For suggestions regarding the army list one of the components that I've come up with would be the Umbris Inquietari which is latin for haunted armour. These would be a parody to the rubric marines but for every person they kill they absorb the best skills they've developed over life and the rest is used as a sort of fuel.

For me the word would be Horror since Omegon intended the Emperor to become the saviour of humanity the beauty if you will the yellow king would the horror of what the emperor had to do.

I really want to kitbash whatever the army list for the Blasphemous is. Ruin Marines? Daemons of Industrialism and Autocracy? Maybe a Daemon Prince? Daemons of Order maybe? Annihilation/genocide cultists? Really curious what direction it's going.

Now this may sound weird for a title, but hear me out:

Morning Star

The brightest light that not only draws the weary towards it, but also overpowers all but the strongest of wills, while also having a yawning darkness that seeks to swallow the stars themselves and spit them out warped and twisted to reflect its own image. It is the combination of the two views that the universe holds on the Emperor in all its unmentionable glory. Whatever title it chooses shall be twisted and warped as itself.

Can’t wait to see the Tau. I hope they beaten up or worse.

Oh wow, you've really outdone yourself with this one, well done. I'm really looking forward to the Imperium's reaction to the Yellow King once his nature invariably becomes widely known. The Ecclesiarchy in particular is going to experience interesting times, I suspect.

Also, a potential title for the Yellow King you might find fitting would be Demiurge, a name used in some types of Gnosticsm for the creator god of the material world, who is supposed to be the "evil counterpart" to the "true" god.

This was a perfect chapter for Halloween! Bravo, Zahariel!

So I’ve read a lot of the suggestions about what the Yellow King’s nature should besummed up in one word of courseand while I do like the idea of anathema, the other one I would go for would be:

Duality.

I mean, yes, it’s technically blasphemy against all that the the Emperor taught and was, but that part he casted off at the Tower of Babel? That’s still him. It’s been warped and festering to the point where you could say it’s not him, but it’s still a part of him, even by the barest of threads. It also fits into the idea that the Emperor was seen as benevolent by his people, but to other ninety-nine percent of the universe out there? It’s two sides of the same coin. A benevolent figure and a nightmarish conqueror.

Wow ok so towards the end there I was sure you were gonna go full meta and have the Yellow King speaking to us the reader.

I was also convinced that it was going to be the Cannon God Emperor.

Great chapter as always and I keenly await the next.

God damn what an amazing chapter! I was on the edge of my seat with the suspense end the foreshadowed showdown(or I though it was gonna be one) between Eisenhorn and the Yellow King. My favorite aspect of this story over all is you don't hesitate to give unanimous defeats to the Imperium which adds real tension to the setting. The other thing I love is you give multiple warring factions presence and threat that are all not just one united front. Feels very much like a true End Times caused by Chaos.(Vulkan essentially being this AU's version of Nagash, Corax, Dorn seeking Guilliman for revenge for his schemes, the new faction following the Yellow King. Absolutely love this story.

Firstly let me say that this revealed floored me and had me reeling. When I got to the revelation on what It is it felt like something of cosmic Horror was approaching and I immediately knew it needed to die. The Yellow king is perhaps the greatest monstrosity to have been birthed in the wake of Light’s End and I do not know if it can even be bested. Even worse you can feel the sheer magnitude of the threat when Corax of all people sends one of his best to slay it at perhaps the most pivotal moment; yet it was in vain.

It had been planning this since… the day it split at the tower of Babble would be the best way to put it. Worse still is the possibility that arises. It fed on the Imperium’s sins and those sins will continue to pill up feeding it even more and without the Emperor himself to counter it.

I’ve been thinking of what word could ascribe to the Yellow king and blasphemy does work, it is a twisted mirror of the master of mankind but Maybe also eternity or inevitability

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

to say my jaw was on the floor repeatedly doesn't come close to expressing the emotions you've put me through you mad terrible genius you.

I always had a feeling that the Yellow King was an embodiment of the God-Emperor if He was evil, the malevolent counterpart of the Star Child, but to actually SEE this truth confirmed, and to have the Yellow King explain the ramifications Himself...it was chilling on a whole another level, and a perfect way to wrap up Halloween.

And how ironic that Nykona Sharrowkyn, a champion of the most evil Traitor Legion in the entire Roboutian Heresy, was THIS CLOSE to killing the Yellow King at the moment of his birth, and by extension committing one of the greatest acts of good possible for this universe. How unfortunate for everyone that he failed...

And speaking of evil Traitor Legion, does Corax already know the truth about the Yellow King's true nature? Or is he going to flip his shit when he learns that he was unwittingly and unknowingly serving a malevolent aspect of the very Emperor that he so thoroughly despised?

I smell Tolkien, the Bible, and a lot of caffeine. masterful as always.
