@Sophrus I can kill him off whenever you'd like?

@Ollumhammersong Indeed, I'll get a post up tomorrow.

Indeed, let's see what Bloodrose has up there sleeve - GMs word is law, after all.

[Storms and Shadows] - A Black Crusade inspired 40k Chaos RP.

Seriously considering swapping to a Minotaur - to fit in with the T H I C C boys... Or at least a Beastman.

@Flagg While true, simply flicking it in someones face is usually enough to get what you like - after all, no one outside the Ordos really knows anything about an Inquisitor.

I'm not saying you need to get rid of it, I'm not the GM on this one (for once), just pointing it out.

You're accepted, YOU'RE accepted, you're accepted... you're all accepted!

If you fine folk wish to put your sheets into the Character Tab then I would be much obliged. I'll get going on a quick reference list for... Quick reference.

@Claw2k11@Mortarion@Jarl Coolgruuf@CleanBreeze

If you still wish to get in on this, I'll give a couple more days of respite - which also gives me time to get going on an opening post - before I say no more.

Looking good everyone, got a nice mix of high-brow nobility, lower-classes and a Space Hobbit that should make for interesting writing. In the words of the late Sir Christopher Lee, acting as Count Dooku, 'I've been looking forward to this'.

@Bloodrose

Judging by the sheets im seeing we don't seem to be too far down the Power org chart. Pirate captains, ex inquisitors, a couple of space marines.

@Ollumhammersong

I'm afraid, as a humanoid terror bird, that I have to agree with Hammer Time - we are anything but up-and-coming heretics; the Marines alone take us from a small-time outfit to a far more dangerous force. That, and due to our Inquisitor retaining his rosette, means we can quite literally requisition anything in Imperial space.

In other news... cheep-cheep, I'm a bird-man.

That is all.

Minos Bull-Head

Name/Titles: Minos Bull-Head, also called 'the Cleaver'.

Denomination: Khornate

Appearance: Centuries of conflict and his dedication to gathering heads for his brass-clad master have bought change upon Minos that he can't say he does not welcome.

Where once stood a noble and handsome Astartes, now is a creature both more and less than he ever was as a transhuman.

Standing near eight-and-a-half feet tall outside of any form of armour, Minos' once proud visage was twisted and warped by dark energies into the likeness of a bullock - his entire body sprouting crimson fur that had gradually began to grey over time, his face lengthening with a crack of bone and flesh, now snouted in the way of a raging bull, and a pair of large horns jutting from his cranium that he has tipped with bronze.

This entire head is usually covered by a 'helmet' of black iron uniquely formed to fit his head and leave only his mouth, eyes and horns uncovered.

His Astartes physiology too meleded with that of his God, his form becoming infused in such a way that his mass almost doubled - and yet there is not an inch of fat on him - his original power armour unable to contain him and so discarded on some battelfield somewhere. He fights without protection on his torso, save for a branded Mark of Khorne burnt into his chest, trusting in Khorne and his own thickened hide and flesh to keep him safe.

Lastly were his once-human legs, twisted and warped into hoofed limbs, these and his loins covered by ramshackle carapace armour coloured crimson by the blood of innocents.

He fights with no firearms, but carrys two chainaxes of ancient providence, neither one having ever broken or let him down... yet.

Personality: In spite of his bodily form, and of his chosen deity, Minos is far from a stupid brute or frenzied killer.

No, Minos likes to believe he embodies the memories of those legendary figures of Ancient Terra - Akhilles, Alaksander who men called the Great and so on - seeking out the enemies champions and either besting them or hoping that his skull finds its way to the side of Khornes throne.

To this end he is not really a team player, though can (and has) fought alongside others on numerous occasions; it is unfortunate that most of them eventually came to the attention of his blades.

No, he is no strategist or battlefield tactician, but he is not yet a ravening monster either. Indeed he remains calm and collected for the most part, combat only sharpening his focus even further, nevertheless needing to isolate himself after prolonged conflict lest he dispatch those around him.

Overall he lives by his own 'code', though even he could not tell you what it is exactly, going where Khorne bids him and accepting his outbursts of violence as they come.

Biography: Minos began his life as Minosian Etrokalos, inductii of the XII legion, his memories of that early life and his first assemblage on Bodt fading in and out just as all his other memories do with exceptional alacrity.

Great detail will not be given here, but needless to say - as a member of the 'Bloody 13th' expeditionary fleet - Minosian was a part of the transformation which overtook the World Eaters legion and forever fractured them from the once-noble War Hounds to a thousand splintered warbands of crazed psychopaths.

