5:11 - Chaos screwed with my videos again...
Malice has always been a really interesting part of 40K its a curious thing that people just cannot seem to ever agree on, its strange as well because when you look at the story in its complete form, it seems pretty clear that GW are not only more than happy to continue keeping Malice as part of the verse, but they actively keep giving a wink to it.
Does Malice exist? Tell me your theories.

@@dontuseyourcellulardata7599 So I'm guessing PyroByte is a Daemon Prince and Malice's champion?
DOES THAT MEAN HAUSEMASTER IS MALICE?!?!?!?
Theory, Malice isn't a minor god but the oldest entity of the warp. It existed before the chaotic gods were born and remembers when the warp was quiet and peaceful.
It's purpose is to return its home to how it was, by killing the chaos gods by starving them thru killing all those who give them power.
In this sense Malice and The Emperor of Mankind have the same end game, to starve the chaos at its source by making humanity believe in science and logic instead of gods, magic and the warp.
So what if, when the Emperor entered the warp he never came out, but Malice came out wearing the Emperors skin and now sits on the throne keeping the body alive so the Emperor can't reincarnate.
A demon in the warp started the hearsay to foil Malices plans to kill them all, makes sense to me if Malic is in charge if the Imperium given humanities heartless policies of annihilation towards anything that gives power to a chaos god. A long stretch from the Emperors more moderate strategy to slowly starve chaos thru science and education.
My Theory for the Emperor is similar. He fused with or absorbed a minor "good" Chaos God when visiting Moloch with Malcador in 24k. Not with Malice, who also represents Anarchy but his Counterpart like Ying and Yang. Order.
Heresy warning
That is dangerously close to my friends theory that the emperor is the Avatar of malic
Maybe the Emperor of Mankind IS Malice?
The immaterium would still be there and do fine without the galaxy, right? Wouldn't it be easiest to side with the necrons and get them to activate the blackstone pylons? It would even give him a safe haven in the event that the tyranids win. Although I guess they also quiet the warp in their own way.
"The guy who invented Malal left GW and took his intellectual property with him, for legal reasons, Malal has been retconned"

@@richardford1283 Indeed, but as I covered I do think it clearly has legitimacy the fact they are still mentioning the Sons even last year deserves a little expansion. I feel most conflicted about how they behave emotionally, do they work together or is it more chaotic and what sort of benefits does malice give to them if any in the same way that other gods give their followers a mark or some kind of benefit. Lots of room for expansion for sure

Agreed
In reality, "Canon" is just a word. Any lore considered not Canon is about as real as anything that is considered Canon, so the choice is up to you to fit it into the universe of 40k 🙂
Malal/Malice - Edgelording before and after it was cool...
"I'm so edgy, the universe itself can't decide whether I exist or not!"
Other chaos gods: "Dude...!"
Slanesh was literally r / aped into existence. And that's putting it mildly. Not to mention the night lords, Khorne the god of eternal bloodshed and unending hatred, the Drukahri, Flayed ones, the Destroyer cult, Nids, the mechanicus, Doge VanDire, the Damaonculaba and the lads who made it. All the stuff that happened to the Lamentors. That stuff that happened in the watcher in the rain. Overzealous Inquisitors with an itchy trigger finger. Typhus. Orks gotta eat something other than grots and squigs, like babies and old people. The Alpha legion caused a famine that killed 90 Billion human cattle. Servitors exist and I promise you the vetting process for who gets turned into one is not nearly as effective as they want you to think. The 40k setting, all of it and I do mean all of it is the very definition of over the top try hard edgelord nonsense. For that last point about not existing well.... Rock and stone sister, Rock and stone.

"Loosened up with things like the 'Astartes' project"
This has not aged well.
"Some gods just want to see the warp burn"
now this is just great :D
I'd like to propose some head canon. Malice is the oldest Chaos God, created from the collective racial malice and spite of the Necrontyr towards the Old Ones during one of their wars in heaven. The main four gods can be summoned to real space, but refuse to be summoned because if they would be summoned their warp realm would be vulnerable and taken over by the other 3. Thus losing the great game. Malice has no realm, because it never wanted one. It always wanted to destroy all life, and the warp, both driving forces being left over feelings of spite from the Necrontyr before they were Necrons. So *wants* to be summoned.
I accept this head canon.
I'm stealing this and using it in my next conversation about chaos and passing it as my own original head-cannon. Thanks!
@@nigragigra5207 go for it. Good chance you'll muck it up anyway. Necoho believes in you
This could also explain why hes so weak at this point. The Necrontyr didn't just find other gods to worship, but completely cut themselves off from being any sort of "fuel source" for him by becoming the Necrons.
> Malice is the oldest Chaos God <
Malice - это маленький демон Неделимого, которому поклоняется одна банда CSM. Это НЕ Бог Хаоса.

