    I believe that Arik Taranis, One of the last Thunder Warriors still alive by the time of the Heresy, successfully copied his genetic material and created an entirely new gene seed, as seen in Outcast Dead, when he steals a progenoid gland from an Astartes warrior and takes it back to his lab to find a way to lengthen his decaying lifespan, which he supposedly succeeded in by the end of the novel, when his Thunder warrior lieutenant asked him if he succeed in the process of genetic modification, to which Arik replies,”Yes, my son. it worked”. Also, to rationalize the name and iconography of the Minotaurs, Arik Taranis’ personal heraldry was a *RED BULL’S HEAD* surrounded by lightning bolts.

    Remleiz, have you not read the HH novel The Oucast Dead yet? The last leg of the book hints HEAVILY at the Minotaurs being descendants of surviving Thunder Warriors whose built-in genetic degradation was fixed by Arik Taranis using gene-seed sourced from different legion marines. Hence the Minotaur's chimeric gene-seed. Arik's heraldry is described as a red bulls head. The colors of the two forces are identical according to artwork. The savagery was shared by Thunder Warriors. Minotaurs would be paranoid and hate other marines because of how they were killed off to be replaced by said marines. I keep seeing people chase their tails by thinking they are Iron Warriors, World Eaters, or a combination of each when one of the early HH novels all but outright stated the truth of their origins if one can read between the lines. You should really consider making a true pt.2 to this video and exploring the Thunder Warrior angle and theorizing on what Arik Taranis did between the events of the heresy and the first appearance of the Minotaurs chapter

    Hmmm how so? I wouldnt expect marines somehow derived from Custodes creation methods to be bloodthirsty killing machines. Custodes creation is also totally different and is to an extent, unique to each Custodian. Custodes seem much more reserved and thoughtful in every action they perform, rather than borderline berserkers. Besides, there isnt really much aside from color scheme that links Minotaurs to Custodes. No lore that I have ever seen or heard of at least. Though maybe Ive missed something. Whereas I feel like half the reason The Outcast Dead was even written was to expand on Minotaurs origins. The book has a few bits of writing that are a little questionable when it comes to sticking with established lore like psykers and the strength of Custodes battleplate vs bare fists, but the emphasis on Arik Taranis and the remaining Thunder Warriors hiding out in the Petitioners City on Terra was amazing and I hope we get to see more of them soon

This further matches up with the Minotaurs behaviors. And in Horus Heresy (Black) Book 6, it is shown that the Iron Warriors developed specialized anti-Astartes forces, notably trained with heavy use of hypnoindoctrination and brain surgery

    In a way, they do, though, especially if you consider that there is a lot of overlap in geen-seed characteristics. For example, according to the lore, they seem to be secretive about the exact size of their chapter. My personal theory about the meaning of "chimeric geen-seed" is not that the chapter's geen-seed is hybridized, but rather than the chapter uses a number of separate geen-seed lines, kind of like the "Unnumbered Sons" primaris marines. For example, suppose that they have some members with Iron Warriors geen-seed, some with Alpha Legion geen-seed, some with World Eaters geen-seed, etc., and they have some way of determining with aspirant should get implanted with which one.

    My vote is with the world eaters being the source because from what I rememebr the warhounds we're still known as a brutal legion even before angron, and after angron the legion took on a Greek gladiator feel which meshes well with the Greek theme of the minotaurs. That last point may be to vague to be a point but sometimes subtlety is not GWs strong suite (the world eaters pre heresy war cry was "Blood for the primarch, skulls for the 12th legion")

    I love how there are so many loyalist chapters which are all but explicitly stated to be descended from traitor legions. Minotaurs are World Eaters. Red Scorpions are Word Bearers. Carcharodons Astra are Night Lords. Blood Ravens are Thousand Sons. 40k Fans: "Home brew Space Marine chapters shouldn't be based off of traitor legions because reasons." Black Library Authors: "Hold our beers!"

    I’ve always thought that, since there seems to have been a post heresy era chapter with the same name and doctrine, and that the current leader of the Minotaurs seems to have always been the leader of the Minotaurs, that the Minotaurs are one of the lost legions who suffered massive casualties in the heresy, and in the 21st founding received a bulk of new recruits to make up for what was likely crippling losses and possibly crippling levels of mutation

    My idea as the cursed founding had Cawl involved with these chapters being founded and were all most likely early field test for cawls primaris project but mostly failed, except the monitors who he could have taken to study and learn what he got right, and Cawl had asked for permission for using gene seed from all 20 primarchs but he was denied. Knowing Cawl he would do it anyway.

    Put me down for primarily World Eaters with some Iron Warriors, Blood Ravens (that kleptomania has to come from somewhere) and Ultramarines for balance. On that same note, I think the Space Sharks are a cross between Raven Guard (Ashen Claws successor chapter, specifically) and World Eaters.

    I am going with the War Hounds. . . er, World Eaters. The Minotaurs are not as crazed as the World Eaters under the influence of the Butchers' Nails. Wait, maybe not. . . Let's go through the legions with paranoia issues: 1st, 4th, 7th, 6th, 14th, 19th, 20th Legions. I might argue that the Minotaurs in fact bear more resemblance to the 14th, being disdainful of other legions, siege breakers, brutal, forbidden gene stock, and resilient. It could also be the fact that I just finished "The Buried Dagger" however. Who knows? I think that 4th, 12th, and 14th are the best candidates however. I think that the High Lords would consider that the 12th was likely to fall to Chaos whether or not Angron went off of the deep end. Their natures were susceptible to Khorne. The 14th legion however was only taken by treachery to Nurgle's bosom. If not for Typhon, it wasn't happening. Besides, you know that the High Lords love using astartes as chattel, like they did with the 3rd before Fulgrim's return. The 14th's stock make great meat grinding.

    I’m a little late but there is another legion famed for its savagery: the space wolves. While the current stock of gene seeds can’t be implanted in anyone other then fenrisians the vaults in terra could have a less degraded stock. They also might not, leading for the need to hybridize the gene seed to stabilize the space wolves genes, possibly ness estimating the need to mix it with another legion. I’m thinking dark angels for stability, but perhaps space wolf-dark angel didn’t work so they did pull out some traitor gene seed and it worked. I’d like world eaters and space wolves but you make a good point about iron warriors. With their manic personalities and secrets though they could be mixed with alpha legion as well, but they have other genetic flaws the Minotaurs don’t have. Anyway it’s a stretch but i like it.

    I can't say i know enough about either chapter to make a conplete theory on this, but perhaps they are an iron warriors/dark angels hybrid. Both would reinforce their paranoid and secretive behavior, the iron warriors would reinforce their military doctrine while dark angels would ensure their loyalty. It may be perhaps that the reason they fight orher astartes is a way of continuing the dark angels hunt for the fallen, hoping to find clues through other traitor chaptors, instead of them being directly under control of the high lords.
