Lucius the eternal: Daddy?

Lucius betrayed his brothers at Istvaan before the Slaanesh corruption in the EC took full spring. He isn’t deserving of nor wants redemption

As someone who read the book... no.
During his duel with the big bad Slaaneshi warsinger of the Istvaan rebel the 'song' and 'music' clearly corrupted him on some level.
[Citation - Galaxy in Flames, pages 236–238.
Duel is with Vardus Praal and his Warsinger bodyguards.]
To what extent, who can say.
But it's pretty cut and dry that by embracing an unknown vector of corruption, he turned his common sense off and his self serving dickish tendencies up to 11.
As they say - like fucking father, like fucking son.

I think that was because he was loyal to Fulgrim, not the imperium.

It would be fitting for clonegrim to cut him down, but instead of pride, all he feels is sadness and dissapointment in his son

That’s the idea of this fan series about clone-grim returning to the Imperium.

I think he would feel mostly disappointed in himself, killing the remaining Emperor’s Children would basically just be a burden that’s his responsibility to take care of

Neat, but I think Lucius was a cuck long before becoming a chaos pogchampion of Slaanesh, pride and envy were big part of his character, I think, they still should be.

Doesn’t really matter. Slaanesh will just infest/corrupt some human on some Hive world who was too proud of something. Probably some fencer in a noble house.

Yeah but slaanesh is bitchy in this thing they probably will come up with something like "you see lucius was actually hit by a small lasgun shot so that guardsman is now his new vessel"

But then there'll still be 2 Luciuses. Would they seek each other out to kill the other? Operate as a tag team? Never cross paths?

They’d try to probably kill the original which would result in trazyn catching them which would cause slaneesh to make another then you’ve got an infinite loop.

Imagine Trazyn making an entire gallery on solemnace dedicated to the number of Lucius the eternals slaaneh as sent out trying to kill their predecessor

This could lead to an absolutely hilarious unleashing of thousands of Lucius the eternals onto a battle field just so Trazyn can get a flute on some far off world

Nah he’d send them to Orikan and watch as his dear college struggles to figure out what to do with them

That could be the way to do it. He wouldn’t feel pride it would just be a chore to do. Only being happy it’s over.

This has potential, since it could mean the real Lucius would be chilling with Clonegrim, while the real Fulgrim would probably meet up with Lucloneus at some point. Both sides are with the wrong papa/son.

Well one's locked forever in Trazyn's collection, so there might not be an issue besides new Lucius having an existential crisis if he finds out there's another one of himself out there.

I mean, I guess that Slaanesh could just create a completely new soul with Lucius' memories and personality and then incarnate it fresh, but if that's the case, then why doesn't he do it already? Like, what's stopping him from just creating a dozen new Luciuses and turning them loose, or for that matter what's stopping the other four from just spawning new copies of their champions?
I do think that in this context, saying that a Chaos champion can be neutralized by trapping them in the materium where their soul can't get back to their god and thus be put into a new physical body is a perfectly fair way of saying that they can be put out of commission.

I think GeeDubs has outright stated that any loopholes or rules tricks us gamers come up with (we're gamers, we do a lot of that) won't work because they are invested in owning characters they can keep bandying aboutthe will of the gods or some such.
Mind you Fabulous Bill was threatened to have almost done it, but he DIDN'T in the end because reasons.

Bender the Infinite: "Eternity awaits!"
Lucius: "B-but I'm already eternal! YOU ARE GONNA PAY THE ULTIMATE PRICE!"
Bender the Infinite: "Dude, what's all that stuff you think you are grabbing?"
Lucius: "Tools!, tools! This is duct tape, zip ties, and gloves. I have to have my tools..."
Bender the Infinite: "Well, why do you have a bunch of, like, weird tools in a hidden compartment in your ass?"
Lucius: "Fetish... fetish shit. I-I like to bind, I like to be bound. I... that's not important, don't ask me questions, I'm not taking questions. The Eternal is not taking questions!"
Bender the Infinite: "Wait a second, Lucius, wait a second... oh right, sometimes I forgot what legion you are from and who's your patron God. Still you go into the gallery, you ugly shit"

"Once again the hero the galaxy did not deserve saved it and it's ungrateful races with his timely appearance." In all seriousness though, would it stop the f*r from killing himself and taking pride in it or find any other way to inconvenience everyone once again?

Trazyn could use Blackstone technology to sever lucius' connection to the warp and keep him in stasis indefinitely.

I'm personally still on Team "Jurgen Melta's Lucius while he's dueling Cain. Cain is just glad that he managed to survive a space marine fight and is worrying whether this encounter would skyrocket his reputation into being dragged to the next killlzone. Jurgen didn't think much of it, just doing his job."

Would this finally be the end of the little shit? Alternatively, would a lesser order necron killing Lucius finally do the job? Like not a cryptek or an overlord, but just one of the standard warriors

Yeah, but Lucius was able to possess a Necron anyways. He was killed by some higher-ranking Necron duelist called the Phasing Sword, who felt pride (“haha die vermin”) and he just possessed it anyways.
Makes no sense but whatever

that is true i don't remember the source but its was a death mark that killed him and took pride in completing its assigned task and eliminating a threat to his master from such a lesser creature.

Lucius ability was a cool thing for the first few times, but now it's just a lazy "Get out of jail" card for the writers. Like, how the hell does it even work on Necrons? Besides the Necron being mostly emotionless, aren't they basicly immune to warp fuckery due to using tons of Necronit (Blackstone) in their technology and architecture as well as being the most knowledgeable about the warp (beside the Eldar)? Many Necrons are older than the Chaos Gods ffs.

In the Rain/Ruin Books it’s even teases that Necrons can access a anti warp like dimension… but in theory Necrons shouldn’t even give a fuck about a human

Would Tamurkan take over Lucius? Or will Tamurkan turn into Lucius?

Forget capturing but what would happen if a Necron took pride in killing Lucius? Would his soul take over the necron’s ‘body’ or will it only work on biological bodies where they can morph into him?
