“Trillions of souls were inhaled by the God of Pleasure’s first breath.”
Oh great, now I’m imagining Slaanesh pouring a pile of Eldari souls onto a table, curling a 100-Throne bill into a tube, and then.....
That picture is quite likely more accurate than you think.
Yeah, that's pretty much canon tbh.
That's a very apt metaphor for what happened tbh
I'm down to try a little, I don't think I'd start with a rail though I'll start off with a few key bumps see how I feel after that.
Knowing Slaanesh, it most likely was not inhaled through the nose or mouth...

Their Farseers were probably too busy contemplating and lamenting how thoroughly and completely doomed they are to care about one meta-trans-multiversal probe from a mere omnidimensional research institution.
When they do the same for the Drukhari, I’m sure Vect will probably find it amusing and offer the Mon’Keigh a few shiny beads in exchange for the information necessary to enslave and torture our entire dimension.

Avatars of Khaine in the lore are walking killing machines, but when playing them or reading a book with one in it, they are soley there to get one shot.
They are quite strong in Dawn Of War II
@@CousinJesse1 Well, in DoW 2 they were a strong enemy within the confines of the game and in comparison to other enemies you fight, sure. But when you think about in a broader context, then this means that you could beat an Avatar of Khaine with just three Terminators. Which actually makes the DoW 2 avator a quite weak enemy in comparison to what we know from this universe. There were Orks, Nids or Necron that were harder to kill in the Wh40k universe and don't get me started about Primarchs.
There is always hope for a buff, one day.......
Though for the books that's another issue. Honestly we need more Xenos novels, have an epic tale and story of an Exarch sacrificing themselves to awaken Khaine and then it shall reach the enviable status of badass
Maybe
One can hope
There pretty strong in DOW I :)
Yeah they definitely suffer from the 'Worf Effect'. How to best display how powerful my new bad guy is? Have them kill an Avatar of Khaine.
*Eldar Farseers:*
"Our plan to get a couple Soulstones by causing an Ork invasion of a Mon Keigh Hiveworld, pulling the 'Manrippers' Space Marine chapter away from a T'au colony that secretly is a Tombworld of the Egyptech Necron Dynasty, allowing the Necrons to slaughter the Tau living there and allowing us to steal back the Soulstones from a T'au laboratory has succeeded!

I see Templin has played tabletop 40K at least once since 1998.
I couldn’t help but chuckle when he said that line
Are they that good in TTP?
@@thomastakesatollforthedark2231 they are really really bad... in lore they suffer from the WORST worf syndrome, and on TT its rules have allways been very underwhelming. also the model is old and tiny....
@@bluestormpony Well, underwhelming since 3rd edition. It was pretty good in 2nd, where it was on par with Bloodthirsters.
Yeah, in second edition it was worth every one of its 300 points. It was easily on par with a Greater Daemon (which is basically what it is...) and was completely immune to Flame, Plasma and Melta weaponry due to it's aetheric, molten form.
It's basically just a jobber now. Big, expensive, impressive-seeming but easy to kill.
Even in lore it's used just as something for a Space Marine to beat up to show how great he is.
Imagine training for centuries to be the a warrior then being shot and killed by some imperial gaurd conscript
Lol
Or blasted by a Basilisk company.
or being on the receiving end of my Bolter 😂
@@OFFICIALSOLARMY I know I'm clearly biased, but the Eldar generally deploy small amounts of troops, on the tabletop the costs of Aspect Warriors are similar to those of Astartes, they share many of the same stats, and in the fluff they often perform similar feats. Point being, guardsmen are typically extremely unlikely to do the job unless massed in huge numbers, in which case they can also kill Astartes and various other big name foes.
@Oswald Mosley It is entertaining, though uncommon, given that 40k is a universe about who has the largest muscles, the biggest sword and the most kills. It's all demigods everywhere, for a more grounded setting I might suggest Dune or Warhammer Fantasy, where things are a lot less exaggerated.
It is weird that you'd support the Imperium though, given that the Emperor was an atheist, pan-human globalist who didn't care about sexuality, race or culture. He obliterated any humans on Earth that refused to bow to his humanist agenda.

