Civilians: AHHH THANK YOU DEATH SPECTRES, YOU HAVE FREED US FROM THE FOUL XENOS. Death Spectres: Oh I wouldn't say freed, more like under new management.
The narration is written so well, it really gives the ai voice a feeling of personality, so well done! Emperor be praised that we are gifted this channel!
Very much appreciated! I'm still working on the next version of this voice model, really trying to get it to sound generally calmer, but the whole process is taking longer than expected. I've got some ideas on how to speed it up, mainly by training it on transformed versions of my own voice, but until it matches the overall tone of this current model then it'll remain on the backburner
@@Scholarslore I'm often blown away by the voice and sometimes the reads really surprise me with its character, it should be available for elocution and diction lessons online lol. I had to clip a bit of the odd boyz sermon because the character in the voice when it said "now let us go to...and see who dwells within" it was such an interesting way it was said and how expressive(?) it was so unlike what someone would expect from a voice model...definitely top tier work! 👏🏼👏🏼...[edit] Zeal is the word I was looking for, he's got to have a bit of zeal for he is all that closer to the blessed Golden Throne than we pitiful underlings.
After reading the stories of Talon Squad, a couple years back. I have a level of appreciation and admiration for the Death Spectres that can’t be beaten or broken.
They're a great chapter. I did portray them as being fairly dark in this vid, but in the few books where they're mentioned then they do pose themselves as truly fantastic characters.
“We’ve driven off the foul xenos from this world!” “Hurray! It’s the Death Spectres!” “…so that we may protect this year’s supply of fresh aspirants!” “Oh no! It’s the Death Spectres!”
"Welcome to this planet citizen." "Good to be here. The sector I live before was plagued by a chapter of horrible Astartes. The Space Sharks. They came out of nowhere, took what and whom they deemed worthy and left behind slaughter and fear. I'm so glad to leave that behind. So...how is life in the Ghoul Stars?"
It's like seeing and basking in the gentle light of the Astronomicon for the first...and only time as our feeble brains turn to soup within a picosecond.
@@stuppittyhedI do. I'd rather support a person that puts in all the work to write and narratesl the video themselves then AI made videos usually. This channel is really good though
@@stuppittyhed i care. your time might not worth much but mine ? is the most precious thing i have and i dont want to waste time going from a spam made AI video to the next seeing and hearing the same things bc they all copy paste the dam Wiki ....(sry about my english aint my first language)
Your timing is uncanny! I picked up The Eternal Crusader to read and was looking up the Ghoul Star Crusade. I only just then learned of the Death Spectres!
I base all my videos on the most forbidden of analytics, so I'll always match at least one persons current interests! (jk, pure chance, but still, very good timing!)
Appreciate it! Part 2 will come in a little bit, coming plan is for Necrons, then perhaps the second part of the death guard story, and maybe another Drukhari vid, but I do have the knights on my mind
@@Scholarslore Fantastic! I've really enjoyed going through your content over the past few months, and as I take more concrete steps to shift careers, I find the 40K universe to be a very tempting playground. As someone that got into it from the video game side of things your work has been a huge part of growing my interest in the setting, keep up the great work.
The Ghoul Stars are my favourite place in the galaxy. The mystery, the bloodshed and the worry of what's contained within leaves a lot to the imagination which is especially enticing in the 40k universe where it seems like nothing could ever be unknown or so extreme where it's expunged from all records as it was with the Nova chapter. I know the easy answer is Necron tomb world and countless xenos which is frightening enough on their own but that doesn't truly explain all that's transpired within the sector.
It’s very odd that the Death Spectres are of Raven Guard stock. While the Raven Guard are not particularly known for being benevolent to mortal humans, they were very antagonistic towards any form of slavery and oppression for its own sake. Corax especially despised cruel servitude and named the moon he landed upon ‘Deliverance’ after nuking the forge world that was oppressing the moon’s miners and workers and freeing them. The Raven Guard themselves often ambush and eliminate corrupt Imperial governors and Chaos leaders that are enslaving people. While being in the Ghoul Stars and well away from the eyes of the Emperor and his servants could help explain how they get away with their behavior, it doesn’t really explain why they engage in it to begin with. It would make more sense if they have fallen to Chaos, but even then, Chaos wouldn’t bother with the breeding program song and dance. They’d just murder and enslave without care to replace the humans that are lost. No other Chaos space marine warband gets new aspirants this way.
I suppose the death spectres do not consider the enslavement and oppression as 'for it's own sake' but instead entirely necesarry for the survival of the chapter
Yeah, no, forced pregnancies would not be enjoyable. And even if you were used as a stud, you’d better be praying your offspring are fit, because if they aren’t, you’re going to be replaced. And their severance package probably won’t be to your liking.
The Exorcists were created during the dark founding using Regal Dorns gene seed. They were an imperial secret experiment to create Marines resistant to possession and corruption. As part of the initiation, they are subjected to become a daemonhost for a time. Then are purged by an Inquisitor. They also have 12 chapters instead of the usual 10. The other two being extra scouts. Their home world is "Banish", and their monastery contains a sect of the Ordo Malleus which use daemonic possession as a weapon to hunt down other daemons.
I was just looking through the comments. They are not nasty. If anything it's a little religious. “Praise be “etc” 🙏 good community, good people, well-done buddy. Competition is tight as a dusk arse. I hope you are not too stressed out. All the best
Ah the praise be stuff is just a little bit of 40k goofiness, I don't read it as being religious or anything. But thank, you. Everyone seems to be great, and I'm incredibly happy with the sweet little community which has come together to watch this stuff. Thankfully I still work a fulltime job, so the stress over UA-cam stuff is fairly limited, each video is more of a passion project for myself, and for the fans of whichever topic I'm covering, but it's sweet of you to say, appreciate you!

