Ok, now to clarify, I'm thinking more about guys like the Emperors Children (EC) here, and specifically their tendancy to take slaves for "pleasure".

I read somewhere that when the EC hit Terra, they did a lot of "bad" things on their way up to the palace gates, the R word (rape) was mentioned. Now, this doesn't seem very Space Mariney, considering the whole "sex" thing.

Now moving forward in time, I see it again and again, that the EC take slaves for pleasure.....and not just the torture kind of pleasure either? so what are they hinting at here? that Space Marines can and do indulge in making the beast with two backs?

Fabius Bile was altering marines before the legion went over completely to chaos. In the HH book Fulgrim he was giving out custom genetic modification to any EC who asked for it. Things like enhanced vision or the ability to produce a doom siren effect from their own voice box. I can easily imagine a few making the request that Bile turn their groins back on. He later left the legion and has become a popular figure in the eye of terror for his trade.

Plus being chaos marines and highly prone to mutation I could see the space marine biology getting tweaked in that direction through “natural mutation”, especially considering their patron god.

I don't think they're using their slaves for sexual pleasure. As I recall, during the siege of terror they would torture and mutilate slaves/prisoners and distill potent drugs from their suffering (don't even know how that'd work) much like what Dark Eldar employ and enjoy.

Sounds possible, considering the god they worship.

Hi,

There is a book of 40k short stories (Cant tell you what its called yet as it is at home and i am at work), in which there is a story with a Dark Angel Chaplain torturing a Fallen who specifically lists rape as one of his crimes.

So i would say that they can, loyalists marines due to training/brainwashing just dont have the urges.


GMort.

Maybe the Emperor's Children have begun to eat less salt peter while in the Eye of Terror.

i read a thread on here where some of you were talking about some really crappy 40k based books. someone brought up that one of the missions they went to a slaaneshy planet where buildings were having intercourse. SO that being said id imagine its REALLY easy for Slaanesh to mutate sex organs for marines.
so if you were planning on modeling EC minis with slaves for whatever reason, imo its totally gold man.
