    I have read about what they do in various fanfics. The most basic of tortures is:
    First, using a fine blade to slice into the body in a way that the skin can be slowly peeled off. This causes extreme pain on its own. Next, the same is done for each layer of muscle tissue until the bones are exposed. After that, the bones are carefully broken and removed from the body. Then, the organs are carefully lifted from the body while still being connected to it.
    Keep in mind, the subject is alive, conscious, and fully aware of what is happening to it during this dissection. And this is not even a very severe torture to the haemonculi. They can do far worse such as replacing a person's blood with something else, rearrange body parts and make them different, turn you into a part of the building, etc.

    Am I the only one who sees a warped parallel between the Haemonculi and the Mechanicus?
    Wracks = Skitarii, Grotesques = Servitors. Both can resurrect themselves, provide bionics/augmentation, do thier own crazy cult crap, have multiple limbs.
    Granted Urien Rakarth makes crazy old Belisarius Caul look as friendly and "harmless" as Willy Wonka...
    The main difference between the groups is in obsession and reaction. One is obsessed with the flesh and revels in emotion, the other focuses analytically on machines.

    So I'm just getting into this now, but the entire concept of the dark eldar obsession with pleasure and pain, the Haemonculi especially sound super close to cenobites ... Love of all sensations, raiding close dimensions for "subjects" slaves what have, "flesh sculpting", just saying, a puzzle box seems like an excellent party favor for haemonculi

    I can’t help but think that if Slaanesh ever finds a way to break into Commoragh, s/he might just let the haemonculi live; their work would definitely count as a “turn-on” for She Who Thirsts.

      more like nurgle. they're masters off death and biological weaponry and are the only true immortal Eldar in 40k as urien rakarth is easily over 11000 years old and existed before the fall as a leader of the ancient hedonistic Eldar.

    • @Mikazuchireborn
      @Mikazuchireborn Před 6 lety +8

      That implies Slaanesh is capable of some level of self-control. Sure they'd be beneficial in the long run and it would be a net gain to keep them around, but Slaanesh will always choose instant gratification.

      Mikazuchi yea, but they are unconsciously worshipping her. They never repented their twisted that birthed slaanesh in the first place. So...

    I get the idea of recording in the bathroom however a better option would be to throw a blanket over your computer this creates a sound deadening affect. I want to see you succeed this is a little trick that will absolutely help if you don’t have a sound room

  • @Archon3960
    @Archon3960 Před 4 lety +2

    I think the word " _Drukhari_ " is employed by the Craftworld Eldars rather than the Dark Eldar. It would make more sense, since it sound less refined that they'd like to be called.

    • @TacticaImperialis
      @TacticaImperialis  Před 6 lety

      Part of it is things beyond my control - I can't stop cars driving past my window nor deal with other people's noise save with editing (and even that doesn't always work, since it also slightly affects the edited voice audio too). I'm hoping to keep a level of consistency, but there's only so much I can do.

      How so? The art is all of the Haemonculi and such, and the section on Urien Rakarth and the other notable one included a picture of Rakarth. Bear in mind I try to avoid using GW art where possible and always try to credit artists so I am somewhat limited in what I can use, but they're all on theme.
