So, does Mortarion have any decent fluff yet?
>>45972227
Who
Why does he wear the mask?
>>45972227
Nope, not yet. However Black Library is starting(has started?) a series on him so retcons incoming.
Expect a shoehorned second in command who stays loyal and is better then anyone else by a large margin and someone being a perpetual. Also probably Mort meeting Typhus when he was younger because BL is good at subtly.
>>45973514
Nobody cared who I was until I put on the mask
>>45973758
Will we get FootStool?
>>45976895
>>45973758
He better get footstool
>>45972227
He's literally the stupidest Primarch.
>>45980942
Nah. That award goes to Dorn because he was stupid enough to be on that chaos ship when it exploded.
Fluff for what? Why he cried uncle? Why he whimsically decided that thousands of his suffering and dying soldiers were more important to him than the human race and the Emperor? At least Angron had a fucking pain tumor in his brain which prevented him from thinking about anything past five minutes.
>>45981085
Didn't Mortarian have strained relations and major psychological issues because the Emperor killed his adoptive father.
>>45972227
He comes off as a bitch in every fluff showing he's in. Got slapped around by Khan too after the Khan called him out on being a chaos follower faggot
>>45981151
Yes, but he also has a natural predisposition against oppression and slavery. Nurgle was essentially bearhugging him and telling him to accept the assrape, and he should have understood immediately the implications of a Chaos god prosecuting its will upon humanity. Here is one of the ultimate evils of the universe who intends to break the Emperor's finest and turn them into his tools to enslave humanity in eternal torment, and all Mortarion could think about was
>muh soldiers
>muh suffering
>>45972227
How can anyone take him seriously after (picture related) happened?
I have no idea why he has any fans. He is canonically the weakest daemon primarch.
>>45981368
Its Draigo so it shouldn't count.
>>45981198
He had already realized that Emperor was a slaver too so weighing that against Nurgle was no biggie.
He probably had regrets about his adoptive daddy too given how he fashioned the Plague Planet after Barbarus.
>>45972227
>>45981533
The plague planet is moreso a hint that Mortarion always had daddy issues and never tried to move on from them. To be more specific, it hints at him wanting to be dominated.
>>45972227
No, and he never will.

That's stupid. Death Guard already ignore Dangerous Terrain tests
