[OOC] Warhammer 40k: Kill-Team Epsilon, a Death=][=Watch RP - Currently closed!

[FinDragon]

I did already waste some time studying how an Apothecary works and ended up not playing one in the end. I don't think reading Fandom when I am unsure about something could prove too difficult when playing an assault marine.

[KabenSaal]

The Gene-Seed that all Space Marines are made from came from Superhuman males, and the transformation process enhances several factors not found in female bodies, which is why female space marines have never been a thing. They are anatomically impossible and trying will only result in an incredibly painful death for the woman involved.

Of course, Rule Zero says you can Fuck The Rules if you wish. Which is why I ask.

[Hank]

Looks like the answer is no.

[Zelosse]

Commencing maximum chill.

[Jb]

@KabenSaal That's fair, but the answer is no.

Right, hopefully everyone's had a bountiful and pleasant holiday season and is ready for some Xenocide.

I'll be getting this started on Monday, so anyone who hasn't submitted a sheet yet should do so before then, or join us later into the IC. Choice is yours.

Looking forward to it.

[Zelosse]

Why not now.. Heads need crushing. I personally wanna see what sorrow brings to the story.

Submitted for approval.

Aldaric Felbane

Name: Aldaric Felbane

Chapter: Angels of Absolution

Chapter Demeanour: The Angels of Absolution are basically Dark Angels that do not believe that the elimination of all Fallen is necessary to receive the Emperor's forgiveness. They believe they have already been absolved through their subsequent service or are no longer associated with those that betrayed their primarch, Lion El'Johnson, long ago. Hence, they do not consider themselves "Unforgiven," and may not necessarily leave a mission to go after the Fallen if the opportunity arises. Punishing all traitors is of course, still a priority, but these guys have put their personal fears of shame aside for the good of the Imperium.

Often, The Angels of Absolution have worked alongside the Dark Angels, Deathwing and Ravenwing, although there may occasionally have been some friction due to their opposing ideologies. They only partially follow the Codex Astartes. Some may believe the Emperor will judge their souls in the afterlife and therefore see him as divine, while others leave such speculation to those who need it. Honor and atonement are heavy personal themes for these Astartes, and redemption and forgiveness are seen as possible to attain.

Angels of Absolution wiki

Personal Demeanour: Aldaric is very pragmatic. Like most space marines, he is focused on war, which demands a high degree of self control. He is loyal, obedient, courageous, and everything else you would expect for a honed warrior in the Emperor's legions, but he is also an individual. He is less likely to get involved in petty arguments over spirituality or government and more likely to be forgiving of the details as long as there is no disloyalty. He firmly believes that it is important to focus on the present, that honor is a continual act at each moment, despite the mistakes of the past. In battle, he is of the mind that the Emperor wants you alive and fighting, not sacrificed upon the alter of vain glory. He tends to pull others together with comradery and leadership. He would likely be the one to stop his own advance in order to help keep a brother alive and firing.

As far as xenos go, Aldaric bears true hatred against only one, the Tyranids. Other than that, he simply believes in human superiority and right to dominate. Killing xenos is no problem, but killing human traitors is a sad thing indeed.

Speciality: He's a good melee fighter, but probably not best placed at the very front line due to his inclination toward assisting others, directing attacks, and being unusually aware of the tides of battle on the field in general. He has natural qualities of leadership and awareness, which become suppressed when fully devoted to face-to-face combat.

Rank: Recruited as tactical marine.

Power Armour History: Mark VII Aquila/Imperator armor that had been painted white previously. Unknown know who may have worn it before. It's been kept in repair and there are some runes etched on the inside of the breastplate that supposedly confer protection.

Description: Aldaric looks pretty decent, aside for one bionic eye. His left eye is blue, and he has light colored skin and somewhat long, thick silver hair. He looks about 40 to 45 in age, pretty standard for being hundreds of years old. A scar over the right eye suggests what might have happened to it in the past.

Skills: Being a tactical marine, Aldaric is proficient with a wide range of weapons. He's more than decent with range weapons and prefers them since their use usually allows a wider field of vision. His excellent awareness skill has saved him and those close to him many times. Aldaric is literate, and he has unique familiarity with fighting Tyranid among other foes.

History: Aldaric was recruited from a deathworld that basically had dragons on it. Human populations had to band together and work with each other to defend themselves against the great beasts. Among them, young Aldaric was a knight who's duty it was to hunt and slay the enemy. Driven with lethal rage, he organized a small band to avenge a devastating attack on his home city that had resulted in the death of his entire family. He was the last man standing with the pelt of the black dragon, Felblaze, in his hand when a representative of the Dark Angels revealed himself. Aldaric had been judged worthy of the opportunity to fight and defend more people, to be part of a new family, and with nothing left to hold him back, he accepted. Aldaric forwent his former family name and changed it to Felbane, as a threat to all the new dragons he would slay.

Having survived the training and transformation into a space marine, Aldaric spent several centuries in service of the Emperor and mankind. Most recently, he fought in the Third Tyrannic War on Tarsis Ultra against the Hive Fleet Leviathan alongside Ultramarines, Mortifactors, several other chapters, and a Deathwatch kill team. Very many lives were lost, but the contingent was vital in stopping about half the Leviathon fleet from advancing into the Milky Way.

The reasons why Aldaric Felbane was tithed to the Deathwatch are unknown, but being one of the few to survive at Tarsis Ultra was probably a factor. His long years of experience and success in the Angels of Absolution had risen him to company master. His loss will be felt.

Being so selected is not seen so much an honor to the Dark Angels subchapters as it is a cause for grief and foreboding. Aldaric doesn't understand the basis for Imperial militaristic machinations, but he obeys, holding to the promise that he is needed to prevent the death of mankind.

Equipment and Armament: Stalker Pattern Bolter, powersword, grenades.

Supposed to give it to me via PM, but if anyone else wishes to comment on the sheet then go for it.

[Wraithblade6]

@Jbcool Ah. It seems you didn't realize I had been updating it daily in our PM conversation, based on your input. It is sitting in the first post of our pm convo, waiting an approval that never arrived. I didn't realize you never knew. Anyway, I await your orders.

[Andreyich]

It's kinda shit tbh 4/20

[Wraithblade6]

@Andreyich Well somebody's got balls of steel.

[Jb]

@Andreyich is known for his filterless comments.

@Wraithblade6 I did know, but you also broke a direct request from the GM, yet everyone else had the patience to wait; post it in the Character Tab.

[Zelosse]

Stop fiiiightiiiiiiing! You're tearing this family APART!!

[Jb]

Stop fiiiightiiiiiiing! You're tearing this family APART!!

@Zelosse

I didn't do it, I did not hit her, I did nooooot...oh hi, @Zelosse.

[Andreyich]

It was a 420 reference, I didn't mean to offend D:

[Wraithblade6]

@Andreyich Oh. Well I'm glad you told me, because I was getting anxious about there being trolls in this rp. I'm not familiar with 420 other than it being a pot reference.

[Wraithblade6]

@Jbcool Sorry. Please don't send space wolves after me.

[Andreyich]

@Wraithblade6I'm sorry I made such an impression... I hope things don't go sour between us.

[Zelosse]

Gork and Mork are displeased by your softness.
