Info

THANATOS, DEMON PRINCE OF THE UNDEAD, is one of the most powerful demons in the Abyss—powerful enough to threaten gods. He commands legions of followers, living and dead, and cults dedicated to him are terrifyingly widespread in the natural world.

Thanatos finds amusement in the suffering and anguish of the living and satisfaction only when he drinks their blood. Most living things enrage him by their mere presence, and Thanatos permits only Undead to be near him; even his demon servitors are Undead. He has destroyed hundreds of mighty heroes and laid waste to countless kingdoms.

Thanatos is a foul and corpulent humanoid creature who often appears as a human mortal man slightly taller then natural but has pale ash colored skin, with a red mark upon his chest, called the mark of the damned and a human head with long white hair. His great black wings, when summoned, stir up a reeking cloud of diseased air. He seems somewhere between life and undeath—his pale, soreridden body suggests diseased life, but his head and glowing red eyes suggest Undeath. Thick, black iron are in constant motion around him. Thanatos carries a heavy scythe tipped with an enormous blade.

This Scythe is known as the Staff of Thanatos, this weapon transforms those it slays into Undead horrors. Its staff is smooth obsidian studded with blood rubies, it's blade a forged from the depths of the abyssal flames. Dead creatures respond to the presence of Thanatos, even without his command. Skeletal arms claw up from the ground where he walks and grab at the feet of his foes. Spirits fill the air with a ghostly chorus of piteous.

Natural abilities

Aura of Death
Foes who stand within 10 feet of Thanatos feel the horrible taint of death as if it was a tangible force. This aura drains energy as a passive ability over time.

The Dead Rise

All corpses within 50 feet of Thanatos will eventually raise to unlife. Those killed will raise two post/rounds after they fell. Dead already buried will raise after one round/post while within this aura. Those dead affected in this aura will launch out skeletal hands to impude the movements of his enemies, spirits will also flew around his from to make flying difficult to most.

Touch of Death

At will whatever Thanatos touch's will have their life force drained at a considerably fast rate. If he manages to grapple an opponent for long enough it can eventually kill them. Works only on those of the living.

Necrotic Burst

Thanatos is able to send out a burst of necrotic energy like a wave around him extending to 20 feet. With an extra charge he is able to extend this to 40 feet, another charge 80 feet and so forth. Each extra charge of power more potent then before. This burst heals Undead under his command.

Master of Undeath

At the start of Thanatos next post, any creature killed by the Staff Of Thanatos that is still dead rises as a Dread Wraith under Thanatos's command.

Living chains

The black iron chains that swirl constantly around his form are also able to be used in attack as well as defense. He is able to manipulate them at his own free will, they are also near indestructible and empowered, just like his scythe, with ghost touch abilities giving them the power to harm incorporeal beings. He can also momentarily make them in turn incorporeal.

Staff of Thanatos

The Staff of Thanatos acts as both a weapon and a tool for within the very weapon lies Thanatos's own soul making his blade a soul weapon. A soul weapon is similar to a lich’s phylactery in that Thanatos's soul resides there instead of in his body. But in most other ways, the soul weapon is the opposite of a phylactery. For a lich its phylactery is a weakness that allows its permanent destruction, but the soul weapon is Thanatos's greatest strength. He literally wields his soul as a weapon. The soul weapon's strikes burn with death, and at the his command it can become immaterial, passing through armor and shields to strike at its foes' unprotected flesh. This can only be done once per charge stored in the blade. He can chose when to expand the charge when he which, but such charges can only be used for his weapon in this way or his chains.

True Form

With this power Thanatos is able to take the form of a mighty dragon of Undeath. In this from he gain potent abilities which are all found in Draconian powers section. In this Dracolich form he is up to 16' (4.9m) tall with a wingspan of 80' (24.4m). He then weighs up to 159,000lbs (72,121kg). This requires three charges in order to transform.


Adapted skills

Thanatos is a very powerful being. He is capable of manipulating dead bodies and use them as mediums. In fights he uses a long curved blade, which he uses with great proficiency for powerful combos. He can reveal a pair of large wings to power his already deadly combos with aerial combat.

Not enough with that, he can transform into a large beast,A Dracolich, that possess a very hard bone structure and is also capable of using a blast of negative energy from his mouth, which with enough charge becomes larger and more powerful as the mere reflection of this attack, is strong enough to knock back Thanatos temporarily. As a Demon Lord Thanatos is immortal(though can still be killed), possessing super strength, flight (due to wings), shapeshifting (true form), and speed.

In his Dracolich form his power's are almost doubled and gain great vitality.


Draconian Powers

Mesmerizing Glare

When this power is activated any who stare into his eyes can become overcome with fear to the point of becoming nearly paralyzed by it. At this point staring into his eyes for to long is risky for most beings. This power only works up to 10 feet.


Frightful Presence

Those within 30 feet of Thanatos in his beast form he assaulted upon by a powerful wave of fear. powerful enough to make most mortal men quack in fright and flee on sight.

Breath Weapon

Thanatos breathes out a coruscating blast of necrotic energy. This revolting gases blast rotten's all living beings it comes into contact with. If inhaled can cause horrible pain and sickness. Death would soon follow. Like an acid it can eventually eat through most material.

Negativity beam

Focusing as much negtive energy as possaible into his mouth. depending on how long he charges this attack it can be very devastating. It is said with just 2 charges he can wipe out an army, with 4 a small moon, 6 charges is said to be able to destroy half a planet easily.

Runescribed Retaliation

In this form dozens of runes can be seen all over his dragon form. When activated projectile attacks return to were they were fired from at half power. Even magical projectile attacks are not immune to this defense.

Black Fire

These dark unnatural flames eat away at the life force of anything they burn. As the fires spread and burn any life force they touch, s uch as vegetation, is absorb into the flames as it burns away. When he wish's he can inhale the flames again to restore his energies when needed.

Before Cybernetics

After



Real name: Austin Rock

Code name: Ghost

Hair: none

Eye: Dark brown

Height: 6'3"

Build: muscular

RANK: Sgt. Major of the Marine Corps (SgtMajMC)

Personality: Austin is utterly stoic and disciplined. He is usually quite and calm with complete control of himself, and will only speak if he has something important to say or add.

History: Born in war torn Africa, He was a child soldier without a documented past, absent from the databases of the NSA, CIA and FBI. He proved to be a superior soldier, rising to become captain of the Small Boy Unit at ten.

Little else is known of his past before becoming refugee and coming to the U.S.A., But while at a rehab center, he was taken by the CIA and used as a test subject for the "Perfect Soldier Project" and Given intense Gene therapy. The project turned the boy into a more efficient killer, capable of killing his targets without remorse, earning him the nick name "Rock the Ripper" however, it was at a cost.

When he was not fighting, he was kept in a coffin-shaped sensory deprivation water tank which would reset his memories, and suppress his emotions. Also, this intense treatment seemed to enhance his reflexes allowing him to deflect bullets and become incredibly agile. Because Rock was one of the few surviving test subject of the project, He became the modal for the perfect solider program.

Military history: As a teenager, Austin became a member of the Ghost hunter battalion (a group created to hunt down soldier's who had gone AWOL, both of the Shifter kind and the Cyborg kind) when it was under the leadership of Casey Ryback during the ill fated San Hieronymo Takeover. He was the only active field agent of The ghost hunter battalion to achieve the codename "Ghost," The Ghost Hunter battalion's highest commemoration, and was decorated five times. Ghost was Casey Ryback's war buddy and best friend after Operation Intrude N313. Later In the military his admirable skills were at also recognized by the U.S. Army's Task Force XXI.


Equipment

High Frequency Blade

Also called HF swords, a weapon that can use electric signals in the megahertz to gigahertz frequency range to create high frequencies. Channeling high frequency energy through a sword raises its temperature, thereby increasing its cutting ability.

When in full (Hellfire) battle suit


Battle Suite

Official Name: NR-"Hellfire" V10
Common Name: Doom bringer,
Weight: 130Ib

Technology

The NR Version 10 is the first major upgrade of the system and introduced two revolutionary technologies for battlefield purposes: Improved energy shielding, providing the user added protection against even plasma weapons, and with kinetic shielding thus making it is very effective at absorbing damage from projectile weaponry. Among these upgrades came the ability to link a Solider and a AI together to provide the soldier instant intel in the field, along with other functions. In addition to major changes from the Version 8 and 9, hundreds of other technical improvements are incorporated into the Mark V: for example, the fusion packs used to power the suits are half again the size of their predecessors. This battle suit is now Special Military wear for elite special units, created with electronic weaving technology using optical fibers. It clings tightly to the wearers body, providing protection and boosting strength. This model also has a variety of sensors, shielding the body from toxins, and interface with nanomachines, among many other features. Also has Electronic camouflage technology that uses optical refraction to make the wearer blend into the surrounding environment by bending away light.

Material

The outer shell of the Hellfire armor is comprised of a fairly thick titanium alloy. This plating covers the chest, arms, hip, legs, calves, feet and hands. This alloy is very resilient, can take significant punishment, and is nearly impervious to small arms fire. While enough shots from armor piercing rounds will breach the outer shell, the suit can take a few glancing blows from them without compromising the armor. The outer shell of the all Hellfire suits is covered with a refractive coating to help disperse the heat experienced from energy weapons. However one or two direct hits from any Plasma weapon at close range will compromise the armor plating.

The battlesuit is constructed in overlapping layers. It is a sealed system, capable of extravehicular activity or operations in toxic atmosphere. It is hardened against EMP and radiation, and has filters that are completely effective at removing toxins and bacteria from local atmosphere.
The armor's outer shell is composed of a multilayer alloy of remarkable strength and has been augmented with a refractive coating capable of dispersing a limited amount of energy weapon strikes. Each human being has a molecular fiber network called the nervous system within their brain. An upgrade to the standard Neural Interface is issued to all high ranking officers; another modified version of the neural lace is issued to all High ranked elite marines. This network translates electrochemical signals to digital code and routes them through an interface connection at the rear of the skull. Through this interface, the user's thoughts command the armor's movement and weapons; and input from the on board sensors comes directly to the user's mind. The synthesis of machine and mind is so fast that it is almost impossible to chart reaction time. Version ten was created and based of the strengths of Dreadnought armor combining it with the lightness and maneuverability of lighter versions.

Mechanical Augmentation

Mechanical augmentation (technically, biomechatronical augmentation) involves the use of cybernetics in order to improve or replace certain human body parts. It is the progression from basic limb prosthetics with the distinguishing feature being that the machinery and robotics interface directly with the central nervous system as opposed to the ends of peripheral nerves. It was the first method of augmentation which allowed people to assume superhuman abilities, albeit not without limitations, the most salient downsides being the individuals suffering from extreme physical and mental pain, and reliance on the anti-rejection drug Neuropozyne and painkillers all their life. With research beginning as early as the 2000s, mechanical augmentations became widespread during the 2020s. It was the predecessor to physiopharmaceutical augmentation and the much more advanced nanotechnological augmentation.

Augmentation

At one point in his long career, Austin sustained critical injuries, however only to his head, abdomen and left arm, but David Sarif took advantage of Austins genetic condition, and a clause in his employment contract, to augment Austin to an extent which would have been impossible for any other individual. Austin received every augmentation that Sarif Industries could produce. The result was, at that time, probably the single most extensive cybernetic modification that had ever been performed. However, the extent of Austins injuries meant that most of the augmentations had to be left initially inactive. Austin was sent home to recuperate, but subsequently struggled to come to terms with his body's fusion with machines - and ended up smashing his bathroom mirror the first time he saw himself in it.

Due to being subject to such augmentations, he has acquired what can only be described as super-human capabilities. All of Austin Rock's limbs have been completely replaced: his arms include a nanoceramic blade which can be released at either the wrist or elbow for close quarters combat, a function that enables him to punch through walls by opening a section of his forearm, and the ability to dislocate his fingers. Other augmentations include firing stability, lifting heavy weights, and accuracy while running.

Austin's legs are also mechanical from just above the knee down. His torso appears to be biological, but is often covered in his hellfire battle suit, along with bolt ports from the bar placed within his chest to support said augments. Underneath he has a variety of cardiovascular and muscular augmentations, such as an internal rebreather, a health system, and an internal battery.

Austin's head has a plethora of augmentations, most noticeably his variety of hacking tools and C.A.S.I.E. Module (allowing him to see personality information of those he converses with), which appears to be connected to a hexagonal shape on the left side of his forehead. He also has an infolink and cochlear implant within his ear cavity. Jensen's eyes contain a retinal prothesis. displaying various information about the environment. Additionally, he has an implant which allows him to cover his eyes in sunglass lenses stored within the implant.

Weapons:

Vampiric Dagger:
Often referred to as a "Jeweled Dagger" in various circles, this emerald-studded dagger is Batu's signature weapon, and is the most recognized and feared weapon in the lands. The dagger is his primary right-hand weapon, and its mechanism is resilient and efficient for both stealthy assassinations and open melee combat. This, combined with its unique, dense metal, makes it perfect for defensive maneuvers. With a single strike and as long as the blade remains embedded in the target, the magical weapon could suck the life force of the victim and use it to heal the wielder. The blade can also emanate a white, fiery light.

In battle, Batu's favorite wielding technique with this dagger is to wield it as a main-gauche in his left hand with his sword or saber in his right. His common interrogation technique is to force the victim's palm open and use the dagger to make a single blood-drawing tear on it, thus starting the life-draining magic. He usually doesn't have to wait long before the victim yields and pleads for him to stop. When Batu is seriously hurt and under pursuit, he would commonly use the dagger to heal himself at the expense of a poor beggar or drunkard who happens to pass by.

