@@pleb9243 No,because the emperor was a hardcore atheist.

Imagine Bjorn and Emps meeting in a bathroom, just taking piss together. Emps gets a vision and starts laughing. Bjorn is confused but says nothing. They wash their hands and Emps notices that Bjorn is still confused. "In 10 thousand years, people will kneel before you after you mention this moment." Emps says before leaving the room, still chuckling, with Bjorn even more confused than before
I agree that the two should meet, Guilliman hears of Bjorn's legend, thinking, "wait a minute, it can't possibly be him, but if it is..." Runs over to Fenris while Bjorn is walking around. The two shocked to see the other. Roboute wasn't Russ' favorite brother but he respected him enough.

Russ returns to the Fang. Everyone then hears a rampaging angry dreadnaught from many rooms away. Bjorn would be so pissed at Russ at first there would be a fight.
@@buffaloshrimp4520 Most likely because he left them all with little to no explanation and left the imperium to turn into the state Bjorn sees only periodically. Each time he’s woken up he sees it sink further. Imagine how you would feel if your father left after you were placed into a bed in your home, only waking up sometimes to watch your house going to shit, Then all of a sudden he shows up without a single word, and it’s been 40 years. You would be pissed.
Bjorn the Fellhanded. Last of the Company of Russ. Trueclaw. First Great Wolf of Fenris after the Lord of Winter and War's departure. None are his equal. And to answer your question: A decade after the departure. He sat upon the throne of the fang. Declared himself the Great Wolf in honor of Russ and vowed to lead them as best he could. Not. One. Wolf Lord argued against.
I did what i could to keep it all together in the hope that Russ would return, but if it had been my choice i would've joined him ....(sigh) I miss the days i was fighting beside him.
"I walked in a true age of enlightenment I spoke with Jarl Russ and his brothers. I met the All-father, young pup you do not come before me to dictate terms I come before you to dictate terms." Even not being a Space Wolf player any imperial player would probably do the same thing Annaka did upon seeing Bjorn the Fell-Handed. And anyone who plays the other factions or races would understand the respect he has earned.
I'm with you, Russ breaks the front off the iron coffin and demands Bjorn to stand, and from the smog pouring out of the machine, a pair of long withered feet restored touch the floor for the first time in centuries. I'd fuckin hit the floor.
Could you imagine a dreadnought just sort of slouching like an irritated person. Arms down and just sort of leaning back saying Ahhhhhh my GOD stop kneeling
It was the Months of shame, the space wolves protection of civilians and imperial guard and their tactics, simply putting themselves between the ships and not firing back, until the grey knights betrayed a parley, then they went full blown destroying them :D its my fav story in all of 40k and my first step into the lore. Kysnaros should have been slapped for not dropping to his knees right from the start! disrespectful little pup! And I would love a Bjorn centric book, but not until the return of Russ, I want the return of Russ told through Bjorn, I want him to be the first wolf to see him again, he deserves it! more than anyone in the entire Imperium!
If we’re honest, Bjorn’s only going to kneel to better sucker punch Russ for 10,00 years of leaving him behind. And right in middle of a massive battle, a classic Fenrisian Bro-Brawl will break out.
I read Emperors gift........I kept saying to myself each time......."You're either Might brave or mighty stupid inquisitors" Bjorn bellowing at them would've been real "You force me to wake up because of secrets? That's how this mess began, with secrets. You haven't learned anything have you.....children"
Don't forget the Space Wolf answering the door when the Inquisition rang the doorbell and demanded to speak to someone in charge told them it would take 4 hours to get that person.
@@AnikaJarlsdottr well 4 hours to wake up a 10k years old Stubborn Dreadnought, 1of which is used to convince him not to go kil whoever callled for him because he is made to fight not serve as a f***ing diplomat
the image of the inquisitors and grey knight kneeling to Bjorn and Bjorn in turn getting increasingly annoyed with it is just great, he deserves the praise 100%, but it should be for being such a badass not just for who he happened to stand next to at some point.
That's how Bjorn sees himself. For all his amazing feats in this day and age his biggest accomplishments in his own eyes are fighting beside Russ and the Allfather.
