Which primarch are you?


Recommended Posts

Ok everyone, here's a chance for a bit of honest introspection, it occurred to me randomly today. As HH readers would know, each primarch basically embodies an aspect of human psychology/emotion, be it choleric anger, burning ambition, guarded secrecy etc.

 

Just to set the scene for being impartial here, my favourite legions are in fact the Space Wolves, Dark Angels, and Raven Guard... However, I see myself as Fulgrim. Yeah, I'm not a fan of the Emperor's Children (I'd much rather follow Khorne than Slaanesh), but I see in myself Fulgrim's perfectionist nature and borderline self-resentment upon failure. So throw yourselves out there, which of the mighty primarchs do you identify most with?

I'd say Magnus, purely by philosophical outlook. In very basic terms I totally agree with his "There's no such thing as 'bad' knowledge," stance. There are other things but this one is the most readily identifiable at god-knows-what o'clock in the morning. :o

Hmmm, I found this question a bit tough to answer.

 

My favorite legions are: Blood Angels, Emperor's Children, Alpha Legion, and Space Wolves.

 

 

In all honesty, I would probably have to say Rogal Dorn. I am steadfast and loyal to my friends and family. I would be willing to defend my father no matter what. I can also be very stubborn and most of the time, I will ignore the long run instead of the short term to get my objectives done and to follow my "code".

I'd probably end up being Fulgrim due to similar focuses upon perfectionism, constant focus upon removing flaws and self improvement, and unfortunate stupidity at times.

 

Either him or Russ due to my ability to hold long standing grudges, inability to forgive certain things, loyalties to those I stand with but the ability to cause major conflicts with those same people.

 

Honestly though, i'd suggest saving this thread until we know more about some of the others. Perturabo, Angeron, Vulkan others; until we get to their Horus Heresy books anyway.

Many people use different aliases on internet forums to hide their true identities; we have Kurgan the Lurker who is really Ricky Gervais, Brother Argos is Prince Phillip and A D-B who is in actual fact Stephen King.

 

I am also one of those people. This thread is asking the question and here is the truth; I am actually Roboute Guilliman.

 

Every time people slag me off it causes a single tear to run down my cheek and a fairy to die. I'm a really sensitive soul and take everything to heart. So when you are critising someone remember they just might be part of the audience...

 

:lol:

I am Spartacus! :angry:

 

 

In all modesty, I'd be Sanguineous. There was no nobler primarch and while each of his brothers brought their respective strengths to the forefront, the Angel was always glad to see them so elevated even at his own expense. Sacrifice for Mankind.

Konrad Curze. For some reason, I always use violence to solve everything and don't see anything wrong with it, but everyone else thinks I'm weird like that so I guess it is wrong.

 

EDIT: That, and I'm borderline bipolar. Besides the way he grew up (and actually killing people), I'm almost exactly like him. Especially since I see my dad as a massive hypocrite and we never talk any more.

Hmm......probably Jaghatai Khan :P

 

If you hadn't guessed it, Lorgar. I wont go into too much detail, but I feel like I can connect to him and his legion. I have the same thoughts and mindset as him dealing with religion and faith. Odds are id be the one to screw the whole Imperium up and cause the Heresy.

I identify more with Sanguinius than any of the other Primarchs (go figure!). But while I'd have absolutely no problems sacrificing myself for a cause I truly believed in, and I love close combat, I'm nowhere near noble or perfect enough to say I'm most like the angel lord. In truth I'm probably more Konrad Cruze, gifted, intelligent, but a loner with some dark stuff going on.

Roboute Guilliman.

  • I don't strive for perfection because it is a fool's errand
  • I strive to be better and to learn from my weaknesses.
  • I seek to learn from every mistake and every defeat, in order to eliminate them from ever happening again.
  • I aim for efficiency.
  • I'm not a particularly social person from the average person's point of view, but you'll never find a more loyal friend once you've earned my friendship. And there are almost no reasons for betraying my trust and friendship for which I'd forgive someone. I hold grudges for that type of stuff pretty much forever.*
  • I'm a pretty damn good diplomat when I need to be.
  • I believe in order and discipline and creativity.
  • I fight to win decisively, but I only fight if I must. I prefer peace and prosperity.
  • I'm a deeply proud person, but I almost never show it. Most people think I'm humble (I'm sure this applies more outside of the B&C).

 

 

 

I've got my share of traits I share with the other Primarchs:

  • Leman Russ - Should I find myself in a fight, I'd approach it tactically, but I'll probably rely on my shear size and strength as my most reliable/backup weapon.
  • Corax/Alpharius/Omegon/Curze - Stealth, ambush, and misdirection are my favored approaches to attack.
  • Magnus - I have a pretty much insatiable thirst for knowledge and information.
  • Dorn - I have a knack and urge for building defenses and, if I had the resources to do it, I'd probably build myself a castle "just in case of the Zombie Apocalypse".
  • Angron - There's almost nothing that sets it off (it's only happened once), but I do have the capacity for deeply murderous rage.*
  • Fulgrim - I have an appreciation for art, music, culture, quality, and such.
  • Mortarion - I can be pretty relentless in pursuing my goals.
  • Perturabo - I have a knack for destroying structures.
  • Ferrus Mannus - I have an affinity for technology. At the very least, I can repair a VCR without instructions or training.
  • Vulkan - I like fire as much as the next guy. I like lizards, dinosaurs, dragons, and such....
  • Horus/Sanguinius/Khan - Stuff already listed elsewhere?
  • The Lion - I'm a vault of secrets...but they're mostly other peoples' secrets.
  • Lorgar - Eh... Nothing I can think of?
