@Dogematix Fertility would focus on procreation, while life would focus on what is already there keeping it alive and protecting it from things like undeath and death.
I will be probably making the OOC tomorrow, just so that people who have already shown interest and are creating characters can go ahead and post them.
The War is over, word spread through the heavens, and mortal planes alike as quick as a wildfire in the midst of fall. For a century, civil war ravaged the Gods, Demi-gods, and their creations as the God of War Thatos rebelled against his Father, the Father of All Gods Ephra. But now both are dead, slain in battle their powers too great for one another as they struck each other down. Now the Immortals are in chaos, leaderless in all aspects, the rebels and those that sided with their father now all know that a vacuum of power is at stake, and the one to inherit the throne as the Ruler of the Gods is a very tempting occupation. Many crave power, but who will control it? The War is over, but could another just be starting?
OOC Information
The world of Arikath created by a Pantheon of Gods who live among those Mortals they created. They each rule a different domain, and each live in nations devoted to those domains. This world while ruled by many Gods ultimately had one true King, and the King of the Gods was named Ephra, his domain being that of the Immortal. Any being that lived forever was under his rule. Ephra created a realm known as the heavens. It was here that Ephra ruled the other Gods from, no longer able to interact with the mortals, but rather he created a Utopia filled with Immortals of all sorts. This was all while his children ruled on the ground in the mortal world, toiling under the constant supervision of their father as they cared for the world he had created, caring for the mortals that were their children, that they had to watch slowly wither with age, and die. Over time one god would come to resent Ephra, and what he considered his father’s oppression, War.
War grew tired of living under what he considered his Father’s oppressive rule, and gathered those who felt similar splitting the Pantheon in half, and waging civil war against his father and those that stood with him. For a century civil war waged, Gods killing gods, mortals and demi gods alike dying in the thousands, and hundreds. In this roleplaying you will be taking on the role of a God or Goddess, picking their domains, and creating their people, cities, and lands living with them, sharing your life with them. You see them on the streets everyday, and they are able to worship you in person. You will rule them benevolently, or ruthlessly. You will be part of the choice for the throne as all the Gods decide on who will become their new King. You can toss your own bid into this, or support or another. Will you fight for rule? Fight for another to rule? Try to solve things peacefully? It’s up to you.
Rules
You can only create one god for now.
Don’t overpower your creations please.
This RP isn’t about winning or losing. It’s about the story.
I’ll provide a list of domains, but if you’d like to suggest one please do.
Respect, and have fun. That’s what this is about!
Not really a rule, but I can be found on the Discord chat sometimes to ask questions if you need to ask
Again have fun.
Standard Rules apply, no mary sues or gary sues god modding etc
This is a High Casual, Low Advanced RP, so dedicated roleplayers please
At the end of each post please put a @mention for each player you are addressing to make things easier to keep up with.
There is no post limit per say, but if you do take too long I will let you know
Death of a PC is possible (Demi-gods can take their place in the domain) but only do so if the PC to be killed is consenting OOCly.
Domains
Domains are the areas that a Deity holds power over, if a deity does not hold sway over a certain domain they cannot use their influence upon it. Some domains do have more power than others. If a domain is not claimed that god will be considered an NPC playable by myself or my CO-GMs upon request, these Gods do not have plot armor of any sort, but killing them must be reasonable.. We the GMs are playing them after all and will do what we find necessary if we feel like someone is rocking a power play. Some deities domains may not be listed here, minor deities would only have minor domains which are not on this domain list.
Death (reserved) Life (reserved) Nature (Reserved) Predation (Reserved) Dreams (Reserved) The Sun Storms (reserved) Seas (reserved) Fates Mankind (reserved) War (Reserved) Murder (Reserved) Corruption (Reserved) Lust (Reserved) Fertility (reserved) Dragons (Reserved) The Forge (Reserved) The Hunt (reserved) Love Justice (reserved) Darkness (Reserved) The Moon (Reserved) Progress Pride Monsters (reserved) Undeath Knowledge (Reserved) Hell (reserved)
Character Creation
Gods will be created through a character sheet format, followed by the creation of their lands, and people/culture. Your people, and culture should be compatible with your domain.
Gods Bane Weapons: Are weapons capable of killing Gods, like other weapons would kill mortals. Any weapons held by a deity is considered a gods bane weapon. Godly Magic: The power the deities wield is tremendous and capable of killing other deities if they are injured enough.
Name:
Gender: Gods can be fickle
Appearance: Written or picture. I’d prefer no badly anime. Western Style art is fine, very detailed anime would be fine as well. All Gods and Goddesses stand between 12 and 14 feet tall please try to give a bit of specification in that regard
Personality:
Major Domain: Only one
Minor Domains: No more than two. You can make these as need be. Be sure no one else has claimed it.