Every wolf character can be the focus of a great novel. So much personality and uniqueness. From Bjorn to my fravourite Bran Redmaw, Get a load of this: The Battle for Montberg Spaceport (897.M41) - When Hive Fleet Colossus descends in force upon the civilised world of Thressiax, the Imperial forces of garrisoned there prove unable to stop the constant influx of Tyranid invaders, Imperial Command issues a high ruling for all Imperial forces to withdraw and leave the settlers of Thressiax to their fate so that the Tyranids can be exterminated from space. Bran Redmaw, resupplying upon Thressiax at the time, objects fiercely to this dictat. Though he himself cannot leave the front lines, he sends two full squads of Grey Hunters intensively train the menfolk of Montberg in anti-Tyranid drill, putting the fear of Fenris into those who considered fleeing. Against all odds, the Grey Hunters and their new recruits hold the walls of the spaceport against the screeching swarms of alien invaders, buying the settler families enough time to escape. When the six surviving Grey Hunters finally leave the spaceport themselves, Imperial High Command orders them to be stripped of all honours for disobeying a direct command. Instead Bran Redmaw promotes all six into his personal Wolf Guard in recognition of their valorous deed
Imp High Command: "Those soldiers must be publically dishonoured for disobeying OUR orders" Redmaw: "ONE, they answer to Me. Two, they will get what they deserve" Also Redmaw: *Promotes them on the spot*
@Ban this youtube the attitude of the Vylka Fenryka can best be described as "hehe, try and stop us". such a rich back story for the legion of the Lord of Winter and War, I will never stop loving my glorious space vikings xD
@@brentkalmbacher9092 probaby not wolves as before the canis helix only worked on Fenrisians. I don't think they would make soldiers into servants ether as they would be seen as battle brothers not slaves. But i see some regiments becoming loyal allies to wolf companies like the aett guard
I would love to see Bjorn and Roboute getting to talk. For The Avenging Son, Bjorn is perhaps the only nephew he could confide in about what it's felt like to see the Imperium as it is now. For Bjorn, he'd finally have someone who could actually remember the gold old days with him, and what the Imperium was supposed to stand for.
To be honest Bjorn is better when we see him through the eyes of others he deserves his legendary status and would be very hard someone to make a story worthy of him with him as the main character , they are only two things that could work (for me at least) a story from his days as normal Astartes or when a new Primarch, Leman Rass in particular return
He is such a mythical character in the lore that I agree it can only be told from others perspectives and him showing up should be a moment of sheer fun for the reader. You know shit is going down when Bjorn starts killing stuff.
@@SigRho1429 You honestly would compare me with someone like Cain ?? He's too much in love with the sound of his own voice. I can come up with a good story or two but i would not go so far as too talk so much as to get enough for a whole novel, that would bore me after awhile. Besides i just did what i had to do back in the days. And yes some of it may be worth a song or two but those who know me know i'm not one to go around and embellish my stories. Let others tell my story if they can or hear it from the one that knows me best, Russ himself.
@@inquisitorkryptman7893 waking everytime its going to sh** and waking every thousand years only to see worse and worse change would be... quite alot for the poor old wolf
That artwork of annica placing her hand on bjorn's warplate is magnificent.. It captures not just the sheer immense size and powerful presence bjorn has but at the same time there's a sadness there.. As if there's so much more to him than just ceramite and adamantium.. Like annica is wishing for him to be free of his confines..
imagine fighting for the Emperor, seeing what could have been only to see it all come crashing down over the period of 10000 years all due to Erebus's hubris.
I wish you included how he reacted to the inquisitor. When he told her she looked beautiful (i forgot the exact phrase, its been YEARS since i last read the novel). That's pretty wild to hear that from a space marine let alone a dreadnought.
Never forget that we were ordinary men once, and that we always remember those days before we became what we are today. Others may forget or even despise what they once were (like those Iron Hands) but we never forget the joys we had as humans and while others may stick to some daily routine as it is described in the Codex Astartes we embrace our past with even more relish.
Interestingly Space Wolves hit the extremes, they either die really young or live to be insanely old. Ulrik and Grimnar are both borderlining 1k years and there's at least one other Dread in the Fang nearly as old as Bjorn.
@@psychedashell tbf, considering the culture of Fenris its quite logical, you either die a humble warriors death or live as glorious champion and die as martyr
I would love to read that Bjorn novel, especially if it started with… “The lumen signifiers blinked consciousness stirring in Bjorn’s revered hulk” “Oh, fuck off, Njal.”
You're bloody right i would, no need for all of that nonsense. Just wake me up when it's time to fight or to recant the saga of Russ or if someone needs my bloody advice and that will be enough for me.
I think one of the best things I ever read about Bjorn is that when Leman Russ left on his trip into the warp he was actually like super hurt and thought that Russ didn't trust him the same as he trusted the men who took him and took him a long time to actually realize that R Us trusted him the most out of any of his other brothers and then when he realized that he took on the role with renewed vigour and realize the honour that he had been bestowed such a great character both human and inhuman in the same breath awesome keep it up wolflord
I'd love a book for Bjorn. It would be awesome to see him doing his thing especially from his perspective. The crazy thing about him too, coming from our perspective as readers, is that Bjorn was about as vanilla a personality as it gets compared to his brothers and lords during the Heresy. They actually saw him as a depressed child lol. Imagine if Ogvai had been turned into the dreadnaught?!