"Ancient sadness. Star-city circling the burning nest. The silver horde has re-arisen. Kaelis-Ra awakes afresh, the ancient war resumed, spiderscuttle sorrow, all interlinked. Death in wraithsword, spirits infinity-bound. All is cyclical, all goes round yet remains the same. Always the dirges of echoes, always the bonework reflections. There is nothing new; just regret and impotence. We are lost in the dark, and there is no morning."
- Astropath D'Reyx, psychic reading of Eldar artifact
I always loved that Piece of Artwork at 8:57, cause it shows one of the rare examples of Eldar & Humans working together willingly in 40k
Any idea why Tempestus Scions are in the webway?
@@callumunga5253 IIRC, its from Rise of the Primarch. Cawl & the survivors from Cadia had fled to a Planet called Hymnos and were about to make their last stand at the base of an inactive Webway-Gate, when the Gate activated and the newly founded Ynnari came out to help them.
I just noticed
The eldar, tau and imperium teaming up would be awesome
Craftworld Iyanden and the imperium get along actually, so much so that on iyanden there is an inquisiton base and the inquisiton helped saved spirit stones from slanesh after the tyranids all but destroyed the craftworld.

I love elves in every setting, but... Space elves? In the grim darkness of the 41st millennium? On a level of it's own man...
I'm surprised there was no Eldar interference in this recording considering the Inquisition and Necron Collector hacked the feed before.
Why would they interfere? They have nothing to gain from that
Well theres no heresy here or anything tht discredit them
They didn't need to interrupt because they were in control of the entire video
@@soffren they probably had a shiruken pistol to the narrator's head.
@@c0ya1 rather a dil----do in his arse......given their nature of bdsm
Safe to asssume that the Eldari allowed the Institute on this one to safely store and expand knowledge of their race.
Great vid as always and we all can't wait for invicta s2.
Templin Institute probably has access to the Black Library
@@CBRN-115 agreed
Humans and eldar weren't always enemies, they even assisted during the horus heresy.
Eldar aren't all too fussed about people knowing their history, usually knowing about someone makes you less likely to actually want to fight them.
I wonder if Eldar get uncomfortable and defensive whenever this is brought up…
*Humanity:* The Chaos Gods are _your_ fault.
*Eldar:* Hush now child, you know not of what you speak…
Your mighty race has fallen into disrepair, hunting down old relics of a bygone era. It is only a shadow of its former glory.
*Humanity [pointing at Eye of Terror]:* Ahem… …
Only one Chaos God is the fault of the Eldar, Slaanesh. The other three are much older and don't have much to do with the Eldar.
they were created by the war in heaven.
Humanity has also lead to their awakening.
Mankind can be just as psychic as eldar.
You will think that will be brought up more often.
Eldar: Alright so what?
Fallen into despair? Spoken from the race that cant field enough men on the battlefield and have to rely on other races to fight their war. Even the Tau can build armies and they are space commie