>>>>>>> Backstory:

Batu had quit an unfortunate childhood, however it did not began that way. He grew up in the city of Calis with his parents. Life was good for the young boy, who showed a fascination in almost every thing when he was but a child, which grew with age. He was a happy boy, his uncle would visit him often and tell him story’s of his grand adventures. Both his parents were from the deserts of Talerium were they once lived with the clan of Curu’Alak. Batu never know however that in their youth that both his parents were assassin’s, as most in Curu’Alak were. But when Laurie, Batu’s mother, become pregnant, she and her husband Huss-kale decided that they did not want there son to grow in the same hostile environment as they had and moved to Calis to rise their new family. However this move greatly upset the Clan of Curu’Alak who raised all there son and daughters in the ways of the shadow sands. Ub-ha-seed, Huss-kale’s brother spoken in their favor, and as able to make an argument with the High master’s of Curu’Alak. If the parents agreed to send the boy back when he was of age to decide himself, then they would allow them to leave to Calis, they also had to promise to never reveal any of the ancient arts they had learned in the clan to any one for any reason. Laurie and Huss-Kale agreed, thus they traveled to Calis were they lived in practical ease after their baby boy, Batu, was born. And they lived a happy life, but as the elder’s of Curu’Alak often saw, “nothing can last forever”.

So it happened on Batu’s sixth birthday tragedy struck, and both his parents were killed in a devastating fire. He to was almost lost, but was able to survive under the corpses of his parents which created a disgusting yet effective shield from the unrelenting heat, a true miracle. The fire burned down most of the block, and to this day no one knows for sure how it was started. As one can imagine the kind of effect this kind of event would have on a child. And thought he had survived the vicious fire he was likely scared for like, if not physically but mentally. Since that day Batu and paranoia of fire, perhaps one could chalk it up to childhood trauma, but Batu always seemed to know when to duck and roll, and people always had an impossible time trying to hit him because of this unnatural evasion ability. After the fire Batu became an orphan for the next three years. He had to beg, find, scavenge, or often steal his food just to survive. Survival became his driving instinct, and by the age of 10, he was already something of a leader among the other city urchins. Some of the other orphaned or abandoned bustard children even the older ones, looked up to him. Batu gifted with a tactical and curious mind, always planed their little raids on merchant stands. Usually one of the younger ones often the girls, would distract the merchant often asking for food or even a small crumb, then well the merchant was distracted, the other’s would then grab what ever they could as quickly as possible and run. Batu always made sure every one had their fair shear. Soon however the merchants wised up to their tricks, once they were caught the other escaped but Batu was caught and beaten badly by the angry merchants. Who after they had bent their frustration on him sold him to a sold him to a group pedophilic merchants who were, if anything, worse than the merchants before. This betrayal was enough to put a block on Batu’s emotions, making the man hide from the world by a sheer mental wall of rage and cynicism. who soon escaped them however and continued to survive alone.

It was four years now after the fire that Batu met Zirena khan, when she was but a young girl. Batu had spotted her from afar and did not know it then that they were of the same kin, intrigued he followed her. Until one day see noticed him watching her from afar, but instead of being frightened, she beckoned him over. Which was the start of a long lasting friendship, Batu’s first “real” fiend one may say.He helped mend the scar that had formed after the loss of both his parents, and for a time he could forget his terrible past. Soon however Zirena became of age, nearly 15, and returned back to Hidale. Batu was certain that he would be alone now, again as he had been before. But as it happened as he was staring at a stand of beard his mouth almost watering, Ub-ha-seed Batu’s uncle was on a contract mission from his clan in Calis. He spotted Batu but could hardly believe his eyes. He had thought like every one else that the boy had perished in the flame’s which was why Ub-ha-seed had not sought after him. When the met and embraced for the first time in almost 8 years, after Ub-ha-seed took him in and took care of him for the week he was staying in Calis. In that one week Batu told his uncle of all the things that had happened to him since the accident. His uncle was amazed by how well Batu had taken care of him self showing a true trait for survival. Eventually Ub-ha-seed left back to Talerium, with Batu by his side. Ub-ha-seed had told him little about his clan, a clan that Batu was apart of being a relative to his uncle, one that he soon learned that both his parents had been apart of. The realization of finding that he had a home after all and a family as well was to much for Batu. But soon he would see for him self. In Chocxal, he was taken in by the Curu'Alak guild ruled by the 13 masters, known as the Pashas. Ub-ha-seed taught young Batu the tricks of the trade, teaching him the basics of fighting, and helping him master stealth. As Batu practiced, he flourished, becoming the most efficient and deadly assassin in Chocxal and perhaps all of Taluriem. He was hired by many Pashas, his most recent employer though was Zirena Khan.Batu was glad to hear from her and took the mission with support form his uncle set sail for Diliwight. Before leaving Ub-ha-seed told Batu it was time for him to face the Dream Jinn after besting the desert spirit in a battle of wits it gifted Batu two beautiful scimitars.


>>>>>>> Notes:

Adamantine
This ultrahard metal adds to the quality of a weapon or suit of armor. Weapons fashioned from adamantine have a natural ability to bypass hardness when sundering weapons or attacking objects. They are all but near indestructible and never rust.

>>>>>>> Description: Nihil is small, lithe, and fairly obviously not a normal human; if she were, she might look to be about 23 years old. Her skin is an unearthly shade of white, and her eyes are a solid pale blue. Her hair is long, black, and lustrous; it frames a harsh and unforgiving face. She dresses in simple shoulder cloak, a light leather top and dress and carries a long, thin sword at her side. Nihil moves like someone who not only knows how to fight, but knows how to see the entire battlefield as well: there's a confidence in her step, but also a wariness. With that said, she tries to stand out as little as possible, sticking to shadows and corners when she can. The undead have more than enough enemies in the land of the living.

Weapons:

Dagger of Falling Ash: This jagged, smoky dagger emits a trail of hot ash behind its wicked blade whenever it is wielded. The Dagger of Falling Ash upon contact with will burn flesh and it's heat allow it to easily cut through most armor, unless the wound is healed by magic or cleaned, a horrid black scar will be there for the rest of the individual's life. The blade can also be used to light normal fires, but cannot harm the wielder. The original Dagger of Falling Ash was created by mixing the ashes of a dead ash rat to the magical mix, though there may be other ways of creating this dagger. This dagger also allows the wielder to drain the life force of this it stabs, thus healing the wielder. The dagger is roughly 16 inches long.

Dawn: This sleek, spiny dagger has an appearance wreathed in gloom, drinking in ambient light while reflecting but little. A latticework of vile-natured runes cover its obsidian lemmet, smoldering with almost tangible shadow. These evil weapons draw their potency from the Shadow Weave, a corrupting font of magic. Its pommel is wrapped in a cured black leather, and bears the emblem of the Unseated, an elite fraction that associates in deepest secret with the shadow syndicates of Thultanthar. The Unseated are agents and assassins of great skill and renown, who move betwixt cities and towns like shadows - unseen - and wear secrecy and anonymity like a cloak against law and order. Each member of the Unseated carries two weapons, nicknamed 'dusk' and 'dawn'. These two weapons are twinned in the darkness of night, dawn in the left hand and dusk in the right, and exemplify their evil nature. Between dusk and dawn are these weapons at their strongest, and lend their sinister power to many iniquitous causes; theft, fraudulence, conspiracy and murder. Outside and during daytime, dawn is a regular masterwork dagger, but at night or in places where the light of the sun does not reach, its wicked nature is fully realized and the blade awakens. In these places, dusk functions as a powerful weapon. It is roughly 20 inches long.

Dusk: This large, broad and curved dirk has an appearance wreathed in gloom, drinking in ambient light while reflecting but little. A latticework of vile-natured runes cover its obsidian lemmet, smoldering with almost tangible shadow. These evil weapons draw their potency from the Shadow Weave, a corrupting font of magic. Its pommel is wrapped in a cured black leather, and bears the emblem of the Unseated, an elite fraction that associates in deepest secret with the shadow syndicates of Thultanthar.

In these places, dusk functions as a powerful weapon. It is roughly 23 inches long.

Cloak of Shadows: This magically imbued cloak infused with the nether energies of the Shadowfell allow the wearer a seemingly unending access to throwing daggers. These knives are between 12”-16” in length. They aren't too big and not so small that you’d have to throw harder and strain to watch them in flight.

>>>>>>> Personalty:
Nihil can be cold, but it's only because her heart burns so brightly for those she swears to protect. She thinks tactically and logically, and her manner of address is often quite reserved. She keeps to the walls and the shadows--old habits, she says with a smirk, die hard--and fights with precise, surgical strikes, similar to how she speaks. With all that said, Nihil is capable of intense passion: when someone threatens those she has sworn to protect, her fury knows no bounds. She also believes almost single mindedly in Thultanthar's cause, and will do anything she needs to protect her home and her beliefs.


Combat Skills:

Nihil is a master of duel wielding and sword fighting, he athletic skills exceed those of the average human substantially. Her strength and speed allows her to make astonishing acrobatic leaps and stunts, able to leap 20 feet through the air without much of a running jump or 10 feet directly up. Her strength as a Revenant allows her to also dead lift 150 pounds with some effort, her senses are sharpened from her long experience and training, her hearing sharp enough to make out the slightest of noise thanks to the fact her own breath or heart beat wont get in the way. He senses are sharp enough she can still fight effectively even if completely blinded or in absolute darkness thanks to her long years of training in zero visibility while alive.

>>>>> Supernatural powers:

Curse of Unliving: Due to the curse on Nihil, she is no longer a living being, neither is she a true Undead. She does however possess some of their abilities and has darkvision out to 18m (60 feet). Possesses some immunities, including being immune to: most mind-affecting effects, poison, sleep effects, paralysis to the nerve system, stunning from a concussion, and viral diseases. She cannot sustain nonlethal damage (other words be knocked out by normal means), ability drain, or energy drain. However unlike other true Undead, she cannot operate without her head or brain, and a stab through the heart renders here powerless and will result in death, suffocation and similar can still kill her, she can also go without food for long periods of time, and needs little to no sleep. Though she can sleep if she chooses and does so to speed recovery.

Dusk till Dawn: When both Dusk and Dawn are used while in the proper setting the weapons bestow special powers to their wielder.

1. Dark profane energy surrounds the user. Helping sheild them from harm and grants greater resistance to magical damage.
2. Baleful Rend: When she land's consecutive hits with both dusk and dawn, she deal's an additional brun of negative energy damage that slowly smothers the life force of the tragte making them feel weaker and weaker. This effect applies to any attack that lands, even if it is a superficial cut causing little harm.
3. Critical Drain: If either Dusk or Dawn strikes a vital organ, that organ begins to rot and die, this rot will then slowly spread throughout the victims body unless treated with potent healing.
4. Wielder becomes highly resistant to negative energy
5. This supernatural ability causes both Dusk and Dawn to radiate shadowy illumination out to a 20-foot radius. All creatures can be blinded from the absolute lack of lighting. Even creatures that can normally see in such conditions (such as with darkvision or low-light vision) are unable to see while in an area shrouded in magical darkness. Normal lights (torches, candles, lanterns, and so forth) are incapable of brightening the area, as are light spells of lower tier level. Higher level light spells are not affected by darkness. Darkness counters or dispels any light spell of equal or lower tier level. Even the wielder of the blades is rendered blind by this magical darkness. Though it should be noted Nihil has trained specifically to fight under these conditions.

>>>>>>> Fighting Style:

Nihil is a trained Shadowdancer, this discipline is quite unique at the moment and exist primarily within Thultanthar, Shadowdancers draw upon the power of the shadows to become a bit like a "super rogue" in that their ability to hide is very potent. As a shadowdancer becomes more experienced, he can command the shadows to do his bidding. This art is perfect for assassins, in battle one can move so fast as to leave a ‘shadow’ image behind but only on a successful dodge, which can fool dim minded monsters and even a skillful warrior in the heat of combat. When hit though weapons will just go though them like they were a shade or ghost, they also fad away slowly, depending on the persons skill at the dance.

As the name does imply the fighting style is much like a dance in resemblance, with much acrobatics aimed to throw an enemy off guard and exploit openings. This style is often used in cohesion with duel weapons for their greater mobility.

>>>>>>> Backstory:

Nihil was born a mortal in Neverdawn, a settlement in Thultanthar, which is, to say the least, never an easy thing. She was a member of the closest thing that the Neverdawn mortals have to nobility: a bloodline that, despite extreme adversity, had managed to survive in a land where simply to be alive was a threat to one's existence. Her mother and father along with the rest of her clan trained her from birth to be a warrior: to be one whom the hopeless mortals that were unlucky enough to be born or wander into Neverdawn might look to for protection or aid. Nihil met this challenge handily, and for a number of years her name was synonymous with hope for those poor souls in Neverdawn who were still alive. As it was a land ravaged by horrors of many kinds.

Then, just like so many others who had brought those people hope, Nihil died.

It was a glorious, heroic death, and one that certainly wasn't in vain; however, the newest protector of Neverdawn was no more. Indeed, Nihil was destined to be the last scion of her bloodline, as the forces of evil that had brought her down soon after slew her entire clan also. There was no more hope for the people of Neverdawn, as they had no living champion to protect them. Fortunately, death did not prove the end.

Something, or one, brought Nihil back. No one, including herself, at least not at first, knew what. She's certainly not alive, but she's just as certainly not one of the unliving hordes that stalk Neverdawn and much of the world. All she knows is that something brought her back for a purpose--and she's not alone. When she returned, she was greeted by a motley assortment of undead that insisted they meant her no harm. She gave them a chance to speak, and what they told her was shocking: they were members, they said, of a secret organization called the Morning Path, devote followers of the Bone King. Their purpose, they said, was to find a way for living and unliving to coexist in harmony. For now, that meant the protection of the living from the mindless--not only to save life, but also to prove that not all undead were monsters. Would Nihil, they asked, be interested in joining their cause?

Nihil leapt at the chance without hesitation, but the transition required some adjustment. The Path, they said, operated in secret, based on principles of stealth and cunning. Any open organization would surely be crushed, so the Path's beneficiaries hardly ever knew who was responsible for their salvation in detail. No one knew that Nihil of the Dead was the same Nihil as had defended them so ardently in the past; they merely knew that now a mysterious revenant would swoop in, save them, and disappear without more than a wink and a smile.

