    The legend of Doomguy in this multicrossover can work. An immortal warrior who's mission has been completed in the past is sleeping in his sarcophagus in the Tomb of Souls atop of the Ingmore Sanctum. He's sleeping until he's needed once again. The Primevals are the overseers of their respective dimensions, in Davoth's case, Jekkad, better known as Hell, he got created by someone else who is more powerful than him. Who is that entity? That's probably up to the next Doom game, but here, Khorne could work perfectly. Khorne in his boredoom gave life to one of his most powerful creations, a simple human guided by the eventualities of demonic invasions and the sense of justice Doomguy inherited from his family that he stayed in the Warp to corpse camp demons for all eternity.

      Who (headcannon) is genetically similar to BJ Blascowicz, the soul itself is perpetual, not the whole body. Doomslayer is a kind of perpetual where the soul itself cannot die and has the emotional memories of each Iteration.
      Iteration you say, intelligence you say?
      The Atlas, the 40k universe and the entirety of this (head cannon) was actually created as a simulation. The Atlas is from No Man's Sky, a Super Intelligent AI that simulates universes and was created all the way into the fledgling times of human exploration to help us leave Earth. But it was too big to bring with us so it stayed on Earth. However, now since the Atlas only has 16 minutes left as in our (headcannon) timeline it is nearing an event horizon of a black hole, presumed to have been an undetected one. 16 minutes from the event horizon, which makes the Atlas unable to continue to Simulate the the 40K universe and others anymore, reducing it to what we see in NMS.
      The "creator" of Atlas was the Big E, and in its final moments it simulated a version of him to help it grieve, explore, and understand the last remaining instances before destruction.
      The reason the Big E is the creator? Is because "The Atlas" IS THE GOLDEN THRONE the Emperor coming back to Holy Terra, unbeknownst to the Atlas itself was repurposed. The Emperor was interred on it but the Atlas was not self-aware, the Emperor did not Allow it. But at some point Humanity HAD to leave Earth, and so the Atlas was left behind and SOMETHING saved the Emperor as he let Atlas scan him, not as this hulking golden visage, but the man that is the Emperor in a rudimentary space-ready exosuit.
      The last part is mostly jest, lmao.

    I think all 40kers agree that the Event Horizon was the first warp ship, created completely by accident, which is a very human thing to do. Starship Troopers, on the other hand, feels squeezed in. The Avatar/Pandora stuff... fits, but I want to ignore it anyway for its collossal waste of time, money and talent.
    I've little experience with most of the games you've included, but the tyranids must've started somewhere, so it shouldn't be a surprise if our galaxy birthed something similiar. If two such hives came into conflict and one absorbed the other, I doubt *any* gods could save the universe... and as Douglas Adams once wrote, "There is another theory which states that this has already happened."

    The brilliance of this isn't only the fact that 40k itself is the inspiration and in turn inspired by some of these franchise, but that 40k loves it's EVERYTHING IS CANON approach.
    Thus logically it's insprations and things that was inspired by it, could have happened... Or at least pretty similarly, and then the truth got blended by hearsay and time. So even if not accurate, it is accurate that people believed it was accurate because it was believable enough. Which is basically 40k's EVERYTHING IS CANON philosophy in a nutshell.

    I personally love this timeline because it adds levels of context for the imperium of 40k. It gives the idea that humanity was xenophobic and prone to religious idolatry long before the age of strife, it gives context for many of the titans, knights, and power armors. I can easily see many pf the power armors of fallout being early versions of the 40k power armor, some of them could even be modified and retrofitted pieces. Things like chems, whatever bloodshots nanobots are, fev, and many other things of that nature explaining factions like the assassin temples. The planet and humans of gears of war could easily be justified as early versions of catachan. I could totally Isaac Clarke and others becoming the foundations of the mechanicus's reluctance against invention and creating new technologies. This timeline just lines up super well and gives so much context for so many things. Great job homie.

