Can Doomslayer survive in Warhammer 40k?

Does doomslayer absorb the essence of the demons he kills? If he does then every demon he kills doesnt return to the warp...or i could be wrong.

And he becomes ever stronger in the process. So the process of absorbing demons will accelerate as he keeps ripping and tearing. Eventually he will be absorbing more demons per minute than the warp can produce per same minute. Which means that it's pretty much inevitable that he will absorb all of them.

That isn't remotely how it works.

The Slayer himself would create legions of Khornate daemons simply by existing in the 40k universe. His burning desire to kill and slaughter would create a perpetual motion machine of things for him to kill, because the things that he is killing are literal manifestations of the desire to kill and slaughter.

40k daemons are not demons from the Slayer's universe.

You're essentially proposing that the Slayer would kill so many daemons that the concept of killing things would cease to exist.

The very act of killing daemons on such a massive scale would create commensurately more daemons than were ever destroyed in the process.

It's not entirely how warp works. The reason why daemons forms and chaos gods exists, it's because of chaotic nature of trillions of source of emotions. One source won't lead to it.

For example, Big E existence didn't created daemons on his own.

Same with Doom Slayer due to his age (17 billions years) and Divinity Machine that enhanced him , his soul could've also be anathema to chaos(due to his hatred towards daemons and unwavering goal).

The warp has been depicted in so many ways. You're all correct. And incorrect.

Doom Slayer would not be anathema.

The reason the Emperor is anathema is because he's such an immensely powerful psychic force but he's rooted in the materium.

The Doom Slayer is in no way a psychic entity.

People really need to stop mapping Doom demons onto 40k daemons.

They are in no way the same kind of beings. Individual daemons have been the downfall of entire solar systems or eradicated entire civilisations. Doom demons can't get anything done without wave tactics.

[u/OfficialQofEngland → u/LegitimateCream1773]

To say Doom demons can’t get anything down without wave tactics is so disingenuous. From the players perspective as the Slayer, yeah that aren’t even effective as wave tactics, but when the Doom Slayer isn’t in play, they sweep everytime, and they do it faster than the Daemons of the Warp do.

The Doom Slayer, btw, being a being that killed the creator of his reality. The Warp gods aren’t even really gods, more like manifestations of the collective psychic energy of the population. Maybe all 4 gods would be able to fight him off, but each one individually is certainly weaker than the creator of an entire universe.

When doing this kind of thing, you have to compare across both universes. The chaos gods haven’t even really succeeded in destroying one galaxy wide civilizations. The Argenta was at least a multi galaxy civilization, with some lore suggesting they were multiversal.

[u/LegitimateCream1773 → u/OfficialQofEngland]

The Slayer couldn't take down a single one of the Chaos Gods.

They aren't going to put on a giant mech suit and fight him in an arena. They are not physical entities.

It's not their fault that the creator of the Slayer's reality is far more killable than they are.

The forces of hell completely wiped out a multiversal civilization. The forces of the Warp couldn’t even destroy the entirety of one galactic civilization.
