So at best they were genetically engineered beings which had aspects of their makeup influenced by the Emperor, much like you're not a perfect clone of your parents and can potentially be significantly larger or smaller than them, especially once environmental factors come into play. The Primarchs were created by the Emperor with the aid of forbidden sciences and arcane lore derived from the Warp There was a process by which the emperor created them, but it involved more than just a syringe full of Emperor Juice(tm), they added organs, they rebuilt musculature, etc. Occam's Razor and all that.Īs for why the Astartes were taking from his genes but were huge, remember that they weren't precisely clones. ![]() We can infer from those canonical assertions and lack of contrary assertions that he simply wasn't outside the normal human range of size.