      However there are no aliens in dune, I tend to look at these events as less history and more "stories" told or pieced together and survived way after the fact (after the dark age of tech and age of strife at least) they are fictional or mythology in nature often or nearly always not actually being 1:1 accurate and contradictory in nature, details or time
      They are reconstructions after the countless burnings of the libraries of Alexandria aka societal collapse, technological and social regression and massive population death
      Some are probably outright fabrications or so twisted as to be basically a lie, but all hint, relate and provide some truth of humanity's journey in the universe whether it's an historical event, era influence or something more thematic, esoteric or warning
      This fictionalization and oral history/story telling would also explain why so many stories seem to take place on terra/earth or contain references to locations on terra when they all couldn't have possibly been earth and are more likely colonies
      Everyone wants their story to be relatable, connecting and important and since they serve as a vehicle to remember and pass on history even if diluted many authors even intentionally or over time based these stories and tales on terra to always remember the home world and fit the trend of their contemporaries or by accident truly believed the location to be accurate as it was told to them

  • @alexfrost2799
    @alexfrost2799 Před 2 měsíci +6

    Considering how 40k has always been a mashup of a bunch of different IPs, I've been waiting for a fan fiction like this. And it would make sense. Warhammer 40k really is just THAT far into the future that all of this can fit, albeit with minor tweaks.
    I love how you made the Forerunners seem like some sort of forgotten hybrid of the Necrons and Aeldari and that the Flood and Necromorphs are the essence of the Old Ones morphed and twisted by the Dark Gods. It makes their virtually-impossible nature more plausible.
    I'm also loving your fusion of Halo, Terminator, the Matrix, and Battlestar Galactica into isolated incidences of the same event.
    Same goes with Destiny, Fallout, Mad Max, and Judge Dredd.
    Which actually brings up some interesting theories. Did the Emperor whisper secrets to Doctor Halsey to create the Spartans since they're practically proto-Astartes? Are the Forerunners as even close to as powerful as the Necrons and Aeldari give that both species largely ignored them (Halo says they are but this fan fiction says they're not)? And are the Tyranids another evolution of the essence of the Old Ones, but without the influence of Chaos? Or are they some long lost experiment like the Krorks that spun out of control and now threaten the Milky Way Galaxy as a whole?
    I would love to see if you can somehow fit the events of StarCraft into this as well. Maybe another story during the Age of Technology that ended with all technology lost, with the Terrans being enslaved by the Protoss or consumed by the Zerg. And it turns into another footnote during the Great Crusade.
    I wanted to see if you could've expanded the role of the Predators too. Maybe their empire was relatively hidden or untouched until an expedition fleet arrived and a Space Marine Legion wiped them out.
    Anyway, great stuff overall. I love it!

      I did, when he mentiom "petty wars happened" and such then mentioned FEV, it makes sense that Fallout would be "glossed over" it would be a collective "we really don't talk about the first time we destroyed earth and had to terraform it back"
      The Wasteland, if we were to go back to Fallout 1, it's actually tragic. The Whacky nonsensical stuff was meant to be a dark jest in Fallout 2, but Bethesda has kinda left the darker more mature tomes of the lore to the wayside.
      However, the biggest achievement that would stick would be FEV.
      In the grand scheme of time. 200-250 years of the "nuclear holocaust" is not _that_ long in the 40K universe. When really all it impacted was progress, not the Galaxy.

But it also makes sense to skip it in the main story cause it would be a fingernail of time compared to the rest of history.

    Get sent to a planet to feed either a large Terminid/Arachnid/Bug that has the potential to do a lot of Damage to the universe. Much like Dormant/Old Hive Fleets that got lost on worlds (Possibly because the Hivemind evolved _from_ the flood perhaps)
    You are not ment to survive "The Company" and going to old moons and planets in far reaches of the galaxy where failed colonies because of mutants, the warp, or xenos as a way to stow away "undesireables" from every wal of life.
