altogether
>Perturabo finally receives acknowledgment and from The Lion no less, but he goes through the heresy anyway, despite being perfectly positioned to nip it in the bud
>Lion finally chooses to trust someone only for it to have unfathomably horrific consequences
>the Lion always respected Perty, he just never said so because he thought what Perty was doing was obvious
It's nine different levels of comedic.
I always felt the Lion being more present might very well have led to Pert and Magnus not going traitor.
The only thing that would have stopped Magnus fricking up is the Emperor literally babysitting him the entire Crusade, Nikaea, and then taking Magnus back to Terra with him.
If Pertgays are to be believed, Perturabo single-handedly carried the Heresy to Terra on his gigantic iron dick.
Pertard was definitely the MVP but Horus was obviously the mastermind and prepared the field long before he openly rebelled. Mortarion was reliable which was plenty and led the spear tip. Curze straight-up pinned the three strongest loyalist legions in place and nearly kept them out of the war entirely. Lorgar obviously started the whole thing, and Magnus allowed them to bypass most of Dorn's Sol System defenses with warp bullshit. Really, only Angron and Fulgrim did more harm than good. And Alpharius with his plans within plans within plans.
On the other hand, Lion would absolutely not hesitate to purge a Legion if it gets out of hand, so rather than a massive rebellion we would have probably had Angron or Curze finally chimping out and getting BTFO, maybe Lorgar as well. Pertard and Mortarion would quickly fall in line the second they saw there were actual and immediate consequences for any bullshit.
truth
He's an adult man from a society that wasn't engineered by childless spinsters to be as mentally ill and feminized as possible, so he's not a degenerate cumbrain.
't think about pussy, not even once
See
Or perhaps it's easier to say in worlds where people aren't told sex is the only reason for existence, they work on their actual career and sex just happens along the way as a sidenote.
>Lion believes everything the Fallen tell him at face value
Explain this bullshit /tg/.
He always had the ability to detect lies, if someone lies to him he will simply kill them.
Ok fine. What about the wounded King in the Forest? Why can't Lion figure out it is The Emperor?
Has anyone actually seen the true form of the emperor?
The last time Lion saw his father, he was 4 meters tall and brimming with power.
The Lion was always before able to see through some of the glamour of the Emperor. The Wounded King, he cannot determine enough about.
In the first 2 BL DA books there were a few moments that I thought genuinely hinted at him being able to straight up read people's mind (him forgiving the attack on the Emp by the DA/him suddenly growing suspicious of Luther at the exact moment Luther decides to sneak in a nuke). I thought it might have explained both why he is so secretive and so quick to dismiss people but ultimately I was reading too much into it apparently.
Are all the Primarch's latent Psykers (as they are partial creations of the warp)? Ie is Lion's forest walking a manifestation of this power?
Gulliman doesn't appear to have any superpowers though (in HH and 40K).
>Are all the Primarch's latent Psykers
In some ways most are supposed to have some small part of the Emp's power, but many don't ever display it. In the Lion's case its mentioned he himself doesn't believe he has any power but he appears to have the Emp's ability to dominate pretty much anyone, in one case he reflexively made Horus and a whole bunch of others bend the knee just by walking in the room, to their own surprise. I think its mentioned also a couple of times that he was the only one who could see the Emp's true form, but I'm not sure.
The Forestwalking is not related to his powers however, that seems to be something he inherited entirely from Caliban/the Watchers.
You should look at the life of the IRL Lionel Johnson
It will never stop being funny to me how these homosexual space marines are stuck in those cuck cages with only their tiny heads sticking out
Not the expert here, but was the emperor mentioned previously as having a shield? The HH era art depicts him as always wielding a claw and sword.
No.
In case you haven't read the novel, it's heavily implied that the Lion is a warp entity of unimaginable power. He uses 'the forest' (the warp) to travel between planets, woke up in 'the forest', and has been summoning weapons through warp trickery. As such, his equipment may be a total fabrication of what other people remember him or the emps to be. His presence may have something to do with the deal the Emperor struck with the old four. Maybe the Lion is part daemon, part human. We simply don't know.
I mean, that's probably true of all of the Primarchs.
Like, have you seen what Corax is like in his hunt for Lorgar?
Does that mean even the non-Daemon Primarch's have true names?
They always have, iirc
The Emperor has that pectoral shield next to his left arm in some art which is what the Lion has. I'm not sure, but I think real knights had them to deflect jousting blows more easily.
That's how overrated women are.
>So, err, Mr The Johnson, do you ever get lonely?
>Frick off, Servitor, I'm catching up on years of series
>Lionel Johnson
>The gay poem
>the rock is a gay bar
I wonder why.
For those who read the book, is the Fallen character who refuses to take his armor off supposed to be somebody from HH?
All of the Fallen originated from the destruction of Caliban during the Horsey Heresy.
Uh sorry my bad, is he somebody famous from the books?
They never talk about it.
What little we know about the Fallen is that they were cast through the warp after the destruction of Caliban. Some are chaos followers, others are just outcast marines who decide to follow the Lion. A non-insignificant amount are tainted by chaos in some way, which could be why he hides his identity.
>What little we know about the Fallen is that they were cast through the warp after the destruction of Caliban. Some are chaos followers.

Who is Cypher?
What's his end game?
Is there a more Noblebright black library book than ‘Son of the Forest’?
>my space marines need to have sexo it's so realistic and dark and mature
Meanwhile, human shit plays an integral role in everyday life, and yet 99.99% the black library novels skip over such an important facet. Not everyone has sex in the imperium, but everyone shits.
Somebody earlier in this thread already asked about whether the Primarchs need to shit.
>Wakes up
>Can suddenly teleport
Frick GW
Were the two Fallen in this book, Baelor and Seraphax, gay for one another (literally)? Doesn’t feel very Space Marine to kiss and touch each others faces especially when you are about to die. Mike Brooks also identifies as LGBTQ.

>Explain this bullshit /tg/.
Lion is a Knight, whose day to day had been around the themes of chivalry and celibacy.
