* BlessedWithSuck: The Tarrasque's form gives the Emperor immense strength and invulnerability, but it also scares the crap out of people who aren't used to seeing him, and the furor over its summoning and the Emperor's subsequent disappearance in the first place causes fits both on Terra and in other Imperial offices. He also can't control the volume of his voice; thus, his dialogue is written in all-caps.

At the dawn of the 42nd millennium, the Emperor is faced with two situations that could prove disastrous to the already-weakened Imperium. Forced to take extreme measures, he summons a Khornate daemon (in the form of a Tarrasque[[note]]an immensely powerful and nigh-unkillable monster from ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons''[[/note]]) to the Golden Throne and possesses it, finally freeing him from the [[AndIMustScream torment he's been locked in for the last 10,000 years]]. Now able to finally act, he proceeds to turn the 40K universe on its ear in many different ways.

!!This work provides examples of the following:

* AFateWorseThanDeath:
** What Slaanesh has planned for [[spoiler:Eldrad Ulthran]]...doesn't happen, though.
** [[spoiler:Jaghatai Khan]] has been trapped in a chronovortex for millennia.
** A [[spoiler:Tau Ethereal]] is launched out an airlock straight into the Warp.
* BackFromTheDead:
** All of [[spoiler:the loyal Primarchs]] who are dead or out of commission in canon!40K are brought back in various ways.
** [[spoiler:Eldrad]], thanks to the Emperasque.
* BashBrothers: [[spoiler:The Primarchs]], naturally.
* BigDamnHeroes: The Emperasque's rescue of [[spoiler:Isha from Nurgle]] and [[spoiler:Eldrad Ulthran from the clutches of Slaanesh]].
* BlessedWithSuck: The Tarrasque's form gives the Emperor immense strength and invulnerability, but it also scares the crap out of people who aren't used to seeing him, and the furor over its summoning and the Emperor's subsequent disappearance in the first place causes fits both on Terra and in other Imperial offices. He also can't control the volume of his voice; thus, his dialogue is written in all-caps.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Logan Grimnir's reaction to the TheReasonYouSuckSpeech below. It causes [[spoiler:Leman Russ]] to collapse into hysterical laughter.
* {{Crossover}}: Merging 40K with D&D in the form of the Emperasque. The story also incorporates several pieces of /tg/ {{fanon}}, including the relationship between [[VideoGame/Warhammer40000DawnOfWar Taldeer]] and LIVII from ''Love Can Bloom'', their [[HalfHumanHybrid daughter]] Lofn, a reference to the Pretty Marines, and the Blood Ravens' kleptomania.
* CurbStompBattle: Pretty much any fight the Emperasque gets personally involved in.
* DamselInDistress: Isha, the Eldar fertility goddess, prisoner of Nurgle and test subject for his plagues since shortly after the Fall of the Eldar.
* EyeScream: [[spoiler:Eldrad]] psychically severed his own optic nerves to keep from having to experience that part of Slaanesh's tortures.
* FantasticRacism: Still in effect, but being worked on more or less; see TeethClenchedTeamwork below.
* PatrickStewartSpeech: [[spoiler:LIVII]]'s calm retort to the Emperasque's xenophobic comments about the Eldar and their general untrustworthiness.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: [[spoiler:Bjorn the Fell-Handed]]'s tirade about the Space Wolves.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: The [[spoiler:Craftworld Eldar and Imperials]] aren't exactly happy to be working with each other, but each side realizes that their conflicts have to be shelved so they can concentrate on their mutual foes. It doesn't help that the Emperasque irritates Isha constantly with his brusque mannerisms.
* YouHaveFailedMe: The Emperor severely dresses down the Chapter Master of the Blood Ravens for their suspicious actions.