@@DoomStarRequiem both? I’d love to see a bjorn trilogy following russ leaving and the events that led to his interment in the dreadnought and then following his first few awakenings for battle and the first time he has to tell the saga of russ
@@nathanholmes9983 Simple your not going to git his life story in just two books, we only have a small glimpse of everything his done so far, just snippets from someone else's story we need to hear it from his point of view with more detail as well as context. Something akin to what was done for Ragnar
I have to say: you brought it in this video. I felt just the same as you reading that passage. Grey Knights are bad-ass. Björn invented bad-ass by not making much noise about it. To me, Björn came around as somebody not understand what "all the fuss is about". I don't think he thinks of himself as somebody extraordinary.
If I remember correctly he sees himself as a failure as he believes russ left him behind becuase he was upset with him however I think it was more to the fact if russ didn't leave him behind no one would be able to lead the wolves
I think, he thinks of and compares himself to the rest of Leman Russ' wolf guard and Leman Russ in comparison to himself, and that's why he doesn't see himself as extraordinary. (Even though he is)
@@lordcommissar7813 he felt like he had been discarded after Russ left but not realising that, out of all the Wolf Kings warriors, he was the only one that Russ truely felt was capable of watching over and guiding the Vylka Fenryka in his abscence. Bjorn sat on the throne of Fenris and swore to lead them as best he could, not one warrior objected or raised a challenge. I hope so much that when the Lord of Winter and War returns with the seeds of the tree of life, he will greet his old friend with all the approval he can muster. Bjorn deserves that much at the very least.
In Prospero burns the whole book becomes so much better when the reveal of who "Bear" actually is happens. I actually screamed "no fucking way" was probably the only person who didn't see it coming but it was a real treat for me.
No it wasn't just you. I remember first reading that and knowing that Bjorn = Bear and still at the end when he loses the arm I was just like. WHAT. THE. FUCK. THAT'S BJORN?!? Still probably my favorite moment when reading the novels followed closely by the big reveal in Mortis......
@@Tanemis which one from mortis because I feel like there was a couple, I'm guessing you're either talking about Olanius' past or the Alpharius part though. Was listening to the audio book at work too so maybe I missed one. Also glad I'm not the only one who didn't realize that was Bjorn.
I had to watch the meeting with the Fellhanded three times, I was laughing myself into tears. Thanks so much, Rho, for your narration of this great story!
I want a short story of Bjorn visiting the golden throne and having a one way dialogue with the allfather. I feel like given both their fates they would become bonded in a way no one else could understand. It would bring him closer to the emperor and the insights and reflections he could make in such an encounter would make for some amazing and compelling reading
I find that unlikely and honestly just to unoriginal. We would want to see just about any character meet the emperor. Be it chaos spawn, human or xeno… but it wouldn’t necessarily be impactful. They wouldn’t for any bond… from the beginning it’s more then clear that the emperor was a cold hearted men. Giving no shit for ordinary humans. And now that his mind is shattered? He wouldn’t even bother to speaking to bjorn. It’s to much effort for to little gain.
@@62sy well honestly i could see such meeting happen, but in 2 conditions, 1 the Emperor has to be "resurected", 2 Bjorn dies close to the emperor afterward, in this very specific circonstances, i could see the Emperor engaging in final talks to his oldest grandson to call him back to his side like the rest, he has done his duty as the emperor intended, far longer than the emperor intended
Kind of had to watch the video twice, no issues it was just that good, plus I can see him rolling his, eyes and going "Pick up whatever you dropped and let, s get on with it"
@@lordcommissar7813 but its also them being a first founding chapter that didn't go insane with weird shit like the DA or have their own Empire like the Ultramarines. They were always the ones who cared about humanity. They still see themselves as part of the Imperium. They see themselves as the protectors and defenders of the Emperor's will. He wanted to save humanity. They also still have someone who remembers what the Imperium was supposed to be in Bjorn, who is woken up every century to make sure that all the new initiates hear from someone who was there. That link is something no other chapter has. The honor coupled with a true spark of actual humanity remaining in their culture and geneseed means they actually try to do what is right in a universe of wrong. And often suffer for it. Yet, like Orks, they get to live their best life in the pursuit of a valiant death in the service of their Allfather and humanity.
Imagine telling a chapter, you aren’t supposed to know exist, that they will only deploy when you say and subtlety threatening said unit that they won’t be committing exterminatus today.
It is hilarious to me that the inquisitors and Grey Knight showed up to get the Space Wolves to surrender and ended up on their knees begging Bjorn for forgiveness, after realizing how badly they done messed up, "They woke HIM to deal with us" as though someone else could have bent sent to negotiate but Bjorn was here to take out the trash.
