How heretical is it for your average Imperial citizen to having feelings for a Space Marine?

Yes, as far as I know, both Salamanders and Ultramarines can go around and hang out with the civilians in their spare time. But I don't think a romantic relationship can come from that. There was this Space Marine that was pretty good friends with an Inquisitorial Guardswoman, the one that said "it's a shame that you are a Spasce Marine" when she saw him naked. The Marine didn't even understand and the monologue said that he was numb to seeing her in the nude.

Also, I'm pretty sure Sororitas can have relationships, though.

>Also, I'm pretty sure Sororitas can have relationships, though.

Aren't they Vow-of-Chasity Space Nuns?

No part of the process that creates space marines renders the marine sterile, nor does it castrate them or anything else along those lines. It is a silly but understandable myth as space marines are by and large sexless warrior monks.

They still have the equipment and the equipment still works unless they decide to do something about it themselves.

They are not. Though it is likely not uncommon.

>Complete lack of lust

The warriors of the Vlka Fenryka would like a word, user.

No they don't have any vows or oaths regarding chastity. Gw has answered these questions and stated they can do whatever they want.

Yes you can fantasize about marines pounding human girls, and it will be lore accurate

There was a Great Company that went beyond the rim of the Astronomicon, ended up on an inhabited world, and they thought they were cavorting with human women.
They were not, and they were never heard from again.
Chastity does not imply no sex, it's no sex without procreation rights, ie marriage.
Even then, priests aren't supposed to diddle children, and the Ecclesiarchy isn't supposed to be corrupt as hell.
It is mentioned directly in the Custodes codex that they receive the same hypno-indoctrination that marines do in order to render them above physical seduction. So not sterile, just asexual.

They are sterile, the emperor never wanted them to reproduce in fear they might try to overthrow normal humans. That's also why he never made female marines in case one of them somehow got pregnant.

This is why Veeky Forums is still being retarded about marine junk, posts like these. I bet you think they eat brains too.

>That's also why he never made female marines in case one of them somehow got pregnant.

user doesn't know what a hysterectomy is.

>i bet you think they eat brains too
i mean they don't do it for shits and giggles but the omophagea is def. a thing, where do you think the Blood Angel's unique....quirk....comes from?

He tried making female Astartes and they died due to medical complications.

The Primarchs are basically his altered, lesser clones, and as such male. Astartes are chemically, genetically, and surgically turned into clones of the Primarchs. Basically big dude, littler dude, littlest dude. Trying to force all the male based pseudoscience onto women kills them.

Don't Salamanders have adopted families?

your fanfic isn't canon, user. according to Malcador and Fabulous Bill, the Emperor never attempted to make any in the first place.

>I bet you think they eat brains too.
user, "I don't like this published statement" is not the same thing as "This published statement doesn't exist because I don't want it to exist".

>How heretical is it for your average Imperial citizen to having feelings for a Space Marine?

It would be heretical not to.

>Yes you can fantasize about marines pounding human girls

What if I want to fantasize about marines pounding me?

it would be lore accurate.

Why did I read this, why did I read the sequel linked at the bottom. No homo

They do eat brains though.

If you have time to be writing love letters, you have time to be fighting the enemies of the Imperium

No, but a daemon of some kind might be able to restore the fertility of a marine.

For a price...

How heretical is it to paint Sister of Battle pin-ups on your armor and vehicles?

Just don't let them see it would be my guess.

They do?

>Can Space Marines even bang after all the changes their body has been put through?
Maybe, though the will and desire to do so is more or less non-existent.

>There was a Great Company that went beyond the rim of the Astronomicon, ended up on an inhabited world, and they thought they were cavorting with human women. They were not, and they were never heard from again.

gonna need a sauce on that boss. Iirc correctly there has only been one lost Great Company and that is the recently returned 13th

...

We're talking Rogue Trader days, mate

Actually no, Space Wolves codex 6th edition.

>He grunted furiously, screaming “WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!" in his deep orkish voice as he battered his fuckmeat against Eduardo’s tightly sealed pleasure ring.

Jesus Christ

But if Space Marines can reproduce then why haven't we seen or heard of any cases of half Space Marine babies? Or for that matter, why Black Library continues to confirm without confirming that Space Marines don't have any sex drive? All I ever heard to the contrary was that one story about the Space Wolves being seduced by "humans" somewhere along the galactic rim, everything else seems to imply that they not only won't but can't.

