b1soul Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 which Chaos god would they worship? Would they worship a single god? Would they be more Chaos Undivided or even more Chaos-rejecting like the Black Legion or certain elements of the Night Lords? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhorneFlakes Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Khorne jumps out and gets me. Being based on the Mongol tribes who were very bloodthirsty it would make sense. Interesting point with the rejection of chaos though... I don't know enough about the legion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Loss Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 This topic seems to be aimed more towards 40k CSM than 30k Traitors I could imagine them going Undivided or Tzeentchian had they gone Traitor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
depthcharge12 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Undivided most likely...but as they resent a true authority other than one that can kick their butt, I'd like to think they'd see Chaos as just another Tyrant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazryonh Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Khorne, most likely. After all, isn't Doombreed (the first Daemon Prince to be raised from a human) actually an ascended Genghis Khan, the White Scar's spiritual ancestor? Slaanesh might be another candidate, since the Emperor's Children like Fast Attack as well, just in different ways, but less likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatOneMarshal Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Maybe slaanesh. They live life in the fast lane also pleasure in bikes. Most likely undivided or khorne though. Also wouldn't this make more since in the scars board or chaos board? 30k scars couldn't be too different than 40k scars right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that's how they align in the Dornian Heresy...but it doesn't strike me as that convincing. Yes, in Xanadu, Kublai Khan has a stately "pleasure dome" and all that jazz...but the Scars don't seem to be particularly hedonistic. I suppose you could say speed and wild, fast combat gives them great pleasure. That would be an interesting angle to explore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athrawes Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Obviously the answer is Malal. The Chaos god of Anarchy, he is also known as the Outcast God and if that doesn't just fit the Scars neatly I don't know what does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyMonkey Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Need for Speed among the White Scars could be a reason to fall to Slaanesh. After all, that's how Daemon Prince Doomrider came about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgjensen Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Oh heck, I'll say Nurgle just because I think that would be really cool. Nobody says you have to turn into a bloated, sluggish Plague Marine, but a mechanized, wild riding plague host would be a sight to behold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simison Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Athrawes beat me to it. I second Malal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor's Furor Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 In the Scars the aspiring Stormseers have to refuse the chaos gods when they ascend a mountain. They get presented with a chalice and can take a sip to be respectful but have to give it back, been a while since I read it though as I did the weekly episodes of it. I figure their mystic nature may open them up to Tzeentch more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no I'm alpharius Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 In the alternative Primarchs thread, I had a brief story of them being like a horde of leather clad Hells Angels. That'd be the imagery I'd expect from Nurglite Scars, rusting hulks of bikes and trikes, a hint of Mad Max 2, leather and oil and dirt grime. Not speed, per se, but the constant march of our forces over you. With the Central Asian source material, there's a whole thread of sneaky attack Scars that plan and plot and twist and scheme you could put together. 'Realistically', its Khorne and then Slaanesh.

depthcharge12 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Now that Athrawes mentions it, Malal makes a good choice. But don't mention the war... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdemayo Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 My vote is for Undivided. Khan is pretty skeptical about authority figures in general; I can't see his legion devoting themselves to any one power. I van, however, easily see them as reaviers fighting for spoils and the challenge of it. Plus.... each Chaos God got dibs on one legion. If any of them got two, it would probably make the others dangerously jealous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopkins Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Scars touches on this when Khan has a conversation with Magnus on Prospero, but can you trust Magnus as a narrator? Magnus laughed. ‘You don’t want to know? That’s always been your weakness. I know it all, now. I could tell you the Emperor’s name, and it would surprise you. I could tell you that the fates decreed Fulgrim to be sent to Chogoris and you to Chemos, and I could tell you which arcane force in the universe prevented it.’ He took a step, then another, towards the Khan. ‘Do you wish to know where you will die, Khagan? Do you wish to know on what world, and in which dimension, your soul will find its ending?’ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strazhakov Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Khorne or Slaanesh would be the obvious choices. Malal doesn't exist much to my lament. In my headcanon the loyalists would have chosen the following Gods: Ultramarines - Undivided Imperial Fists - Nurgle Dark Angels - Tzeentch Blood Angels - Khorne or Slaanesh Space Wolves - Khorne Iron Hands - Undivided or Nurgle Raven Guard - Tzeentch White Scars - Slaanesh or Khorne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaeron Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 IF the scars had gone traitor? Let me remind you that parts of the White Scars did go traitor during Scars. Although, their general 'morality' suggests at least to me that they wouldn't necessarily subscribe to just a single God or doctrine. I think they're one of the most complex, and interesting Chapters for this reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashur Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Slaanesh. But not in a sexual way. More like count Zaroff from "The most dangerous game". Taking pleasure out of the thrill of hunting every living bieng and treating humans like game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RolandTHTG Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 That was basically the Dornian Heresy theme. Including a Huntmaster that existed Luscius-style, possessing those who bested him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
