If being an untouchable is an genetic thing (ie the pariah gene) couldn't you get the blood from untouchables to make Daemon-proof weapons and armour?

Couldn't you get Untouchable Foetuses and suck the delicious Untouchable stem cells out of them to make anti-Daemon paint that you could just apply to walls, floors and the hulls of starships?

Hell, just get untouchables to make regular blood donations and you have an infinitely renewable Daemon Poison.

Could it even work? If it can, why hasn't it been done?

trips and dubs, holy shit

Incredibly hard to reproduce.
I don't think it is as much a breedable/inherent trait. But a fluke that can happen in certain genetic lines.
Since very few people would want to have sex with an untouchable, since they make your skin crawl and make people queasy

>If being an untouchable is an genetic thing (ie the pariah gene) couldn't you get the blood from untouchables to make Daemon-proof weapons and armour?
It's a genetic thing that affects the soul.

Blood doesn't have a soul.

This is like saying use psyker blood to get psyker weapons. Doesn't really work too well.

But, go ahead and try it, might work well enough to kill something.

As rare as untouchables almost.

>Blood doesn't have a soul.

If you can paint yourself with SoB blood to make yourself invisible to daemon nanomachines, you can take pariah blood and banish daemons.

>Could it even work?
No.

If nothing else, there's the issue that Pariahs aren't immune to being shot - daemons might not be able to see them, but that doesn't mean their followers can't, or that if a stray sword-swipe hits them they won't die.

For the "body parts/fluids" aspect, it's an untouchable's soul that makes them work - outside the connection to the soul, it's just blood, not anti-daemon poison.
The only reason blessed blood works is because it's surrounded by and absorbing psychic energy - the exact opposite of what would happen for pariah blood.

What happens if you put male untouchable and female untpouchable together?

Double Dubs Truth

Grey knights doing hidden khornate rituals to protect themselves from demons isn't going to work for blood that supposedly stops demons from attacking you.

They don't touch each other.

Duh

Just a fuckton of teasing then?

They have no soul because of their DNA? If you took pariah cum into a bullet and shot slanesh in the ass, i'm sure it wouldn't tickle, no homo.

Didn't Eisenhorn want to bone an Untouchable?

Because it's the job of any rad inquisitor to bone everything that hasn't been boned yet.
EVERYTGING.
Duh

Nothing since blanks don't have more blank children than regular people.

Do other untouchables feel the aura of wierdness?

Could you set up an untouchable planet with a stable demon population? It'd be invisible to most enemies, have zero risk of demonic incursion, and if they don't skeeve each other out they could be relatively "happy"

I read somewhere about a tome in the Black Library made from the skin of a pariah so the warp can't corrupt the book

Schizophrenia has a strong gentic link, you would not go mad if you got a blood transfusion from one.

Clearly not.
Its not in the game or lore.

Don't listen to the morons above.

Pariahs body parts still carry the Pariah effect to an extent.

Giving some examples, Imperium Ordos Xenos vessels fire torpedoes filled with ashes of pariah persons at Aledari vessels to disable their psychic shielding and systems. Also Fabius Bile loads his Needler with the biological fluids of pariahs when he fights daemons. Daemons shot by Needles fielded with Pariah extract have their bodies dissolving.

Also Drach'nyen after murdering the SoS found that even their dead bodies held no satisfaction. They had no taste at all.

>Could you set up an untouchable planet
What?
>with a stable demon population?
What?
>It'd be invisible to most enemies
What?

He wanted to. But could not.

They don't.
There is no " stable demon population".
Unless they are blind, it's still visible.

Blessed by the emperor!

BY THE EMEPEROR, THIS THREAD IS CHOSEN!

>This is like saying use psyker blood to get psyker weapons. Doesn't really work too well.
THE DARK ELDAR WOULD BEG TO DIFFER

MANY OF THEIR ARTIFACTS ARE MADE OUT OF DEAD PSYKERS

>Blood doesn't have a soul.

