What a difference a year makes :(

The Hrud are interesting because as gross, destructive and parasitical they may be, they don’t seem to actually want to cause pain and destruction. It seems like their fringe existence is in some ways the result of a conscious attempt to minimize the perilous effect of their entropic nature on the outside world. If they really wanted to, they could do much more damage. Still, the fact that they seem to occasionally capture and enslave humans is a troubling counterpoint, although that may be uncommon.

Maybe, like many sapient species, the Hrud are not composed of a single faction but a multitude of differing or even conflicting ones.

Seems like the best way to trap a Hrud is through Necron tech. Necrodermis lasts for ages, and Necrons have been known to trap shards of star gods in their labyrinths.

I think the Hrud could pose a pretty serious danger to the galaxy if the tyranids ever get a hold of them. What could the nids do with time based biological weapons?

@Self-replicating_whatnot

Yeah, that seems like a nightmare scenario. While hrud as a species can probably keep hiding even in a galaxy completely overrun by tyranids, a few members ought to get discovered sooner or later and if norn-queen acts quckly that's all tyranids need to develop themselves similar abilities.

The tyranids are unlikely to utilize such a weapon. I mean, they might try, but they would soon conclude it wasn't worth it. Unleashing it would age and kill all nearby tyranid bioforms instantly and would degrade/destroy valuable biomatter in the area. Unless....unless they figured out how to give an infiltrator, say, a Genestealer or Lictor, such a power, and tell it to suicide bomb vital targets like planetary void shield generators or senior officers. It could be quite the assassination and sabotage tool.

The Yu'Vath are dead and the Calixis Sector is forever safe from their pernitious depredations thanks to the peerless heroism of the Angevin Crusade. Their memory need not be visited further. Rumors of their dread constructs persisting in the Koronus Expanse are but crass stories told by Rogue Traders to the gullible masses so they might exploit honest imperial men and women for their own petty gains. *And any rumors of the Tyrant Star are nothing more than heresy of the highest order. Komus is a myth and a dead one at that, to unearth such Dark Heresy is to court the Inquisition's wrath.*

Please do a video on the Navis Nobilite. A fascinating group who weild disproportionate power in the imperium

I was half expecting the end of the video to be: Ave Imperator. Gloria in Excelsus Terra.... ‘Audible creeped out shuttering noise’

Dude, the utter revulsion directed at these foul xenos is delicious. Kudos!

The hrud feel like something nurgle would come up with. A pure living non-warp embodyment of entropy and rot.

I am a huge science-fantasy fan...across all my video game, book, RPG, and tabletop KZread channesl, Oculus is among the best. I hope others agree and this channel blows up, especially in our current and, likely, shut-in future.

These are by far the best 40k lore videos. It actually sounds like it could be "in universe". Fantastic. Perhaps we should support this historitors...effort...with merch purchases? Ave Imperator.

I see Oculus decided to take a break from edging heresy to do some simple dunking on filthy xenos after his chat with the Ordo Hereticus.

I love how Oculus has gone all scourgey and purgey after that visit from inquisitor Ms. Leather Whips in the previous episode. "This here creature, is absolutely awful, so now go kill it with whatever means you have at hand. No it's not a sentient race of beings with an interesting history or culture, it's just a horrible mound of claws and teeth that turns everything in a half mile radius into boomers. No, don't try to date it, for fuck's sake's what is wrong with you? Here, you know what, use a flamer. Ever heard of those? THEY BURN STUFF. Phosphex propellant not necessary, but highly recommended. You're welcome to fry every last one of these fucking things so I'll have one less horror keeping me up at night. Ave Imperator." He's definitely trying to make a good impression on someone.

Yet another topic that I was completely unaware of, and that I now love!

The oculus emblem would make a nice pendant or pin.

Videos on minor xenos species are awesome. Would love to see some more. Rakgul or ju'vath (seeing the latest astartes video) would be amazing

dear scribe: i have dug up audio data fragments of the Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor that "conversed" with you. she has among many heresies: been a vampire, a Dark Eldar, a succubi demon and read many heretical texts such as the Liber Chaotica. keep this in your back pocket.

yep this seems like the right video to build my skaven to

So it's pretty obvious from older pictures and descriptions that the Hrud were supposed to be space skaven but hopefully going of the much more detailed autopsy picture we can hope that if GW were to ever make models or make solid fiction on them (very unlikely) they go with the much more interesting race in this case based off the autopsy.

Love these

I feel like this is an Ordo Xenos lecture for Inquisitors.

Brilliant

I was expecting a video of the Ordos Hereticus after the request of one of their Agents, but indeed maybe Wise not to poke that particular nest of Japanese Hornet African Honeybee Hybrid

Disney ruining star wars is like a dream come true for GW. The grownups needed somewhere to go. Love these lore channels. They all have their own flavor on the dark content.

Didnt the hrud used to be the 40k version of skaven in the early editions? Then the rats were retconned out and the hrud became time controlling xenos?

Looks like a recent social visit to our friend has brought about a renewed zeal to his work.

Do the Hrud only push time forward? I remember in the book where the Iron Warriors fought them they caused a servitor to age backwards and the mechanical parts fell off but the human remaining was insane.

Imagine the amount of snickers you'd have to eat to have enough energy to affect space time. Could you even generate enough without becoming a supernova? Yeah whatever Sci Fi

With study and innovation we will....oh wait...