" We have a few suggestions…"
I have to admit, I absolutely love that GW has given races new names rather than the 'human' version. Asuryani, Aledari, Drukhari feel so much more unique now, rather than just 'space elves'. Amazing how a simple rebranding completely changed my perception of this faction.
Sorry to ruin it for ya but, the only real reason GW did that was to copyright the names
"Space Elves" has its place, but perhaps not in modern 40k. I feel that, in some stories, the idea of elves in space has value. But, as a fan of Tolkien, I would say that the Aeldari almost resemble grey aliens more than elves at this point.
@@tinobemellow More like old fairytales (according to tolkien fairy and elf are somewhat sinonimous, in different languages). Back in ye old days, fairies and elves where somewhat ambivalent creatures, whose actions where often unpredictable and terrifying to humans (Morgan le Fay was a fairy). 40k seems to lean into this idea of pre Tolkien elves, ambigous creatures with plans that are often confusing or impossible to decypher by humans.
The Eldar,the race that gave the expression: "you´ve done fucked it up!" a whole new meaning.
The freaking Warhammer 40k galaxy is going so much more intense every single time templin institute makes a video out of them
"Even if we can not save ourselves, we will save you!"
And to enter that Craftworld you need... *Your library card*
**Angry Ahriman noises**
Beautiful description of the Eldar. Fabulous art. Thank you, Templin. As ever, you are the librarians of alternate worlds.
The Asuryani are all well and good, but my favorite Aeldari faction are the warrior-poets known as the Rillietann... the Harlequins.
All hail the honk god
@@jefrosiers8880 Yeah, the Harlequins "live in a society," but only if you take them and any of this GRIMDARK nonsense way too seriously.
Remember that 40K is based on TOYS. Little bits of plastic you use to play a game.
@@thetribunaloftheimaginatio5247 true, that is a thing a lot of people apparently forget
The eldar need to team up with the Tau and the Imperium, Maybe even the necrons. Only then, will they defeat the tyranids and chaos
The Templin Institute is one of the best channels on CZcams.
Sorry, quick point of correction:
Most Craftworlds do not have the ability to enter the Webway, as extremely few Webway entrances and passages are large enough or stable enough to accommodate an entire Craftworld. There are scarce few exceptions, the only notable Craftworld within the Webway being the enigmatic Black Library. Rather, most Craftworlds rely on Farseer predictions to evade direct contact with other races -- space, after all, is vast and mostly empty. Most Craftworlds' connection to the Webway comes in the form of in-built Webway portals that are part of their superstructure, allowing everything from ships to troops access to the labyrinthine corridors of the ancient network.

@@cutezachie -- And?
I want the Eldar to have somewhat of a resurgence, just like the Necrons have had. Why couldnt the laughing god come back as a sub faction? Or whatever else, I mean they've already wanted to get rid of Slaanesh for family friendly audiences lmao.
Well, we got the Ynnari. Problem is, they came at the price of an entire Craftworld getting demolished, and they seem to be equally interested in deading other Eldar as they are in deading their enemies. Would be cool if Isha got away from Nurgle, and as the goddess of birth, life and the hearth become an opposition to Ynnead and his death cultists.
The Laughing God is already a faction
That's why the Harlequins are an army
An army that needs more models but you do with what you can at the moment
@@kreol1q1q true, though as the plot with Ynnead develops I'm sure we will see the Aeldari resurgence both good and bad, traditionalist and radical.
All we need is a range refresh and then we will see the lore taking center stage for once
And maybe a new model for Khaine so he doesn't job as much
Ah yes, the only thing that can defeat chaos and grimdark. The desire to be marketable.
15:20 "Farseers, I wish you to divine the reason why I, a soul shard of a divine being, keep being annihilated left and right. It doesn't make any sense, I am a war god, for Asuyan's sake"
"The runes seem to call it The Worf Effect"
"Hmmm, I do not know what that means, but I am certain its Lorgar's fault, somehow"
"Its a pretty safe bet, sire"
My spirit stone quivers with excitement.
Hands down, this is the best short introduction to Eldar Lore on CZcams. I was going to make a similar video, but then I found this one.
I can almost hear Overlord Vect laughing in amused pity at this talk about the 'God of the Dead'.
Loving all the Warhammer content! Loving more that it's about the Xenos!
Fantastic work as always Templin Institute, your notifications send me running here the moment I see them.
I like how its implied Khegoracks ultimate jest is bringing life, to a god of death. Its the ultimate irony (in 40K at least) that a god of death is the last hope for the life of an entire species.
These videos are so _good_ . They're an absolutely perfect way of introducing 40k lore if you don't want to get super detailed into it (at least not until later heheheh). I'm gonna try introducing them to my friends when they keep asking what's so good about Warhammer
Astartes Project should be a given when introducing 40k.
How do you make these videos all sound so epic? Such weight to the writing and narration
The Institute has access to dimension hopping tech. They can peer into any universe
I really love this guys voice, perfect for this kind of work.
Your continued struggle is meaningless.
Abandon your pain.
Abandon your fear.
Abandon your hate.
Abandon your life.