Nihil adapted to this new lifestyle, when a wrinkle emerged: a man named Dios. He hated the undead with a passion, and Nihil was shocked when, after attempting to assist him in fighting off a throng of zombies, he turned his blade on her. She fled, but he pursued, and has been following her off and on for quite a while now. Nihil, for her part, has been forced out of the Neverdawn for a month or more: Dios seems to know her home turf practically as well as she, and he had the additional edges of experience and drive. Now she's been in hiding ever since, until the time of the Disjunction.

>>>>>>> Description: In appearance, Like all Necroloth's the Hunter resembles a metal skeletal form with swirling green energies emanating from his mechanical limbs and baleful lifeless bright emerald eyes. His exo-skeletal systems however require a cool down time after battle, where they then repair even the most crippling of damages within hours. The Hunter was also given what was a better-constructed and armored form than his smaller, Necroloth Warrior brethren. He is a veritable giant, towering over even a black orcs as his exoskeleton towers at an impressive 7'10 reaching nearly eight feet high when standing at full height. His figure is humanoid in appearance, but can hunch down like an animal and race at amazing speeds towards his targets, thanks to his gyro-balanced assembly systems.


Family: n/a

>>>>>>> Possessions:

Staff of Light: Hunter carries a modified Warscythe which supports not one but two blades that can be surrounded in Nether force a form of dark purple negative energy that opposes divine energy, and can pass into the nether to damage ethereal beings or targets. The long handle, 8 feet in length, of the weapon is made of phrik alloy, which allows it to resist energy and plasma weapons. At the end of the handle are the two powered blades both roughly 20 inches in length. The blades could be activated by a switch further down the weapon's shaft, and can only be activated by the Hunter. The weapon is almost as long as the wielder's body, and keeps enemies at a distance, giving the wielder the advantage of a longer reach. An exception among Thultanthar technology, the staff does not use Nether Weaponry principles, instead it absorbs energy from thin air to release in the form of powerful lightning bolts. A secondary effect of the negative energy is a steep decrease in the temperature around the wielder which he can focus into a blast of cold air, the cold blast can slow opponents down considerably, mechanical or not. Stronger attacks can be charged to over come charged defenses.

>>>>>>> Personalty:

The Hunter is a cold, merciless being. Even as a Thultanthar herald, he displayed no mercy toward his enemies. On the battlefield, Hunter is an excellent commander and an ingenious tactician, fighting hard to bring down the Bone Kings enemies. He has no qualms with sacrificing civilians to ensure his own survival and will exploit an enemies compassion for other wherever he can. Though Hunter demonstrated incredible brutality and a singular lack of mercy or compassion toward his enemies, he was not entirely heartless and does show empathy. He is also been thought of as cowardly, often fleeing a battle should events not go as planned. Though he is also incredibly arrogant.

Combat Skills:

The Crypt Keeper is a cold and calculating general, a brilliant strategist, and a powerful fighter. He was known as one of the greatest Hunters in Thultanthar and a collector of the swords of fallen champions of the Divine, which he sometimes uses in battle. Grievous hunts Templar for sport, keeping their order crest of his victims within his cloak as trophies of his superiority. Taught numerous fighting arts by Morior, he has developed a personalized unorthodox fighting form, involving prolonged lightning-fast flurries, with spins from his stave and power moves designed to overwhelm his enemies. However, his lack of finesse frustrated Morior. Each of his six-fingered arms can split lengthwise in two, thus giving the Hunter the ability to use four limbs if he chooses to. Able to spin his arms in a whirling storm of deadly lacerating black icy light that few can withstand, he is also able to spin his torso and his wrists in a 360 degree motion at extremely fast speeds continuously, effectively becoming a buzz-saw. In addition to this, The Hunter has hover-lifts built into his legs, an anti-gravity technology capable of levitating an object, allowing his feet to double as hands and giving the ability to burst in a single direction quickly, or change direction on a dim.

Proficiencies:
>> Archery: Extremely Poor.

>>>>> Abilities and powers:

Necroloth Construct: Thanks to his Necroloth construct, the Hunter is capable of withstanding and wading through storms of gunfire of the standard 20th century firearms and beyond, crash through walls intact, and survive explosions to some degree. Repeated shotgun blasts have enough force to knock it down and temporarily disable it, while heavy amounts of automatic fire are able to compromise the internal drives in it's limbs or pierce and damage it's central soul core. The esokeleton is actuated by a powerful network of electric servomechanisms, making the Hunter superhumanly, to the point his superhuman strength enables him to lift a tremendous amount of weight, evidently ranging to several thousand tons. Allowing him the ability to break through a cement wall, to being able to handle firing a Heavy machine gun from the hip with one hand with no difficulty.

Necroloth Sensory: The Hunter is capable of running internal systems checks; calculating the distance of objects relative to itself; making detailed kinetic studies of trajectories; sampling and analyzing the atmosphere, weather patterns and wind velocity; analyzing human emotional states (in order to assess possible hostility); analyzing body language and direction of muscle contraction; calculating the force of gravity; analyzing texture and temperature of materials; and sensing radar scans.

Necroloth Mimicry: The Hunter series is also equipped with vocals which enable it to replicate any human speech pattern of which it has heard an adequate specimen. It does this by recording and storing syllables of the subjects' voices, which it then replays and uses to digitally synthesize their speech patterns. The Hunter's auditory sensors are located upon either side of its head, where human ears would be. One ear records the full un-equalized range of external sounds, while the other can automatically filter signals to within a narrow range for a specific auditory signal.

Necroloth Optical Sensors: The Hunter's optical sensors can sample an extended range of visible frequencies, including infrared (which can allow it to see heated bodies in total darkness, and can also detect supernatural beings aura's). This information is then displayed on a 40,000 bit digitized display. Concussion-proof lenses protect the Hunter's eyes, which are capable of moving independently. When using both eyes to track two different targets moving in different directions, depth perception is created artificially by creating a computer-generated off-angle ghost image. The Hunter is capable of motion tracking, search modes, facial identification and recognition and has extensive vision enhancement capabilities including long range "zoom" (the Hunter can snap-magnify an image by around x15), motion analysis and "night vision."

Pain Resistance: The Hunter does not feel pain as it does not have nerves, but he can sense injuries. The Hunter can do this through the use of impact sensors or as part of the overall sensor "sphere" that the unit generates, approximately akin to counter battery radar. There are various impact sensors that record localized vibrations in the armor shell and, by extrapolation. The Hunter may also use these sensors to locate threats that are either hidden or out of visual range by calculating the trajectory of the attack once hit. This data can also allows the Hunter to conduct low-complexity self repairs when given time. This superhuman durability also makes him virtually indestructible due to the parts of his body made entirely out of steel and artificial muscle fibers.

Exoskeleton: The center of the metal Exoskeleton of the Hunter is a soul core that acts as a microprocessor controlling the fully armored hyper-alloy combat chassis which is constructed with frictionless bearings in its joints, and a servo-actuated control system. Its limbs are controlled by axial drive motors and clavicular trailing links, allowing the Hunter to maneuver at a burst of speed of up to 22 mph in under a second. The Crypt Keepers superhuman speed enables him to run extremely fast for great distances and is also capable of running fast enough to scale walls without falling. The armored frame is capable of withstanding most small arms fire and is able to survive being set on fire and being covered in molten steel with only minimal damage and degradation of capabilities. There are weak spots however; as one was able to blow the first Necroloth in half with a pipe bomb by jamming it in between its joints. However, the upper half torso was still functional albeit with severed left arm. Sharp-edged objects such as metal pipes or shrapnel can penetrate the Exoskeleton armor plate if propelled with sufficient force. Energy weapons can penetrate the armor and can momentarily disable the Hunter. Enough force could permanently dislocate limbs and disrupt the internal frame.

Soul Core: The Hunter is powered by and built around a central core of raw spiritual energy, linked by a nether thread to the Necroloths true soul, in essence it's actions are controlled remote by it's Phylactery. Since the Soul core receives commands from the Hunter's Phylactery, it is thus immune to weapons or magic meant to target the soul or mind. Because of the this the true Hunter can never be killed, since it's will can live on through it's Phylactery. However, since the sou core still powers and controls the action's of the Hunter' body, if it takes enough damage or is removed can easily lead to this Necroloth's destruction. The tough rib cage around it offers some protection from most uncharged attacks, and offers considerable protection from unprepped ranged attacks.

Deaths Chill: The Necroloth is able to freeze a the air around a large area causing large hailstones to pound down over that area, dealing both impact and cold damage to creatures in their path. The storm also slows their movement as they start to slowly freeze over and makes it harder to hear. Necroloth's care immune to this intense cold.

Deaths End: The Staff of Light can create a sheet of ice supported by a sheet of frigid air. As ordinary water ice, it could be melted by intense heat, releasing steam, or broken with sufficient force of equal charge. This wall of ice could be created in varies forms: such as a wall or plane of ice set on the ground or anchored between points, or a dome of ice over a certain location.

Deaths Bite: The Necroloth simply projects a cone of intense cold from a swing of his stave or an outstretched palm, draining heat from all caught within and eventually freezing them in place. It could also cause a cloud of fog to emanate from the point of origin, obscuring sight and concealing those within. The cloud will dissipate as a normal fog in a strong enough wind, and can not be used underwater, instead freezing it.

Deaths leash: The Necroloth can create a lightning lure that lashes a creature of the Crypt Keepers choosing within fifteen feet with a whip-like bolt of painful lightning. Thousands of bolts of electricity easily capable of frying a full grown rhino are unleashed on whatever target the leash manages to snare. Once it grabs hold of something the Necroloth can then toss them into the air.

Death's spark: The Necroloth can fire a bolt of energy from his staff, which causes lightning to strike from the sky into a target at some fifty feet or less. Thunder subsequently booms around the target as well, dealing further damage. Alternatively the Necroloth can simply coat his weapon in lightening to further empower his attacks with deadly arches of lightening.

[GrievousKhan]

It uses a slightly... different format then on the OP but includes all that needs to be known and far more. If chimera girl can do it so can I.

"The Draconian race was forged in the merciless crucible of war. It is all they know. War defines them, and their quest for dominion drives them ever onward. The weakling and the fool have no place among the Draconian. Victory is all that matters, and it must be achieved by any means and at any cost."

Description

Due to the brutality of their surroundings on their home world, natural selection has played a significant role in the evolution of the Draconian. Unlike most species, Draconian eyes are wide-set - on Earth this is distinctive of prey animals, and in this case it gives the Draconian 240-degree vision, giving them greater visual acuity and awareness of approaching predators. Draconian can also reproduce and mature at an astonishing rate. They also stand on average between 6'2" and 6'8", making Draconian impressively tall with a heavy weight to match, commonly possessing a mass between 220 and 320 lbs. Draconian feet are ended with three strong talon-like claws with a fourth claw in the back as are their hands, with the replacement of the rear claw with one thumb on each hand. A Draconian's head features a blunt snout, a strong brow, and reptilian frills on the cheeks and ears. On the back of the head a crest of hornlike scales form what resembles a mess of ropy hair. Draconian eyes are usually red or gold in hue.

Draconian resemble in many ways what their name suggests: humanoid reptiles (or dragons). Draconian exhibit many draconic features, including a scaly hide and the capacity to use breath like flames. The scales a Draconian wears are scarlet, gold, rust, ocher, bronze, or brown in hue, usually identified by it's clan. The scales are typically in their greatest concentration around forearms, lower legs, feet, shoulders, and thighs, with a very fine leathery covering over the rest of the body.

Young Draconian, grow at an impressively rapid rate, much faster than most other races, reaching the equivalent maturity of a human child of 10 by age 3. However, this rate of maturation slows dramatically within a few short years and Draconian are not considered physically mature for another fifteen years. Once they do reach adulthood, like most reptile equivalents, will continue to slowly grow throughout their life time.

Draconian are often mistaken for reptiles but are in fact warm-blooded draconic creatures. In fact, the internal body temperature of the Draconian is warmer than that of most similar races, being so hot as to seem feverish to the human touch. While this might seem disadvantageous the lack of hair and large mouth allow the Draconian to displace body heat at an effective rate, meaning Draconian are comfortable in cold climates while remaining no more vulnerable to heat than humans.

Draconian nurse their hatchlings for several months before teeth begin to come in. A Draconian will then slowly introduce soft food and then move towards normal Draconian eating habits, which contain more meat than is typical of most other races.

Born Soldiers
Draconian are known to have a high tolerance to pain, and their immune system is something to behold, and it has not been known for a Draconian to remain sick for more then a day and for severe cases two days. Draconian are also far larger and stronger then most humanoids and grow to be heavily built, Draconian Warriors are also vicious predators whose very bodies have evolved to maximize their fighting potential in close combat. Their bony crests and tough, scaly hides can turn aside the surest of blows. Even unarmed, Draconian Warriors are formidable foes, with sharp claws and teeth capable of tearing out throats and biting off limbs, along with a powerful tail that can smash a man's rib-cage. Though it should be noted not all Clans and species of Draconians a born with tails, in fact only those of the Blood Legion. Their reptilian heritage has also grants them the capability to regenerate lost limbs, albeit very slowly. Though this is more true of those in the Ash Legion. Draconian's also possess incredibly durable hides well suited for battle, older Scar-veterans have been known to have scales as hard as rock and Oldbloods grow to have hides so strong they can deflect glancing fire from smaller arms fire. Draconian also, however this is extremely rare, can sometimes grow very long and strong pair of leathery wings allowing those few lucky ones limited flight and gliding abilities. Most are known to be able to spit a caustic substance that once it hits the air ignites into a flammable burning liquid, effectively giving Draconian's the ability to breath fire like the legendary dragons of old in human myths. Modern day battlefields have turned this into more of a psychological weapon.



