Star Wars: A New Batch - A Clone Squad RP [CLOSED]

After consultation with myself, we'll be going with Legends lore!

Looking for a few more folks if possible though.

Star Wars: A New Batch - A Clone Squad RP [CLOSED]

@The Whacko Not a fan of the canon? :D

@Deadnaut Nice to see you again Dead, seems like forever!

Star Wars: A New Batch - A Clone Squad RP [CLOSED]

Hmm. Might there be an opening for a Mandalorian drill sergeant?

@The Whacko

While there is room for that, post-Kamino there'd no longer be a viable role for you nor much point (since the squad itself are the focus), so I'd have to eeer on the side of saying no currently.

Star Wars: A New Batch - A Clone Squad RP [CLOSED]

Thought I'd pop this up to see if anyone would be interested in, as you may well expect from the title (or not), a Clone-based roleplay?

Not going to lie, it would follow much the same path as Domino Squad, at least in the beginning, eventually leaving Kamino as 'shinies' for the wider galaxy; at this point I'd intend to post them to a non-canon legion under a non-canon Jedi, the details of which can be discussed if/when this goes ahead.

If you're a fan of the Clone Wars series and the journey of Domino Squad, of Band of Brothers, Sharpe or really any other squad-focused film or TV series, then this may well be the RP for you! This is going to be 18+ and certainly not Disney-friendly, something more gritty (I'm aware it's Star Wars and not WWII), so if that's something you enjoy I can only repeat my earlier statement.

Where we begin is pretty set - they're clones after all - but where this could end is really quite open, as far as things go.

So, there's the initial pitch; if you're not interested at this point then this is likely not your cup of tea, but if you are then please feel free to say so, or join the Discord server here: discord.gg/4Umx5Ne.

I'll also be happy to answer any questions, as always.

P.S

We'll be using Legends over Canon because 'eff Disney and up the Mandos!

Warhammer 40k: Sons of Titan - A Grey Knights RP

Brother Bieito Macer

Name: Formerly Neophyte 12-92/8, given the name Bieito (bee-AY-to) Macer

Rank: Battle-Brother

Specialisation: None as of yet

Psychic Aptitude: Like all of his brethren Brother Bieito is a psyker more capable than most in the Imperium, and just as able to use them in the heat of battle against the Emperor's foes. That being said, he also prefers the more martial side of his existence, never showing - nor seemingly wishing to show - excessive proficiency in the powers of the mind.

Appearance: Bieito is 'thin' for an Astartes, if such a word can be used to describe a walking slab of muscle, slighter in build than some of his brothers but more than making up with it with the speed and precision with which he executes his duty and his enemies, hours upon hours of gruelling bodily training and time spent in the training halls shaping him as surely as the psycho-indoctrination of his earlier years and his unshakeable faith in the Emperor.

This behaviour has also left him with multiple scars marring his superhuman flesh, in spite of not seeing true battle... yet.

Facially he bears features typical of Ancient Terran Spaniards, an oblong face with bronzed skin from which peer a quick and intelligent pair of ocean blue eyes, the short reddish-brown hair and beard (an affectation he took from his Justicar) being changed by the implantation process into an almost pure white instead; this makes him look a little older than his comrades, though he is on equal footing with each of them.

Welcome, if you wish to participate then please get a sheet done, if not then you're welcome to ignore this message. :)

Warhammer 40k: Sons of Titan - A Grey Knights RP

Greetings, one and all, and welcome to this thread for a pretty self-explanatory RP; if you've read the title then you already know where I'm going with this.

I'm looking for a small band (a 'brotherhood', if you will) of around 3-5 other writers/players to join me in a tale of heroics and furious battles against the forces of Chaos and plausibly others. The Great Rift has shredded reality and torn the Milky Way in two, servants of the Ruinous Powers pour into realspace in all forms, the venerable Ordo Malleus - and by extension 'their' militant arm - coming to a true test, possibly the largest since their inception by the Sigillite himself.

Although we will be taking on the roles of what are essentially hyper-psychic mythological heroes of the Imperium it will be through the writing and a continuous plot-line that I hope to show why the Grey Knights are truly some of the most badass warriors - yet some of the most invisible - in the entire 40k galaxy.

If you're not going to disappear on me, are comfortable in an Advanced writing enviroment, and like the sound of any of the above, then please feel free to say so in this thread or better yet join the Discord server here: discord.gg/exh3sZeR

As always, the Emperor Protects.

EDIT:

Andreyich asked a reasonable question, and that is at what stage of the GK life-cycle we shall begin, and I can say between completing their initial trials and their first action together as Battle-Brothers.

I'm going to make the Character Sheet short and simple, much like the Knights themselves...

Name: Self-explanatory, the last paragraph or so of this may be of some help.

Rank: At this current moment we're all Battle-Brothers.

Specialisation (If any): Maybe lugging a heavy weapon, or maybe an Apothecary or Tech-Marine etc.

Psychic Aptitude: All Grey Knights are psykers, but all are equal in this regard, most mastering the basics but no necessarily more advanced techniques.

Appearance: What do they look like out of their armour?

That's all for the sheet, personalities and the like can be shown in-character; please post your sheets in the OOC thread.

Aboard the Strike Cruiser Lamiae Mortis the newly minted Astartes of Justicar Kallikles prepare themselves for their first taste of combat outside the bounds of both their fortress-monastery on Titan and far away from the Sol Sector itself.

The galaxy beyond the borders of the innermost Imperium have come apart at the seams, the daemonic threat that the Grey Knights could once contain alone now engulfing an entire half of former Imperial space, planets and even sub-sectors engulfed in the very immaterial threat that the chapter sought to hide from the wider population of their beloved realm... but no more, now they must truly gather their strength and be everywhere at once, their numbers stretched to breaking point and - for the moment at least - their secretive order unable to take on the 'Primaris' given (or forced upon) the remainder of the Emperor's angels of death.

Squad Kallikles and their sleek craft, a strange sight for the otherwise clunky Imperium of Man, have been directed by the Prognosticators to the out-of-the-way planet of Anairu; although not able to foresee precisely what awaits their handful of brethren, all that can be spared if truth be told, they know that it involves the notorious and seemingly indestructible Cult of Anash'Ra - a Chaotic cult dedicated to the worship of the Slaaneshi entity of the same name.

This is a true test for the initiates and, should their faith or firepower fail them, could spell the doom of many worlds.

My knowledge of 40K is somewhat lacking, however your RPs tend to be fun, and I am willing to learn as I go. Count me intrigued by this concept.

@Dusty

YOU FOOL! Aaaahhahahaaaa...

Glad to have you aboard, don't be afraid to ask any question/s if/when you think of them.

Warhammer 40k: Sons of Titan - A Grey Knight RP

Sure, I'll give it a go. Are we only doing baseline GK, or will you be allowing specialist positions like Purifier as well?

@BCTheEntity

To begin with we're all 'baseline', but if you're pure enough, well...

Apothecary, tech-marine etc are still all fine.

Are we considering Matt Ward canon and the part where the Grey Knights bathed in the blood of the Sisters of Battle to ward them from chaos?

@Bork Lazer

Going to say no, although I am still extremely tempted.