Weaknesses:(No one is all powerful)
Your Avatar: Every God and Goddess has an Avatar, these usually take the form or a monster, or animal, and are usually enormous, these are not actually your god, simply a creature of your deities creation that represents them in their realms and can be used for combat. Avatars are capable of killing Gods.
Stance: This is your stance on what is currently taking place, who you support if anyone or yourself etc...
Loyalty During the Rebellion: The Civil war has only recently ended, who’s side did you fight on?
Center of Power: A small object no larger than a softball, but no bigger than a grape. This object represents the power you god holds over their major domain. These are important as any who wish to become the King of Gods must have every center of power offered to them and fit into it's place on the throne so that they may sit upon it. Once they have sat upon the throne they will then return the Centers of Power to their prospective owners. (Or maybe they wont.)
Relations: If you want to collaborate pre-existing relationships with other places, please put them here. I highly encourage this.
Powers: Let’s get a semblance of an idea what your character is capable of doing in combat.
Godly Equipment: List what you have here, and what it does.
Demi Gods: These are children you have had with mortals. You cannot have more than 2. Please list their names, and what their supernatural properties are for being your child. They also typically stand around 8 to 10 feet tall
Name of your Land:
Lands: Flora, Fauna, Geography. Whats the land like where you live.
People: What species are they? What ethnicity are they? Describe them here.
Culture: What do your people do? How do they live? What do they enjoy? Architecture?
Technology: What level of Technology do they have? Nothing later than early medieval
Capital: What is the capital of your lands? Name it and describe it.
Beings: What other immortal creatures live in your lands? Nymphs? Ogres? Elementals? List them here if they are not a main population of your creations. Some creatures just happened without any god creating them.

EQUIPMENT:
The staley suit is a state of the art, completely sealed combat suit, that can either utilize the breathable atmosphere around it, or use the oxygen pack attached when in a vacuum. The armor plating is capable of deflecting glancing shots from most weapons, including energy weapons, but is not capable of taking on a solid hit from anything more powerful than a .45 caliber.

The Power Adjustable Blaster rifle. This blaster rifle is a single shot blaster rifle that can have it's power adjusted to be either perfect for sniping infantry, or tearing through a vehicle's plate armor.
The Viper is a foldable micromolecular sword, meaning.. That it cuts things on a molecular level, few things can withstand the slash of the blade, and they are carried by every soldier in the Federation.
From left to right Standard Fragmentation Grenade Anti-vehicle pulse grenade Neurotoxin Grenade, Highly corrosive
This multi purpose four legged tank is quite useful in multiple environments able to climb difficult terrain and pull itself out of soft ground, it sports a large blaster cannon that is capable of destroying enemy armor, driven by a single pilot it is the only tank the Valstrex use.
The Vader armored transport is capable of carrying up to twelve troops plus the driver, armed with a pulse blaster it can temporarily disable enemy armor and electronics while it unloads its deadly payload.

Federation mechs are powerful mobile suits capable taking quite a bit of damage from even enemy anti armor, this vehicle carries the only ballistic weapon the Federation still uses, and only for it's versatility and lack of better options to put on the mech. The grunt rifle fires large shells that are capable of being switched out based on combat needs, from shrapnel shells for anti-infantry, to a solid hot shell capable of melting through enemy armor.
HERO UNITS:
A veteran since Meagan began to play MockZ Commander Lucia has seen more than her fair of action and has taken in all in stride, because of her there were quite a few victories that may have been out of Meagan's Grasp.
Lt Mary is a strong point fo the Federation, the MockZ beneath her look up to her, and she can typically be seen leading troops right into the fray, she is particularly brilliant with the micromolecular blade, as well as a piloting a quad tank.
KINETIC HERO (A hero capable of using different kinetic abilities) NAME: Lucy POWER: Electrokineses APPEARANCE:
MAGIC UNIT:
The Cryptic Sisterhood is made up of women that all are capable of using kinetic powers, each one has been trained to createa shield made of pure kinetic energy, and to use kinetikineses against their foes, armed with micromolecular bladed whips, these women wear very light armor so that their powers are not diminished and can typically be seen on the front lines, usually arriving via a armored transport.
Homeworld: Kestes II, Designation Death World, a world destroyed by combat so badly that it’s surface is mostly bare due to bombing, now all that is left is the rare outcrop of land capable of growing flora, and raising fauna, even most of the water was tainted and undrinkable. Farah grew up in a small tribe where everyday was a battle with other tribes over their watering hole, and their farms. Every single drink was earned with blood shed. It truly builds strong warriors to live on this planet as everything done has to be done with quick precise understanding of the consequences that can follow no matter how small.
Alignment:Loyalist, she (possibly) survives the Civil war, and ends up taking part in running the new Imperium, trying to keep it's standards as her father wished.
