So many old things have been re-written and re-imagined, trying to quote an obscure line from a 30 year old book as the definitive answer on a point of Lore isn’t the best practice.

A: Unless I'm mistaken, Andrew wasn't giving it as the definitive answer, simply historical context.

B: Not all the old lore is created equal. The 2nd Ed. books have a lot more weight behind them than the RT "Ultramarines Chief Librarian is half-Eldar."

This is new to me. What book is this from?

Almost any HH book he's in and beast arises series. He's not unkillable, he dies all the time, he just gets up again. Even he doesnt understand how/why. Maybe it was another geneseed reaction to the world of Nocturne like his coal black skin(I would say Vanta Black would be badass)? Or Biggie made him that way on purpose?
.

I wasn't clear. I knew about him being a Perpetual, but I didn't know he was currently in a tomb on Nocturne.