Never stay down
Draconian's also are quite durable and when injured have an inner strength that can push them to accomplish even more than when they are at their best. Draconian's also heal more easily than other humanoids, making putting one of of a fight difficult in some cases. Some Draconian have additional abilities. For instance, while most Draconian have vision comparable with humans a number have enhanced vision to see in low-light conditions. Some Draconian learned to shrug of wounds and enter into what has been widely known as Draconian rage, which gives gravely injured Draconian the resolve to get back on their feet and keep fighting for a little longer. However, most potent of all is a Draconian's flaming breath, which, like that of a mythical dragon, is capable of burning a man alive or super heating certain metals.


Draconian Warmachine
The Draconian Imperium has one of the galaxies most trained, disciplined, and powerful armies thanks to their warrior culture, and easily hold one of the most powerful military in the galaxy, if not feared. They are well equipped and well funded, there are few armies with the zeal and ferocity of the Draconian Imperium's soldiers. The Draconian are also very highly industrious by nature, Building massive Forge worlds that build quality arms superior to even the most advanced races, and are renowned and feared for their military technology — weapon development, war machines and mass production. Their rifles and pistols, though still technically primitive when compared with mass effect weapons of other nations, are still particularly finely made and have numerous weapon load outs. They make and build thee best weapons widely known across the galaxay.

Disadvantages

Divided we stand
The Draconian suffer from lack of an real central government, they fight among themselves more then anything else and the different clans and High Legions find it difficult to near impossible to ever work together. Not to say they will not unit against a foe that endanger's them as a whole, but such alliance's are short lived until such enemy is defeated.

Feral instincts
Draconian well natural warriors, are also quite primitive, they are easily angered and go into fits of rage over the smallest or imagined of slights. Their technology is fairly backward, as they still widely use slugthrowers over more advanced energy weapons. Draconian code also dictates that fighting at a distance is cowardly, and often favor combat in close quarters. It is known that Draconian see scars, and mended wounds to be a badge of honor and treat scars from battle like trophies, they show that one was grievously wounded but has survived through skill or determination. They are also very racily divided and are only extremely loyal to another Draconian if they are of the same warband or clan. However these same mannerisms and attitudes make it difficult for them to make allies.

Trust no one: Xenophobic
Due to past grievances caused by the first intelligent alien race they came across, Draconian's by and large find it hard to trust other alien power's. Specially ones that are vastly different from them, such as none humanoids. For this reason their usual order of business went met with another alien power is to assume hostility and at worst cases shoot first and ask questions never.

Draconian's have a well-known dedication to honor and how deeply rooted this trait is remains debatable. However, all Draconian tend to view all living things, even hated enemies, as deserving of courtesy and respect. To Draconian's, honor is more than a word and is often considered more important than life itself. Cowardice is not simply undesirable amongst Draconian's, it is considered outright repulsive.

Part of the roots of this honorable attitude lies in the Draconian's drive for self-improvement. The Draconic nature of Draconians gives them a strong self-consciousness and a tendency for strong emotions. Both of these combine to make a Draconian particularly wanting of the approval of others. Draconian's place great value on the skill of an individual, including themselves. Failing at a task is anathema to Draconians and as a result they can sometimes push themselves to unhealthy extremes of effort. This aspect of the Draconian mind means few of the race take a laidback approach to any skill or ability, striving ever to become the masters of a particular skill and Draconians respect those among other races that approach life in the same manner. As a result most Draconian's mercenaries come to their way of life through a desire to prove themselves and win respect from their brethren.

Other races may see Draconian's as proud or even arrogant because of this dedication to excellence and high standards. It is true that Draconians are typically proud of their race's accomplishments. However, Draconian's are also more than willing to recognize with respect the accomplishments of other races in turn, whether or not the race in question is an ally or enemy.

Moreso than other races, Draconian's often wear their hearts on their sleeves, typically hiding neither anger nor joy. Draconian's are enthusiastic about life, particularly success, and brooding about failure for only a short time before their disappointment is shaped into a strong drive for improvement. Only a handful of Draconian's actually demonstrate traits that might be considered timid or reserved and the vast majority of the race have no qualms asking for what they need or taking time to improve themselves. Trust is a major factor in the lives of all Draconian's and each expects others to be just as open and forthcoming with them as they are.

Perhaps paradoxically given the often rigid conditions of their society, Draconians have a strong sense of independence and self-worth. Most Draconian's however do not view this as a need to break away from society or their clan as other individuals might, but rather to shape it for the better through their own unique strengths and weaknesses. Likewise, Draconian's see themselves as responsible for those around themselves, the group ultimately reflecting on the individual. In this way the successes and failures of each Draconian are the failures and successes of the group they associate with, giving Draconian's a very collective sense of self while retaining their individuality. Ultimately, Draconians hold themselves accountable for their choice of allies and poor judgment is considered no excuse for failing to uphold the standards all Draconian's hold themselves to.

Most of the Draconian's race's history is shrouded in war and violence, more often then not the race has been at war with something. When they lack enemies to fight they will usually turn inward and the many Tribes would often war with one another.

It is said that long ago when the Draconian had been new to interstellar travel that their home world was lost in a great struggle. Early in their infancy as they came into the space age, the Draconian first contact with another sentient race had been a violent one. The war with the Sorian had almost annihilated the Draconian race and brought them to the edge of extinction. The Sorians had come in with force seeking to possibly wipe out the Draconian's in order to have undisputed control of their relay gate. The Sorian invasion force were fewer but had far more advanced technology then the Draconian's, and they steadily lost ground, in the late stages of the war one Draconian rose to power having united many other Tribes under him. In the wake of the war, this Draconian, Sil'izza, took advantage of the weakness of several key tribes bringing them under his control. Though did not have undisputed claim of all Raptora, he quickly earned his place as leader in the battle of Seven Stone, a great battle in the rocky swamp hinder lands on the Draconian home world. With this victory the remaining Tribes united under his banner, an event that had never happened before in their history, and with his united force was able to push the Sorian off the Draconian's home world. Soon they brought the fight to the Sorian on one of their main colony worlds and in a last desperate effort by the Sorian, they activated and launched a powerful super weapon.

The thermal charged warhead impacted on the home world of the Draconian's killing untold millions. Before impact many had been evacuated, though the warning may have come to late for many other souls. The weapon rendered most of the planet uninhabitable. So though they had won the war, beating back the Sorians from their home system, they had lost their own planet in the process. The Draconian's learned an important lesson that day, that has stayed with them to present time. Though the Draconian's where able to migrate to a new world, and adopt a planet as their new home word, Tyranus, the Draconian's would never be the same again and to this day have a deep hatred for the Sorian race and find it difficult to trust foreign alien powers.

Over the course of many countless years, the Draconeon have spread around the home system, and many other neighboring ones and have come to dominate them and have built many colonies and even dome cities on their once beautiful home world in the less destroyed regions, though these latter are few. In recent times Draconian' have sated their warlike ways by selling themselves as mercenaries and bodyguards and are still some of the best warriors in the galaxy.

The Draconians are a military culture and their society, technology and relationships are very much focused on supporting war, Thus almost every Draconian is technically a warrior within their clan. Society is built around war clans which Draconian become a part of from childhood. Non-military tasks, such as farming and trade, can be left to the young, retired, injured, and slaves. But no matter a Draconian vocation they are always viewed as a soldier and view life like a soldier. Weakness and foolishness from individuals is viewed with particular contempt, some of such acts can result in a Draconian becoming a gladium, or in a worse case, the Draconian's name being struck from the race's history, specially if they have dishonored their clan by going back on a oath made. Draconian society is broken down into three main groups, each Draconian belongs to a warband numbering some sixteen members, each warband makes up and belongs to a clan that usually numbers somewhere into a fifty to a hundred warbands, and finally warbands are organized into a Legion numbering some a thousand individual clans or often more.

Draconian on occasion mate for life, but most relationships are more casual than that. Families are recognized but adult Draconian have very little contact with their parents or offspring, but sometimes keep tabs on each other for events which could reflect back on the family’s reputation. As soon a hatchling is born they enter a fahrar of one of their parents legion. The fahrar is the hatchlings first warband and they are trained as a military unit under supervision of an adult and are considered an adult when the warband no longer needs supervision.

The hatchlings are taught to unify and define their own social structure and the warband shares a root name, adopted from their clans, which they incorporate into their surname. While ancestry is known and acknowledged, the parents have little to do with the raising of the hatchling, and as such warbands are viewed as a Draconian's family and the bonds of loyalty and kinship formed between them stronger than those of other races' families. Though some Draconian's leave or change warbands, these strong bonds usually leave a deep impact on the Draconian; Draconian changing warband must change their name and fit in quickly if they are to survive. Male and female Draconian are viewed as equals and male and female Draconian do not differentiate themselves through wearing differently tailored or styled clothing.

The Draconian are highly industrious, despite their warlike ways, their forging superior to even most other races, and are renowned and feared for their military technology — weapon development, war machines and mass production. Their rifles and pistols, though still technically primitive when compared with mass effect or energy weapons of other nations, are still particularly finely made. However, not all of their advancements involve weapons—they also make some of the finest vehicles and space crafts in the Galaxy.

Some of their planets has been converted to ranches and fields for herding and growing of feed for the animals. Cattle, Semia, dolyaks, and devourers are their primary sources of food. The Draconian are known to have "meat festivals" as a type of cultural celebration.

Under the Khan-Tarr are his imperators, rulers of a entire legion, Under each imperator are his primary commanders, the tribunes. A legion rarely has more than ten tribunes, and this office oversees an entire theatre of war or large swath of controlled territory. Beneath the tribunes are centurions. Each centurion commands a number of warbands called a tarannen(a "company") and coordinates maneuvers on a broad scale within the tribune's authority. In areas where multiple centurions are coordinating, a primus centurion might be appointed—the "first among equals" of the centurions. The primus centurion leads an active assault force of 3-5 large companies; this is smaller than the numbers encompassed by the tribune's authority, but still sizable.

Each warband has its own legionnaire. The legionnaires are the true heart of the legions. They lead their warbands (typically a group of 6-16 Drakes) on missions, guide them to victory, and provide individual leadership to the squad. Under their command are the pure soldiers of each legion –the warband members who are the rank and file of Draconian strength.

There are also ranks within the structure of the High Legions that do not contribute to the direct chain of command. A brevet is a temporary field command used in times of emergency. Quaestor is the legion title for quartermaster, a position typically held by an older soldier whose skills on the field have lessened, but whose experience and administrative guidance are extremely valuable. Scrapper is the catch-all term for a warband on punishment duty, no matter what their official rank.

"Primus" is the title for an adult instructor at a fahrar. As hatchlings are born, they are brought to their legion's fahrar to be educated and raised in a warband composed of the hatchlings of that year (or close to it). The primus provides education and guidance, preparing the young warband for life as soldiers in their legion.

The bottommost rank in the High Legions is the gladium. A gladium is a Draconian without a warband; they are the lowest grunts, given little respect or responsibility—regardless of their previous titles or rank. Without a warband, a Draconian is not trusted. It is every gladium’s duty to rejoin a warband as quickly as possible. Until they do, they are seen as a black mark on the legion’s record and are looked down upon.

There is a concrete difference between gladium and Draconian who have been assigned away from their warbands. The former have no support and no place in the hierarchy, except on the very lowest rungs. The latter are simply performing a task or solo mission away from their units. It is acceptable for Draconian to be away from their warbands for a long period, when duty and need require it. But Draconian on independent duty, unlike gladium, always have their units to call on and return to when their missions are complete. The Draconian Imperium has an active force of 518,000 strong split between the four ruling High Legions, however thanks to their warrior culture they can call on over twice as many soldier's when needed.

The Gauss Cannon is the mainstay weapon of The Draconian Imperium, firing an explosive round at high speeds via some form of magnetic propulsion. Common attributes include average damage, average range, low firing randomness, average rate of fire, low muzzle velocity, and an uncommonly high firing arc. The Gauss Cannon is used by the Fire Drakes, and Thunderhead Class. The Leviathan Class, Behemoth Class, and other Warships use Gauss Cannons with extended range and increased damage. A Gauss Cannon explosive round resembles a white bullet with a red ring around it.

Official Name: Hells Fury Riot-Gun
Common Name: Khans Fury
Ammunition: Vengeance Rounds
Price: varies
Use: Heavy crafts
Designer: Gorge Bloodfire
Manufacture: The Blood Gorge
Description:
The Hells Fury Riot-Gun, a weapon that rapid-fires a stream of projectiles at the target, possesses a very high rate of fire and is, but does not have a damage radius. This weapon is best suited at attacking slow-moving targets or low armored ones. Based on the heavy Sluggun.

Official Name: Linked Railgun
Common Name: Railgun
Ammunition: Kraken Penetrator Rounds/Vengeance Rounds
Price: Varies
Use: Used by most Starships or vehicles
Designer: Sith Ironboar
Manufacture: Iron Forge Works
Description:
The Railgun is one of the most powerful weapons and widely used by the Draconians. It fires a magnetically-accelerated hypervelocity projectile to destroy heavily armoured vehicles. It can be used in conjunction with a Markerlight to make it even more accurate. The Railgun mounted on Hammerheads will easily punch through most armor aside from the most advanced. However, it will not penetrate the same spot on a Chimera, though it may cause some minor damage against the side armour. It may also fire a special bundle of submunitions designed to take out a larger number of smaller targets such as infantry.

Official Name: Autocannon
Common Name: Autocannon
Ammunition: Kraken Penetrator Rounds/Vengeance Rounds
Price: Varies
Use: Found on most heavy vehicles
Designer: Sith Ironboar
Manufacture: Iron Forge Works
Description:
Autocannons are rapid firing weapons able to use a wide variety of ammunition, from mass-reactive explosive to solid shells. Autocannons are usually either mounted on weapon carriages or vehicles because of their great weight. Due to their high rate of fire and sufficient killing power, they are effective against large infantry formations and light armored vehicles. They are also useful against heavy infantry such as Space Legions, although their power armour has been known to stop autocannon rounds. Autocannons are used by the Imperium Legions for most of their heavy armor and vessels.

