Can’t believe nobody has said why The Warp exists - or rather why it overlaps with and breaks into our reality.

Warhammer has Space Elves - the Eldar/Aeldari. Powerful psykers. Millennia ago they got so kinky and on so many drugs they fucked a hole in reality itself, a hole that promptly engulfed their homeworld and sent them on an endless exodus in their Worldships. They were such powerful psychics their sexcapades also manifested demons and the Chaos Gods from the formless energies of The Warp.

The ones that renounced their horny ways became the Eldar, the ones who didn’t became the Dark Eldar who are still really into leather and chains.

This isn’t super relevant to the story of the game, I just really like this bit of the lore. It reads like a joke: “Why’s the universe so jacked up? Fuckin’ space elves…”
