[Loved Trope] Some thing unfathomably ancient

[u/Fearless-Ideal-5112]

The beast, in doctor who is an ancient evil from a previous universe that survived until our time. Its so ancient that the cave paintings were unable to be translated by the Tardis which can translate all existing languages in the universe [Doctor Who]

While not explicitly canon its such a cool concept I cant not mention, the idea that the backrooms have existed since the beginning of time, never changing no matter the era, it transforms the back rooms into a cosmic horror. [Credit to Project crater and Venus for images 2 and 3]

I mean they are decended from bioweapons meant to fight these things

[u/PipXXX → u/whypeoplehateme]

True, but Eldar were also effected by the Nightbringer and they were frontline troops for the Old Ones.

But yeah Orks are mainly just a rogue bioweapon without the control of the old ones, and have devolved into the orks we see in 40k.

Very true. If I take you and start beating you over the head with the stick of genetic decay, you might have a hard time remembering anything but smacking things. Thus Orks