Sort of like a "self destruction, but for a good cause" thing
Edit:
I can also see him being a god of freedom. The whole anarchy thing and all
I think in the old canon of Fantasy, Malal, as a god of anarchy, terror and chaos in general, was also a god of underdogs, slaves and those that were wronged by someone powerful, like a peasent abused by his lord or slaves fighting for freedom from the grasp of their masters.

Rewatching this in 2022. The part around 40:00, mentioning how aggressive GW became in protecting their stuff, specifically referencing Astartes and TTS... Man how much things can change in two years. Feels bad man...
If the Gods play a Great Game, then Malice is the one trying to end it. That’s possibly the only thing positive you could say about it.
Why would he try to end the Game? Since Malice thrives on pure anarchy would he not benefit by the Game lasting eternally?
As the other Gods play, Malice benefits through the constant shifts in power fuelling him
@@callumcochrane7759 because, in many ways, pure chaos and anarchy is found in entropy - the complete dissipation of everything into endless disorder. In a war, even an endless one between the chaos gods, there would be some order - 4 different sides all against one another, planning and scheming, ordering their armies to battle. Pure chaos, pure entropy, pure anarchy is practically unimaginable, but we can say that anything you can imagine still has too much order to be absolute chaos
@@scerpalman If the Game ended that would mean that someone had won and would establish an order in their image. This would be an antithesis to Chaos as a concept.
In your scenario, the end if the Game results in total devastation. I assumed that you meant that this was the Materium that was destroyed, but this would result in the forces of the Warp being greatly diminished as they need trillions of sentient lifeforms' emotions to fuel them. If they were sent into oblivion the manifestations of these emotions, the Chaos gods including Malice, would also cease to exist.
@@callumcochrane7759 It was really more a riff on the spiteful nature of Malice and its nature as a self-destructive anti-chaos chaos god. You say that if the game is over then someone has “won”. Malice isn’t trying to win or let anyone else win, it is trying to flip the table and ruin the Big 4’s day.
@@callumcochrane7759 games can be ended without a winner you can have a draw or the board could break rendering the game unplayable
I feel the night lords definitely fall under malice, especially those who do not worship the main chaos gods,
I 100% agree with this but I bet it would piss old Konrad off. His sons who were meant to bring order allying with the god of anarchy? Oh boy he must be rolling in his grave.
Konrad wouldnt like that. He uses terror to force order while Malal uses terror for anarchy
Nah, the godless Legions still believe in their ideals, even the Night Lords want to spread terror and assert their dominance in that way. Followers of Malice just want to destroy everything.
Malice, minor chaos god yet the big four are absolutely scared shitless of him. I love Warhammer 40k

Researching for a Warhammer: in summary video?
Malice is my favorite god, its its presence manifest itself in the real world itself as unbridled chaos and uncertainty. The fact that malice produces chaos naturally in the community gives it a place as a dark god in the universe of 40k.
It didn’t manifest itself, it was likely manifested due to the necron’s Malice and Spite for the Old Ones at or possibly before War in Heaven.
The War in Heaven lasted for Millions of Years and plunged everyone and everything in the entire Galaxy into unbridled violence and pain.
However, it would not have occurred if not for the Necrontyr working with the C’tan and killing the Old Ones out of Malice and Contempt, and then later turning on the C’tan out of Spite.
@@johnnyrocket1685 Yeah perhaps that is true, nothing comes out of nothing, the necron theory is interesting. they are indeed quite spiteful and can perhaps feed something different than the chaos gods.
18:38 I think it's actually very much in line with the concept of Malice to have their canon materials basically all unclear legends and fan-fiction. Like, everything about Malice should be made up on the fly to mirror how most people in-universe don't even believe Malice exists.

Do you have Chaos champions as well? That is cool. You can run a Warhammer Fantasy campaign without wasting money and time on the real Warhammer Fantasy.
@Char Aznable Yes it would. It would be fun to play it in an RPG format rather than wargame.
@Char Aznable It sure would. I have not played D&D in many years but it has a time tested gaming system that would be a great way to explore the Warhammer universe. The conversions would take a little creative leg work for the DM, but it would be lots of fun. The only real attempt that I know of for WH was Dark Heresy. I did not play but read some of the handbooks. I cannot say I care for that system. D&D has a superior system. The only appeal to me would had been playing a WH40K RPG.
@Char Aznable I know. They totally destroyed everything that was good about Warhammer Fantasy. I really been much more of a fan of WH40K novels over the past decade. I have read 100s of books. I was also disturbed with the destruction of the WH universe as we know it. It made me fear that they would make the same idiotic move with WH40K as well.
One positive thing you could say about Malice is that sometimes things are beyond saving and you just have to destroy it to start over. Could be born from the way the Imperium doesn't try to salvage or save anything they just burn it.