Official Name: Phalanx Anti-Missile
Common Name: Phalanx AM's
Ammunition: Standard Slugs
Price: varies
Use: Anti-missle defense, for most naval units
Designer: Corgun Ironfield
Manufacture: Iron Forge Works
Description:
As tactical missile defense weaponry, the Phalanx Anti Missile has a high rate of fire and uses fired slugs at high volcites to destroy incoming missiles at extreme range, making it quite effective against sustained enemy fire. It's drawback though is that it takes some time before the Phalanx Anti Missile starts shooting, and the missile is actually destroyed. Because of this, the Phalanx Anti Missile will have a tough time protecting anything in its forward perimeter.

Official Name: Hellstrike
Common Name: Hellstrike
Ammunition: Missiles/warheads
Magazine Capacity/Clip Capacity: Depends on aircraft
Price: 30000
Use: Imperium aircraft
Designer: Corgun Ironfield

Equipment
Name: HK-Jet Pack
Manufacture: Iron Forges
Designer: Tragon Steelhide
Common Nicknames: Jump packs
History/Description: A Jump Pack is a back mounted device containing turbines or jets powerful enough to lift even a user in Power Armour. They greatly enhance a Draconian warrior's mobility by allowing him to travel quickly across the battlefield, this combined with the natural wings some Draconian grow allows them unparalleled mobility and control, making great bounding leaps over obstructions and launching themselves into the melee of close combat which they excel in. Its roaring engines allow a user to slow his descent when leaping from low-flying aircraft, allowing him to Deep Strike with relative safety directly into the fray. Any model equipped with a Jump Pack also counts as Jump Infantry.

The weight for five standard slugs would weigh 1lb. and cost 1 credit a piece. Ammunition only fits slugguns of the same size and weight.*


Standard Slug:
The standard slug is the standard-issue antipersonnel ammunition for the Sluggun. It is designed to penetrate a target and detonate, causing horrific injuries. It uses the statistics written above.



Kraken Penetrator Rounds:
Kraken penetrator rounds are potent, more power armor-piercing rounds than the standard bolt. The uranium core is replaced by a solid adamant core and uses a heavier main charge. Upon impact, the outer casing peels away and the high-velocity adamant needle accelerates into the victim, where the larger detonator propels shards of super-hardened metal further into the wound. These are effective against heavily-armored infantry. *Weigh twice as much as normal rounds and the cost of a magazine is tripled.



Inferno Slugs:
Inferno Slugs are designed to immolate their targets and destroy them with superheated chemical fire. The uranium core is replaced with an oxy-phosphorus gel, known as Promethium. However, due to the decreased projectile mass, armor-piercing capabilities are compromised. *These are rounds weigh the same as normal but costs double the normal price for a magazine.



Hellfire Slugs:
Hellfire Slugs are designed for use against organic targets, specifically the Volucris. The core and tip are replaced with a vial of mutagenic acid and thousands of needles. When the round enters the target's body, the vial shatters and the needles pierce the victim's flesh, pumping the acid into the target. Almost the same as the Inferno bolt but does obviously not set the target on fire. These rounds weigh and cost the same as Inferno Bolts (same and double).



Metal Storm Frag Slug:
In the metal storm frag slug, the mass-reactive fuse of the standard bolt is replaced with a proximity fuse, and the uranium core and diamondback tip are replaced with increased high-explosives and a fragmentation casing. This means the slug explodes when it nears an enemy, creating a lethal hail of shrapnel. This bolt is capable of inflicting casualties on multiple lightly-armored targets, but its effectiveness is dramatically reduced when facing heavily-armored foes in Exemplar Armor. These rounds cost the same as Standard Bolts and weigh the same.




Stalker Silenced Shells:
Stalker Silenced Shells are Slug rounds with low sound signatures, meant for covert fighting. They are often used in conjunction with an M40 Targeter System, an extended barrel, and a stock to create a sniping weapon system. A gas cartridge replaces both the propellant base and main charge for silent firing, but this sacrifices muzzle velocity as a result. A solidified mercury slug replaces the mass-reactive warhead for lethality at sub-sonic projectile speed. These rounds are used when stealth and precision are required. These rounds allows for catching the target off guard. These rounds cost the same as Standard Bolts and weigh the same.




Vengeance Rounds
Vengeance Round bolts were created using unstable flux core technology that makes them hazardous to use but extremely potent at penetrating through heavily armored targets. As their name implies, these slugs were developed by Draconian's specifically to target medium armored and heavily armored foes. These round gives the Sluggun the vicious power to pierce most known armor. These rounds cost the same as Standard Bolts and weigh the same.



Dragonfire Slugs
Dragonfire Slugs are hollow-shelled bolts that explode with a gout of superheated gas that can eliminate the value of cover for enemy troops. These rounds cost the same as Standard Bolts and weigh half as much.

L2-Slugthrower
L3-Slugthrower


Official Name: Slugthrower
Common Name: Slugthrower
Ammunition: Standard Slug
Magazine Capacity/Clip Capacity: 80
Price: 1,500 credits
Use: Standard infantry
Designer: Warmac Nerblood
Manufacture: The Blood Gorge
Description:
The Slugthrower is a large, .75 caliber assault rifle and unlike more advanced weapons of the time still uses slugs (as the name implies) and lack mass accelerators. It has a much greater mass than most standard-issue rifles such as the M-8 Avenger, although it is slightly shorter in length. Unlike most rifles, it lacks a stock, resulting in a grip much like a pistol's or a sub-machine gun's. A Draconian's bulky powered armour would make shouldering a stock an awkward experience, but the natural strength of a Draconian alone is often also able to compensate for vibrations and oscillation, making a stock redundant. Stocks are sometimes used, however, with an extended barrel and an M40 Targeter System to transform the Slugthrower into a sniping weapon system, however these are rare since Dragonites prefer close range combat. These sniper-Slugthrowers are most often used with Stalker Silenced Shells. The Slugthrower is complex to produce and requires dedicated maintenance. Draconian's also wear massive suits of power armour that further enhance their control over the powerful recoil of the weapon, and aid the already prodigious skill of the individual Draconeon warrior with autosense uplinks and suit-integrated targeting systems. The Slugthrower is simply far too heavy to be wielded effectively by the average human being.The Slugthrower also is far more susceptible to being fouled by dirt and mishandling than the basic mass effect weapons, thus despite it's capabilities it is still quite a primitive weapon in compression.The Slugthrower need for physical ammunition demands far more logistic organization than the standard weapons of the era, and Draconian Legions have been known to go through a small stockpile of rounds in a single campaign.

Stock:
Stocks increase accuracy of Slugguns by a good margin.

Extended barrel:
Increases the range by 30 ft (to a total of 160 ft.). Costs 25 credits.

Double barrel
Also known as the Storm Sluger variant. The Storm Sluger is a compact double-barreled version of the Slugthrower. Resembling two Slugguns attached side by side, the storm sluger is capable of withering fire without hindering maneuverability, enabling the bearer enormous individual firepower. Storm Slugers are popular with older Draconian forces, specifically Oldbloods and Scar-veterans.

Launcher:
An attachments that allows allows a launcher to be equipped instead of a knife bayonet. Allowing the use of frag and plasma grenades to be launched.

M40 Targeter System:
This scope and laser dot sight allows far greater accuracy and effective range for Slugguns to double their effective range.

Bayonet:
Well most L1-Slugthrowers came with the stranded knife attachments, it was found hard armor of modern battle fields where to thick for it to be of much use. Thus the L2-Heavysluger comes with a chainsaw bayonet. The chainsaw consists of razor-sharp, carbide-tipped blades powered by a variable-torque motor, and is capable of killing an enemy in seconds.

Tripod:
Due to its bulk and weight, Imperial Draconian infantry operate Heavy Bolters using a two-man team, mounting the weapon on a tripod. This helps create a stable firing platform when prone increasing accuracy.

Ammo belt protection:
That Draconian Marines heavy Slugthrowers have the ammunition belt feed protected by a tough, flexible feed chute.
Can be bought for additional 200 credits and removes the chance of jamming, but increase the weight by 20Ibs.

Common Name: Kaback
Ammunition: Vengeance Rounds
Magazine Capacity/Clip Capacity: 200
Price: 1,450
Use: Police
Designer: Bhergav Burnpyre
Manufacture: Burning Heart Forges
Description:

The LT7-"Kaback" Assault Rifle is modeled after the L1-Slugthower series in terms of size and power. But is tailored made for peace keeper units mainly police forces. Thanks to it's higher rate of reliance and ability to be easily repaired and maintained. It uses .45 rounds instead of the larger .70 caliber, but holds a rate of fire of 585 rounds a minute with a effective range of 1,000 m and a muzzle velocity of 847 m/s. It is however not as modular as the L1 or L2 thus does not benefit from the same attachments. But is equipped with tactical silencer which and be activated when needed and a red dot to increase accuracy. It also benefits from having a much higher then normal ammo count thanks to a duel built in box and the ability to be belt fed. Making it some what heavy.

Official Name: "Harbinger" G290
Common Name: Slugthrower cannon, G290
Ammunition: Typically Kraken Penetrator Rounds
Magazine Capacity/Clip Capacity: 200 Rounds
Price: 10,000 Credits
Use: By Scar veterans and Oldbloods in Dreadnought armor
Designer: Gorge Bloodfire
Manufacture: The Blood Gorge

The "Harbinger" G290 is a heavy, automatic anti-personnel weapon commonly used by Dreadnought armoured Draconian. Its most notable feature is its incredibly high rate of fire, easily eclipsing that of the autocannon it replaced. It is a medium-caliber rotary autocannon, with 6 barrels cycled by an electric motor past a single chamber. The weapon was developed after the Sorion war as a replacement for the autocannon. This weapon is the standard alternative to the heavy Storm sluger as a Warbands special weapon. Its design has changed little, retaining the distinctively long, cylindrical, rotating barrels. Although it lacks the range of most other heavy weapons, the assault cannon is a fearsome weapon when used in the close range role it was designed for. The weapon is prone to overheating and jams due to its high rate of fire - the number of rounds fired per second are counted in the hundreds. The barrels and other firing components are made of a heat-dispersing ceramic/metallic alloy, helping the weapon to withstand the intense heat generated by its high rate of fire. Despite this, the barrels still reach temperatures of over 300°. Due to the high rate of wear on the barrels, the barrels are replaced after every mission. Motor and barrel failure are common problems with the assault cannon, making the weapon prone to jamming during sustained bursts. The weight and complexity of the mechanism, and the heavy recoil generated means that the assault cannon requires a stable firing platform. The weapon is not considered man portable, however the powerful servos, recoil compensators and stabilizers built into Dreadnought Armour suits allows the elite Draconian warbands to carry the weapon into battle. The assault cannon is well suited to the battlefield role of Dreadnought Armour squads, providing a massive rate of fire which often compensates for the enemies' vast superiority in numbers. In confined environments providing long corridors of fire, such as space hulks and urban alleyways, the assault cannon is invaluable. The high rate of fire makes the assault cannon unsuitable for extended engagements when used by Dreadnought's, as the ammunition carried is quickly exhausted. This drawback is negated in vehicles, where ammunition storage capacity is far greater. The standard ammunition fired is a cased round, comprising a dense metallic core covered in a non-metallic composite sheath with adamantine tip. This provides excellent penetration capabilities against light and medium armour.

Use (Who Uses It):
Designer: Sikako Ironstone
Manufacture: Iron Forge Works
Description: A Chainsword is a common form of chain weapon which is essentially a sword with powered teeth that run along the blade like that of a chainsaw. Most versions make use of monomolecular-edged or otherwise razor sharp teeth. The weapon makes an angry buzzing sound as the teeth spin around, intensifying into a high pitched scream as they grind into armour. There are also known to be Axe variations as well. It has been named the SCRAW due to the sound it produce's sounding like that of a predator on Tyranus.

Official Name: L4-Heavy Slugthrower
Common Name: Heavy Slugthrower, HS, Back Breaker, Bruiser
Ammunition: Vengeance Rounds
Magazine Capacity/Clip Capacity: 120
Price: 5,000 credits
Use: Heavy infantry
Designer: Warmac Nerblood
Manufacture: The Blood Gorge
Description:
The L4-Heavy Slugthrower is an enormous version of the Sluggun. Of much larger size and weight, the Heavy Slugthrower fires powerful armor-piercing fist-sized bolts at the enemy with a staggering rate of fire.

The L4-Heavy Slugthrower is generally used for anti-infantry or fire support roles, also known as the "Back Breaker" or the "Bruiser" by the crew who have to carry it because of its great weight - but also because of the heavy punishment it can deal out to the enemy. It fires a round considerably larger than that of the standard Sluggun shell, with more propellant and longer range and higher stopping power, making it capable of destroying light vehicles. Because of its high rate of fire, jamming is often a problem. Like all Slug weapons, Heavy Slugthrower require regular maintenance. It is seldomly seen outside military organizations.

The most modern version of the Heavy Slugthrower in wide spread use is the Legions. The weapon goes through rounds very quickly using either a disintegrating belt or 120 round high capacity pod magazine.

Use: Infantrymen
Designer: Kermec Blackflame
Manufacture: Burning Heart Forges
Description:
T87-Inferno guns are flamethrower weapons, unleashing a liquid incendiary chemical that bursts into flames as it leaves the weapon. Similar flame-based weapons have been used by several races and armies. They are valued for their ability to destroy many enemies at once, regardless of any protective cover. Both flamers and the more compact hand flamers are considered assault weapons due to their relatively short range.