THEN WHY IS IT UBIQUITOUSLY USED TO SUMMON DAEMONS OR REPEL THEM OR BLESS OR CURSE STUFF? OR TO MAKE BLOOD ANGELS WHO ARE IMBUED WITH A PORTION OF THEIR PRIMARCH'S MEMORY FOR THAT MATTER?

BLOOD IS USED AS PSYCHIC FUEL ALL THE FUCKING TIME

NOT EVEN NECESSARILY PSYKER BLOOD

Pretty sure I remember reading about psyk-out grenades being made out of dead psykers, so you don't even need pariahs to make those weapons

In the case of those grenades, aren't they essentially psychically drained psyker bodies?

Reminder that it's official fluff that women are more likely to be soulless than men.

>Caps lock everywhere
Is it the SoS equivalent of yelling ?

>BLOOD IS USED AS PSYCHIC FUEL ALL THE FUCKING TIME

Besides fucking ALLCAPS ... this is mostly due to the symbolic nature of bloodletting. You actually have to hurt or kill some living being so that the blood 'counts', blood packs from a donor bank don't count (unless the blood was drawn under gruesome circumstances maybe). Same with Dark Eldar, they are all about the suffering ... psyker souls simply resonate better in the Warp and their body parts most likely get suffused with all the suffering inflicted, making them potent artifacts ... like pain batteries.

I think it'd turn into something akin to zookeepers trying to get pandas to mate.

>BLOOD IS USED AS PSYCHIC FUEL ALL THE FUCKING TIME

Sometimes not even as psychic.

I guess. I mean, if Grey Knights can get bonus faith points for smearing Ecclesiarchal blood on themselves, it's pretty fair to assume you could get extra magic resistance from Culexus blood.

If you somehow introduced the Pariah Gene to Ork spores, would that destroy the entire race since their innate affinity for building shit, growing big and strong, and even congregating comes from latent psychic ability?

Blood sorcery tends to summon daemons, not banish them.

You'd have to introduce it into every single ork in the galaxy and at that point might as well just hit them with a flamer, it's cheaper.

She was hot enough to partially overcome the subconscious bad Pariah impression.

How would you "introduce the Pariah Gene to Ork spores"? Ork biology is inherently self-correcting in the extreme. If you don't contribute to the Waagh effect, that makes you unorky and if you're unorky, you get krumped out of the gene pool.

Blood doesn't work. You have to use the brain juice.

>What happens if you put male untouchable and female untouchable together?
There are two levels of anti-warp:

1) Blanks/Nulls. They have the Pariah gene in a recessive form. They have no soul to speak of, and a calming/nulifying effect on the warp. A human near one feels uncomfortable, and a pysker near one feels like they've been stabbed in both eyes. Generally they end up as outcasts in whatever societies they come from. Examples include Jurgen and Bequin.

2) Pariahs. They have the Pariah gene in its fully active form. They have a howling vortex of negative-energy where a soul should be. A human simply being near one feels an unstoppable hatred and fear of them, so most get killed by their parents immediately after birth. Pyskers get it even worse, feeling their soul being slowly pulled from their bodies. As with positive pyskers, with training they can learn to control their powers and get even more terrifying. Examples include Culexus Assassins and Necron Pariahs.

So if two Blanks have a child, the baby is likely going to be a Pariah. And this is likely where most Pariahs come from, as blank parents would be immune to their soul-sucking and so you wouldn't get the "killed in the crib" issue.

Years of passionate ambivalence.

Why hasn't the imperium forcibly collected thousands of pariahs/blanks and given them their own planet where they can freely breed and produce more powerful weapons for the crusade against the warp?

Double edged sword. No telling if Warp travel to and from said planet would even be possible if you gather such a large number of them.

there aren't enough pariahs and the imperium doesn't really have an organisation capable of it.
As well as the culexus temple, various organisations gather pariahs and blanks for various reasons: the inquisition is a common employer iirc.

>>Tfw no Blank focused game where you get to play a Culexus and fluster sisters of silence with inappropriate flirting

Source?
It makes sense, but I just thought they all were the same.

>They have a howling vortex of negative-energy where a soul should be.

If you get enough of them together, could you potentially create an anti-warp?
Perhaps even anti-warp gods, and anti-warp demons?

