He became Hitler, In Space! as seen in the Ciaphas Cain novel, Cain's Last Stand.
Again, though, did Stalin really enjoy getting his hands dirty?Personally, I think that whoever Doombreed really is, he hasn't been born yet, but may well be born in a few millennia or so, give or take a couple of centuries either way.
Stalin was 'hands on', at least in the early days. He organised bank robberies to fund the Bolshevik coffers, and lead the defence of Tsargrad during the Russian Civil War (which was why it was renamed Stalingrad....by himself ).Also, does it seem like the Joker would be a follower of Nurgle? You know, a desire to destroy everything with a smile on your face?
Tact is for people who are too slow witted to be sarcastic.
If you can't make fun of something, it's probably not worth taking seriously.You have to love the smell of science in the morning. It smells of learning.... or perhaps a gas leak.
Thinking about it, I've liked the idea that Vlad could be both the origin of Sanguinius (part of it) geneseed AND Doombreed. Didn't they fight each other in Terra? I might be confused but it would throw in a tragical twist...
Emperor: Malcster! What's up bro? You look stressed.Malcador: My Lord! I've just heard a very disturbing rumour!Emperor: Dude, you need to learn to chillax.Malcador: My Lord, it is my understanding that you intend to combine genetic samples of Vladimir Teppes with your own to create one of the primarchs!Emperor: Yep. The 9th Primarch. What about it?Malcador: Vlad the Impaler?Emperor: That's right. So?Malcador: Dracula?Emperor: Duh. Malcador: The genes of the individual who later became Doombreed, the first Daemon Prince of Khorne?Emperor: Is there a problem?Malcador: Khorne - the Lord of Skulls. The Blood God!Emperor: Ummmmm . . . yeah. Are you going anywhere with this?Malcador: You seriously intend to use the genes of an individual who was so corrupted by a chaotic power as to become an actual Daemon Prince to create a being of similar power that you will then put in command of one of the greatest military forces the galaxy has ever known?Emperor: . . . Malcador: Don't you think that might be tempting fate?Emperor: . . . Malcador: . . . Emperor: I'm going to call him Sanguinius.
As Dogged says, Hitler was hardly the sort of person that would get his hands dirty.