Official Name: Meltagun
Common Name: fusion guns, melters, cookers
Ammunition: Main Battery
Magazine Capacity/Clip Capacity: 12 shots
Price: 14,000 credits
Use: Anti-armor units
Designer: Bhergav Burnpyre
Manufacture: Burning Heart Forges
Description:
Melta Weapons are heat-based weapons which work by sub-atomic agitation of the air. Targets on the receiving end are heated to the point of being vaporised. The effect on flesh is fearsome to say the least, while vehicles can be reduced to molten slag. Most melta weapons use highly pressurized pyrum-petrol gases with a two part injection system which forces the gases into a molecular state, which will vaporise just about anything. Unfortunately, due to the high power consumption and range dissipation, the weapon is only effective over very short distances, but anything caught in the blast is likely to be destroyed.

Although short-ranged and slow to fire, they are prized for their power against armoured vehicles. Besides the roar of the explosive vaporising of the target's moisture, melta weapons themselves make little noise when firing. Given their fairly quiet and very effective nature, infiltrating parties of Draconian's make use of melta weapons to destroy enemy vehicles before they get a chance to fight on the battlefield.

Description:
A Lightning Claw is a Draconian invented weapon, it is a piston-driven pincer comprising of two to three snapping blades. These blades are sheathed and surrounded by an energy field that disrupts solid matter and can effortlessly ignore any armour, but cannot defeat mass effect shields as easily. It is also large and slow in combat, and so the bearer must be willing to take damage before they can strike back.

Frag Missiles are designed to explode on impact with any surface, raking the immediate area with lethal shrapnel. Primarily an anti-infantry weapon, it can be used against light vehicles with some success. Frag Missiles are often ineffective against heavy infantry.

Krak Missiles are primarily designed as anti-vehicle weapons, Krak Missiles contain a high strength, low blast shaped charge, causing massive damage to anything it hits with minimal collateral damage. Also very effective against heavy infantry, bunkers and other armored targets.

Other Types: Missiles are extremely versatile and can potentially carry any conceivable type of payload. Examples include: Anti-Plant, Virus, Vortex, Smoke, Gas, Tanglefoot, Haywire, Stasis, Plasma and Photon Flash.

Magazine Capacity/Clip Capacity: 1 rocket

Use (Who Uses It): Anti-armor infantry
Designer: Grey Ironhide
Manufacture: Iron Forge
Description:
The standard Imperial Missile Launcher has a built in targeting device and is fired from the shoulder. It is a single round weapon, and cannot be fired on the move. Standard Legionnaire doctrine is for one Draconian to carry aim and fire the missile launcher, whilst a second Draconian carries the ammunition and re-loads the weapons. A well-drilled fire team can maintain a formidable rate of fire, enough to daunt the bravest of tank commanders. Draconian Oldbloods and Scar-veterans generally carry their own ammunition, being easily strong enough to hold the missile launcher in one hand whilst re-loading with the other. Note also that whilst an Legionnaire guardsman will generally fire from a kneeling or prone position, Draconian enhancements grant them a superior aim even when standing.

HK-Jet Pack equippable


Official Name: NS-Cast V2
Common Name: Aegis Armour, Crusader Armor
Weight: 60 Ibs

Though Aegis Armour provides the same level of protection as suits worn by the Space Legions, the lack of a Black Carapace means the wearer cannot fully interface with the armour and so lacks the same strength enhancement and other advanced life-support features found in other Draconian power armour. Still, Aegis Armour, does improve the user's strength and allows them to better handle heavy weapons more easily.

The 'Sabbat' Pattern Draconian Helm has been a standard part of this power armour since the Sorian wars. In addition to a comm-link and rebreather unit for limited operation in a total vacuum, the helmet includes a full-spectrum filtering and psycho-oculal buffering to assist the younger Draconian mind from being rendered insensible by battlefield conditions.

Being made of plasteel with added protection of cermite weave bonds, further enhanced by composite material like Armaplas. Aegis Armour, is relatively lighter than most suits, providing excellent protection and increased strength at negligible loss to the user's mobility and agility.

Faction: Draconian Imperium
Designer: Sigfred Ironcast
Manufacture: Iron Forge Works
Price: 2,500 credits

This model dates from the Sorian wars waged close to the galactic core. Many of these worlds were the Draconian Homeworlds, which were not pleased to find themselves the object of galactic conquest. The Draconian's independent and stubborn nature along with the conditions of the fighting spurred the creation of this new armour type first by the Sorians then was copied and reversed engineered for Draconian forces. This armour was ideal as it offered Draconian's even further protection and survivability.

Official Name: NS-Rock V5
Common Name: Rock Hide, Crusader armor
Weight: 130 Ibs

The helmet was a completely new design, the basic shape inspired by the sweeping front of the V.III. In V.IV and later versions the helmet is much more flexible, and moves with the wearer's head faster. This represented the constructors increasing experience with neural connector gear and the new materials which flooded into the Draconian workshops as the Sorian war progressed.

V.5 armour was envisioned at the time to be the ultimate and final type of Legionary armour, able to offer the best protection in a variety of conditions. Many of the Marine Legions were entirely or partially re-equipped with it, although the order of which Legions received the armour would shortly prove to be of significance.

Crusade Armour is fully plated in plasteel, and the legs are also power armoured. The plates are arranged into articulated hoops, for increased maneuverability. The chest coils, which were kept on the outside of the armour plating on Version 2 armour for cooling purposes, have now been placed on the inside of the chest plates and exterior, so that they are better protected, thanks to more efficient cooling mechanisms.

Price: 3,000 Credits

Technical secrets recovered on newly conquered worlds allowed the forges on the planet Ridrick to develop this more efficient armour, improving the quality of protection and reducing the suit's weight at the same time. Improved armoring of the power cables allowed the main arm and chest supply to be safely relocated to the exterior of the armour, while the use of new material reduced the size and number of cables. Amazingly enough it was he Ash'n Smoke Forge's of Ridrick of the Ash legions that had a great hand in creation of the armor, with help of the Iron Forge Works of the Iron Legion.

Official Name: NR-Corvus V.8
Common Name: Corvus Armour
Weight: 130 Ib

The V.8 features clean, sleek lines, due to the routing of power cables under the exterior armour plate (abdominal covering of these was one of the suggestions made by the Ash Legion) and the increased sloping of the helmet design. The initial suits did indeed use the ablative technique pioneered in prior suits, as paucity of supplies during the Sorian wars meant that some sacrifices still had to be made, even with a new armour design.

Material: Plasteel, and ceramite bonds
Faction: Draconian Imperium
Designers: Bazack Steelscale & Tragin Greysmoc
Manufacture: Iron Forge Works & Ash'n Smoke Forge's
Price: 8,000 credits

The V.8 suit prototype design was field-tested by Legionaries of the Ash Legion, whose experiences and comments resulted in improved design features in the finalized armour mark. V.8 armour offered no better protection-levels than the V.5, but incorporated more efficient internal systems where power-routing and auto-sense were concerned. Power systems were given back-up redundancies with no increase in weight, while both olfactory and auditory sensors were improved. Additionally, the armour featured the best stealth capabilities of all power armour marks so far designed, as well as a new method of compartmentalizing components that allowed them to be swapped out with pieces from previous Versions with ease. The finalised armour Version was named Coruvs Armour in honor of Corvus Darkstar, Tribunes march of the Ash legion.

Official Name: Dreadnought Armour
Common Name: Iron Hides
Weight: 290 Ibs

Like marine armor, Dreadnought Armour is fully enclosed with life-support functions, and includes an array of sensors including radiation monitors, biological detectors and self-diagnostic scanners. Dreadnought Armour also incorporates many more auxiliary systems than normal armour, including motion sensors and threat detectors. The armour's sensorium, based upon tendril sensors, links directly into the wearer's own awareness (adaptive surgery is necessary to make this possible). The sensorium allows the wearer to use a vast number of scanners and detectors without conscious thought. Sensoriums can also be linked together, allowing every Warband member to see exactly the same view of the battle as his comrades, though often only the legionnaires suit will broadcast pict-signals. Also comes with autosense uplinks and suit-integrated targeting systems along with that the helmet is fitted with automatic sensory devices developed on Tyranus, this allows the wearer to see and hear as though not wearing a helmet, and, since all information is transmitted to a computer in the helmet before being transmitted directly to the wearer's brain via neural link, blinding lights and deafening noises can be muted so that they don't harm the wearer. The wearer is also able to see in the infra-red and ultra-violet spectrum, images can be zoomed in and magnified while noises can be enhanced. The suit is also equipped with an accelerator that allowed the user to make quick movements across terrain, leaving a trail of flames in his path.

Like most power armour of other races, Dreadnought Armour suits have an outer shell of ceramite-bonded plates powered by electrically-motivated fibre bundles, it also benefits from a shield system called a 'kinetic barrier', Kinetic barriers are repulsive mass effect fields projected from tiny emitters implanted into the wing's of the wearer, allowing them to shield themselves while freeing up their hands. These shields safely deflect small objects traveling at rapid velocities. This affords protection from bullets and other dangerous projectiles. Plates of heavy plasteel further armour the ceramite sections, especially on the front of the suit. This extra armouring provides a level of protection that is far superior to Heavy Titan Armor; not even a ML-77 Missile Launcher will penetrate the suit's breastplate. It also contributes to the immense weight of the suit, making the wearer less maneuverable and slower. External adamantium ribs also help support this weight, while the inclusion of suspensors help the suit carry heavier support weapons.

Price: 150,000 Credits

Dreadnought Armour is the toughest and most powerful form of personal armour Draconian have ever developed. The scarcity and expense to maintain Dreadnought Armour suits means they are available only to the elite troops from the scar-veteran companies of the Legions. Only the members of the 1st Legions of the Khan-Tarr have full access to the rare and extremely resilient Dreadnought armour. All suits have built in teleportation devices which allow them to deploy anywhere via deep strike, although more often they are deployed using Land Raiders. Squads consist of a Terminator sergeant and between 4 and 9 Dreadnoughts.

Official Name: NR-"Gekko" V9
Common Name: Gekko, CamoScreen, Gekko Camo
Weight: 80 Ib

Gekko Camo is a form of smart camouflage that can, within moments of coming into contact with almost any surface, replicate both its pattern and texture. Preset patterns and textures can both be loaded and saved to memory for later use. It applies thermal technology to regulate the temperature of the suit to better blend with what the suit is mimicking, allowing the user to stay as hidden as possible even under thermal imaging. A muscle suit is also built in, increasing the physical strength of the user somewhat. It was inspired by the mimicking abilities of the Lizard indigenous to Tyranus, hence the name.

Material: Artificial muscle fibers, made of synthetics, in the suit can withstand chops from a sword making even cutting the wearer in half unlikely because of sensors stretching between the interior and the surface of the suit comparable to a neural network that, upon detecting an impact, will instantaneously react by automatically contracting and diffusing the damage.

History/Description:
An adaptation of the V.8 improving on it's stealth capabilities even further, it is a marvelous and recently developed technology and is primarily used by and for the Ash Legions.

Official Name: NR-"Hellfire" V10
Common Name: Doom bringer, Cursed
Weight: 130Ib

The NR Version 10 is the first major upgrade of the system and introduced two revolutionary technologies for battlefield purposes: Improved energy shielding, providing the user added protection against even plasma weapons, and with these kinetic shielding as with all energy shielding, it is very good at absorbing damage from projectile weaponry. and the ability to link a Draconian and a AI together to provide the soldier instant intel in the field, along with other functions. In addition to major changes from the Version 8 and 9, hundreds of other technical improvements are incorporated into the Mark V: for example, the fusion packs used to power the suits are half again the size of their predecessors.

Material: The outer shell of the Hellfire armor is comprised of a fairly thick titanium alloy. This plating covers the chest, arms, hip, legs, calves, feet and hands. This alloy is very resilient, can take significant punishment, and is nearly impervious to small arms fire. While enough shots from armor piercing rounds will breach the outer shell, the suit can take a few glancing blows from them without compromising the armor. The outer shell of the all Hellfire suits is covered with a refractive coating to help disperse the heat experienced from energy weapons. However one or two direct hits from any Plasma weapon at close range will compromise the armor plating.

History/Description:
The battlesuit is constructed in overlapping layers. It is a sealed system, capable of extravehicular activity or operations in toxic atmosphere. It is hardened against EMP and radiation, and has filters that are completely effective at removing toxins and bacteria from local atmosphere.
The armor's outer shell is composed of a multilayer alloy of remarkable strength and has been augmented with a refractive coating capable of dispersing a limited amount of energy weapon strikes. Each Draconian being has a molecular fiber network called the nervous system within their brain. An upgrade to the standard Neural Interface is issued to all high ranking officers; another modified version of the neural lace is issued to all Scar-Veterans and Oldbloods within the Legions. This network translates electrochemical signals to digital code and routes them through an interface connection at the rear of the skull. Through this interface, the user's thoughts command the armor's movement and weapons; and input from the on board sensors comes directly to the user's mind. The synthesis of machine and mind is so fast that it is almost impossible to chart reaction time. Version ten was created and based of the strengths of Dreadnought armor combining it with the lightness and maneuverability of lighter versions.

Official Name: T7- "Fire Drake"
Common Name: Fire Drake, T7's
Weight: 62 ton

T7-"Fire Drake" take the form of a large tank which is conventional apart from its distinguishing features: twin barrels, four sets of tracks, auto-targeting systems, and able to attach an array of weapons. Secondary systems, such as life support and electrical systems run from the internal generator.

They are also characterized by their extreme power, toughness and sluggishness. In a direct, head-on confrontation, they were always the most powerful conventional tank (or ground unit) of their time if not outright the most powerful tank of all.

Material: The T7 is very robust with a reinforced cast plasteel hull and twin turrets, likely to withstand most incoming fire, especially on the forward facing armour. The side armour is similarly heavy, but rear armour is much lighter. This allows the engines to move the chassis without overloading, overheating or overstraining. The common Ridrick Alpha pattern of chassis is used throughout Imperium vehicles but the design, however, is more for performance, not comfort and it is cramped, smelly and noisy within the vehicle.