The Horus Heresy camy and went, Minosian shed the blood of friend and foe alike, fully embracing the new patronage of the legion by what he saw as the ultimate warrior deity.

Millennia ultimately passed, entire lifetimes of war consumed within the Eye of Terror, which eventually led to the former World Eaters ascending from a mere pawn of the Blood God to a more gifted champion in his name.

After being transformed by his patron, and uninterested in any form of following, Minos (as he was now styling himself) made his way back into real space and, with Khorne's help, a worthy challenge of his skill.

He has been attracted to the service of Eromulus Krynne because of their desire for the gauntlet, a gauntlet washed in the blood of thousands, an artefact worthy of dedication to Khorne, and so he has made his way to Skuberrima and the Screaming Vortex.

Perhaps, finally, he may find a fight worth having, and if not... well...

Gak'Tar Long-Knife, Kroot Mercenary

Name/Titles: Gak'Tar Long-Knife

Denomination: Both Khorne in his most martial aspect and nothing - prefers coin and technology, really.

Appearance: Gak is, in pretty much all ways, the image of an a-typical Kroot warrior; his quilled head is home to sharp eyes and a sharper beak, his overall structure that of a stretched and gangly humanoid covered all over in mottled green and brown-speckled flesh.

Chaotic influence has had an effect however, Gak being more muscled and with quills and flesh of a redder hue than most of his kin.

He usually dresses himself in 'barbaric' garb, consisting of what other species would term rags - a loincloth and so on - with patches of blood-encrusted armour, fetishes and trophies festooning him, but is more than happy and capable to wear heavier armour (taken from an enemy or given by an employer) if the need requires it.

Personality: Irrational, unhinged, and excessively bloodthirsty are some words used to describe this xenos and his 'personality'. Some employers - for he is a mercenary first and foremost - have accused him of being far too cruel, flaying enemies, taking trophies and torturing for what seems like fun; nevertheless he has never reneged on a contract, completing them to the letter, and being paid in full.

He is loyal to a fault if paid correctly, merciless to his adversaries, swift to learn and adapt (as all Kroot are), and with a taste for tainted meat.

One thing he has never understood, though he has an innate sense of it due to his corruption, is the rivalry between the various deities, as such he feels much less uneasy fighting alongside Slaaneshi worshippers or those of the Changer than more human subjects might.

Biography: Gak came to Skuberimma in the way that all Kroot do, as a hired gun for one (and eventually both) of the combatants in a conflict, he and his kindred taken into war by their Shaper in search of DNA, currency and payment in advanced technology.

In the beginning all went well, the kindred prospered and much flesh was consumed under the Shapers watchful gaze, but as they became bogged down in warfare between the two pirate factions things began to go awry; the Shaper was forced more and more to hold back his charges from eating what was known as 'tainted meat' - flesh taken from Chaotic worshippers of one form or another - and it was one fateful day that Gak broke free from his leash and did just that.

The reponse from his former kith and kin was almost immediate, the Shaper able to smell the corruption within him and ordering him dispatched without delay...

It took Gak'Tar years of constant fleeing from one place to the next, and self-defense against his own kind, to finally have a fraction of a sense of freedom, whether illusionary or no.

Over time he decided to shape himself, seeking out the enemies most ferocious warriors and dispatching them himself. This has lead, due to his location and the forces within it, to eating the bodies of many Khornate champions and warriors in the process.

Gak is well aware of Euromulus Krynne, knowing of his mercantile earnings and quite pleased to have been summoned, the terms of payment and exactly what he will be paid still to be discussed. As such this is little more than yet another transaction, and so Gak heads back toward Skuberimma, his beak wet with blood and fire in his veins.

The profile does seem a bit 'blunt' to me, and I'll likely edit it a wee bit later, but here's the initial entry for your perusal.

Warhammer 40k: First into the field and the last out of it! - An Imperial Guard RP [CLOSED]

Where'd everybody go?

[Storms and Shadows] - A Black Crusade inspired 40k Chaos RP.

Oooh. Someone to rival JB.

@Lady Selune

Remains to be seen, but would be excellent if true.

@Bloodrose Would a Chaos-tainted Kroot fit in, after eating corrupted flesh... Or even just a bog-standard Kroot lured in by money. Being mercenaries after all.

Again I'm just asking, as I'm likely to roll with a traitor Guardsmen if it isn't.
