What once started as a simple smut thread, soon developed into a different, mostly serious retelling of the Heresy, with an previously unseen scramble of the Loyalists and Traitor legions, alongside new concepts, troops and history! This page currently serves mainly as an introduction and mother page to the project, but may develop into an index as it expands

The man who sold the world

TLDR, What has changed

• During the scattering of the primarchs, some of them ended up turing female
• The Emperor didn't plan for Female Primarchs, it sorta happened as the Gestation pods were carried through the warp.
• The Loyalist and Traior list has been completely scrambled
• While we are mostly sticking to the canon events in the Heresy (Isstvan still happens, Prospero burns, etc), many of them have been retooled and taken into a complete different direction to accomodate the setting changes. A greater overview of the changes will be added below
• The backstory for some of the Primarchs has been retooled

Rules so far

1. Male Primarchs have Male Legions.
2. Female Primarchs typically have Co-Ed Legions.
3. The Emperor remains the same
4. All marines originating from Terra (Pre-Finding of their Primarch) are male
5. We are semi-sticking to major canon events in the Heresy. This means no senseless changes out of nowhere and every major change to timeline needs a good explanation
6. Despite the above, rule of cool still applies, if its awesome and fits within the setting and or it`s themes, add it!

The Primarchs Themselves

Lion El'Jonson - Infatuated to the point of obssesion with his sister Lara Russ, and the primarch to fall under Slaanesh`s influence.

Felicia - Due to never picking up the blade during the assault of the Laeran temple, retained most of her polite,mostly trustworthy personatilty. The burden of the blade fell up instead with Captain Lucius of the 13th Company, who failed to resist the corrupting influence of the deamon held within the blade.

Persephone - Spent the earlier years of her life in almost complete isolation due to her status as a woman, having to sneak out of her room to read books and practice mathematics. Remained loyalist due to actually finding a semblance of importance and worth among her loyalist brother`s and sisters.

Hualan Khan - Was raised in her younger ears in the insides of a city-state under the constant threat of Talskarr raids. After leaving with a small army, she was able to find peace and subjugate most of the unruly steppe tribes, and make them join her forces. but when she returned from her conquest, she found herself barred at the gates of the city she left to protect. The inhabitants had judged her unfit to live amongst then anymore, as no woman who would ride alongside a barbarian horde is ever to enter the city. Looking behind her, Hualan did indeed see a barbarian horde; however, they were HER barbarian horde, and the men on the walls could not see their own brethren among them. This angered Hualan, and she once again demanded that her army be welcomed into the city. Once again, her army's entry was denied. And so, like she had done many times to much smaller settlements and tribes that denied her, she put it to the torch

Vulkan - Raised On Nocturne as a blacksmith, Vulkan's comfy upbringing instilled him the the unshakable Nocturne values of craftsmanship, Kindness, selflessness, self reliance and most importantly; the importance of Family. After destroying the Dark Eldar webway gates, The god emperor of mankind re-discovered Vulkan after besting him in a traditional Nocturne competition of Slaying a fire Salamander. Vulkan was overjoyed to meet his father and learn that he had 19 other brothers and sisters, doing his best to befriend and get along with all of them, acting as a caring big brother to all of them, along with Hera Luprecal, offering advise, encouragement or his time to listen to them. When Open Rebellion was declared by the traitor primarchs, Hera, Corax, Ferrus manus and Vulkan were sent to Isstvan V with their legions to deal with them,F falling into the trap, Hera Luprecal sacrificed herself to allow her three brothers escape. affected by this massacre, Vulkan approached the Vostroyans who refused to send soldiers to help in the great crusade, convincing them to join the cause, Vulkan added in the defense of Terra against the traitor's assault. Saddened that his siblings had turned against one another and witnessing all the innocent lives lost in the conflict, Vulkan vowed to remove himself from any side, forming a secret enclave with his salamanders and Vostroyan army, becoming legends across the galaxy as they appear at random conflict zones to rescue civilians, before disappearing again.