>Wanting women to love Space Marines romantically
>Not wanting an old elderly woman to have motherly love and care toward Space Marines and bake them cookies and chastise them if their armor is dirty after coming back from a warzone
Disgusting taste

Not even remotely the same thing. Besides, the Salamanders are already a thing.

I imagine sisters would have kids every now and again. Girls go to the sororitas, boys the schola.
Honestly I'm split, either they send the males off to the schola or they groom them for priesthood.

>This thread again
Yes, yes, no kids.

>Battle Brother, what did that Guardswoman want from you?
>I'm not sure, she gave me this letter
>Well, what does it say?

>ten thousand years of roneryness
Space marine chapters are giant families. Initiation, geneseed implantation and hypno-indoctrination gives them an enormously strong fraternal bond with their brothers.

Anyone who would weep about "tfw no gf" is going to be long gone before the initial recruiting's finished.

...

Can i bond with my brother like Patroclus with Achilles, when i play Deathwatch?
What happened in Deathwatch, stay in Deathwatch.

>Girls go to the sororitas, boys the schola.
You got it mixed around. To become a Sororitas, girls must gradtuate from the schola first as a Sororita Novicate.
>off to the schola or they groom them for priesthood.
Grooming is done, once again, at the schola.

>Besides flirting is natural to humans
oh...

Unless you’re asexual, but in that case you’re just broken, senpai

Depends. No. No.

They're Space Wolves. Most chapters don't drink and flirt like they do.

Somewhat.

I guess I'm broken, then.

If space marines have any similarity with a loner like me, they'll probably just accepted it as a fact of life.

1)get your sex fantasy's outta here

2) probably pretty heretical since they are akin to children of the emperor.

3) yes they have feelings of love not so much of lust

4)can they bang? Left up to interpretation. They are said to not be able to reproduce, wether that means just sterile or they don't have working dicks is not known. I heard once that space wolves have shield maidens they bang, but I never was able to confirm it because I never bothered to look it up.

Imaging being an neophyte, surviving the trials (for example, killing a lion/bear/snake chimera beast twenty times your size) and going through all the training and accepting gene-seeds, only to have you grandma come as a chapter serf embarrass you in front of all your buds.

since space marines typically come from hardass cultures, their grandmas would probably be the cool kind of grandma

On the other hand, her cookies are delicious and she knits awful sweaters for everybody.

That's one tall woman

No one would be attracted to space marines except homosexual men. If there is one thing we know, turbo autism and sexual obliviousness guarantee you will never score with a woman even if you are tall and buff.

Except veneration is a thing, they are the grandsons of God, people have made orgies for less important figures in our time

They'd really be scraping the bottom of the barrel though. I mean, a random dude with good money and a smutty personality could pull better pussy than a space marine.

Except every loyalist human practically worships the guys and the people with money are usually the kind of old repugnant dicks that lord over you for ~300 years and are generally more concerned with maintaining the bloodline than to sully themselves with the common rabble.
That or cultists.

Because they technically still have the mind and soul of a children. They are like indoctrinated big ass children with super physical capabilities.
The ones that where recruited as puberts however had their sexual drive killed off. Physical power at the exchange of romance and sex drive.

It seems that only the emperors children are curious enough to explore that aspect since they are eager to experiment on new shit all the time.

>Vlka Fenryka
>vlaka flebinka wainka cuckinka.
They are the space yiffs son.

In the william king novels it is presumed that some of them have children because they got laid when they where puberts and before they became space marines.

I want this so bad
And then I want that SM to pay it forward eventually, showing a rare moment of nurturing toward a young girl or boy who may one day grow up to defend the Imperium.

And the sweaters fit over the power armor, right?

Not as a rule, though some orders do. There are many canon Sororitas who have sexual relationships with members outside their order, and it's even addressed that in-universe it's a common misconception that Sisters must be chaste.

Sororitas orders are as widely varied as Guard regiments and Space Marine chapters when it comes to ideology and doctrine.

>I bet you think they eat brains too.

They can and have, even in recent canon.

However, it's not a common thing and is often seen as distasteful, done only as a last resort by most chapters. The aversion is entirely a cultural one.

Official word from GW is that Marines are only 7 feet tall, in armor....

>"...and as a biological control, both are incapable of procreation."

