It’s the question we’ve all been asking – Will Fabius create Chaos Primaris? Let’s chat.

Oh boy, everyone got a good look at those teasers from Games Workshop right? Fabius Bile is coming and the Genetic Genesplicer has been hard at work.

That coat is pretty distinct. And the purple backpack is another giveaway. It’s Fabius Bile with a new model (thank the Emperor!)

I can’t wait to see how GW redesigns this one!

While this is all exciting news what really stuck out was his lil’buddy:

Gee, I wonder what gland he could be removing? The Progenoid perhaps?

via Lexicanum

There are two of these glands, one situated in the neck and the other within the chest cavity. These glands are vitally important and represent the future of the Chapter, as the only way new gene-seed can be produced is by reproducing it within the bodies of the Marines themselves. This is the implant’s only purpose. The glands absorb genetic material from the other implanted organs. When they have matured, each gland will have developed a single gene-seed corresponding to each of the zygotes which have been implanted into the Marine.

Well it sure looks like he’s pulling it from the neck. And we also have a look at one via the Primaris Apothecary:

Note – that is the Primaris Apothecary.

We all know that Fabius has been hard at work messing with the Genetics of the Space Marines. For what cause? Well, that’s yet to be determined – but we might be finding out relatively soon. One of the biggest clues was in the Chaos Space Marine book:

He’s been capturing Primaris Space Marines and harvesting their genetic goodies. His goal has always been to elevate mankind (genetically). These new Primaris Marines could be the missing piece he’s been needing to complete his foul work.

We know he’s getting a new model. We know he’s been harvesting Primaris Parts. And we know he’s been experimenting. Are Chaos Primaris on the way? Perhaps. Or are we about to get something even more chaosifed than Primaris Marines with Spikes?

What do you think? Will Fabius Bile be the Herald of a new Chaos Primaris wave? Or will have something even more sinister on the way?