Can you make a video about the trifoil legions and its meaning? Space wolves alpha legion, salamanders, all of them considered special. Alpha legion also had special connection to space wolves as it was the alphas who saved the wolves in their ships.
We desperately need a book co-staring the Space Wolves and the Salamanders. Their personalities are so compatible. It would be the true Song of Fire and Ice.
@@messihr it's more like the former , but not entirely. Its not a legion flashback it happens in real time during the siege of terra, but to give away more than that would be spoilers n it's too good I'll leave it for you to read
WOW, amazing once again as you pull in the words to bring them to life like a fire on the hearth. I love you old tales get brought back forth into the light with even more depth and new interesting twists. Especially this part of the Wolves Tale!!! Such good stuff and thank you for the inspiration. Looking forward to more of your takes!! AARRWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Fantastic content as always rho, I'm not sure what it was about the video but it switched my lore cravings back on. I had read 8 books in a row earlier this year and it burnt me out but I think I'm ready to hop back in. Thanks for the sparking my passion once again my friend
Bjorn is the neverending Saga. If anny one caracter deserves a ressurection to stand again in the flesh alongside Lemann of the Russ. It is Bjorn. He has spend almost aslong in his dreadnought sarcophagus as The Emperor has sat on The Golden Throne. Bjorn has fought to build and keep the Imperium together, longer, then all the Primarchs put together. What more can you ask of a astartes.
For ten thousand years have I fought for my own for ten thousand years spent in endless war! A Space Marine that can actually put someone like Dante to shame. I will admit the Inquisitor being a native of Fenris is pretty interesting. I would not consider Fenris being high on the list of planets to produce Inquisitors. I can't imagine their people being screened and selected often for much other then serving the Space Wolves. Wouldn't it be amazing when Russ returns and he assumes Bjorn died. No Space Marine could make it ten thousand years. To then come face to face with the son he left behind.
Space wolves the embodiment of the fact "it only matters if you give it meaning. And then it is in your power to assign what ever meaning you want" Random space wolves dreadnought doesn't mean much. Bjorn the Fell handed, high king and great wolf has far more meaning. An honor duel to respect your chapter's founders brawl after an insult, has the meanings of personal responsibility and respect about it. But, it can also be framed as siblings rough housing. It depends if you ask Russ or the Lion

@@yoursafeplace8476Then proceeds to get revived by a fruit
Could you imagine a dreadnought just sort of slouching like an irritated person. Arms down and just sort of leaning back saying Ahhhhhh my GOD stop kneeling
"Ahhhhh my MANperor stop kneeling," you mean
Try "Russ's ass get on yer feet or i'll drag you up ! " And me ? slouching ? Rather looming over them.

@@AnikaJarlsdottr Janissaries are you ready to die!
It was the Months of shame, the space wolves protection of civilians and imperial guard and their tactics, simply putting themselves between the ships and not firing back, until the grey knights betrayed a parley, then they went full blown destroying them :D its my fav story in all of 40k and my first step into the lore.
Kysnaros should have been slapped for not dropping to his knees right from the start! disrespectful little pup!
And I would love a Bjorn centric book, but not until the return of Russ, I want the return of Russ told through Bjorn, I want him to be the first wolf to see him again, he deserves it! more than anyone in the entire Imperium!
Just picture that moment...
Gives me chills.
It'll be the only time in 40k that a Dread actually kneeled.
he has waited for so long for russ to return, he has kept his word too, and stayed with the chapter this whole time.
If we’re honest, Bjorn’s only going to kneel to better sucker punch Russ for 10,00 years of leaving him behind. And right in middle of a massive battle, a classic Fenrisian Bro-Brawl will break out.
The only way to tell a Bjorn story worthy of him would be Russ returning to the Imperium. There will be some punches thrown between the two.
I read Emperors gift........I kept saying to myself each time......."You're either Might brave or mighty stupid inquisitors"
Bjorn bellowing at them would've been real "You force me to wake up because of secrets? That's how this mess began, with secrets. You haven't learned anything have you.....children"
Bjorn is such a bad ass "they woke him to deal with us !" Lmao
Yarrick and bjorn taking to each other would be the greatest thing to happen in the story in a long time..
Don't forget the Space Wolf answering the door when the Inquisition rang the doorbell and demanded to speak to someone in charge told them it would take 4 hours to get that person.
@@Alex-xt1rr it takes 4 hours to wake a dreadnought? huh... the more you know :)

Bjorn is my favorite but I think greatest goes to Rylanor

I mean he did smack Magnus around like a bitch 😂

@@FoxHound-ut1hu rylanor killed part of fulgrims pride though
Bjorn "come on, must everyone kneel? if i had a nickel for everytime someone did, i could afford to buy out the entire imperium..."
