I had to double take when I saw the title, it looked too good to be true.
I'm lucky this is real.

maby but the C'Tan cant eat chaos and stay un tainted the shroud can and finds it tastyI just had a thought. How likely is it that some of the other factions in 40K will mistake the Shroud for a C'tan? The creators of the Necron are the only known energy-vores in the 40K universe.
I mean it fits the bill. Energy like beings that eat planets and suns.
True, and that is because the Shroud isn't a C'tan. Outside of seeing the Shroud munching on a Daemon, though, a lot of what the Shroud does would looks similar to someone with only a passing knowledge of the C'tan. Plus, I don't think details about the Star Vampires are common knowledge in the galaxy.maby but the C'Tan cant eat chaos and stay un tainted the shroud can and finds it tasty
You are forgetting that the Imperium and the Emperor are also tasty snacks for the Shroud.Heh heh heh.
Holy Terra was silent tonight. None of the people were sure what had happened, but the Emperor's visage, normally grim and patient (it was a skull, after all), now seemed to be smirking for some reason (now despite being a skull). Everyone was holding their breaths, waiting to find out what had caused such a change... or if the smirk was directed at them.
Deep in the Warp, four great minds awoke from strange dreams of impossible concepts unknowable by any sane mind. Awoke screaming. They assured themselves that it was only a dream, a thing that even the conceptual gods suffered at times. That was until a lesser daemon nervously scuttled in with the news...
Not exactly forgetting, but I kinda figure he'd at least enjoy the schadenfreude. Even if they/he/she/it does end up being an issue for the Imperium, it's also targeting and wiping out the Warp, which is something that I don't think anyone else is doing. So, if he's going down, at least the Daemons are going to suffer at least as much.You are forgetting that the Imperium and the Emperor are also tasty snacks for the Shroud.
But, here is a bit of fortune: The Shroud understands restraint. And, perhaps even more than that, sustainability. In realspace, the amount of energy is stupendously large, but ultimately limited. However long it would take, the Shroud expands exponentially; and will inevitably cover it all, if it so wished. But, it doesn't.
Because the Warp does not share that limitation. And, while the Shroud lacks the ability to draw from it...
We don't.
Given that, is it any wonder why the Shroud treats us as it does?
Congrats humanity, you have been elevated to the rank of 'dairy cows' in order to give the Shroud a sustainable source of Warp energies.But, here is a bit of fortune: The Shroud understands restraint.

More like fishing 'bait' to draw in the warp.Congrats humanity, you have been elevated to the rank of 'dairy cows' in order to give the Shroud a sustainable source of Warp energies.

From helpless critters hunted down by cruel, more powerful hunters to valued farm animal.Congrats humanity, you have been elevated to the rank of 'dairy cows' in order to give the Shroud a sustainable source of Warp energies.
And the best part, it cleans the planet for human settlement. Because you know the Shroud won't leave any energy behind. Now, I wonder, what can the ShrouDrich do with WAAAAAGH energy?pyskers in Warhammer get shroud body-guards...not to protect them and everyone around them of course...its more akin to have feeder fish hang around sharks...or how clown fish hang around their sea anemones...or how humans take care of cows and other farm animals.
its the coexistence and using them as both bait and a free energy tap!
heck the shroud could sneak some bits of itself onto a imperial ship and then create a "Skin" over it to feed on the warp energy. thus giving the shroud a way to hunt the warp!
also warp storms...the shroud needs to hunt down the warp storms and daemon infested planets in the materium. that would give them massive amounts of energy for free!
Shroud and the Orks would get along like an house on fire. Infinite Power Source and Infinite War.And the best part, it cleans the planet for human settlement. Because you know the Shroud won't leave any energy behind. Now, I wonder, what can the ShrouDrich do with WAAAAAGH energy?
Looking forward to Shroud Drich making a beeline for the Eye of Terror.

From all that I know of the Eldar, they'd actually be glad about that, if they could be assured that this is actually all that's going to happen, at the very least, which is an entire different can of worms. All they're doing is just trying to prevent as many Eldar as possible from getting tortured for all eternity.
