So are lots of mutants.

Many heretical and unholy things were born upon Terra in the Dark Age of Technology and the Age of Strife that followed.

The Emperor ordered that none of them should survive.

Genestealers.

Not true, the Emperor even allowed Beastmen to serve in the Imperial Guard.

HURR XENOS DUURRRR PURGE

They would have similar status as Felinid - barely tolerated by Inquisition, extremely popular companion/pet with Rogue Traders and Planetary Governors

How come there are no Beastmen in the Guard? Unless by 'Beastmen' you mean Abhuman, in which case the Abhumans we have are still vastly human.

hey gaiz i got a cwestchun, wat duz impernimum solders think of neu bread? lol 4 tha emprur #40k40life

Can we instead just dial the Octo/Squid speciesism up to 11, make the Imperium of Squids and the Octar/D-octar(The latter of which created Slaanesh via tentacle porn), create the 40Squid universe, then go from there?

You know, I find the best solution to that is to find an unwilling human male and force open two new holes that you can Hatefuck your anger away with. I recommend the muscle at the back of the legs as an entry point, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CREATE AN ENTRY POINT IN THE TORSO. The human body stores too much Bacteria in the internal organs to risk it. Leg muscle or particularly doughy arms are much more optimal.
Still, wear a condom. Forcibly opening a wound into someone's leg and Fucking it without a condom on would just be insane.

Don't use an edge to make the opening, a stab wound is going to do you much better. I recommend the spiral knife found on /k/ for best results.

Sanctioned Abhumans. A more amphibious variety of Homo sapiens oceanus, or Pelagers as they are more colloquially known.

>born in holy terra
>xenos

I figure by the time of the Apostasy they were more or less extinct

*loyal* beastmen, not just *beastmen*

there were plenty of normal humans the Emperor wouldn't touch with the shitty stick Rogal Dorn kept up his ass

that was the whole purpose of Angron

Inklings actually melt in water. They're basically living constructs of oil paint.

Debateable. Barring one line from the NoA translation that might be a mistranslation or just made up by the treehouse, all signs point to the issue being that they can't swim, as seen in the Manga.

If you play the games, you can actually watch them melt right out of their clothes as they dissolve in the water. It's pretty brutal.

Spreading their essence over an area to seize it and create a zone of influence from which they can endlessly recreate their corporeal forms sounds pretty Chaos.

They also desolve when falling from great height, such as on Morey Towers. There's a case to be made that it's a saftey recall rather than actual biology. There's also clearly water bottles in the vending machines throughout both games, so english Marina saying water itself is fatal is already questionable. There seems to be a destinction between splating and death, given the inklings can still move and speak while splatted during salmon run thanks to the life perservers, though without a respawn point splatting may lead to death, not that nintendo would answer that in a kids game. There's also mention of Inklings wearing swimsuits, and they aren't swimming in Ink since Ink only lasts for some unspecified amount of time slightly longer than 5 minutes.

Unrelated, but the phrase "gets your/my ink pumping" used in places in the second game implies they bleed ink.

Abhumans that may or may not be purged, depending on their loyalty, usefulness, and vulnerability to Chaos.

>Sanctioned Abhumans.
The creatures in splatoon are mutated sea creatures, not mutated human beings.

Actually, they did explain why ink disappears in Splatoon 2- there are microbes that rapidly eat it. If you wanted to swim in it, you could presumably add preservatives to it that'd prevent it from dissolving so quickly. And beyond that, Inklings would wear swimsuits whether or not they can swim simply because their greatest drive in life is to look fresh.

When falling from a height, inklings "poof" instead of the elaborate dissolving animation that plays in water. Water bottles are certainly no sure indication that Inklings can tolerate water, either, since there are many non-Inkling species that populate the city. Jellyfish are 99% water, after all.

Until it's contradicted outright by an official source, it's safe to say that water is anathema to Inklings.

>poisonous substance
>easily accsesable to ignorant 6 year old squibs with some loose change
The manga is an official source, technically. Given Marina's line regarding it is NoA only the manga's depiction would trump it.

What if Guilliman has an inkling gf?

Even supposing the manga weren't a secondary source, which it is, it's a quick gag and doesn't make it clear exactly what's happening to them in the water.

>easily accsesable to ignorant 6 year old squibs with some loose change
Ever heard of bleach?

Bleach isn't sold right next to root beer, though.
It's quite clear they're submerged in water in one panel, then wet in the next. They climbed out.
A secondary source is better than nothing. But if you want primary here you go
>Callie:The jellyfish look like they're having fun playing in the pool.
>Marie:...Should we try it?
A quote from the japanese version, translated. I doubt Marie would suggest this if water was as bad for them as it seems.
If i'm being 100% fair, there's no real way to say for sure. There's evedence enough to support both sides, but nothing to conferm either way. The height of inklings was the same up till the second artbook gave Pearl as a little under 5 feet tall and Marina just under 6.

I mean, I find it really weird that you're taking a panel of a gag manga as higher canon than actual gameplay. Falling in even ankle deep water in Salmon Run kills you just as dead as being struck by the Salmonids, and they have no reason to pull their punches. Respawners are seemingly common and easy to maintain, so honestly even if a squib drinks water by accident it's probably just going to respawn nearby with an important lesson learned. Like a kid putting his hand on the stove. But I suppose without any further sources there's small odds of either of us convincing the other, so we'll just have to wait for Splatoon 3.