Putting the words in my mouth , because that's exactly how i feel at times lol XD
Guilliman "mate you have no idea how many times i would be able to buy it then"
the image of the inquisitors and grey knight kneeling to Bjorn and Bjorn in turn getting increasingly annoyed with it is just great, he deserves the praise 100%, but it should be for being such a badass not just for who he happened to stand next to at some point.
That's how Bjorn sees himself.
For all his amazing feats in this day and age his biggest accomplishments in his own eyes are fighting beside Russ and the Allfather.
Every wolf character can be the focus of a great novel. So much personality and uniqueness. From Bjorn to my fravourite Bran Redmaw,
Get a load of this:
The Battle for Montberg Spaceport (897.M41) - When Hive Fleet Colossus descends in force upon the civilised world of Thressiax, the Imperial forces of garrisoned there prove unable to stop the constant influx of Tyranid invaders, Imperial Command issues a high ruling for all Imperial forces to withdraw and leave the settlers of Thressiax to their fate so that the Tyranids can be exterminated from space. Bran Redmaw, resupplying upon Thressiax at the time, objects fiercely to this dictat. Though he himself cannot leave the front lines, he sends two full squads of Grey Hunters intensively train the menfolk of Montberg in anti-Tyranid drill, putting the fear of Fenris into those who considered fleeing. Against all odds, the Grey Hunters and their new recruits hold the walls of the spaceport against the screeching swarms of alien invaders, buying the settler families enough time to escape. When the six surviving Grey Hunters finally leave the spaceport themselves, Imperial High Command orders them to be stripped of all honours for disobeying a direct command. Instead Bran Redmaw promotes all six into his personal Wolf Guard in recognition of their valorous deed
Imp High Command: "Those soldiers must be publically dishonoured for disobeying OUR orders"
Redmaw: "ONE, they answer to Me. Two, they will get what they deserve"
Also Redmaw: *Promotes them on the spot*
@Ban this youtube the attitude of the Vylka Fenryka can best be described as "hehe, try and stop us".
such a rich back story for the legion of the Lord of Winter and War, I will never stop loving my glorious space vikings xD
I wonder if those soldiers were collected to become servants of the wolves or even wolves themselves.
@@brentkalmbacher9092 probaby not wolves as before the canis helix only worked on Fenrisians.
I don't think they would make soldiers into servants ether as they would be seen as battle brothers not slaves. But i see some regiments becoming loyal allies to wolf companies like the aett guard
"A dreadnought rolling his eyes" is a mental image now seared into my parietal lobes.
we need a novel with bjorn talking to guilliman !!! it would be the best thing ever in my opinion
It could just be in a "My Dinner With Andre" style and I would still be clamouring to read it.
We would get Bjorn telling Guillaume to get off his ass and clean this shit up.and start by shooting every last one of the the ecclesiarty
I would love to see Bjorn and Roboute getting to talk. For The Avenging Son, Bjorn is perhaps the only nephew he could confide in about what it's felt like to see the Imperium as it is now. For Bjorn, he'd finally have someone who could actually remember the gold old days with him, and what the Imperium was supposed to stand for.
Id like to imagine that when they meet the two will crack a joke
Guilliman: You got shorter
Bjorn: And you aren't unconscious
Bjorn:Get bent Inquisitor!
Inquisitor: *Breaks their own back*
To be honest Bjorn is better when we see him through the eyes of others he deserves his legendary status and would be very hard someone to make a story worthy of him with him as the main character , they are only two things that could work (for me at least) a story from his days as normal Astartes or when a new Primarch, Leman Rass in particular return
I respectfully beg to disagree. Sandy Mitchell could write it in the same style as the Cain books, no problem. Bjorn out walking his puppies.
He is such a mythical character in the lore that I agree it can only be told from others perspectives and him showing up should be a moment of sheer fun for the reader. You know shit is going down when Bjorn starts killing stuff.
Wouldn't it be epic if Russ returns with Isha and she heals Bjorn. He then breaks out of his sarcophagus and walks on his own legs again.
@@SigRho1429 You honestly would compare me with someone like Cain ?? He's too much in love with the sound of his own voice. I can come up with a good story or two but i would not go so far as too talk so much as to get enough for a whole novel, that would bore me after awhile. Besides i just did what i had to do back in the days. And yes some of it may be worth a song or two but those who know me know i'm not one to go around and embellish my stories. Let others tell my story if they can or hear it from the one that knows me best, Russ himself.
@@Taiko206 But you did such an excellent job of talking about yourself right there! Don’t sleep on the talents of Sandy Mitchell.
