That was lore from the 8E codex, yeah. The "thing" about the Shadowkeepers is the Emperor's old forgotten Storage Unit got raided and now all that shit is out in the galaxy again -- and every single one of those things is something that could fuck a ton of shit up if it's left unchecked. The obvious is stuff like warp horrors and heretics and archotech weaponry that were locked in stasis, but I'm also thinking of stuff like political prisoners that could fracture the Imperium into civil war. For example, imagine if Benedin IV (the leader of the Ecclesiarchy who caused the Age of Apostasy) was locked up down there in stasis and got out.Well, I just looked into the Custodes' Shadowkeepers part of their codex and a passage jumps at me:
"Worse still are the cells that stand suddenly empty - the entities and artefacts once contained within spirited away by some unholy force to curse the galaxy once more."
So anything locked under Terra is no longer Can't Touch This.
I hadn't considered an entire legion being locked in there, but that actually would be an interesting take on things. 2nd and 11th... I really do think they will eventually use the 2nd and 11th, but they're definitely "in case of disastrous edition fuckup break glass" sort of thing in my mind.
Dear god, please don't let the big secret of the 2nd and 11th be that they were women and that's how they force Female Space Marines into the lore.
Also this is new to me:
That's supposed to be the Dark Reaper Exarch. EEEEH.
