40 Facts and Lore on the Soul Drinkers in Warhammer 40K Spacemarine Chapter 

Note, they were declared ex commicatus before they suffered their mutations.

One of the greatest tales in the 40K series, in my opinion.

My favourite chapter, thank you so much for posting this!! So little respect for such a dedicated group. They pursued a different path to the Emperor's cause and ultimately, were one of the few able to resist temptation and defeat chaos at its own game.

The Soul Drinker series was my first 40k novel that I read. Love the video!

I recall at the end of the Soul Drinkers novel chain a Blood Angel apothecary told the court on the Phalanx the Soul Drinkers were found not to be descendants of Rogal Dorn. Was it an altered corpse the Blood Angels picked up, with the bombshell data meant to break Sarpedon at the trial? Or did Rogal Dorn pick up a loyalist group of space marines from another legion, much like Roboute did with the space marines allegedly earmarked toward the missing primarchs? Or did the Alpha Legion or a wily other traitor legion infiltrate the Fists' ranks? /thought the Soul Drinkers might be Night Lords loyalists, as Curze had that cannibalism power and had a hatred of corruption, while Sarpedon's psychological psyker abilities and quick strike mentality with his troops was more in line with NL than Fists.

...For a Soul Drinker takes all ills of the galaxy upon his shoulders and as long as they remain he cannot rest. I think I may have found my new favorite chapter! Well done

That's some "Heart of Darkness" type stuff. Great video as usual!

You do not have all the facts correct here. The Soul Drinkers were not "obsessed" with recovering the Spear. It was their Chapter Relic and theirs by right.

the soul drinkers story is really sad.. but they still faught..

My friend sent me the soul drinkers omnibus. This was the only recreational book that I read start to finish.

Yes!!! My favorite boys get one!!

"Have you got any Soul?" -: Sarpa Don!

Friendly reminder the Soul Drinkers did nothing wrong and still do nothing wrong

Big soul drinkers fan here. I have a theory on their origin. A test of their gene-seed showed that they weren't descended from Rogal Dorn, and yet, they have a SUPER clear origin, and know exactly where they come from, so far as being descended from a specific group of the imperial fists fleet based shock attack branch of the legion right? I don't think it makes sense for them to know their origin to that specific of a degree, only for it to be completely untrue. So I think instead there is a key element being left out. Legions were semi-fluid in the olden days. There are numerous references to squads from legions that turned traitor who instead remained loyal, and also references to the 2 lost legions, and both of these groups, the lost legions and the loyalists from the traitor legions, had the same fate. They were integrated into other chapters. While the legion that usually received these outsiders were the ultramarines, it is more than likely that the others received a few as well. I think this is by far the most likely origin for the Soul Drinkers. only having lost part of that story, their shameful origin before joining the imperial fist.

The Chapter that's hosts the 40k Imperium Players Ball. Purple Armor, pimp cup encrusted with jewels is the sigil, Brother A Pimp Named Slickback is their Reclusiarch, and their Motto is Emperors Up Xenos Down. I've finally found my brothers.

fascinating chapter.

'purity through hate, dignity through rage!'

Did not know the space marines had court martials.But considering they are a branch of the imperial military it makes sense.This was interesting.

Spider Marine, Spider Marine

Definitely cover the Angels Sanguine

One of the most interesting chapters. Shame they wrote them into oblivion.

That was fascinating. And sad.

Hmmmm...hey One Mind Syndicate...just curious but have any of the Factions in the 40k Universe travelled outside of their current galaxy???...maybe The Emperor of Man sent a fleet out in secret?

Amazing, as always.

Sarpeedon? Seriously. A space marine chapter master called sir pissed on

are those guys who may have been transferred to the Imperial Fists from the 11th legion? I heard that there were such rumors. :)

Ain't got shit on the Mantis Warriors.

Hey I know that the Soul Drinkers are now gone or banished, and I probably already know the answer to this but what about the Soul Drinkers serving with the Deathwatch, what happened to them after all of this?

Soul bois now legon of dammed

Say it with me Sar puh Don not Sarpeedin

Does 40k and warhammer fantasy exist in the same universe? I like to think Warhammer 40k is set 40,000 years before the events of Warhammer fantasy.

Ha, found it!! Yes!!

REJOICE BATTLE-BROTHERS!!!! I asked so many times for you to stop draging the words, and pronounce the words properly, without dividing and acentuate the silabes...YOU MADE IT! GOOD JOB, IM PROUD OF YOU ;) this video, I could understand you without trying to deduce the words you were saying!