Guilliman needs to meet him! He's one of the few left alive who remembers his brother and The Great Crusade. :)
And one of the few who would look at Gulliman and be absolutely honest with him

That artwork of annica placing her hand on bjorn's warplate is magnificent.. It captures not just the sheer immense size and powerful presence bjorn has but at the same time there's a sadness there.. As if there's so much more to him than just ceramite and adamantium.. Like annica is wishing for him to be free of his confines..
2 ways, Enough magic, Orrrrr you can just use hereon from the seeds of the tree life
imagine fighting for the Emperor, seeing what could have been only to see it all come crashing down over the period of 10000 years all due to Erebus's hubris.
Russ: Give this man a beer.
When reading this story, the Sons of Russ became my ultimate favorite chapter and legion. LEGENDARY
Bjorn laughs at the "God" Emperor part.
"Somehow for a Dreadnought, Bjorn rolls his eyes." Haha.. boss
When bjorn is there you know the battle is won for the wolves
I wish you included how he reacted to the inquisitor. When he told her she looked beautiful (i forgot the exact phrase, its been YEARS since i last read the novel). That's pretty wild to hear that from a space marine let alone a dreadnought.
Just because they dont engage does not mean that they cant judge beauty... Just ask the Emperors Children ... wait dont do that.
Little Lucas is learning something from Bjorn, sadly it's not his tactics in war 😅
Space wolves are one of the few chapters who's space marines can actually have sex and actually do, so it's not surprising.
Never forget that we were ordinary men once, and that we always remember those days before we became what we are today. Others may forget or even despise what they once were (like those Iron Hands) but we never forget the joys we had as humans and while others may stick to some daily routine as it is described in the Codex Astartes we embrace our past with even more relish.
Inquisitor - EXcuse you!?
Bjorn the Fell-Handed - I was made for two things luv, warrin' and whoring.
He is a legend because he's very old in a universe where men die young.
Interestingly Space Wolves hit the extremes, they either die really young or live to be insanely old. Ulrik and Grimnar are both borderlining 1k years and there's at least one other Dread in the Fang nearly as old as Bjorn.
@@psychedashell tbf, considering the culture of Fenris its quite logical, you either die a humble warriors death or live as glorious champion and die as martyr
I'd love seeing a scene with Guilliman exchanging words with Bjorn, remembering Russ. Everyone around them just gasping at those two legends
It would be the first time guilliman would look up to a space marine to talk to him..
To the average inquisitor, meeting Bjorn would be like a catholic laying eyes on John the Baptist, and he swears like a sailor.
I would love to read that Bjorn novel, especially if it started with…
“The lumen signifiers blinked consciousness stirring in Bjorn’s revered hulk”
“Oh, fuck off, Njal.”
favourite character, the spiritual identity of the chapter, revered as much as the emperor and their primarch . even though he would disuade it
You're bloody right i would, no need for all of that nonsense. Just wake me up when it's time to fight or to recant the saga of Russ or if someone needs my bloody advice and that will be enough for me.
Inquisitor: by the god emperor
Björn: boi im finna slide you, that's what imma do.
Bjorn just laughed it off though like a good joke.
I think one of the best things I ever read about Bjorn is that when Leman Russ left on his trip into the warp he was actually like super hurt and thought that Russ didn't trust him the same as he trusted the men who took him and took him a long time to actually realize that R Us trusted him the most out of any of his other brothers and then when he realized that he took on the role with renewed vigour and realize the honour that he had been bestowed such a great character both human and inhuman in the same breath awesome keep it up wolflord
I'd love a book for Bjorn. It would be awesome to see him doing his thing especially from his perspective. The crazy thing about him too, coming from our perspective as readers, is that Bjorn was about as vanilla a personality as it gets compared to his brothers and lords during the Heresy. They actually saw him as a depressed child lol. Imagine if Ogvai had been turned into the dreadnaught?!
From a dreadnought Bjorn perspective or non dreadnought Bjorn?
@@DoomStarRequiem both? I’d love to see a bjorn trilogy following russ leaving and the events that led to his interment in the dreadnought and then following his first few awakenings for battle and the first time he has to tell the saga of russ
@@DoomStarRequiem Either/ or Both. Do one from during the transition forward
I think we may need a Bjorn week
This hit me right in the feels. 😭
Bjorn doesn't need a novel he needs an entire trilogy at the bare minimum.
A trilogy? How? Every word would have to gold just for Bjorn!!! Anything less would be an insult.
@@nathanholmes9983 Simple your not going to git his life story in just two books, we only have a small glimpse of everything his done so far, just snippets from someone else's story we need to hear it from his point of view with more detail as well as context. Something akin to what was done for Ragnar
I agree, I liked him a lot
Bjorn was the character that got me into 40k the first lore I really looked Into
I have to say: you brought it in this video. I felt just the same as you reading that passage.