If you could, the Necrons would have done it already.

>plasma weapons use blood plasma
Out of all the retarded thing printed by GW, this is in the top ten.

because blankness and psychic powers aren't unheritable.

It wouldn't tickle but it also wouldn't make Slaanesh have an allergic reaction, either.

I think they just add some blood of martyrs into the mix. Like having ashes of a loved one squeezed into diamonds.

>because blankness and psychic powers aren't unheritable
The Pariah gene can be inherited. From the 7th edition SoS minidex :
>Wherever the Sisters of Silence sought out new lives, they were hounded into exile once more by those that hated them for their intrinsic otherness. Still, not all were reviled or burned as witches. The offspring of these few had children of their own, and over the generations, the genetic peculiarity of the Silent Sisterhood found its way further into the vast spread of the human race.

Fabius Bile would do that, the fucking mad man

mutations are inheritable, why not psyker mutations?

I just call it a full house

I think the Newcrons are mostly worried about trying to turn back into Necrontyr and don't care very much about the Warp. They seem to see it more as an annoying reminder of how gay the Old Ones were than anything else.

Although, Trazyn did show up on Cadia during the 13th Black Crusade, so at least one Necron is still interested in shitting on Chaos.

>Why hasn't the imperium forcibly collected thousands of pariahs/blanks
They have: it's called the Culexus Temple of assassins.

Blanks crop up randomly and are incredibly rare, estimated at around one in a billion humans. So on a planet of 2 billion you might have two blanks on different continents, enslaved or working menial jobs where they don't have to interact with other people much. And the most likely way to get a Pariah is if those two blanks somehow manage to meet and have a child.

Plus, it's not 100% genetics. As with all warp-thingys there's a mystical component that refuses to act scientifically/predictably.

And then after you've done all that the Necrons turn up and abduct the kid to put his brain in a robot.

Well to be fair shitting on things for kicks is pretty much what Trazyn does all the time.

>mutations are inheritable
Nope.
If mutations were stable, they would be abhumans.
You can be a mutant with eyestalks, and your children will be covered with scales. Chaos is fun like that.

>It'd be invisible to most enemies
Literally only to daemons and the non-physical senses of psykers. A regular-ass non-psychic could still see their asses and shoot them without any issue.

Aside from the fact that they're stupidly rare, there's also the whole "constantly radiate an aura of wrongness that ranges from 'uncomfortable' to 'homicidal rage inducing' from birth" thing. Those few that survive to be found usually get snatched up to become Culexus assassins.

There is probably some old AdMech book by some magos biologis labeled "Black Day Protocol" that describes a way to change Pariah gene into dominant trait in populations of whole worlds through use of virus agents. This book sits in some old and very secure repository that could be opened only with explicit permission from both AdMech and High Lords of Terra - for to use this book means to rob the humanity of stars.

>Plasma weapons use blood plasma

You're joking, right? Those are two different types of plasma. This is the most retarded thing I've heard come 40k and that's saying something.

Harem animes are blank colonies.

This would actually be in keeping with the stupidity of the rest of 40ks fluff.

>Those are two different types of plasma
That's why this idea is hilarious and I will totally use it in my next Dark Heresy game.

>that could be opened only with explicit permission from both AdMech and High Lords of Terra
Might as well say it doesn't fucking exist

yeah, he loved bequin and when she was away from him he could have it in his head that he wants to fuck her.
When he saw her in person he was revolted and she made his skin crawl, but he was polite enough to hide that.

Poison made from blank blood

Fabius Vile: Primogenitor book

"The daemon screamed as the poison took effect.
(...)
The solution tore the entity apart from the inside, unbinding the strange matter that made up its form. Kanathara droped its blades and tore at itself, ripping chunks from its dissolving flesh as if to dig out the infection. It stumbled on melting hooves, almost dancing in its agonies."

>You're joking, right?

Yes, he is. The WD article on them says that they mix blood of martyrs with prometheum. Exact mix is not given, I suspect very small amounts, if at all, just so they can advertise it as being somehow more sacrosanct and thus powerful.
