I find that the Eldar, as a faction, are supremely underrepresented in the roleplaying community. Roleplaying the Adeptas Astartes can be fun, but the mysterious and fascinating Eldar are just as interesting, and their vast and expansive lore allows for tons of awesome stories and characters to be developed. With that in mind, I present my concept for an Eldar themed rp.
The Eldar Maiden World of Virdaan is in great danger. The local Exodite shamans have received dire warnings form the World Spirit of a great and terrible calamity soon to befall the planet, an Ork Waaaaagh. In response, the shamans mustered all of the psychic power they could, and sent a call for help through the warp. The call was crude and imprecise, but powerful, drawing on the World Spirit for an extra psychic boost. The call was so powerful that several nearby (relatively speaking) Craftworlds could hear it. Each of them scrambled what aide they could, vanguard forces, ghost warriors, Rangers. With the psychic coordination of the seers of the Craftworlds, a massive Eldar fleet began its movement to reinforce Virdaan. However, the pyschic call for aide was heard by more than just the Eldar, and dark, hungry forces now set their sights on the vulnerable Maiden World.
-The Team: The idea is to have a diverse cast of Eldar who can be from a number of Craftworlds, and fill a number of roles. You can be anything from a lowly Guardian to a powerful Warlock. There may even be a few spots for some ghost warriors, if I think you're capable of roleplaying such a character. This will be a small-to-medium sized special forces group sent ahead of the main eldar fleet on a very specific mission.
-The Mission: The mission for our team is three-pronged. Firstly, make contact with the local Exodite population to coordinate defenses. Second, find and repair an ancient Eldar Webway gate to allow for swift and secretive reinforcement planetside, and third, assist in the defense of the planet through the first few waves of the assault and holdout until the conjoined Eldar fleet arrives. However, things will not go as smoothly as intended.
So, obviously, this will require basic understanding of the 40k lore, and at least a little knowledge of Eldar lore specifically, however, I'm a big lore buff, particularly in respects to the Eldar, and can answer most questions. Anyone interested?