Price: 10,000 credits
History/Description:
The T7- "Fire Drake" Tank is a very basic and easily replicable design that stresses strength and versatility while sacrificing comfort and ease of use for efficiency. The T7- "Fire Drake" is the primary battle tank of the Draconian military. Large hyrdraulic tread pods enable it to traverse rugged terrain, giving it a unique advantage amongst other armored vehicles. Armaments include a 120mm anti-tank weapon, or Auto cannon, as well as a turret-mounted .50 caliber heavy Fire Drake machine gun. Some would go so far as to say that it is the most successful tank design in history, and it is safe to say that it is the most numerous battle tank by far in the Imperium. It has little in the way of advanced technology but can operate in any type of terrain and environment. It is also quite slow, but its engine will run on just about anything put in it, allowing it to work for extended periods away from supply depots, although it does have a reduced efficiency with poor fuel.

Official Name: T5- "Chimera"
Common Name: The Chimera
Weight: 342 tonnes

The Chimera is armed with three twin-linked Heavy Slugers, two autocannons, a Gauss Cannon, a Searchlight, and Smoke Launchers. It may be upgraded with a Hellfire Missile and pintle-mounted Heavy Stubber/Storm Slugger. It may also add two extra sponsons, each with one Autocannon and one twin-linked Heavy Bolter or twin-linked Heavy Flamer. It may instead choose to remove its sponsons in order to reinforce its side armour.

Material: Uses similar reinforced cast plasteel hull and twin turrets, with added titanium plating.
Faction: Draconian Imperium
Designer: Bazack Steelscale
Manufacture: Iron Forge Works
Price: 15,000 credits
History/Description:
A Chimera is a derivation of the famous Fire Drake, modified to carry the Gauss Cannon instead of a AutoCannon. The power of the Gauss Cannon, combined with the armour of a super-heavy, has established the Chimera as the pinnacle of Imperium siegecraft. Many Imperium tribunes would be willing to exchange two regiments for a single Chimera ; such is the reputation of this tank. Indeed, Imperial combat doctrine holds an honoured place for the Chimera.

Official Name: T1- "Stormlord"
Common Name: The Stormlord
Weight: 230 ton

The Stormlord's secondary armanent consists of two sponson-mounted Heavy Flamers/Heavy Slugerthrower, two sponson-mounted autocannons and a frontal Twin-linked Heavy Slugthrower. It is often equipped with the pintle-mounted Storm Slugger/or Hellfire missile. Just like the Chimera, it is always equipped with the Searchlight and Smoke Launchers.


The Stormlord is able to redirect the power normally supplied to the engine to double the Vulcan Mega-Sluger rate of fire. It is also rare among other Draconian armor that is uses leg carriers to help it traverse almost any terrain.

Material: Uses similar reinforced cast plasteel hull and twin turrets, with added titanium plating.
Faction: Draconian Imperium
Designer: Bazack Steelscale
Manufacture: Iron Forge Works
Price: 9,000 credits
History/Description:
The Stormlord is a rarer variant of the Fire Drake because it is a variant that is not designed to hunt Armor but instead geared towards the destruction of infantry, and with a Vulcan Mega-Sluger, it can administer to that need with a vicious hail of fire. Although it may lack the heavier guns on its brethren, it's normally deployed alongside the Armor Hunters as "pest control", its massive amount of anti-infantry firepower is the bane of light troops everywhere but its most widely regarded ability is troop transport of which its older counterparts cannot achieve.

Official Name: T10- "Shadowswords"
Common Name: The Shadowswords, Destroyer
Weight: 316 tonnes

Much of the tank is taken up with the internal capacitors required to fire the duel Railgun and is also equipped with advanced logic engines and targeting systems to make each shot count.

For defence, the Shadowsword has the sponson armament of Twin-linked Heavy Slugthrower/Heavy Flamers as well as two Autocannons. In addition to this, many crews install pintle-mounted Storm Slugger, an extra Twin-linked Heavy Hells Fury Riot-Guns and/or Hellfire missiles. Finally, all Shadowswords are equipped with Smoke Launchers to increase survivability, and with a Searchlight for night-fighting.

Several Swadowswords are known to swap the sponson weaponry for improved side armour. On others, the sponson Lascannons are replaced with targeters to ensure that Gauss Cannon shots will not go to waste. Finally, some Swadowswords maximise firepower with 2 extra sponsons (4 in total).

Material: Uses similar reinforced cast plasteel hull with added titanium plating.

History/Description:
The Shadowsword is an Imperial Draconian titan-hunter super-heavy vehicle. It is designed on the same technology as the Fire Drake with the exception of its armament; a super Twin-linked Railgun. Each shot is sufficiently powerful to shear off a Mechs arm or leg but requires a good deal of time to recharge. Because the Shadowsword can do such a damaging blast, it is only produced on Forge Worlds. Each super-heavy tank is sent to an armored regiment where fighting enemy Arm Forts is a large possibility. The Destroyer is most effective against enemy armour and as such is usually held at the rear battle lines where it is used as a form of sniper tank, as the Destroyer has a very long range.

Official Name: Hydra Flak Tank
Common Name: AA Guns, HFT's
Weight: 40 tons

The Hydra is a specialized mobile anti-air vehicle often seen defending important sites and columns from air assaults. Its autocannons are controlled by advanced tracking and targeting equipment and an automated turret, meaning it will track enemy aircraft with little difficulty. This, combined with a high rate of fire, often means the aircraft is doomed. Demand for Hydras always exceeds supply and they are often seen deployed with separate tank units. Many artillery (especially Basilisk) units have a Hydra or two permanently attached.

Material: Armor plating of hard steel and iron encasing.

History/Description:
The Basilisk is the main line artillery piece of Imperium Legion regiments throughout the Imperium. It is armed with an Earthshaker Tri-linked Rail gun and counts as self-propelled artillery. The main task of the Basilisk is to fire artillery barrages to support front-line units. They are directed by companies far forwards, often on the front lines, or by other high ranking Imperial Guard officers. Most shots fired are High Explosives, but other shells such as Smoke Shells, Incendiary Shells and Illumination Shells are sometimes used. Its high strength and range make it deadly for bombarding enemy positions and can be upgraded to fire from behind cover, making it an invisible killer.

Official Name: LV7- "Tauros Rapid Assault Vehicle"
Common Name: Tauros, TRAV
Weight: 5 tons
Technology: The Tauros employed by the Elysian drop regiments are further adapted to be lightweight and thus deployable from a Dragoon. The Standard Tauros is a 4x4 with either a dorsale mounted Heavy Flamer or Auxilary grenade launcher, manned by a gunner. All Tauros are equiped with Galvanic motor technology allowing them to press ahead even after taking damage to their traction.

Those used by the Ash Legions are built around and optical camo engine: Invisible, very fast, long vision range, thermal detection equipment for spotting stealth units, and a four passenger capacity. For these reasons they make ideal transport for Optical camo warriors, A.K.A units wearing Gekko armor.

Official Name: Tricera -T2
Common Name: Tricera, T2 carrier
Weight: 70 tons
Technology:At its most basic level the Tricera-T2 is an armoured carrier with repulsor technology and designed to cope with any terrain, and travel over water, as protect its passengers from harm. It is such a basic design, constructed from almost any material and powered by any semi-combustible material, that little has changed throughout its 10,000 year history. Such is its resiliency that damaged sustained in battle can often be repaired in the field by the crew themselves. It also has the ability to cloak making it invisible to enemy radar and optical sensors.

Material: The most common form of armouring is a bonded ceramite layer over a cast plasteel hull reinforced with Durasteel plates. However, other materials have been known to be used instead, from composite carbon compounds to conventional hardened steel.

History/Description:
The Tricera is a tracked armoured troop produced by the Draconian Imperium. The military value of such a vehicle was discovered, and soon each planet in the small Draconian empire of united clans had its own customised versions of the Tricera, fitted with varying weapons. The earliest evidence of the Tricera in combat was at Torben's World in battle against the indigenous alien population. During the attack, three hundred Tricera were deployed to the largest alien city. The speed of the assault meant the xenos had no idea of the coming of the humans and had not prepared any defences. The Triceras poured their firepower into the flimsy structures and then deployed nearly three thousand warriors. The city was destroyed and, with the alien presence removed, the colonisation proceeded easily. The news of this victory spread and the use of the Rhino was adopted more and more by other planets.

Official Name: MT-9 "REX"
Common Name: The Rex,
Weight: 40 tons

Once interred within the MT-9 "Rex", the Legionnaire cannot leave the metal womb and is destined for a life of endless battle until destroyed. Some are so ancient their memories may extend back to the founding of their Clan and its earliest history. Along with countless life systems, it also includes an array of sensors including radiation monitors, biological detectors and self-diagnostic scanners.

The armour suit also comes with sensorium, much like Dreadnoughts, based upon the same tendril sensor technology, which links directly into the wearer's own awareness (adaptive surgery is necessary to make this possible). The sensorium allows the wearer to use a vast number of scanners and detectors without conscious thought. Sensoriums can also be linked together, allowing every Warband member to see exactly the same view of the battle as his comrades. It also is equipped with thermal imaging, and night vision.

Material: Rex are armoured with ceramite and adamantium, their muscles are formed of electro-fibre bundles and magna-coils. They are usually armed with weapons to suit a particular role, such as destroying other heavy armoured vehicles.

A MT-9 "Rex" is a large, walking tank, or Battlesuit, which carries both powerful guns and lethal close combat weaponry, armoured to withstand all but the most powerful of enemy firepower and often relied on by Space Legion forces to tear an opening in enemy defenses. Each MT-9 "Rex" contains a living being, permanently interfaced with the machine through a form of mind impulse unit. MT-9 "Rex" are surprisingly agile, able to walk and balance with the ease of a living creature.

The pilots within MT-9 "Rex" are Legionnaires who have suffered mortal wounds in battle, maimed and crippled beyond recovery or even their outstanding regenerative abilities - instead of being mercifully killed, the greatest heroes are instead given what is considered an honour of continuing to serve the Khan-Tarr past their normal life. The MT-9 "Rex" can be armed with a wide range of weaponry, both ranged and close combat. These include either one or two REX Close Combat Weapons, usually in the form of power claws, or twin-linked versions of autocannons, or Rail guns, heavy Fire Drake machine guns or individual multi-meltas, light Gauss cannons or assault cannons. Built into the combat weapons is often either a storm Sluger or heavy flamer and often come equipped with a missile launcher for Hellfire Strike missiles. They can come in all kinds of modules and sizes.

Official Name: MT-XV8 "Crisis"
Common Name: The Crisis
Weight: 2.5 tonnes

The XV8 is the standard-issue suit used by the Iron Legion, though other variants exist, the most common being the Broadside Battlesuit. The Crisis suit is packed with advanced technology, including a jetpack, recoil absorbers and targeting sensors. Information gathered from the Crisis' sensor suite can be transmitted to command units, providing them with updated battlefield intelligence. A nanocrystaline alloy armour is used, giving the suit superior protection while keeping weight at a minimum. Although the armour provides superior protection against most small arms, it is no defence against heavier weapons such assault cannons and autocannons which penetrate right through. The suit also has three hardpoints that allow it to accept any combination of weaponry, support systems and wargear.

The XV8 Crisis Battlesuit is an advanced piece of Draconian technology. These Battlesuits are issued to Scar-veteran Warriors in order to provide the Draconian military with a highly-mobile weapons platform.

Official Name: MT-XV-88 "Terminator""
Common Name: The Terminator, Broadside Battlesuits
Weight: 3.8 tonnes

Broadside Battlesuits are only issued to Scar-veterans who have gained sufficient experience piloting Crisis Battlesuits. The jetpacks commonly found on Crisis suits is replaced with twin-linked Railguns, one of the most powerful anti-tank weapons available in the Draconian arsenal. Other armament includes either a twin-linked Smart Missile System or twin-linked heavy Slugthrowers Rifles, or Storm Sluger, along with a single Battlesuit support system.

Being one of the most well protected units in the Draconian arsenal, there are reports of Broadside battlesuits surviving direct hits from autocannon and Anti-armor fire, and they provide as much protection as a suit of Dreadnought Armour, but unlike the Dreadnought, the Draconian are able to manufacture such heavy suits in larger quantities.

Broadsides tend to be encountered supporting larger Draconian formations, where one or more three-member teams are tasked with providing fire support for entire Warbands regiments. Occasionally, a single Broadside is tasked with providing support for a smaller Draconian force.

The Broadside Battlesuit or XV-88 is the heaviest variant of the Crisis Battlesuit. Used by the Draconian's, these Battlesuits design is a effective compromise between offensive firepower, defensive protection, and tactical maneuverability.

Official Name: F50-Dragoons
Common Name: Dragoons
Weight: 15 tons
Length" 25.5m
Wingspan: 20.9m
Height: 6.8m

With advanced flight control and sensor gear, the Dragoons contains technology comparable to those found in Space Legion Vehicles, limiting their construction to sufficiently-advanced planets such as Forge Worlds. In flight, the aircraft utilizes twin vectored engines in order to not only vertically take of and land, but also hover in mid-air, allowing for greater accuracy in deploying its sixteen passengers.

The engines can be sealed, and an on-board oxygen supply employed, for when operating in hostile environments. Common methods for deploying from a Valkyrie range from simply jumping off (if the height from the ground is low enough) to fast-roping and rappelling. When unable to operate that low to the ground, deploying via high-altitude jumps using grav-chutes are possible, though highly dangerous.

Material: Plasteel, and light metals
Faction: Draconian Imperium
Designer: Grabreck Ironfist
Manufacture: Iron Forge Legion
Price: 37,000 credits

The Dragoons are able to fit a variety of roles depending on they load out.

The Scavenger is operated by the Imperium Navy and attached to Imperium Legion units, particularly Drop Regiments lacking heavy armour and artillery support. The Scavenger is operated by a crew of two, a pilot to fly the craft and a weapons operator to aim and fire its armament. A single Scavenger will typically fly in support of a flight Dragoons with their variable weapon configurations allowing a variety of missions to be fulfilled: anti-tank, infantry suppression or bombing enemy strongpoints. They often remain after the Dragoon's passengers have disembarked and the transports retreated to act in a direct air support role, aiding the drop troops in tougher fire fights. Although they can mount extra fuel tanks to accompany Dragoons on long-range operations, this does reduce their weapons payload.


