Warhammer 40K: Task Squad

<Snipped quote by Blackbeard>

It looks good, feel free to post it in the CS tab.

Though the end of your bio sounds like it's missing a word or two.

@Sinerathin

Mhmm, I'll amend that at some point.

Warhammer 40K: Task Squad

- The first steps of a Pilgrim -

It wasn’t unusual for Anomander to take chances, his perpetual paranoia forced him to keep moving lest he be found by the Astra Telepathica. He was hoping for something uncomplicated to serve as his escape but alas, no such opportunity presented itself. Sitting in the agile shuttle he mused as to what exact madness had convinced him to partake in a task force for the planetary governor, but without a quick answer for his question Anomander decided to watch as they approached instead. A colossal spire patched by light-filled windows arose like a mutilated finger from among the Gothic masonry of the buildings at its base, it pointed blasphemously at heaven assuring its residents status. For a brief moment, Anomander regretted what he might have started.

----------

The bitterly familiar clank of power armour bounced off the narrow corridor walls as Anomander kept pace at the back of this unlikely group. He quickly allowed his eyes to scan the gloriously painted ceiling. Indulgent as any other planetary palace. Anomander himself contrasted the grandiose nature of his surroundings, wearing a modest brown overall with the faded intricacy of pattern that descended shapelessly over his feet. As modest as it was it had served Anomander for many years, acquiring stains and tears it acted almost as a tapestry of his recent endeavors. Underneath the equally tattered hood his face was barely visible, though his eyes flickered defiantly like twin mirrors echoing any light that struck their surface.

As the walls stopped and the two ornate guards rolled to the periphery of Anomanders vision, a voice was heard that caused everyone to hesitate. Sherpa Silverlain, member and servant to the governor. Between the glance of paranoia as Anomander examined the room, and the few members still in front of him yet to move, it took a moment before a face was equated to the introductory voice. A man, still in the embrace of youth, fought the doubt of experience with gleaming white hair. He invited the troop of what Anomander previously assumed to be mercenaries to sit at the large, imposing table.

Encouraged to introduce themselves, a opportunity that one Caius Langston jumped at, Anomander took the brief moment of disregard he was gifted to pull his hood from his head. Hair of an unnatural grey shade spoiled a surprisingly fresh face. His skin, flush with a reddish hue, darkened in the crevices of his eyes and nose whilst not a single facial hair was allowed to blemish his strong jawline.
He grabbed the chairs manchette as if lowering himself into place, something that conflicted with his callow appearance. He paused, mid-act, as the melodic voice of Maria Delforce communicated her charisma. An indirect stare allowed Anomander a fringe glance at the supposed Sister hospitaller. A veiled grunt to himself decided that she not be what she seemed, a truth that made Anomander anxious. Taking a handful of the brown fabric of his robe, he folded it into his lap so he could sit comfortably. As the Sister hospitaller finished her inauguration with gratuitous glee, Anomander resolved to get his introduction out of the way.
“Anomander Sirin." he voiced. No more, no less. He had previously anticipated the risk that revealing his true name could endanger his liberty from the Astra Telepathica, but he ultimately decided that if such precautions were taken in his recapture then it wouldn’t matter if he used his name or not. He tucked his seemingly banal staff in the crook of the chairs arm, keeping it in place with the thin grasp of his lower fingers. He pondered for the few moments of silence that followed his discerning voice.

Biography - Anomander has always been alone. As a child he found himself shunned. As a teenager he was avoided. As a man, feared. His psychic power, forever tied to his emotions was never controllable. Drafted into the Adeptus Astra Telepathica he was sent to the far reaches of the galaxy and back, unleashed upon the various denizens of hive worlds and battlefields Anomander yearned for control in his life. His emotions reigned over his soul whilst the Imperium seemingly owned his body which quickly became a fleshy prison. Anomander left the service of the Astra Telepathica, he made his own decisions from now on and whilst he was eternally on the run from an end to his freedom, when the Imperium inevitably reigned him back in, he could at least tell himself that he had tried to shape his own destiny.

After taking hidden refuge upon supply ships and trade freighters, Anomander now finds himself on the hive world of Soliaire II. He has been here long enough to be familiar with its high towers and its lowly slums. Too long. He needed yet another route to keep himself on the move, and fortunately such a opportunity had presented itself to Anomander without the need to search for it. At the household of Alpheous Marximus, the planetary governor, task squads were being formed in an attempt to quash.

Traits -

• Empathetic - Decades trapped inside a mind such as Anomanders can only result in constant over-analyzing of his psyche and of others. Having explored all the crevices of his own mind he is more attuned than most as to the inner workings of others.
• Powerful Psyker - Needless to say Anomander has potent Psychic ability, having served in the Astra Telepathica he has encountered various Chaos, Ork and even Eldar Psychics and has lived to tell the tale. You could not say he channels his abilities but rather, he unleashes them.
• Scholar - Anomander has traveled the stars and seen almost everything they have to offer. He has read texts and dissected data-logs endlessly until he could recite them by memory. Anomander is a scholar, he will have experienced or read about even the most obscure entities withing the sub-sector Magna-four.

