Wrote something so hot I had to jork it out hold on give me some time to finish it
Here are my fav two ocs I've made for warhammer.
Abbigail(Abbi) - One of Fabius Biles attempts to make fem marines from scratch. However, her and all her sisters turned out wrong, save the Fem clone of fulgrim he made. Abbi is actually mute as using her voice would cause an uncontrollable sound blast. She is also very shy and "reseverd" for a child of the Phonecian. With help from their clone mother, Abbi and the others escaped before they could be "repourposed". Now they lead a ramshackle warband of themselves and exiled warriors from the Emperor's Children, headed by both Fem Fulgrim and a mysterious fem marine that wasn't created with the rest and has infact been around since the Heresy.
Anathia (Thea)- is a trans girl from an agri-world who always wanted to be a sister of battle but never got selected. Then, one day, her planet suffered an invasion from the Sons of Malice. She found a fallen sister who gave her her sword to defend them both. Unfortunately the Sister was too wounded and succumbed to her injuries. Thea seeing the opportunity finally present herself she dawns the Sisters armour and takes the fallen's place. While she is discovered pretty quickly, something causes the Cannoness to spare Thea.
I am making a comic about it, which I will be posting (I have 4 pages done so far)
I require the absolute bare minimum in life... this is that
I feel like not enough of the primarchs really have memorable mothers
Like I can only really think of, Guilliman's mom, Leman's Wolf Mom, and kinda Putrabo's sister(not a mom but still very prominent/memorable woman related to a primarch)
Like I get it, give them Daddy issues before they meet Emps, and then they get to have real daddy issues, but still.
I feel that's such a missed opportunity
Like give Angron a warrior mom who survived years in the pit because she had to be strong, but something in Angron unlocks a violent maternal instinct she thought she would never feel. It's not the usual "motherly instincts" but more like a lioness'
Or give Logar a priestess/holy mother nun, someone to foster his love for the religion, encourage his blind worship and devotion. And thinking him a gift from the gods.
Like, I'm not saying replace every dad with a mom, but I feel like an even distribution would give more narrative creativity!
That's also how I ultimately feel about making some Primarchs into Fem Primarchs. I feel they should have had, let's say, half the cannon primarchs be their fem variants. I feel that for some, it would have fit their storylines better.
Like ngl, Morty is my favourite, but hot take...
I feel his story would hit so much better if he was fem.
Cause one thing I picked up on is not a lot of 30k/40k fans like mortarion, or they just find him boring. (Im saying most people i have encountered and also pretty much every 40k youtuber I've seen), but i feel if he was Mortica, something might click.
It would hit different cause now u have a girl being used and abused by her toxic father, and then her vengeance is stolen from her by a man she doesn't even know. She is constantly trying to become more resilient, turning her resentment into bile.
It changes the meta-context and the readers perspective. Sure, 40k is so far in the future that gender and sex don't matter, but us as outside observers would then think and discuss Mortarion/Morticia's position with the very raw reality of how a majority of women/fem people are victimised irl.
And when they overcome it, they're hurt, they're changed and far less willing to be corjal with people. They have every right to be mad, to be hurt, but society sees them as jaded, as "a cold hearted bitch" and "just broken"
And it's this meta text being super imposed from real life experiences and knowledge that makes Morty more relatable.
Especially to a fem audience. She would then feel like the definition of female rage; quiet, intense, lured hate, all hidden behind a mask. Despite most knowing what she has gone through, they still feel uncomfortable being around her. Thinking she could be nicer, she should be sweeter and bounce back like she was designed to do.
But she can't. She's been tortured, her only vengeance taken from her. All by men, all by psykers. She loathes them all. She's traumatised and has built emotional walls so tight, not even Putrabo(who I also feel would be fem) could crack them.
Costume. Chitons.
It gives such strong Pandemonium (The "capital/Main court" of hell acording to old Christian lore) vibes!!!
Which makes total sense as it was probably what they were referencing. I've always liked WH30k/40k twisted parallels to Catholicism/Christianity, and this is a great subtle nod to it.
Astartes II
So I have an ongoing series for making the Fem Primarchs into monstergirls. Here are my finished pieces in the project so far
Who said I wasn't?

Do you have any friends, Perturabo?
I'll be real, this is almost vent art. I am autistic, i can't touch people, but i want to. People i can handle being touched by are very, very few and far between. there have been four in my life. Touch starvation is real shit, craving something you can't handle. And yet then there are those few, few that you can. What won't you do to keep them? I don't know. The list is short. I feel like i can project this on Perturabo without much character conflict LOL.
Okay, this is phenomenally funny, but I have to admit I feel the "Book of Grudges" is totally a 30k death guard relic. Like especially because of 30k Morty constly telling his sons not to forget even one grievance.
And even though i dont play the tabletop game anymore, i feel u should be allowed to give a tallyman model "Mortarion's book of Grudges."
Eldarphobic Lion, but it's him reuniting with Moira and realising she is "lovers" with, not just an eldar, but a DARK eldar... And the two met in Commorragh, so at least some torture did take place.
But, of course, Moira stops him from hurting Neaera. She is good now, the two of them are with the Ynnari, the very ones that helped resurrect uncle Roboute! So Lion now had no choice but to glare DAGGERS at Neaera, while catching up with his long lost niece. Any time the poor eldar girl does anything wrong, Lion just goes:
