Khârn lthe Betrayer - a Perpetual?

[Commander Nicky]

Is Khârn a Perpetual? Just curious because, he seems at least to me, to die several times during the Heresy. The Emperor knows how many times he has died since after...

[Valkyrion]

Not officially, he's just good fun so Khorne keeps bringing him back.

Also, he has not canonically died since his resurrection after being killed by Sigismund on Terra. That’s Lucius’s schtick.

I wish Khârn would Kill Lucius...and feel nothing from it Thus the end of "Lucius the annoying"  ....

Not that I disagree with the sentiment, but please not without a replacement being in the works for the only named character that the emperor's children have...

It wouldn't work, anyway. Lucius was originally killed by that silly Mary Sue character during the Heresy, and he just kind of "woke up" afterward without possessing the Mary Sue. Something similar would most likely occur if he was killed by a highly favored Champion of a rival god, such as Khârn.

 

On the bright side, EC will probably get another special character with their codex, as WE got Lord Avocadus. Lord Papayon or something.

Fabius Bile? Saul Tarvitz the Loyalist Eidolon?

Maybe almost, but in a Khorne way more than Grammaticus or Vulkan. Like he became pseudo-perpetual as part of his fall to Khorne, not as a result of... whatever makes non-chaotic Perpetuals.

 

I'm guessing Khorne has favored Khârn to the extent that unless you literally kill Khârn by decapitation in single combat or whatever or basically 'Out-Khârn Khârn', Khorne will revive him to continue the slaughter. Of course, Khârn has a 10000 year head start on any mortal, but I gotta figure if like Guilliman or the Lion is able to cut his head off Khorne would probably take the L and finally claim Khârn's skull for the throne. More likely Khârn will just take a bit of a sleep while the rest of the horde distracts whomever knocks him down and then pop back up an 8-day later ; )

 

Cheers,