Grey Knights are bad-ass. Björn invented bad-ass by not making much noise about it.
To me, Björn came around as somebody not understand what "all the fuss is about". I don't think he thinks of himself as somebody extraordinary.
If I remember correctly he sees himself as a failure as he believes russ left him behind becuase he was upset with him however I think it was more to the fact if russ didn't leave him behind no one would be able to lead the wolves
I think, he thinks of and compares himself to the rest of Leman Russ' wolf guard and Leman Russ in comparison to himself, and that's why he doesn't see himself as extraordinary. (Even though he is)
@@lordcommissar7813 he felt like he had been discarded after Russ left but not realising that, out of all the Wolf Kings warriors, he was the only one that Russ truely felt was capable of watching over and guiding the Vylka Fenryka in his abscence. Bjorn sat on the throne of Fenris and swore to lead them as best he could, not one warrior objected or raised a challenge. I hope so much that when the Lord of Winter and War returns with the seeds of the tree of life, he will greet his old friend with all the approval he can muster. Bjorn deserves that much at the very least.
Inquisitor: "By the God-Emperor!"
Bjorn: "Listen here, you little shit..."
His story from the wyrd marked depresso to the mighty legend of all grumpy grandads he truly deserves his status, id love a book of his story
In Prospero burns the whole book becomes so much better when the reveal of who "Bear" actually is happens. I actually screamed "no fucking way" was probably the only person who didn't see it coming but it was a real treat for me.
No it wasn't just you. I remember first reading that and knowing that Bjorn = Bear and still at the end when he loses the arm I was just like. WHAT. THE. FUCK. THAT'S BJORN?!? Still probably my favorite moment when reading the novels followed closely by the big reveal in Mortis......
@@Tanemis which one from mortis because I feel like there was a couple, I'm guessing you're either talking about Olanius' past or the Alpharius part though. Was listening to the audio book at work too so maybe I missed one. Also glad I'm not the only one who didn't realize that was Bjorn.
It broke my heart even more when after the battle a dreadnaught passed by and he said “No one wants to live like that.”
We need a bjorn and guilliman talking about the old days ASAP
I had to watch the meeting with the Fellhanded three times, I was laughing myself into tears. Thanks so much, Rho, for your narration of this great story!
Inquisitors: *Kneel*
Bjorn: HAVE YOU NO WOLVES YOU MILKSOPS?!
I want a short story of Bjorn visiting the golden throne and having a one way dialogue with the allfather. I feel like given both their fates they would become bonded in a way no one else could understand. It would bring him closer to the emperor and the insights and reflections he could make in such an encounter would make for some amazing and compelling reading
I find that unlikely and honestly just to unoriginal. We would want to see just about any character meet the emperor. Be it chaos spawn, human or xeno… but it wouldn’t necessarily be impactful.
They wouldn’t for any bond… from the beginning it’s more then clear that the emperor was a cold hearted men. Giving no shit for ordinary humans. And now that his mind is shattered? He wouldn’t even bother to speaking to bjorn. It’s to much effort for to little gain.
@@62sy well honestly i could see such meeting happen, but in 2 conditions, 1 the Emperor has to be "resurected", 2 Bjorn dies close to the emperor afterward, in this very specific circonstances, i could see the Emperor engaging in final talks to his oldest grandson to call him back to his side like the rest, he has done his duty as the emperor intended, far longer than the emperor intended
I love that the space wolves call the Emperor the “All Father”
Bjorn made the Inquisition looks like a bunch a chihuahua to the Wolf husky
I can't wait for Guilliman to finally meet Bjorn and have a connection, any connection to the days before his fall.
Kind of had to watch the video twice, no issues it was just that good, plus I can see him rolling his, eyes and going "Pick up whatever you dropped and let, s get on with it"
Love the SWs or hate the SWs; you can't *not* like Bjorn. Also, you can't hate them for their protective nature towards the innocent among humanity.
Isn't it more of a honor thing it is there duty to protect the citizens of the imperium and there honor demands it to be so
@@lordcommissar7813 but its also them being a first founding chapter that didn't go insane with weird shit like the DA or have their own Empire like the Ultramarines. They were always the ones who cared about humanity. They still see themselves as part of the Imperium. They see themselves as the protectors and defenders of the Emperor's will. He wanted to save humanity. They also still have someone who remembers what the Imperium was supposed to be in Bjorn, who is woken up every century to make sure that all the new initiates hear from someone who was there. That link is something no other chapter has.
The honor coupled with a true spark of actual humanity remaining in their culture and geneseed means they actually try to do what is right in a universe of wrong. And often suffer for it. Yet, like Orks, they get to live their best life in the pursuit of a valiant death in the service of their Allfather and humanity.
