There are most certainly worse fates than death and nobody proves that more than Epimetheus, a founding member of the Grey Knights

CZcams & GAMESWORK PLEASE READ - This channel started years ago with this man using a cartoon avatar to make What If videos about warhammer lore. But about a year ago this man thought that it would be hilarious and profitable to openly use the N-WORD on this platform. Before this this man has made a comfortable career attacking, mocking as well as sending death threat to the Autistic Community. And in recent months this man started selling LOLLI PORNOGRAPHY using Gamesworkshop’s Intellectual property without the company’s permission behind his patreon pay wall. This man has constantly gone against CZcams’s Terms and Services. When CZcams took down the video where he laughed at using the N-word, this man re-uploaded the same video with a minor edit so that he could have a second laugh. When the community tries to cancel him for his horrible behavior that is exactly when he discontinued his cartoon avatar and started Parading in front of the camera. He doubled down constantly saying phrases along the line “I’ll do whatever I want”. For a hobby with a recommended age of 13 and older this can not be helpful for the community. I was 13 when I stepped into the GW for the first time, and over the years I saw other unhinged man-children in the shop doing saying the exact same things as this individual. And every single time a parent would hear the exact words from those men come out of their children’s and they all received life bans. How is this any different? CZcams’s platform allows him reach kids on an international level, he is directly responsible for creating the future RACISTS, SEXUAL PREDATORS, and CHRISCHANS. CZcams, Gamesworkshop and the sponsors that allow this behavior to continue are allowing themselves to associated with criminal activities. To any other critics who have also received death threat from this man, call his local authorities for questioning. And let me remind everyone that these actions of his are only the tip of the iceberg. To Gamesworkshop, he has made a following on CZcams that is close to your very own. On CZcams. WHY? Because your lore videos are boring(no offense), leaving parts of the community to funnel into this channel. On his live feeds he getting large donations from individuals, that money could be going directly into your own pockets. If you want to direct your customers into profitable lore videos, then GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT. Write a script that you are passionate about, cut the check and sent it to Superman. If you can some how pull that off, you will make a believer out of me and many others. I would even help with the cost by going back to my local Warhammer store and buy me some blood angels.
To my close friends that were offended and then told by this man to shrug it off, I’m sorry. This disturbed man can not change his ways because he had years to prove it.
And finally to you Majorkill- A dweeb who hides in sleeveless under armour is still a dweeb. You’ll never get rid me me
Last time I checked, Dark Angels are trying to free him.
Where did you read that ? I’d love to have a look myself sounds epic !
@@ZiGGi03 Rage of Asmodai
MajorKill isn't Omnipotent confirmed.
\s
I think Ezekiel learns about him from a demon
@@hotshot6674
“Asmodai!”
“INTERROGATE?!”
“Our assumptions are confirmed!”
“WHAT”
“He has a suspicious book!”
“BOOK”
“He’s in cahoots with the Fallen!”
“FALLEN”
“Make him repent!”
*Asmoday storms toward the Fabricator-General*
“REPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-“
Will you make a video on each legion's best accomplishment/battle/victory? Counting unification wars, crusade and heresy
Would be interesting.
@@anzaca1 Thank you. Would also give more attention to the legions that got shafted during the heresy, like Iron Hands, Raven Guard, Salamanders, Space Wolves, Thousand Sons ecc.
I last heard that Dark Angels are currently attempting to save him after learning about his fate.
Rare Modern Dark Angels W
Lore on the imperial navy, Mutants, and Ecclesiarchy
Yeah another video on Abhumans or mutants like the unfortunate unfleshed would be cool.
Voidborn
Imperial navy absolutely
Grey knights need more love.
Rumor is they're getting some story updates and a few model refreshes in the short term
Nuh-uh
The f*** you mean “nuh-uh”?
And they need to retcon the stupid months of shame bullshit, the fact some Space Wolf just oneshots the chapter master is retarded to the max.
Hammer of Daemons is my all time favorite 40K Novel. I love the daemon world Ben Counter created plus I'm a big fan of the Grey Knights. Definitely look it up if you haven't already read it.
Epimetheus has no mouth and he must scream.
aint no way you made Doom Slayer as a Grey Knights
From the Umbra plains he stalks
Doomguy had to be nerfed, otherwise he'd kill everything in the warp.
