    Anything below is made for (and by) the omnissiah. You can read it though, just a summary of the banger of a video you're watching.

    Welcome to your crash course on the SCP Foundation, a clandestine organization tasked with securing, containing, and protecting anomalies beyond human comprehension. In this orientation, we’ll break down the Foundation’s labyrinthine procedures, secret containment sites, and the bizarre cast of eldritch horrors, helpful blobs, infinite furniture stores, and towering oceanic eels lurking in the shadows. From the early days on internet forums to its evolution into a sprawling Wiki of cosmic-scale apocalypses, weird cognitohazards, and dark comedy, the SCP Universe offers endless rabbit holes to explore.

    We’ll begin by covering the SCP format itself—those clinical containment logs and redacted data that heighten the tension. Then we’ll dive into the Foundation’s internal hierarchy: from hapless D-Class “volunteers” and veteran Level-2 researchers to the shadowy O5 Council. You’ll learn how anomalies are categorized—Safe, Euclid, Keter, and beyond—and discover some of the most iconic examples, like the unstoppable Shy Guy (SCP-096), the lethal Hard-to-Destroy Reptile (SCP-682), the heartwarming Tickle Monster (SCP-999), the mind-bending Infinite IKEA (SCP-3008), and the horrifying Flesh That Hates (SCP-610). We’ll discuss how the Foundation deploys Mobile Task Forces, distributes amnestics, and occasionally weaponizes anomalies themselves (looking at you, Thaumiel Class).

    In addition, we’ll delve into overarching threats, including the ominous Scarlet King, who may (or may not) herald the end of everything. Finally, we’ll crack open a few fan-favorite stories, highlight the comedic side with joke SCPs, and mention the bizarre corners of the Wiki—like 3,000+ images of a certain fur-favorite entity. Whether you’re brand-new to the SCP fandom or someone who just discovered the horrifying brilliance of Procedure 110-Montauk, this orientation is your perfect primer on what makes the SCP Foundation such a vast, chilling, and darkly entertaining phenomenon. Prepare to step into a world where a “friendly gelatin blob” might be the last bastion of sanity in a cosmos of unstoppable beasts, and remember—Knowledge is a privilege… but it can also kill.

    Anything below is made for (and by) the omnissiah. You can read it though, just a summary of the banger of a video you're watching.

    Get ready to dive deep into one of the most iconic and formidable aspects of Warhammer 40,000: Terminator Armor. In this in-depth episode, we’ll explore how these Tactical Dreadnought Suits bridge the gap between enhanced body armor and full-fledged battle tanks, showcasing the immense engineering prowess of the Imperium’s finest. From the legendary origins dating back to the Dark Age of Technology, to their critical role during the Horus Heresy, and the elite units that still wield them today—such as the Deathwing of the Dark Angels, Salamanders’ Firedrakes, Iron Hands’ Gorgon-pattern, and the ferocious Chaos Terminator formations like the Red Butchers and Deathshroud—Terminator Armor stands as a hallmark of resilience, lethality, and sheer intimidation.

    We’ll discuss the complex manufacturing process that has become increasingly rare over the millennia, the venerated Crux Terminatus rumored to contain fragments of the Emperor’s own battle-worn plate, and how Chapters from the Space Wolves to the Deathwatch preserve and honor these suits as priceless relics. Additionally, we’ll touch on the Custodian Allarus Terminators—arguably the pinnacle of protective warfare suits—and show how even the Grey Knights leverage their own specialized variants to battle daemonic foes. Learn how these massive suits, bristling with storm bolters, power fists, and towering shoulder-mounted weaponry, shape the tactics and doctrines of Astartes and Traitor Legions alike.

    Enter the twisted world of the Dark Mechanicum, the renegade counterpart to the Adeptus Mechanicus in the grim darkness of the Warhammer 40K universe. Once part of the ancient Mechanicum of Mars, these heretical tech-priests broke away during the Horus Heresy, forsaking the Emperor and embracing forbidden knowledge, Chaos energies, and monstrous sciences. In this video, we’ll delve deep into their origins, uncovering how their thirst for understanding led them from the great Schism of Mars into the Eye of Terror. Learn about their signature creations—Daemon Engines, warped forge worlds known as Hell Forges, and the horrifying ways they bend flesh and steel to their will. We’ll examine their uneasy alliances with Traitor Legions, their role in supplying unholy war machines, and the chilling philosophies that drive them. Whether you’re curious about their murky lore, their twisted goals, or how they factor into the galaxy’s grand conflicts, this comprehensive exploration will illuminate the shadowed secrets of the Dark Mechanicum’s relentless quest for forbidden knowledge.