@@brettnyrehn261 well said I always love Bjorn but I often forget just how much of a legend he is

Imagine telling a chapter, you aren’t supposed to know exist, that they will only deploy when you say and subtlety threatening said unit that they won’t be committing exterminatus today.
It is hilarious to me that the inquisitors and Grey Knight showed up to get the Space Wolves to surrender and ended up on their knees begging Bjorn for forgiveness, after realizing how badly they done messed up, "They woke HIM to deal with us" as though someone else could have bent sent to negotiate but Bjorn was here to take out the trash.
Love reading about this fella in the Heresy
This guys videos are spicier than me mums vindaloo
Good to know.
Can you make a video about the trifoil legions and its meaning? Space wolves alpha legion, salamanders, all of them considered special. Alpha legion also had special connection to space wolves as it was the alphas who saved the wolves in their ships.

We desperately need a book co-staring the Space Wolves and the Salamanders. Their personalities are so compatible. It would be the true Song of Fire and Ice.
There's a storyline of such teamwork during the horus heresy in the fury of magnus
@@TheDoomslayersDaddy I haven't read it yet. Is it just the scattered Wolves on Terra working with the Draaksward or a flashback with the legions?
@@messihr it's more like the former , but not entirely. Its not a legion flashback it happens in real time during the siege of terra, but to give away more than that would be spoilers n it's too good I'll leave it for you to read
A novel with Bjørn as the main focus. And with him meeting Dante to tell him of Sanguinius. That would be kinda cool! :D
Is there a biography of the Fell-Handed? There damn well should be.
WOW, amazing once again as you pull in the words to bring them to life like a fire on the hearth. I love you old tales get brought back forth into the light with even more depth and new interesting twists. Especially this part of the Wolves Tale!!! Such good stuff and thank you for the inspiration. Looking forward to more of your takes!! AARRWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Fantastic content as always rho, I'm not sure what it was about the video but it switched my lore cravings back on. I had read 8 books in a row earlier this year and it burnt me out but I think I'm ready to hop back in. Thanks for the sparking my passion once again my friend
this book is so good really glad you did this segment Rho! always wanted you to cover since I first read it
I truly would love a novel like that as it would be to all other imperials another walking myth other than the blue boy
Dante and Tushan are also great characters some novels would be great of
Björn is one of my favorite space marine characters.
Oh man. I have to say this video gave me goosebumps! One of your best videos definitely. Thanks for the content!
Bjorn is the neverending Saga. If anny one caracter deserves a ressurection to stand again in the flesh alongside Lemann of the Russ. It is Bjorn. He has spend almost aslong in his dreadnought sarcophagus as The Emperor has sat on The Golden Throne.
Bjorn has fought to build and keep the Imperium together, longer, then all the Primarchs put together.
What more can you ask of a astartes.
Yes its deserved and would love book about him one of my fav wolf characters
I think there needs to be a Bjorn week, just for him. There's so much lore at this point and he's had relevance all along. What say you?
We need more Bjorn!
Oh Wolf Lord ❤ I just love these insights on these characters. You make them sound so exciting and enjoyable. Keep them up. Much appreciated 😊
For ten thousand years have I fought for my own for ten thousand years spent in endless war! A Space Marine that can actually put someone like Dante to shame. I will admit the Inquisitor being a native of Fenris is pretty interesting. I would not consider Fenris being high on the list of planets to produce Inquisitors. I can't imagine their people being screened and selected often for much other then serving the Space Wolves. Wouldn't it be amazing when Russ returns and he assumes Bjorn died. No Space Marine could make it ten thousand years. To then come face to face with the son he left behind.
It’s amazing I can hear the name of the title yesterday for the first time and now I see a video on him! Col
He's the epitome of what every space marine aspires to be. Entombed in the best armor to fight even in death leading the chapter.
Space wolves the embodiment of the fact "it only matters if you give it meaning. And then it is in your power to assign what ever meaning you want"
Random space wolves dreadnought doesn't mean much. Bjorn the Fell handed, high king and great wolf has far more meaning.
An honor duel to respect your chapter's founders brawl after an insult, has the meanings of personal responsibility and respect about it. But, it can also be framed as siblings rough housing. It depends if you ask Russ or the Lion
I would love to see a whole "The Trials of Bjorn to find his father"
Couldn’t agree more that the emotional moments of the books are amazing. Thanks to you I will definitely be picking up emperors gift!
Guilliman: Wow you've gotten old nephew
Bjorn: Look who's talking uncle excel
Next year we need a recap of Bjorn literally beating Magnus's ass down a mountainside for wolfweek.
Really enjoy the way you retell the story. You capture the emotion of this so well. Bjorn truely is legend