@@anzaca1 giving that.... THING... psychic powers was the worst thing anyone could have done... I mean man was a walkin- i mean running Custodian in green. I mean holy fuck the amount of Terror. Enough to make even the most stalwart of the traitorous Primarchs Absolutely shit their britches live on WWE. and to top it off it was pure rage, real rage, from deep within... true hatred... not discounting angron... but he kinda had help from the nails... and Khorne
I made myself a Doom Slayer model as a GK, hes sick as fuck
Heartbreaking. I can’t remember which book after Padorax, Modern Dark Angels teleported onto the ship where he was being held. Walked right past his holding cel and him.
*Pandorax🤦♂️
Damn
Good on you for hiring real artists for all of your endeavors. The thumbnail is rad.
Loving the increased content output. Appreciate you dude, keep up the hard work
a blank is connected with him
nailed' what if this union would become beneficial?
his powers would grow and the blanks in turn and somewhere between the agony
they learn to communicate no warp spawn could satop them
"We need to escape"
"i'll be the eyes"
That would be a great story!
Do a video talking about the most famous 3-4 successor chapters of each first founding chapter
That would be the Second Founding chapters.
Just a note - Dark Angels didnt "basically kill Cthulhu" during the ragnan wars, the "Cthulhu" stuff happened during the Harrowing
It’s implied the Rangdan were just really powerful xenos who had the ability to revive themselves. Powerful, but not like Cthulhu.
@robertnelson9599 what kinda psychological level shit do you deem as "Cthulhu"
We don't know much about the Rangdan xenocide beyond that it was extremely hectic and involved tentacles
aka Cthulhu :p
@@majorkill i always appreciate some tentacles, but rangdan were described as "vulpine". Check videos from The Pontius he explains it well and gives sources
The Grey Slayer is a fucking amazing model Majorkill. I love Doom lore almost as much as I love Warhammer
Superb video as always @majorkill.
Could you make a video dedicated to the Navigators, the major houses, their politics, relation to the overall Imperium and factions,
I don't think anyone ever accused Abaddon of being a skilled interrogator.
A character is only as smart as the person writing them
His approach is flawless. With a victim unable to age or die, Abaddon has Eternity to break him in.
@@Kristian.B.Kristiansen At which point, any knowledge of use will be utterly out of date, and given how even Primarchs have been broken by chaos, breaking a former Dark Angel rather than a genuine Grey Knight proves nothing at all.
@@arionofotherworld The info is of little value. MajorKill mentioned it, but the novel itself (Pandorax) places little value on it. Abaddon’s aim is to break him and show off his new servant.
@@Kristian.B.Kristiansen Which proves nothing, since even Primarchs can be broken, but i guess Abaddon needs the ego boost.
That mini is frickin awesome!
Petition for majorkill to start using more than one music track for his videos
A video of the top ten community made wholesome moments would be great
This was the first time I felt the grim dark in a while! Cool
A video on what would have happened if the Raptor project succeeded would be crazy cool!
IIRC during the Damnation of Pythos, at the end of the book, The Leader of the Grey Knights gets shitty at Asrael because he thinks they've stolen Epimetheus due to Dark Angels heresy shenanigans so atleast the Grey Knights know he is still alive
Is there enough lore on the men of iron uprising or the dark age of technology weapons to make a video explaining some of the weapons and vehicles used during that time like the cannon used on Armageddon? It’s always noted how powerful humanity was at that time and I’d love to see a comparison video between terminator armor or vehicles from the current setting and whatever armor and vehicles they used during the men of iron uprising and see how powerful it all was.
Nothing like a Major vid to make this hellish day better. Fuck yeah mate !!
Sorry you're having a Hellish day. Hope tomorrow is better.
Day 17: What if Omegon returned to the setting?, what would happen?. How would guilliman and the lion react?. Would be a pretty cool video idea
Depends entirely on what side Omegon is on.
If he showed up nobody would even know ! lol, just kidding. It sounds like a good video idea sure.
The Lion: Okay if you are Omegon, but if you are not... How can we tell that you are Omegon...
Alpha Legion: What??
What if they released Alpharius/Omegon's secretly kept triplet brother Epsilonius from the Custodes guarded cells beneath the Imperial palace!
Sadly, only my head canon, but I think it could have some potentially interesting storylines! >XD
I just googled ephimeteus after i saw him in a meme and than i see that the new video is about him. You’re truly a wizard majorkill
I feel like Grey Knights are unlikely to fall to Chaos by virtue of simply being highly powerful psykers, who had been trained by a whole order of similar individuals, who stood in Emperor's presence and who battled demons daily.