This chaos god was so unstoppably powerful that it breaks the 4th wall into our dimension, violating IP and attempts to write it out of existence.

I always felt that Malice might be the primordial god of chaos as all the other aspects bring some sense of order to what is a mealstrom of pure creation and destruction. In that sense you could see Malice as chaos trying to free itself from the confines of order the other chaos gods try to impose on it.

You know, Malice makes a lot of sense as a minor god: We frequently describe people who act out of malice and spite as being small and petty, and this guy fits the bill. He doesn’t even revel in wanton destruction like Gork and Mork do, and the overall pointlessness of the violence and chaos he embodies feels just like the petty-minded assholes you encounter in life, who’ll kill a hummingbird, not to study it or even to torment it, but just because they can and they don’t have any notion of why not to.

I dont know whether its I like the lore or I love your writing/narrating/editing but I cant stop watching these videos. I have zero interest in playing or 40k, I'm just hooked on your vids. Thank you, this is quality content
'I have zero interest in playing or 40k'
lets see how that goes lol
@@arthurchong5271 You can't rape the willing.
@@Luetin09 hahaha I'm too busy! I know what would help, I'd love it if your lore explanations included links to the game mechanics (I dont know if that might ruin the immersion of your lore vids) for example I know from the recent factions rundown video (he is called blinky or something) he explained how orks have very chaotic mechanics where you either smash it completely or fall apart depending on your luck, that's very ork!
Or how the grey nights have few figures on the board, they are just incredibly tanky.
@@lwo7736 You can look up the game mechanics, but its pretty easy - you have turns of moving and shooting, your units have different stat profiles, you roll dice to determine if they successfully hit, damage and save. Thats basically it in a nutshell. It can be easy or more complex with advanced rules. Its a very good relaxing hobby, can sting the wallet once it drags you into its dark clutches tho lol

Malice is the god of "This is why we can't have nice things"
My theory on Malice is that he is the missing god, that everyone seem to not notice is missing.
All the gods are based on some emotion: Anger for Khorn, Hope for Tzeetch, Survival for Nurgle and Excess for Slaneesh.
But what is the most basic emotion of all?.... Fear, where is the god of fear?
I think Malice is the God of fear, and by far the most powerful of all the gods, which is why the big 4 are scared shitless of Malice.
"Malal? never heard about that" Malice himself to a son of Malal
Also tzeentch might say malice is actually the great horned rat as the great horned rat followers are chaotic yet they destroy themselves as malice and his followers while making totally existent and non-existent progress like Malice represents.
"HEY WHAT'S UP GUYS!! IT'S ME, THE GREAT HORNED RAT, THE FOURTH CHAOS GOD!"

That would be so freaking dope, introduce some crazy space rats
@@indrickboreale7381 **Zegram coughing intensifies**
Malal predates the Horned Rat. Horned Rat first appeared in 1989, Malal appeared in 1985. Before then, Skaven were basically Chaos Ratmen, worshipping other Chaos Gods. (By Other I mean there were more Chaos Gods back in the Oldhammer, like Khakkek, Meneloth, Atagro, Tristaris, Kka etc.)
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for all the uploads.

