Shouldn't the Space Wolf be Iconoclast, and not Dogmatic?
From all Lore that i know they've been described to not believe that the Emperor is an God, and usually border on being deemed heretical from the way that they act.

From fighting Grey Knights over the lives of Civilians in the Months of Shame to usually not really seeming to care about the imperial cult.

Dogmatic choices seem universally to be about "For the Emperor! Suffer not the Witch/Xeno/Heretic to live!" where as Iconoclast choices are usually in favor of the common man, which seems far more in line with what we know about Space Wolf behavior when it comes to the common people.

Edit: Talking to him points all the above out, which is odd that they gave him dogmatic traits.

I dunno, in one of the Cain novels, a Guards(wo)man describes sneaking up on an Ork as it was taking a piss. So apparently they at least have something to do so with.

It's a mushroom and two spores. They urinate. It can become a functioning sexual organ in the extremely rare (IE: no canon examples exist that I am aware of, other than that it's explicitly stated to be possible) event that they become corrupted by Slaanesh.



and since when could orcs become chaos corrupted weres this lore coming from ? i must know
Zagin Dec 18, 2023 @ 10:15pm

Here's the thing people miss about the warhammer alignment lore - it's lawful vs chaotic, not good vs evil.

Ulfar is Lawful Good. There are plenty of Lawful Neutral and Lawful Evil people in the Empire. Hell it's pretty easy to make the argument that the Empire more resembles the Empire in star wars than anything else.

Regardless of his good vs evil, he's squarely on the side of the law.

ahh so chaos corrupted orcs was retconed along time ago as they can only ever belive in gork and mork chaos can affect them chaos just cant use them in eny way they "could control" other then starting a WARGH!!! that would just as soon fight chaos as eny thing else around

If someone says heresy, do you instantly shoot them in the face, or do you ask them why first? If you shoot first, you are dogmatic, if you ask why you are iconoclast. So the question you ask yourself, do the space wolves shoot first or ask questions?

*Glances at the Months of Shame*

I feel like they might ask a question or two.

To be honest the whole clash of Space Wolves and Inquisition is the fault of Emil Darkhammer. The famous clown idiot of the Inquisition. I wonder why the guy is still alive, and no one hadn't put a bolt in his skull.
Everyone knows that. Also you do not just go and accuse first founding chapter of anything.

Huh. Darkhammer being involved with the Months of Shame is a new one to me. I thought it was Ghesmei Kysnaros who was in charge, but now there's some conflicting claims I saw that Darkhammer downgraded the Armageddon suppression from Exterminatus to "mere" purging of the population.

Of course, Exterminatus on a world as vital as Armageddon, after it had been cleared of the worst threats, would've been exceptionally daft anyway..

As for Darkhammer, unfortunately, even the most rabid, wasteful, counter-productive, Imperium-endangering psychopaths tend to thrive in the Inquisition as long as they're Puritans like Darkhammer.

Just look at Fyodor Krazypants- I mean Karamazov.