• Unstable - Anomanders powers are tied to his emotions and they are rarely under his control. Occasionally his powers can be unintentionally sparked into action.
• Poor shot - The mundane elements of battle have forever escaped Anomanders ability. He has held various weapons and can generally figure out how they function yet he rarely hits his mark.
• Tainted - The warp is filled with perils and Anomander has been exposed. It is something that he has never told anyone but he has seen the chaos in the warp and he is certain, it saw him too.

Bleach: Soul Extinction (Reboot)

I'm always interested in Bleach RP's. However there are a couple things worrying me, firstly What is the story? If it's waiting to be revealed for the start of the RP that's fine but the initial post of the OOC has no story and is all character building, rules and mechanics. Which brings me to the next niggle, mechanics puts me off almost completely, but It seems you have implemented them simply to allow character growth for lower-ranks and that 'Captains and such don't really use them' so would it be alright (Planning to make a lieutenant considering all Captains are taken) that I just skip that part? obviously I'll stay within the rules no god-modding etc I just dislike putting numbers to everything

Is my CS alright for the CS tab Sin? or do you want some edits?

Edit: I have completed my opening post in anticipation, so as soon as I'm officially accepted then I can throw it up.

@Blackbeard Ummmm... the lore and the context of the Warhammer Universe. What are psykers. And techno priests. And wtf are orcs doing here XD

Who are the bad guys anyway?

@6slyboy6

Read the setting part of this, it's only short - wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Warhammer_40,..

Below that there are three broad categories being the Imperium (Man), Chaos (Demons and cults) and Xenos (Aliens) Each of those lists the basic factions set in each category. Psykers can be found in almost any race, it simply means someone with Psychic power that can range from melting faces to reading someones mind. Orks are one of the Xenos races in the Universe. They are completely different from Lord of the rings Orcs in that they are normally hugh muscle bound greenskins whom smash and rip apart everything they run into. Think of them like gangs of thugs, just ones whom can rip a human in half and traverse space.
Techno priests are a very small sect inside the Imperium (Man) They originate from Mars. It's basically a planet built on technology, there they do all the weapon design ship building all that Jazz for the Imperium and as such there grew a Monk-like society called Techpriests. Think of them like cyborg Warrior Monks.

The bad guys are debatable, one of the nice things about this setting is whilst there are races you could defiantly signify as evil, no one is really 'good' Even the Imperium of Man are basically just trying to conquer the universe themselves. The bad guys for all intents and purposes are anyone who isn't us. That means almost any Xenos, Orks, Eldar (Space Elves) and the like but probably above all Chaos.

A rough crash course on Chaos would be...there is another dimension called 'the warp' which can be used for wormholes as well as to draw psychic power from. The problem is there were...things inside the warp. Namely 4 things. 4 things so powerful they could be considered Gods, Khorne, Nurgle, Slaanesh and Tzeetch are their names and throughout the 40k history they have tempted and turned man with their evil ways finally to the degree in which the Imperium of man split in half, a huge huge civil war broke out when almost half of the Imperiums millitary forces turned to chaos and started to do these dark gods bidding. Obviously as a result, the Imperium hate them, see them as evil, and seek to destroy them all.

This is a universe that has spawned hundreds of books, games, tabletop games obviously and even a film. You wont get to grips with all of its lore as there is literally too much but it's incredibly detailed and super super cool.

@BlackbeardThis guy is excellent! Guess I'll cross of a Culexus assassin from my options... :)

@Jbcool

Well thank you very much! To be honest it was quite a scrap to even get that much down for him ^ I didn't think he was all that cool. A Culexus assassin would see us clash! And most likely you would win too XD

It's not 100% but I hope this will be enough to give you a feeling for him and we can get this thing on the road!

Star Wars - Jedi Exile - Knights of the Last Republic

@Blackbeard While I acknowledge this isn't finished yet the question will be a) Why not just a standard Jedi Cloak and b) Why cut of your horns within the Jedi Order where everyone is accepted? An Example of this is there was even a Hutt that was a Jedi.

@Sep

Well the getup is more designed for after the initial period of escape, he would wear that in an attempt not to get noticed. Or at least less so than if he wore traditional Jedi garbs. Secondly as it says on wookiepedia, Devaronians often make people uneasy because they look like devils from so many religions, on top of this with Devils being evil and the Sith not being lovey-dovey he wants to stray as far as he can from the evil look as to not draw any dark-side connotations. Would that suffice?

Edit: I'll PM you in fact.
