'Eavy Metal (White Dwarf 123, March 1990): "Personal heraldry for Space Marine officers and some variants of the traditional Marine colour schemes." This includes the original Death Eagle chapter in purple, white, and gold, and a rare sighting of a Grey Knight chapter member in regular Mk VI beaky armor. The "Night Lords Renegade Captain in Terminator Armour" is one of Jes Goodwin's "Traitor Terminators" from 1989.

What I love about the forgotten legions in 40k is that you can construct some wild theories and there is no one to stop you. Games workshop doesn't care but we do.
But my personal concern is.
The lore says unknown, but I am not satisfied with that response.
So today we will attemp to get inside Malcador's head and answer one of the Imperium's best kept secrets.
The facts we have so far
BUT WAIT.
The plot thickens because if we take it as fact that the geneseed was stolen from another legion we have to guess who is the father?
But fear not we have more evidence as to guess who might be.
1) All of the Grey Knights are sorcerers and pretty powerful ones at that.
2) One of the first hand picked, finger pointed, wholeheartedly selected Grey Knights was a Night Lord.
3) They are smug, walking talking warp magic nukes. They have that wap. Wild ass potential.
Also I am not joking. The Emperor saw that Night Lord and I guess was impressed by his human skin collection and agreed for him to join.
Malcador too. But at this point we all can agree Malcy Malc boy was a thief. Bad choices is his strongest suit.
SO.
👏🏻
Dad Theory No1
THE FATHER MIGHT BE. (empasis on might but it would be really funny if it was the truth)
Same same. But now a different picture. From a better angle.
The Crimson King is their dad.
Yes I am serious.
My limited research leads me to believe Magnus was the one... used for his geneseed by Malcador to create the loyalist version of nucler houdinis.
And you know what would make this theory even funnier if it was true.
Oh yes. Or oh no. Its the same at this point.
If the Grey Knights are indeed just a bunch of Thousand Sons but painted chrome and artificially orphaned.
That bastard Malcador.
He created 1000 sons and did not even have the decency to tell them who their dad was.
1000 men left out in the cold. With no place to call home.
1000 Sons -
1000 SONS PEOPLE THE GREY KNIGHTS ARE 1000 IN TOTAL. THATS THE FINAL CLUE WE NEEDED.
THEY ARE THE SONS OF MAGNUS BUT IN KNIGHT COSPLAY.
THIS IS CANON NOW.
MALCADOR STOLE MAGNUS SEED (THAT SOUNDS WRONG). AND MADE THE GREY KNIGHTS.
AND NOT ONLY THAT RUBRIC HAPPENED AND SINCE THOSE DUDES DON'T KNOW WHO THEIR DAD IS THEY PROBABLY WOKE UP ONE DAY +10 IN ALL THEIR STATS AND COULD NOT EXPLAIN WHY
Case closed
This is canon now
What will games workshop do?
Refute it?

Two more boys have been added to the collection.
Four in total. Theres a long way to go but we take it one mini at a time.
Also
Since I will be painting grey til the heat death of the universe I decided to experiment with light, reflections etc etc.
Why not.
It's not like I have 67 more to go and I need to do this in order to stay sane.
It's ok.
It's all acrylic paint, plastic fumes and delicate vibes.
