Are Gork and Mork the Same in AOS and 40K?

-

I’m curious about Gork and Mork in the context of both Age of Sigmar (AOS) and Warhammer 40,000 (40K). We’ve seen that the four gods of chaos are consistent across both universes, and that the Aeldari gods are different entities. So, does this mean Gork and Mork are the same gods in both settings, similar to the chaos gods? I came across some lore suggesting that Gorkamorka in AOS acts like an elemental god, similar to the chaos gods. So what’s the deal with Gork and Mork?

Actually, I don’t think they’re the same. AOS has its own unique lore and gods, similar to how Slaanesh in AOS has a different backstory than in 40K. Despite sharing names, their narratives can diverge significantly. It gets complicated since each setting has its distinct interpretations.

Yeah, I’ve noticed that too! There are definitely variations in the backgrounds of the daemons and gods across the different settings. It’s like they’re the same names, but with totally different stories!

Not quite, actually. Just like Khaine differs in 40K and Fantasy, Gork and Mork have their own unique histories tied to their respective settings. Each has different origins, even if they seem similar at a glance. The daemons and their backstories also vary significantly between the two.

From what I understand, the warp is essentially consistent across both universes but interpreted through different lenses. The warp beings, including Gork and Mork, might be the same at their core, but the lore changes based on the setting. So in my view, yes, they’re the same but depicted differently due to the unique world each time.

From what I’ve gathered, Gork and Mork are essentially the same entities in both AOS and 40K. They merged at some point, leading to the creation of Gorkamorka, but their roles remain intact. One’s all about being cunningly brutal while the other is brutally cunning. That’s pretty much the gist of it!