The Vendetta Heavy Gunship are Dragoons attached to Imperium Legion units which, in addition to the increased armor, are equipped with three Twin-linked Linked Railguns, and used as a tank hunter after dropping off any unit being transported by it. Furthermore, it still retains the ability to mount 2 Heavy Fire Drake Machinegun door guns. It may also replace the two hardpoint mounted Twin-linked Rail gun on its wings for two Hellstrike Missiles. Despite their impressive firepower, Vendetta Gunships lack the flexibility of Vulture Gunships, which are chosen more often for deep-range attack, strafing and urban assault missions.

The Dragoons Sky Talon is a newer variant of the standard Dragoons airborne assault carrier. A support aircraft used for heavy lifting in combat theatres, the Sky Talon is armed for self-defense and to assist the other assault carriers as they clear drop zones of the enemy. Standard armament is a nose mounted Heavy Fire Drake Machinegun turret and two Hellstrike Missiles under the wings, which can replaced with two Rocket pods. Despite its armament, it is not usual for Sky Talons to be used in a battlefield role. Rather, they deliver their heavy cargo, typically a T7- "Fire Drake" or two Drop Sentinels, then quickly exit.

Official Name: F90-ThunderDrakes
Common Name: ThunderDrakes
Weight: 14 tonnes empty
Length: 14.2m
Wingspan: 16.06m
Height: 3.5m with landing gear down

The ThunderDrake is a tough aircraft to destroy, built around an armoured superstructure and cockpit. Twin F122v afterburning turbofans gives the ThunderDrake a good top speed in atmospheric flight, while a rocket booster engine allows it to operate in the vacuum of space and for fast take-offs when mounted on ground-based hydraulic ramps. The ThunderDrake should not be confused with a true "star-fighter" like the Raptor though, as its space capabilities are used primarily when deploying from an orbiting spacecraft into the atmosphere or likewise returning.

Quad nose-mounted Autocannons serve as the primary dogfighting and anti-infantry weapons, while a pair of twin-linked Railguns are normally used to engage enemy ground vehicles. Four pylons, two mounted underneath each wing, allow the fighter to carry up to four extra fuel tanks, Bombs, Hellstrike Missiles or, more rarely, air-to-air missiles. It can also mount additional equipment.

Material: Plasteel, and light metals
Faction: Draconian Imperium
Designer: Grabreck Ironfist
Manufacture: Iron Forge Legion
Price: 39,000 credits

The ThunderDrakes primarily serves as an air superiority fighter, given the task of hunting down enemy bombers or engaging enemy fighters in order to establish air superiority over the battlefield. However one of the chief advantages of the design is its versatility, allowing it to fulfill other types of missions. Thunderbolt fighters frequently serve as high altitude escort fighters for flights of Marauder Bombers. They can also be adapted to serve as low level fighter-bombers, night fighters and reconnaissance aircraft.

Official Name: F20-Lightning
Common Name: Lightning
Weight: 10 tonnes empty
Length: 10.8m
Wingspan: 13.75m
Height: 3.5m with landing gear down

The Lightning uses a swept-wing design and twin F100-XB afterburning turbofans to give it superior speed and better rate of climb and dive compared to the ThunderDrake, although it is lighter, less rugged and more demanding on maintenance crews. Like the ThunderDrake, it also features a rocket booster engine which allows for quick take-offs when using a "fast-launch" ramp and for limited operational capability in space, although it is not a true "star-fighter" like the Raptor.

Standard armament for the Lightning is a long barrelled ventral-mounted Autocannon and twin-linked Railguns on the wing tips. Four wing hardpoints allows it to carry up to four Hellstrike/Hellfire Missiles. Other standard systems includes a pair of Parallax tracking augers located in the nose section, while many will mount additional equipment.

The main role of the aircraft is to engage enemy craft and establish air-superiority over a battlefield, with a secondary mission of providing air escort for Marauder Bombers. For this reason they are often based on orbiting ships or forward air bases, where their rocket booster allows them to quickly take off and engage enemy air forces. Ground-based Lightnings can also benefit from hydraulic "fast-launch" ramps which, in combination with their rocket booster engine, provides better acceleration and faster take-off time than conventional VTOL craft. Standard practice has three to four Lightnings so poised in a constant state of readiness. Although not their primary function, Lightnings may also act as a ground attack aircraft, with free license to attack targets of opportunity.

Material: Plasteel, and light metals

The Lightning is mainly used by the Imperium Navy for establishing air superiority due to its increased maneuverability over the ThunderDrake. It is often seen and heard plummeting from orbit or being scrambled from naval bases.

Official Name: P3-Marauder Bomber
Common Name: Marauder
Weight: 41 tonnes empty
Length: 19.2m
Wingspan: 24.6m
Height: 4.8m with landing gear down

Within its heavy armoured superstructure the Marauder Bomber carries an internal bomb bay which can carry up to 6000lbs of explosives. At maximum capacity it can carry up to twelve Bombs or six Heavy Bombs, while four wing mounted pylons allow it to carry up to twelve additional Bombs. For additional firepower it also carries a pair of twin-linked Railguns in the nose section, while two sets of twin-linked turret-mounted Heavy Slugthrowers, one in the tail section and the other atop the fuselage, serve as defensive armament. Instead of regular bombs the internal bomb bay may carry two Hellstorm bombs, large incendiary devices which convert an area into a destructive inferno. Like other Imperium aircraft, Marauder bombers can also receive further upgrades.

The Marauder Bomber, with a long range and good maximum payload for its size, is the workhorse of the Imperium Navy. They are often based on orbiting spacecraft or, if in a prolonged campaign, on naval airbases established on the ground. Thanks to their capacious fuel tanks and powerful engines, these bases are located far from the frontline, even on another continent.
While capable of fulfilling a variety of roles, they are often used for one of three mission types:

Strategic bombing: long-range attacks on enemy cities and institutions while operating at high altitudes beyond most anti-aircraft weapons ranges and with Thunderbolt escort. While successful in this role, the Marauder is considered to have too small of a payload to be a truly effective strategic bomber unless in great number.

Free range interdiction: squadrons seek targets of opportunity such as supply dumps and convoys, which have been identified by aerial or orbital reconnaissance, before exfiltrating under cover from friendly fighters. While these missions are not performed in concert with ground troops, they are seen as the most effective use of Marauder bombers.

Dedicated ground attack and support: Very close assistance of friendly ground forces by engaging specific targets on the front lines. Seen as the riskiest type of mission, as the bombers must fly at very low altitudes and risk friendly fire. Though adequate, the Marauder is considered to lack the appropriate weaponry for a dedicated ground attack role.

Close support missions have the added difficulty of identifying targets in a constantly-changing battlefield situation, which Imperium tribunes solve in a variety of manners. Some regiments use previously-assigned visual markers, such as weapons fire or coloured smoke, to designate enemy targets. Others incorporate forward air controllers to guide aircraft onto the targets. These Imperial Navy personnel, often experienced pilots themselves, will ride in communications vehicles that allow them to talk directly to the pilots overhead. A third method involves a coordinated withdrawal of ground forces prior to an air strike, decreasing the chance of any friendly fire. This is however a dangerous tactic as it requires disengaging from the enemy.

Height: 100
Specification: Cruiser
Faction: The Draconian Imperium
Range: 100 lightyears
Speed: 0.65 the speed of light.
Mass Zero Capable: Yes
Power Plant: 6x RX-40-08 Rocket Engines
Armament:
The Behemoth's four Phalanx Anti-Missile's are omni-directional, it was the only Draconian ship with long-range cruise torpedoes, and warheads, which makes it capable of dealing significant damage to priority targets from long range. This can be extremely useful in attacking Orbital defenses from a safe distance. As with other faction's Cruisers, this ship has excellent star-fighter defenses, thanks to it's six quad-autocannon's. It is also armed with the powerful Gauss Cannon. However, its six Gauss cannons are not turret-mounted and afixed to it's front, and so the entire ship must turn to face its target before it can fire the Gauss Cannons, the combined firepower is easily enough to cripple a Dreadnought class ship and annihilate anything smaller in a single head on hit.

History/Description:
The Behemoth is a particularly large and dangerous Draconian Cruiser that was first seen during the early days of Sorian wars, when they took a terrible toll on the Sorian fleets. Like its smaller cousin (the Terror Ship class) the Behemoth is built on the salvaged hulks of destroyed cruisers. Behemoths, however, are specifically built from the hulks of ships armed with Nova Cannons, the parts of which have been rigged up into a truly ingenious weapon: a launcher capable of being loaded with either torpedoes or bombardment canon shells. Behemoth class BattleCrusier are a favorite among tribunes's, who often take them as their flagship. This high status ensures that the Behemoth get some of the best weapons and crews in the Draconian fleet, second only to the Levitation's, making them even more powerful opponents in a battle.

Power Plant: RX-40-08 Rocket Engines
Armament:
The Terror Class is a Attack-craft Carrier for the Draconian. It is large, well armored, can store, repair, and refuel Draconian Attack-craft units, and is armed with two tubes and 10 Flank guns for self defense.

History/Description:
Terror Ships are a variant of the typical Draconian Kill Cruiser. Generally built long ago from from salvaged hulks like their cousins, Terror Ships forgo some of the usual broadside Heavy guns in favor of simply chopping large sections out of the hull to use as launch bays for Attack-Craft.

Primarily associated with defense of the Cyclops Cluster, a good example of Terror Ships in action was an attack on a small resupply base at Mirrobel. There, two Terror Ships and a half-dozen Escorts appeared, with the Terror Ships promptly launching Assault boats to attack the garrison. The arrival of the Sorian Dauntless Light Cruisers Abdiel and Uziel and a squadron of Firestorms was not enough to stop the attack, as even with their Attack Craft already engaged, the Draconian's still had enough firepower to drive off Mirrobel's would-be saviors.

History/Description:
The Onslaught is slow and ungainly, poorly-armored on most quarters, and lacks any sort of broadside firepower, making it only suitable for head-on attacks. As many an Enemy commander has found out, however, the Onslaught is very, very good at those head-on attacks, with incoming fire bouncing off its thick front armor as it charges in with its forward guns blazing. Hence why it has gained the nickname Thunderhead.

Nation Name: The Draconian Imperium (Or more Draconian Space)

Government: The Various clans Legions within Draconian Space are not currently untied but is currently ruled by on and off Waring tribal High legions. The High Legions are the four primary legions of the Draconian race and hold the highest form of organization within Draconian society. After the first Khan-Tarrs death, the leadership of the Draconian was split into the four large legions, each led by one of the four children of the Khan-tarr. They are named after the primus warband of each legion and each is led by an imperator, who are direct descendants of the Khan-Ur. The High Legions are the Ash Legion, Blood Legion, Flame Legion (now mockingly called the Gold Legion or the Burning Legion), and Iron Legion.


The Iron Legion: The Iron Legion is one of the Draconian's four High Legions. They pioneered the development of the engineer profession, and so are recognized for their mechanical prowess, preferring to overwhelm their opponents in battle with huge Siege weapons or mighty warships. Their capital is the Black Citadel, with Smodur the Unflinching as their imperator. They rule 10 systems that each of which are highly and well defended and densely populated.

The Burning Legion: The Flame Legion, also known as the Burning or Gold Legion by their foes due to their fierce characteristics and burning passion for conquest and tendency to leave burning ash in their wake, along with their excessive use of re-engineered technology and more "modern" tactics, is one of the four Draconian High Legions. Resident in the citadel of Hrangmer and the Flame Citadel, they are religious zealots, highly disciplined, trained, and are the masters of flame weaponry among the Draconians. The Legion during the time of the Khan-tarr where set out as the elite among the other Legion's and still hold significant advantage in discipline over other Legions. They have been known to make use genetic upgrades and they are easily one of the most powerful legions and control some 16 systems alone.

The Blood Legion: The Blood Legion is one of the four High Legions in Draconian society. They are known for their prowess in traditional battlefield combat. Bangar Ruinbringer is their imperator, and are also among one of the largest Legion's, controlling 18 systems currently and second most powerful only to the Flame Legion.

The Ash Legion: The Ash Legion is one of the four High Legions of the Draconians. They are famed for their spies, stalkers, and assassins. Their imperator is Malice Swordshadow. Being master's stealth and subterfuge, they are seen as dishonorable and cowards by the other larger legions. Their clans belonging to a sub-species of Draconians that are built much slighter and smaller they are well suited for their chosen tactics, and none can argue their effective, and if any of the other legions need something done that needs a more clandestine touch, the Ash legion are always the first to be called upon. They are smallest of the High Legion's controlling just 7 outer colony systems.

Stars: 50

Population: 518 billion

History:

Some generations had passed since the Sorain war's though the scars from that violent conflict had yet to fully heal, though they would never completely go away, the Draconian's did enter into a new age of exploration. Though the race as a whole still remained mostly fragmented. The larger tribes that had untied under the first Khan-tarr, Sil'izza, had formed the Draconian Imperium. Rising to power to control key systems in the galactic core. With new resources at their disposal, they began to build more ship's in order to chart and expand to further their power. During this time clan battles and wars became few as the race began to largely seek expansion as a means to install some momentary peace to the still weak race after the Sorian wars.

However during this time the Current Khan-tarr was killed, believed to have been assassinated by a rival. The Draconian Imperium soon descended into chaos and fragmentated into four larger powerful tribes that took advantage of the power vacuum. Giving the now splintered Draconian Imperium some form of order. However these tribes, or High legions as they have now been come to be called, are almost in constant warfare and have not known peace since the death of their Khan-tarr, they still do however hold control over a large region of space and wiser race's have learned to stay far from the chaotic space due to the constant fighting.
