Have you ever loved something or someone and yet known that it was without a doubt bad for you? I think the hedonites and Slaanesh in general are appealing because they speak to this common and very human shared experience. I do not like them as individuals, but I can sympathize, because they represent a path any of us could have taken if we had indulged in those things we loved that would have destroyed us. They are a caricature of that act of succumbing to that temptation and being consumed for it. Slaanesh is arguably the most relatable chaos God. However once chaos embraces them and they devolve into the lovecraftian blood and murder madness I would genuinely hope none of us could relate to any of them anymore. At that point they're just parody cartoon characters like Sigvald who are more like campy saturday morning cartoon villains than people. But then again that could easily be said of any of the insane chaos devotees of any god. Hedonites could be made relatable if you made a relatable fall from grace story. It's just unfortunately doing that well would be difficult without skirting along uncomfortable topics like codependent relationships, drug abuse, addiction, and so on. Slaanesh isn't hard for them to write books for just because of the sex and boobies thing. By its very nature that kind of narrative would have to confront some extremely dark topics. I suppose you could have a good character so devoted to achieving a good end to perfection that his drive eventually makes all his loved ones leave him, taking him down a dark path. Even then if you whitewashed it completely, it'd still be a very bleak tale.

I've lurked this forum for years, but must break my self-imposed lurking to ask: WHAT is that gold formula? It is beautiful. I love the scheme you have here. I feel like you incorporated a lot of themes relating to pale blue starlight in the snow, it's wonderful. You single-handedly got me interested in this model range.
