The skull iconography in the Imperium is the symbol of Emperor's sacrifice and ascension like Christians and crosses . Pre HH the Imperium was using almost exclusively the Lightning and/or Aquilla iconography (except for Death Guard and Night Hunters... those fucking heretical wankers).
Chaos is using skulls as blasphemy against that, but also as a terror motif.
Mechanicus is using cog-skull to symbolise that flesh is weak and thus it needs to be replaced by machienery
Necrons don't use it (they look like skeletons tho)
Tau don't use it
Eldars don't use it
Tyranids don't use it
Orks don't use it (tho they wear them like a fucking fashion statement)
Also I still don't get why Tau are such a fucking big deal... they hold less territory than fucking Ultramarines, they can't travel for shit and they still didn't face any major Chaos threats so all that bullshit about them being 'immune' or 'resistant' to corruption is just blowing water. For fucks sakes during the last Tyrannic invasion they went fo DARK fucking ELDAR for help... how's that for retarded

Tau were meant to be Games Workshops way to try and get some noblebright into the grimdarkness of the grimdark universe of 40k.

But the recent Codex/lore updates state: "The Imperials, refusing to graciously accept their defeat, have enacted the unthinkable. They unleashed a weapon of mass destruction on Mu’gulath Bay. The world was set to blaze. Millions of Tau died alongside the surviving Imperial forces that could not have been evacuated (estimated to be 50% of the surviving Imperial forces). The devastation did not stop there. The blaze blossomed into a great conflagration that expended and covered the entirety of the Damocles Gulf in a corrosive sea of plasmic flame. The Tau Empire is cut off from its newly won colonies and worlds and the rest of the galaxy."


So its assumed that some of the Tau on either side of this Trump Wall of Plasma are going to either go batshit insane and go grimdark or just be normal Tau.

Also to top it off: "Shadowsun and Farsight bid farewell to each but not before Shadowsun warning Farsight that there will be a reckoning between them in the future. Farsight returned to his Enclaves to find under the shadow of Leviathan. The fight is far from over." Tyranids in yo base gg no re Tau fags.

>Imperials
>Defeat
NOPE...
That's the whole point of Exterminatus... if we can't have it, fuck you, nobody will have it!

So I'm not surprised

Why can't the Tau understand that mankind literally doesn't give a single nano fuck at this point?
Tau: "OH MY THE HORROR. ALL THOSE PEOPLE. ALL THOSE LIVES. THE HORROR."

Imperium: "My lord we unfortunately had to make a full retreat from the Tau world. The mechanicus thought it wise to deploy the great weapon we recently discovered but almost half of the crusading forces were destroyed."

"If i'm reading this report correctly it also says that the Tau world was destroyed and their Empire now divided by a massive plasma wall?"

"Yes lord but they will soon be able to build ships capable of traversing it."

"Eh fuck it. We killed more of those bastards than we lost and we've also inconvenienced them for the time being. Send the surviving commanders my good graces. Now then where the fuck is my dataslate? The newest episode of Life of an Imperial Conscript is on."

One would think that Tau would somehow learn just what kind of realm they're poking. For fucks sake I doubt that they would be able to survive even a fraction of the shit that is getting thrown Imperium's way every other Tuesday. Like do they even know that Imperium is basically in control of the whole galaxy? Or that they have wars with enemies that would skin Tau Empire with just recon fleet? Or that they can defend themselves agains attacks that would level the fucking segmentum if left unchallenged?

At what point they'll realize that somehow those people are everywhere they go... and they seem to have endless supply or tanks, troops and if pressed, Space Marines... and more of them they kill, more shit is crawling from the void... and that shit is WAY worse than those humans... and kinda doesn't want to hear their pseudo-hippie bullshit about Greater Good for Etereals ... and it kinda can't be stopped by their fucking animu guns, toy robots and pet cannibals.

I would love to see the look on the Ethereal's face when one of the really big Tau gundams gets trapped in Tesseract Labyrinth. Or when half their army turns into vapor due to Pylon firing at something half a click away. Or when one of their planets turns into a slave pit for some Chaos Lord and all their shiny skyscrapers turn into bombed out brick shithouses and the captives are foced to eat one another for 'Greater Good'... those fucking wankers have no fucking clue what's going on in the galaxy around them. But at least they have their fucking evangelions and communist samurais with nerf guns.

Isn't that thing just representation of Gork / Mork?

You mean this? Wiki claims it's a totem or something.

*rolls RP*

Damocles Gulf mentioned

Swell with FUCK HUEG WALLS OF PLASMA

Also, for hanging out with Paps & Undyne- go to Papyrus's house in Snowdin after defeating him. For Undyne, after you GIVE HER THE WATER HOLY SHIT THAT'S SO IMPORTANT you need to go to her house, right next to Blook Acres in Waterfall.

Here's a few tips for Asgore:

First, a tip for any boss in the game, if you have a controller you can use that, the game is actually controller compatible. You may find it more comfortable then arrow keys.

Second, talking to Asgore until you've expended all the talk options will reduce his attack and defense.

Lastly, if you've saved the butterscotch pie until that final battle, using it during the fight will also reduce his attack and defense further.

Everything else is practice.

Well people have theories that Chara is the in-game narrator and if you do a pacifist run she just stays like that, not doing anything evil because each time you show mercy and try to be good/nice to everyone Chara's determination comes into conflict with Frisk's and is eventually beaten by it. It's the opposite in a genocide run where Chara herself states that each time you killed something/showed no mercy/were evil she fed on your evil determination ( which is the same as hers ) and grew in power alongside you, eventually completely dominating Frisk and surpassing even you, the player.

I know that. Flowey wasn't a dick to you because Flowey is Asriel, who was Chara's friend.