Indeed, I was really happy with how it turned out. It is an altered version of "PineAppleMusic's" track "Peaceful Joy", set to play at 25%, then with some portions of it being overlayed to extend the duration. You can find the original version on Pixabay
If the Death Spectres are mostly interested in securing ressources and recruits why did they contribute to a lenghty campaign like the Macharian Crusade?
You mean the necron dynasties largest group of planets? I'll come to commorag and many times while there. Typhus like to poop over there a lot....but yeah a few hundred 10ft tall child soldiers...virgins...protecc the area 😂
The narration is AI generated from a model I put together with a voice actor, and then I sometimes use generated artwork using DALLE, aside from that, the writing, and editing is from myself, and the remaining artwork is sourced from the internet.
I feel like the death spectors are just some edgelord writer's freak fetish fanfiction like there's grimdark like the demonculaba and there's this grimderp stuff that sounds like a 13 year old wrote it
I think this voice is stellar! The audible breath, the intonation and expressive nature of it has at times really surprised me and it shows the care that has been put into this work. I did hear a slight glitch in this video that I've never heard before but our Scholar is one heck of an orator!
They got a "Hey, don't use my voice." back when the channel was Attenborough Lore. So maybe the things the newer voice does that the real one doesn't are to prevent that from happening again?
I drive for a lot of my work and Mondays are 10x more enjoyable as I listen to this every week
Glad to hear it 🤟

as if like in 40k as an imperial human wasn't grimdark enought, thanks Scholar's Lore
Since the whole 40k tagline is "in the grim darkness of the far future", I do feel a need to make the setting feel nice and depressing!
I can never take this setting 100% seriously when Games Workshop will name the leader of an all albino legion of marines “caucadius”
Yeah calling the albino marine master as caucadius is a bit on the nose
It comes from Latin
LOL! CHAPTER MASTER WONDER BREAD😂

It's so Mankind, it's not wanted there.
Im an imperial citizen, and I thought the inquisition said there was no such thing as xenos or life beyond the reach of the emperors holy light?
