Wade Garrett Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 The Chaos Gods aren't Astartes, so yes. Yes, the Heresy was started by non-Astartes.

Pavel Araghast Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Even if Emperor didn't saw Kor Faeron, Magnus saw him and disliked. If Magnus mental power was equal or near as powerful as of Emperor and he just felt dislike, maybe it's the answer.

malika666 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Perhaps the emp was having an off day and didn't do enough research on lorgar and his buddies Remember that Lorgar had tried to stamp out Chaos worship on Colchis in favor of Emperor worship. If he hadn't, the stench of Chaos on ordinary Colchisians presumably would have alerted the Emperor. How he failed to detect it on Erebus and Kor Phaeron is unclear. Perhaps the Chaos Gods protected them, or perhaps the Emperor never met them. Do we know how Typhon got corrupted? Nurgle is the least attractive choice of Chaos gods, especially since that whole despair thing doesn't happen much among Astartes. Humans are much more vulnerable to that. I think the Chaos powers are more than that. Nurgle wouldn't just be despair, it would also be hope. Same as Khorne could also be worshipped as some sort of warrior's honour thing. I doubt anyone would start to worship Chaos just because they want to do the evil thing. Typhon, Erebus, Kor Phaeron and the others believe they are actually doing something good, to better mankind.

Marshall Bretton Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 also wasn't typhon basically born on a plague planet? pretty much a holiday home for nurgle, would make sense that there would be plague cults around that thought their worship protected them from the deadly planet somehow or something along those lines Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/273278-wasnt-the-heresy-started-by-a-non-astartes/page/2/#findComment-3341999 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onisuzume Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Depends which source you follow. According to Flight of the Eisenstein he was from Barbarus. However, in The Lion it was stated that he was a Terran. You pick... Clearly, he had a split personality.
