Lilaethan means Maiden World in the Aeldari Lexicon. These worlds were originally chosen and terraformed to be paradise worlds by the ancient Aeldari at the height of their interstellar empire long before The Fall, and subsequently the birth of She who Thirsts, tore their realm apart and fractured the survivors of their race. It is on one such world that our story takes place.

Yonah, a small Maiden World with a fierce (but relatively few in number) Exodite population, has recently been seen by the Farseers of multiple Craftworlds. The Skeins of Fate show a grand threat to the planet, which will soon be beset by multiple enemies. The complex threads of possibility have seemed to coalesce over this tiny planet for reasons unknown. Yet, such dire warnings cannot be ignored. With the help of the Harlequins, an ancient and massive Webway Gate on Yonah's surface has been reactivated, and the psychic call for aid has gone out. Who will answer said call, and what terrible enemies are set against them? Perhaps more importantly; why Yonah? What ancient eldritch secret does this Maiden World hold that causes the Seer Councils and the Harlequins to be drawn to its defense? None yet know the answers; but of one thing we can be sure... the peace and balance of this paradise world will soon be shattered, for in the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war.



Heya'! Been gone from the Guild a long time, but this is something I wanted to do years ago, and just never had the time or drive. As luck would have it, I've got plenty of time on my hands now, and the drive is reignited! The general conceit of this roleplay is that we will be playing characters from all walks of Aeldari life, from Asuryani Aspect Warriors and Ghost Warriors to Ynnari weirdos, and even Exodite Dragon Riders! Very few Aeldari units will be off-limits, as I want the scale of this to be pretty large. The only exception is Drukhari, who are limited to working with the Ynnari! This Maiden World is in for some serious warfare!

Players are encouraged also to make a character that commands a small force, as once again the scale of this rp will be pretty big.




Below is a compilation of information about the location and current factions involved in the defense of the Maiden World!






All of these groups assemble on the Maiden World, prepared for a grand defense against an unknown (but now prepared-for) encroaching threat. Tensions run high, fists remain clenched, and a bizarre psychic anomaly hangs over the planet, tangling the threads of fate and making foresight all-but-impossible. However, it does not take a Farseer to tell that the battle to come will change Yonah forever.

Here is the sheet for my Drukhari character. I'll post a sheet about his entourage and Reaver force tomorrow.

Working on my own character currently. For my retinue, would a squad each of Wraithguard and Wraithblades be too much? I was also considering roping a Spiritseer into this as XO.

Caendoros is absolutely accepted! I love him! He'll be a good personality foil to the Warleader of the Ynnari forces I'm writing up! (Former Biel-Tan Autarch, so you can imagine the tension hah.)

One squad of each is perfectly fine, and a Spiritseer to help with the psychic burden of guiding them would seem prudent! I welcome the Spiritseer being fleshed out a bit, too! Not unlike Tundrafrog's character's spooky ass Wych Cult girlfriend! Well-developed NPCs make for good flavour!

Here are the sheets for Canedoros' entourage. Tried to keep it brief, they will essentially be NPCs.

Excellent! I'll add them to his CS when I move it over to the characters tab!

EDIT: Update! Still fleshing out my own character, and hoping for maybe another player or two, but I can work with our current group if nobody else is interested! I expect I'll have a long and busy next few days, so I'd wager Sunday will be the day I will finish up and make the opening IC post, with or without any new interest! I hope to see everyone's characters between now and then! I will still pop my head into the Guild to check notifications, so if there are any clarifying questions between now and Sunday, feel free to ask them!

Not sure yet. Was thinking maybe an Exarch of some kind leading a squad of aspect warriors or just a ranger.

Both are acceptable options!

Had some unexpected free time, so here we go!


I admit I have no idea how old a "young" Eldar should be, so I guessed. If anything else seems wrong or not lore-friendly let me know. Some of the history parts I left intentionally vague, if you want the details I can always PM them to you.

Ashelyth is great! Definitely accepted! 115 is pretty young for an Eldar but I don't think its a bad thing! Many who choose the Outcast Path do so at a young age so it works!

EDIT: Also, as expected my weekend has been quite busy, but tomorrow I should have time to get the proverbial ball rolling on this properly!

What's the deal with vehicles? For example, would a squad of Dire Avengers be allowed to have an accompanying Wave Serpent as transport?

Ashelyth would definitely love to have a speedy hover-jet-bike-thingy. Hard to do all the scouting on foot and whatnot.

Well, unfortunately my computer bricked (it was a long time coming honestly.)

Until I have a new one I'll have to put this on hold. A thousand apologies for the unintentional tease, guys...

Sound off if you'd like to be tagged once I've gotten a new laptop in the coming weeks and can continue.

@Lucian would you mind if @skygirland myself started posting in the IC thread in the meantime. I was gonna include a background post about Caendoros being called from Commorragh anyway and this way we can keep the momentum going.

Actually I'm totally okay with that! I'd intended to make the opening post, but given my limited access to a keyboard, you all are welcome to get the flow going!If there are any questions about specifics, feel free to DM!

I'll hold off on submitting a CS until we're sure this is getting off the ground.
