She's Slaaneshi because she was corrupted after being captured by the Emperor's Children.

Oh that poor women.

Or lucky depending on what happened, seeing as it corrupted her.

Metaphysical Corruption, in fiction, tends to take two forms. The first is the most traditional form of corruption: basically moral corruption in the sense we use the phrase, but extended to physical corruption, or perhaps some sort of attunement with darkness or evil that implies a link between your moral character and your body/mind/soul that isn't as direct or as obvious in real life. The lightest form of this is the tendency of evil characters to appear pale or ill, or alternately sexy and stylish; and the strongest is them raging insanely while standing in a swirling pool of evil blackness, shooting purple/green/red/black lightning bolts of pure unadulterated EVULZ.

Hmm. Discomfort with ugliness and beauty.

It's worrisome that evil has to be communicated through appearance instead of actions. May explain politics though.

The other kind is the kind that is forced upon you. One can imagine real-life analogues for this; some might say that most corruption in the real world is of this form, and not of the former. Regardless, in fiction, this is quite literally someone forcing evil/darkness/CHAOS into you. This process is not consensual, it is not fun, and in a sense can basically be considered a way of killing who they were while simultaneously disgracing them forevermore. In kids shows this will involve a lot of sticking someone in a pool of black magic or whatever. In Warhammer40k, when speaking of the disciples of the Prince of Pain and Pleasure...

I mean you do the math.

He's playing poker in The Poker Room now, smoking all the sandpaper cigarettes he wants.

[LordPorkins]

Im 99% sure hes not dead. He probably just switched places with the guy on the left.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

No, he'll just be revived as a Nurgling.

[LordPorkins]

Oh, so he'll just be a dirty, foul-mouthed guy who ingests things unmentionable?


Whats the difference?

[nenjin]

He'd get to say things like "Papa Bless" unironically?

[Internal screaming]

Well I'm sober now too.

Im 99% sure hes not dead. He probably just switched places with the guy on the left.

I just watched a head twist from the sheer force of the flies consuming it in tune to the sound of a funeral march.

That's pretty dead.

It doesn't have to be. It's just convenient shorthand.

The 'perfectly normal' person performing horrific acts is one of those 'gets under your skin and fucks your dreams' tropes for a reason.

Any ideas on how to find more music like that chanting?

[nenjin]

That had to be made in engine from something; the textures are pretty bad when close up. Really reminds me of the DoW engine for some reason.

[LordPorkins]

Im pretty sure it was just source.
