Warhammer 40K: Knives in the Dark - An Only War/Guard RP

Seems pretty quiet around here....

Vivat Imperator in Aeternum (A military RP set in the future, anyone?)

Looks interesting to me.

@Jbcool

@Superboy and I have been working on a collab which we will probably have posted soon.

@Jbcool Still here.

@Superboy If Steiner plans on helping out Laen, it may be a decent idea to do a collab.

@Jbcool I'd like to respond to @Superboy but unfortunately I don't have time to type a post. So, I'll probably just wait until after the next GM post

Inessa accepted the lasgun without hesitation and gave a knowing look to the pale man. In any other situation, she might find his gaze unsettling. But here, it was almost as reassuring as the lasgun she now found in her hands. She cradled it like a precious child, resting it in her lap with the muzzle in the direction of the Major. Her fingers caressed its familiar form, setting the weapon to its maximum power setting, resting comfortably around its perfectly simple pistol grip. If it came to bloodshed, it would be over brutally quick; She could bring down the officer at least, perhaps the sergeant as well or one of the other traitors. Without armor (or clothing for that matter), her fellow prisoners were guaranteed kills. Although, so was she.

Then the major stepped forward to plead his case. Her lasgun was leveled casually at him until the gaunt man spoke again.

"Yes. I will join you on your endeavour, then."

With that, she lowered her weapon to her side and leaned back against the wall, taking a brief moment of respite before steeling herself and attempting to stand. Using the lasgun as a crutch and the wall for support, she slowly and painfully hoisted herself to her feet.

“I...will follow…” She hissed through gritted teeth, letting the wall bear her weight.

When she raised her head again, her eyes loitered on the face of the corpse lying among them. She new her enemy now, servants of the Ruinous Powers, the Archenemy. Her allies were less certain.

@Jbcool Are we failures though? Epsilon and Inessa demonstrated their unwavering loyalty to the Imperium (or what they justifiably thought was the Imperium's side) while the others showed they'd go traitor for a little torture and a free lasgun.

The question becomes then, why not show us that in the first place? Perhaps he was testing the loyalties of our motley crew.

Guess it worked out in Inessa's favor, as she now knows she can trust exactly one of her new companions. :P