*They simply don't believe in "gods"*
To them Chaos is just another xeno, no different from any other.
A what if video about the primares where a thing from the beginning, how would this affect the great crusade and heresy? How would this affect the legions especially the thousand sons, emporers children, blood angels and space wolves with their now more stable geneseed?
Day 62 of asking for a dedicated series of videos detailing in depth the Lion El'Heresy
Looking good dude, hair looks great! Keep kicking ass!
Yeah! Lets get a video on Chaos Terminators!!
Appreciate your content
Ngl this is definitely one of the better majorminis, especially in comparison to an older one like the lukewarm sharkdaddy
Could you do a lore video on how each Primarch's homeworld is doing in the current setting?
And then people ask why Chaos considered worse than any other faction in the setting. Its like if most mentally insane, psychotic and maniacal degenerates in the galaxy also had magic powers and 4 patron gods, not to mention their endgame being a collapse of the universe into Warp, which would basically end all life as we know it and end all chances of future life ever appearing.
Are dark Angel major minis coming soon? Would love to have some more space knights. Love the video, keep up the good work 💚
If they ever did conclude this line, maybe he gets rescued or something - it could be a cool way to debut a new GK Dreadnought variant
Love the new look!
did you just rubbed your eye majorkill in the end of your intro? and keep up the good work
He could be zahariel as the lord of change recognised him and claimed he shouldn't be there. Also when chasing the changeling through the rock i think it is azreal gets a vision of breaking into a dark cell and rescuing him
Hello Majorkill,
Would you kindly make some lore videos on the Imperial Truth, the Imperial Creed, the Ecclesiarchy? Pretty please? Thank you.
Imperial Navy vid would be sick mate
The Botswanan militant, that I prefer to engage with for my 40k lore, has already told me about Epimetheus, but this is a good refresher. Thanks pal
@majorkill A video on each of the primarch’s favourite food would be cool. Also a video on how each of the pirmarch’s would react to being implanted with the butcher’s nails would be cool as well.
Bro fkin with two copyrights with that mini lol
I Love Funny shit from the setting, any chance you could do another video about some of the less Grindark parts of the stories?
Damn major i hope chemo is going well. You will get through this 🙏🙏
A "Scheißenload" of people... didn't know I need it, but I think it's my new favorite word now. Oh, and for everyone who doesn't want to know, the letter ß, is simply our weird german sharp s.
RIP Epimetheus, you will be remembered in the Halls of Glory. ;,-(
Dont worry, now that blackrock has their grippers in GW, dei will save the universe.
I've never collected any models, I just like the books and lore. But that Adeptus Doomguy is pretty rad
Did you get your hair done in Aus or go anywhere else mate? I'm looking around myself but in the UK it's crazy money.
Looks great btw you daft Aussie! x
Nobody has a good "every ordinatus explained" video. At least one could one shot the planet terra if mars really felt like it.
Thsnk you for this one especially. I loved the audio book of pythos. Im a grey knight player. I love the lore and always hoped thst something would shake out of this. Its huge. Wether he is a personal character or not id imagine something eill ha e to come of it. Was hopi g to see it in the gathering storm or the 13th. :(
Anyway always better to hear badnews from a mate ty
Can you make a video about the different imperial knight houses?
Might wanna check the description again, mate.
the gn with the flamebard sword who is that? and where can i find the art?
There is only one warband which can rescue him. Hydra Dominatus.
Been at work all day and opened up this video. Saw the mini and had to get it. Massive Grey Knights fan so thank you greatly for making one. Will also be the first mini I ever paint.
Last bit I heard about Epomethius is in Rage of Asmodai, Asmodai seemed to be trying to find him but I haven’t read anything since that indicated where Asmodai was last at trying to find him. This might be a clue as to Epomethius’ identity as why would Asmodai be trying to track down an always loyal Angel if it was Nemial, it could be Zahariel.
Video Idea: What if the surviving loyalist primarchs never went missing after the Horus Heresy.
maybe after he was taken to fulgrim, Pink snake decided to sent him to sleansesh by himself and he was the knight in the silver armor that almost get and acquiered the last sword of the eldars but he fall and get corupted this way.
I would have liked if you went into deeper detail about the stasis part if there is more.
I had no idea they had gene seeds from the emperor, that makes it much more epic.
Should definitely do a video on Aenond thiel. The dude with the red helmet.
Nice
Make a video on the best places to live in warhammer
Can you do a video on who you think the men of Gold are and the men of iron and their legacy in the galaxy .
Hate to be that guy, but it's really Malcador that founded the grey knights off of Garro's back. Epimetheus is listed in the lore as 'An unnamed former Astartes of the Dark Angels'. He is no founder, just one of the 1st 9 knight's errant that were chosen by Malcador.
"Demon slaying shotgun" I see what you did there @majorkill
I clicked on this video because of the commissioned art. Big shout to them!
Was wondering but is there some blank titans in the lore ( one doing reverse discharge like nuclear godzilla )
Kaldor Draigo would have saved Epimetheus. By yelling "NO SUN!"
And do not try to escape, or you will suffer even worse!
It’d be awesome to see him become an imperial demon or overcome the blank and hybridize with it
That artwork is pretty good, from an accurate description standpoint if not a moral one LOL, hoped this poor mf would get a lore video sometime
Majorkill, discuss the 40k Warped Origins AU pls, it's a really cool fanfiction!
In the book Draigo thinks that Azrael took Epimetheus, he was so angry he punched him in the face.
Not touching a character another author has developed when said author is still actively working on the character is one thing, it makes sense since that author has plans for the character which you can't know, now, not touching a character another author has developed but has since stopped working on is just stupid, it literally defeats the point of having that many interesting characters since you can only use a small portion of them in the first place...
Major- and I say this with utmost respect and as a bro- your haircut looks like it could be on a mini. It's that iconic.
Wait, but there's this character that, if I recall correctly, is only mentioned once or twice called "The silver knight" who is supposedly a grey knight that's been corrupted by Sllanesh. Could that perhaps be the same character as Epimetheus?
Military forces of the mechanicum/Mechanicus/dark mechicum would be pretty cool
The welcome home "Grey slayer"
Hmmm, something tells me that Grey Slayer mini loves to Rip & Tear… 🤔
Don't forget his BOOMSTICK😅
Hi guys , new to warhammer 40k any idea how can I start reading lore and where
Love this lore! Thanks Major
We saw Ragnar Blackmane again, I’ll be it briefly
It'd be nice to get a proper Gray Knights omnibus. The one I naively bought when I was in middle school is, uh... Well, it's a book of all time... I don't even keep it on the shelf.
Janus is a Thousand Son Sorcerer (one of the best) who, after warp shenanigans with Malcador ended up becoming a whole new being - The Last Son of Prospero (long live the thousand sons) Its only right that ordo malleus was founded by those touched by the warp - who better to defeat daemons than those who could once conjur them
Yeah long live the thousand sons as real ass heretic who where tryna do good but had to turn to not completely die by Russ's plot armour
I am too deranged to find any of this truly horrific...
the current grey knights or at least kaldor draigo should know about his exitence because kaldor talked to him and knew who he was
¡¡¡PANDORAX BOOK SPOILERS!!! Epimetheus is one of the protagonist. He was on suspended animation, guarding the emerald cave demon portal. When he is freed, he is deeply sad because all his friends already died or disapeared so even when draigo tells him to go back with them, Epimitheus mentions he plans to go to eye of terror to die in combat after the campagin is finished. In any moment he appears in the frontlines because there were also the dark angels on pandorax and when he is captured by Abadon, Draigo confronts Azrael (and punches him n the face) because he thinks he's the one that captured him, hinting that epimetheus was a fallen angel (there are also other hints but more vague). Abadon sews his eyes and mouth shuts because of a promise he made him and swears that he will corrupt him even if another 10k years have to pass.
What are the different afterlifes in the Warhammer universe?
I can only assume the grey knights would blast Nico Moreno while clapping daemon cheeks. Insert: “THIS IS WHAT IT FEELS LIKE ..TO BE GREY” DOOF DOOF 🤣
It was great meeting you that night mate! Still in disbelief 🤩😆
Surprised I haven’t seen a Doom Slayer kit bash until now.
I do not hate the idea of the idea of Grey Knights needing to have hundreds of years needed to corrupt them
One must imagine Epimethus happy...
Cool
In the eye of Ezekiel. A demon shows Ezekiel a vision of the dark angels and grey knights rescuing Epimetheus.