I've said this before, but the "theres conflicting information in 40k" thing is in some ways a cop out the writers can use to explain away things that conflict, allowing them to ditch dead ends and not have every writer be an expert of everything. I think it's just as much that as it is a concept that does function in the story
I tried watching Arch Warhammers video on the topic since it released a few hours from this post and any Malice content I digest like Slannesh herself but his ramblings and video format really made it difficult to consume information which drove me back here where it is done right.
Just wanted to say thank you again for the great content!
Your depiction of Malice reminds me of Mehrunes Dagon from Elder Scrolls who is, similarly, a god of destruction. All of the daedric princes have a positive and negative element and have people who pay appeasement or worship to both.
Peryite, for example, is appeased by those who fear plague and pestilence, but is also worshipped as the patron and keeper of the mutant and outcast, and such has worshippers amongst the deformed.
Dagon is usually only ever appeased, as his negative sphere is destruction, but he also has a positive sphere, energy and kinesis.
Malice seems the same, he gets his power from destruction, yes, but motion itself powers him. He feeds the great game without participating because the existence of the game vfc itself gives him power. Where Khorne gets power from murder, anything that results in a change in the balance of power feeds Malice.
Actually dagons positive spheres are revolution and change. He was created for the sole purpose of being a revolutionary leader. I'd say me.
@@r.cdahuman7682 that is what I meant by "energy and kinesis". I didnt want to write out all of the subtleties of change and revolution; mainly because "change" is shared by all of the princes have part of the the change sphere and Boethiah, Clavicus Vile, Malacath (who is a bore at parties), Sanguine, Sheogorath, and Meridia all have part of the "revolution" sphere, with Mehrunes Dagon only ruling over the desire to topple structures and the resources used to destroy buildings and whatnot, hence kinesis, the actual movement matter and energy.
That's actually why I love Elder Scrolls and Warhammer. Post-Christian deities are such simple affairs. You have a God if Fire, Water, etc. sometimes you get more esoteric gods like war or chaos, but whatever a god *does*, that is all it ever does. Examples include Lucifer (I know he isnt a god, I'm just making a point) who only does evil and YHWH (also not a god, I know) who only does good.
Gods of the old world are so much more interesting. Hades is a god of the dead but some worshipped him as a luck diety because as a cthonic deity he also has some control of the bounty of the earth, which gave him some overlap with Pluton, who handles precious minerals.
These two series are great at that sort of old-world mythology. The gods have more important things to deal with than the ugly sacks of mostly water they rule over. They fight over what parts of what spheres each owns.
Last time I was this early the Necrontyr were still converting their flesh.

Is this some Old Ones' jokes that somehow survived to this day?
Malice seems the most pure expression of "Chaos", a term used heavily to do with the warp in general. Though, Malice might be almost a "pseudo-chaos god" in that it could be that it isn't an actual entity so much as it's that chaos and wanton destruction is the default for the warp, and gives almost some kind of placebo effect to act in favor of that chaos and wanton destruction.
I think it could be that Malice was a very powerful Demon that simply gathered enough worshipers to ascend in power and essentially become a lesser god. A lot like how the Orks psychically manifested Gork and Mork in to existence by believing they were real. I think you should do a video on them next. If you're interested in more chaos lesser gods, check out Hashut from Warhammer Fantasy.

Thank you so much for the uploads in these times Luetin. You are doing the Emperors work!
I wonder if there's a link between Malice's visual appearance and the fact that the symbol of adeptus mechanicus tends to be a split skull?

Malal/Malice feels more like the head chaos god shadow puppetering in the background.
*quiet angry tzeentch screeching in the backround*
He's the antithesis of supposed Chaos God of Chaos Undivided, the Great Beast, if you ask me hehe. Like the Chaos God of Chaos Divided.
Pound my puny imagination into submission with your mighty videos.

i gotta thank you luetin, i watched some video you made about a void grenade or someting on accident like 5 months ago, and now 40k is probably my favorite sci-fi universe.
That kind of pure evil remind me of that quote in The Dark Knight about the bandit throwing away gems: "Some men just want to watch the world burn."
Oh boi. Here I go doing heretical things again.
0:54 "Well, here we are again, speaking HERESY"
18:47 How did that baneblade managed to sneak up on us? Only a tactical genius could've-- CREEEEEEEEEED!
Cool concept: One of the "lost and forgotten" legions coming back as a "True Legion of Malice" because they were expunged by the Emporer and are seeking revenge, twisted by Malice himself. They would, naturally, also fight Chaos.
Imagine if Malice is the one to push chaos back to the eye of terror because he grew more powerful from the rift. Favorite chaos space marine chapter is the sons of malice. Highly unlikely but you can only hope.
5:06 So.... this is what Rimmy - Downunder Gaming and cronies screaming of in Arma 3. Now I get it!
Bro, how old are you. Your mind is......well....mind-blowing. what you talk about is way deeper than, and more applicable to, just 40k. Bravo, such excellence is rare.
Love your work dude, your videos keep me painting. I've been in the hobby for 18 years and I still find out new stuff listening to you. Keep it up please
My name is Cathal, scarily close to Kathal... My parents are heretics.
hello there, we could assume that as the sons of malice are recognized as one of the original 20 gene seeds. it could be possible that malice is the primark and he has become a daemon of the 4 gods, hence is is stronger then than other primarks but not a god himself. just a thought. my army is painted sons of malice i love these dudes a lot
Malal, aka the best friend of the Emperor.
Malice sounds chaotic neutral ^^
Ah yes, my favourite scout tank, the Baneblade.
It's interesting Skellos as a place here in 40k and in Conan a legendary place of sinister repute ( the books of Skellos contain the sum total of the darkest necromancy and demonancy ) eh?
With your warp powers combined I am Captain Malice!
You put so much thought into your vids, these are amazing - thank you!
