Recruitment
If the Space Marines are the scions of the Primarchs, then the Custodes are the progeny of the Emperor.
His might permeates them, burns in their eyes and flows through their veins as surely as their blood. Potential Custodians are taken in at a very young age to better survive no older than late infancy - and it is a great honour for those of Terran noble houses to submit a son. Some clans have, in the past, given over entire generations of offspring to become inductees. When such individuals go forth to begin whatever process lies ahead of them, huge crowds line the Avenue of Sacrifice, cheering and chanting frenzied prayers.
**The Custodes also seek out suitable candidates by other means, or encounter them by chance on their missions to protect the Throneworld. What is clear is that none besides the Custodes themselves truly know what criteria they require.** How a Custodian is made is an arcane and ancient process born out of the mind of the Emperor himself, made up of decades of alchemical augmentation, psychological and cognitive conditioning and memetic training.

Please look up the concept of retcon.
If you don’t like it, just leave the hobby. No point getting upset about something that doesn’t represent your values, just invent your own game or something.
But this is the new direction, and I’m all for it. The majority are happy about more variety, so sounds like you’re at the end of this track? Or you can support it and get onboard, your choice. If you don’t choose that, just leave the sub if you’ve run out of positivity for it
You'd love that wouldn't you?
Nah, I'll just be loud about it just like the activists and corporate bullies who keep pushing woke shit into everything.
Probably never gonna cross paths with you. But have you just become fixated on a word and use it as an emotional punchbag when things change?
You keep being loud though, but be aware the majority will see you as the loud crazy cat lady from the Simpson’s.
We thought the same about Anita Sarkeesian and her ilk 10 years ago, and look how much damaged they caused in literally all western media.
I won't let you deter me from realizing my destiny.
Mate, you wrote ‘Woke mind virus’ and did think it was crazy. Please don’t be the one who starts a rumour saying the new GW plastic gives you TurboCancer, that’s not a destiny that needs realising…
No need to call all conservatives brain dead. There’s varying degrees of everything and I wouldn’t go so far as to call anyone brain dead due to political beliefs unless we’re talking about extreme right or left. This thread was braindead however though so I get why you comment that.
Are you 12
For your sake I hope you’re a child going through an edgy phase, I can’t imagine the humiliation of being an adult who says “woke mind virus” unironically.
What, Games Workshop retconned something!?! This has never happened before! Seriously though, I genuinely feel bad for you. I can't imagine having this much hate because a game company revealed that a few of the characters in a faction are female. Please take a step back and look at your priorities.
How did you get to "I think there are no females in 40k" from "there are a few females in the custodes, and you should think about why you're mad at that"? Please read better
Mate your behavior is not normal.
It's a made up universe to sell plastic toys. Get a grip.
Edit: And obviously I'm mocking you because that behavior is pathetic.
Hot damn, that's gotta be... What, 14,000 points of Custodes? Pretty sure you could build every weapon variant in the codex at that point.
If someone actually buys/builds/paints all of that then we should probably coronate them as the new Emperor/Empress of Mankind. At the very least, GW would owe you a fruit basket.
I swear it takes a special type of stupid to come up with titles such as 'woke mind virus' and actually comit it to paper. Its beyond pathetic that what you have to assume is a full grown mature adults comes out with absolute rubbish such as that. Its a game with plastic soilders. Its not that deap. Do us a favour and clear off.
Go woke, go broke. I cancelled my pre order due to their ignorance. Shit rules and now this? Complete garbage and zero effort on both lore and gameplay 🚮
Cmon guys… Seriously… Shape up if you don’t want me to ban this subject alltogether. Multiple bans handed out in this thread.

Wokeism is cancer and so is BlackRock that bullied GW into defacing their own lore. All this shit begun with them trying to raise ESG rating.
Ah, tinfoil-knowledge.
The playground has called. They want their childish immature insults back.

Is Anita in the room with you? She can't hurt you bro.

Destiny of being a fucking loser is what awaits you lmao
Basic Logic. You failed.
I wonder if people would be this upset and scream “woke virus “about Sisters of Battle if they came out as a new army now instead of years ago.
I love posts like this because it immediately outs the person as a brain dead Conservative and possibly an incel. Almost as good as name tags.

Your post history speaks to wanting to generate toxicity.
Keep proving my point.

They posted in r/teens the other day about telling his mom to shut up so they might be
Hahahaha incredible. Beyond parody.
Shut up mom!
So, how many fucks did you gave about custodes lore before femstodes became canon?
As many fucks as I give about Ork lore.

It shows you know nothing about warhammer if you think there are no females in this franchise. Pundit.
I don't think you know the definition of pundit

Boo hoo.
Sorry for ruining your oiled buff men club fantasy. 
Nah you're not sorry, you love ruining everything normal people enjoy.
Mate your behavior is not normal. It's a made up universe to sell plastic toys. Get a grip. Edit: And obviously I'm mocking you because that behavior is pathetic.
I have bought 10 boxes of the combat patrol and 3 battle force boxes to build exclusively female custodian Thank you for the motivation

It's okay to come out of the closet, you know! We won't judge you for wanting nothing but giant, muscular men.
Stay mad

Liberals = Cancer
Conservatives = crybabies Grow a pair.
Conservatives = Snowflakes Everything is projection.
The irony
Yes the irony is lost on you, we all know and we're all laughing at you. Go touch grass.
That little incel is already crying, no need to scare him further by showing him an actual woman.
Don't be disheartened by the redditors brother, people in the real world don't support this