Seems pretty straightforward in that they are biologically all sterile, and psychologically conditioned not to feel lust.

No.
They raise duty beyond all things.

Space Marines can't procreate because they're not genetically modified, just biologically augmented. Even if female Space Marines were a thing and assuming both sets of genitals work right, a fale and female Space Marine could have a kid, but it would be a human kid. Admittedly, the kid might have a greater likelihood to display the biological predisposition that makes one capable of being a Space Marine, but ultimately it would be human.

Nothing in Space Marine DNA makes they anything more than human; it's all of Big E's after-market additions that changes their biology, so none of that would get passed onto offspring.

>it's a "let's pretend this is not a fetish fuel thread mmmkay all sisters are sluts in my head canon" thread

It is possible but not all that likely with all the chapter moving about they do.
Also did everyone forget about the IG woman from space marine? Titus had a ultra-boner for her

pretty sure theres at least 3 legions who are capable of procreation
>space wolves
>White Scars
>(chapter) Black Templars

This but I would add that it is mostly a lack of time, that would hinder them from a proper marriage. Can a noble highborn be married with a Sister of Battle, just for political reasons? Maybe, why not? Can a Sister go /ss/ on one of the the young cleric novices, while her older canoness flirts a bit with the confessor thats teaching the mentionend novices? Propably, the Imperial Cult is pretty dogmatic and obessed with purity, but don't seems to be very prude, unless your fetish are mutants or xenos. Than they will kill the fuck out of you in puplic. But, to come back to my examples, how often will this happen, simply because they spend most of their time killing deamons? I think, that is wha most of the sexual relationships in the Imperiums Military Forces boil down to.

Will a Guardmen and Guardwoman rock the foxhole after celebration of a victory, where the whole regiment is partying? (Depends of course on the Regiment, but you get my Idea). Fuck yes and why not, the next battle is only to come.

Will an Inquistor need some time out from all the horrible shit he sees and does on a daily basis? Likely, maybe he has some concubines
at his house for that or he has something with
his partners & acolytes.

But will they have the time do that as often and open as the normal population? Propably not. And in case of the Inquisition I think, not many peoble outside the Inquistion would like to marry or date them. Because well, everyone is fucking scared shitless of them.

I just want a picture of two salamanders talking and showing off the gifts they got from their nanas now.

> How heretical is it for your average Imperial citizen to having feelings for a Space Marine?
Absolutely halal. Heretical would be turning it into all-consuming lust.
> Can Space Marines even feel love or lust towards normal humans?
Love - yes, they can. Lust - some Space Wolves and Salamanders do, but it's generally treated as a sin to be avoided.
> Can Space Marines even bang after all the changes their body has been put through?
Space Wolves and Salamanders can but usually don't. Some CSMs do.

Not heretical, but At least make her a generic battle-sister, rather than any particular one that might take issue with a huge rendering of her tits across the side of your unit's Rhino.

Aren't Space Wolves pretty much heretics that no one has the balls to call out?

Space wolves have been wolfing it up since space marines had their own pet IG regiments and dedicated naval vessals. To call yiffs heretics would be like calling the old testament noncanon.

>not posting page 2

>smiley face.
Truly the emperor's chosen and total bros

>Black Templars

What the fuck?

Why would the literal Monk chapter be fucking?

They keep fucking the xenos a new one if that counts.

In real life, mutations in a parent are not passed on unless the mutation is actually in the reproductive organs.

So you could probably have space marines reproduce and they would still be making the same children they would have had if they weren't space marines.

Personally, I don't think they're actually sterile but rather that the conditioning they're put through makes most of them so far removed from the human condition they simply no longer care.

At least one Space Wolf for instance from the novels was heavily implied to have an ongoing relationship with a woman he was escorting.

...

...

Ahh yes. I remember listening to the ebook version read by Gilbert Gottfried.

Yeah.

I assumed it's their actual families, just not descendant from them obviously, like "hey it's great uncle Vulkan"

If, IF, a marine could reproduce (a touchy subject for GW, expect no clear answer) the child would exhibit zero marine traits bevause the process is mostly surgical with little to no genetic modification. They're like biological androids. Sometimes marines end up looking more like their Primarch, this could easily be because they came from the same planet or because their genes match up better so they survive the astartes process better than those who did not look like the primarch.

Templars aren't monks. They're more like teutonic knights