Thanks but I want to have a soul.
Just sleep, sleepy boi.
Man loved the Black Library ending, Cegorach always gets the last laugh
Every time my notification bell tells me about Templin Institute doing a 40k video.... shrieks in excitement!!
So happy to see the Templin institue do my favourite Warhammer faction! Really made my day.

#2 Cegorach is pronounced se-gore-ac. The c is pronounced with the s sound.

More like imperium and Aeldari (Eldar) vs chaos. Mainly because of the imperium and Eldar peace treaty
@@andytorres6052 And also with the legions of Macragge under the Primarch providing assistance its going to be epic with Space Marine/Imperial forces alongside the craftworld and accompanying fleet

Super dope! Always awesome to hear just how badass the ol eldar are, delivered with the gravitas it deserves!
This video was beautiful!!
Hope you guys do each of the Craftworlds some time soon, once you're done covering the mayor factions!
Eldars; the haughty space elves who single-handedly turned the entire universe into the utter GRIMDARK state it is in, yet they still claim to be superior to all others. The stench of their hypocrisy is truly unsurpassed!
To quote possibly one of the greatest youtube series there is, If the Emporer had a text-to-speech device:
"This was the point in time in which the Eldar managed to murderfuck the chaos god Slaanesh into existence..."

When in doubt, blame the Eldari.
In any fucked up setting containing elves, it"s a sure bet that whatever is going wrong, the elves caused it. This coming from a guy who plays elves in nearly every setting he can.
Come to think of it - Asuryani overall kind of remind me the Wights from Stargate:Atlantis.... or other way round.
Loved it! Great work!
The Asuryani are like the Jedi of 40k.
More like the Chiss
Terra & the Imperium of Man is a realm of madness & despair...
Yet the corpse Emperor protects..
😭
You better believe he does, heretic
I think now that Robute Gulliman starts to cooperate with the Aeldari there might be some kind of united front against the forces of chaos possible. Which would free up substantial forces as many fronts will be pacified and can now be thrown against the forces of Chaos.
Always wonderful to receive a new templin video notification
Finally a video about the Eldar :)
Part of this feels less like an exploration of the Eldar race and culture, and more like an exploration of the Eldar section of the WH40K miniatures catalog.
I rly love these 40k vids
just saw your channel in my recommended and WOW you guys are fucking GOD TIER. I went back to yalls first videos and GOD DAMN all your videos are top quality
thank you for making this video on my favourite race
Love the in-depth analysis of Warhammer 40k's various armies. Just hoping to learn more about the Chaos Space Marines and their factions. (perhaps one on the Word Bearers or the Sons of Horus as they were key players in the Horus Heresy)
Wow, incredible, I can’t wait for season two.
I’ve love the Eldar books by Gav Thorpe and is one of the reasons I have an eldar army
Murder fucking a god into existence. Now that's the Warhammer I know and love.
Eldar have such a cool background story 😍😍😍 my gooooood!
Love both the content of the video and your really cool intro!
Its so good to see a video about the lore of my favourite WH faction. Long live the aeldari
I am one of the few who would welcome the reborn Aeldari Empire.
But An Alliance is needed between the Races of the Galaxy against the Great Devourer and Ruinous Powers of the Immaturium.
Only then can a True Victory can be within reach
Gotta remember they feel _way_ more than humans. Imagine how you feel after getting an A on a test, now times that by 20 and you get what they feel. Now imagine how sex feels for them.
Cool vid, thanks
This is brilliant! Please do a dedicated Dark Eldar video!!!
I feel like Eldar have some of the deepest lore in 40k. Space Marines too, but its all a bit same-y in comparison.
A really good lore summary ... and I'm very hard to please on this subject :D
This video is Vindicare approved.
Best looking models. Love the slick Japanese vibe in their design
