Humans having Babies with Alicorns results in Space Marines? · 8:34am Jan 13th, 2021
I feel like writing a story like this. A normal, mortal human having babies with an alicorn created super humans. As in Space Marines from Warhammer 40K.
Would you be interested in such stories?
I'm not familiar with Warhammer 40K, so no.
You say Space Marine, I think of the Halo SPARTAN program and the Slayer from DooM.
Still super-human, but not to the same degree.
Sounds interesting.
Space Marines in 40k aren't born though. They're created by taking adolescent and young-adult males and performing about twenty different invasive and extremely painful, non-anesthetized surgeries that either add new organs or make substantial changes to the existing ones. Having them be born like that would be a huge departure from canon for any 40k fans, to the point that it would probably be better to use another IP in its place.

They be stronger than Master Chief.

And somewhat silly?
5435072
Yeah. Perhaps. It could be a funny story however.
But I guess, if none somewhat more serious. Some sort of super trans-human.

Well, you could probably work in the illusion magic of ponies and the corrupting power of Chaos to make them be born and look like Space Marines. Any 'real' SM in the story would immediately know they're fakes and try to destroy them. Very Tzeentchian.

Are they?
My whole point is that I don't know.
You're talking big heresy here chief

I just wiki-ed space marines.
and it sounds interesting.

Well. It interesting I think. OP Alicorn has baby with not OP human. Their child inherits some OP elements from the pony. But also some human traits. As in let's say, ponies are strictly vegetarian and makes them little sick if they eat meat. But due to human DNA in their child, they are now able to eat meat, and even possess a few canine teeth.
And even lose some of their prey mindset. Ponies are prey. Where is humans are predators. So, the child has both a prey and predator brain.

I think Fabius Bile did something similar involving modifying women into Space Marine breeding factories, so involving Chaos is on point.
(For those of you wondering, all you need to know about Fabius is that his labcoat is made out of human skin. And the implications thereof, which are all true.)

In many of the story ideas, ive sent you, the ponies essentially have had space marine-like biology, but rather than being the result of genetic alteration and implants, they just naturally evolved that way.
Even their magic, rather than being supernatural, is more an advanced biological sci-fi thingy, like in HxH, or steven universe

Oh yeah, I remember that book. Female daemonic haemonculi was the term, I think? IIRC the women died when giving birth, and the CSM who came out were basically ogryns fused with ceramite. That was a Soul Drinkers chapter book, right?

I have no idea where it was actually from, it just came up in a discussion of female Space Marines.

I hope the first thing you said to that was HERESY.
5436146
Right, my apologies. It was the 1d4chan wiki's discussion of such, explaining that the straight examples in fanfiction are Heresy and then going on to list the canon things that could technically be described as "female Space Marines" but aren't anywhere close to what the fanfiction writers want.

Ah, that makes sense.
Sounds about right, I guess. I would have imagined something more akin to a deva, though.