Appearance:
She stands at 2.8 meters tall, with a powerful build and weighing about 219.085 kilograms
Wargear: Wearing a set of Terminator armor is awe inspiring, the behemoth suit of plate stands out all the more with the elaborate decorations that adorn it, showing that the wearer of it is more than just your average marine. The plates themselves are painted very dark purple known as Eminence, with tiger like stripes slashing along the purple in a shade of orange known as Tangelo. This isn’t all that makes it so different, it is adorned along the back with a myriad of colored feathers each about two feet in length, and hanging from the shoulders is the pelt of a very large feral feline with a black coat and yellow spots. Furthermore etched into several of the plates are symbols from her homeworld denoting luck, strength, and victory. Many times she can be seen on the battlefield without her helmet on, but when it is adorned violet glows emit from those lenses to stare out across the battlefield as she seeks to lead her women to glory. Along with her armor she carries a Power Maul that was built to an appropriate size for her terminator armor, and the fact that she is a Primarch. The Power Maul has a plasma rifle built inside of it so that the ammunition is loaded into the bottom and fires out the end. Further she also carries a Storm Shield of appropriate size mounted on her forearm as well which combined with her terminator armor makes her a very hard to destroy foe indeed. Her left hand which is the same arm with the storm shield wields a lightning claw allowing her to have a variety of melee on top of her shield and plasma rifle.
Personality: She has a strong reverence, almost to the point of Zealotry. Her loyal nature is only more obvious as she never falters from her orders given by the Emperor, or those given to her through those who speak in the name of the Emperor. Regardless of this she can be full hardy, and bull headed, especially in combat. She never considers the possibility that losing, or retreat is an option, she would instead instead fight to the last woman rather than ever have to report that she had lost ground, or lost a battle. Though she would put her women warriors through the limits in battle, she cares for each of them greatly, and considers them her daughters in the most literal sense of the word, being sure to learn each marine she meets name and match it with a face.
Regardless of this very personal attachment she has to each of her marines, she understands there will be losses, and instead of mourning each of these she finds herself honoring the dead by having their names etched into the walls of her personal cabin. There is nothing she wouldn’t do for the Imperium, and any enemies who stand in Farah’s way should fear her wrath.
Skills: She’s an expert in close combat, and always seems to have a knack for breaking through the frontlines of enemies. Not many can match the tenacity of Farah when it comes to tactics and strategy on the ground in close combat, and finding weaknesses not only in enemy formations, but in a enemies’ personal defenses as well. She has a taste for using short ranged weapons, and close combat ones training mostly with her Power Maul, with built in plasma rifle and Storm Shield. This is brought on by a strange supernatural perception that makes it seem like she can almost see what will happen, before it happens. Though this perception may be a manifested psyker power, she has exhibited no other powers, and thus is not labelled as such. Psyker Assignment Level: Omicron
Biography: She was found lying in a small field of corn, her body healthy, and everything about her seemed to be perfect. Many of the tribe wanted to leave her in the barrens where nothing would grow to die, others wanted to kill her outright believing that they could not feed another mouth that was not hers. Yet the Tribe Elder and his wife disagreed, finding that the child who seemed closer to a teen than that of a toddler was something special sent to them, a being that would help them keep what was theirs. They were proved right as Farah proved to be a quick learner at everything she did, and was strong enough to begin doing tasks than even two men would be able to do for the tribe.
She excelled with them quickly bringing them harmony as she helped in the taking care of what cattle they had, and helping tend the fields, even showing them a way to make some land that had once been thought impossible to far, and turn it it into workable farm land, which doubled the amount of land they had to grow food. She also showed almost natural abilities with weapons, proving time and again as she fended off raids that she was more than capable of using a firearm, and swords. As her age increased she told the elder of strategies and plans she had come up with so that the warring between the tribes could end, and they could live in peace.
So she lead the Tribe against the others removing the leaders to show the strength of her tribe, and revealing all that she had taught to her own tribe so that no one would be without. After a decade of this the planet was finally unified. A new era of peace dawned for Kestes as had never been seen before, with only the occasional rebellion rising up. Besides that though it was peaceful. That was until the Emperor came, and told her of his crusade, told her who she was to him. She went with him though and and was given her own Legion, the Fifth Legion which was quickly renamed the ‘Blazing Sisters’ after their tactics, and color pattern.
10,186 Captain Isis, a handsome woman with facial features that most strongly resemble Farah of any of the Blazing Sisters, her hair when grown out also shares the same color and texture though she typically keeps her hair shaved to the scalp. She wears a set of Terminator armor much like her primarch as well though she wears a panther pelt only over the right shoulder, and wields a pair of lightning claws. Isis is one of the cooler tempered of her sisters, except when it comes to her Pirmarch, when it comes to Farah's reputation or life being on the line Isis can be easily put into a fury of retribution, but her leadership skills and strategic mind are strong and sound, and her unwaivering attitude in battle has earned her the position of First Company Captain.
9,847 Captain Thalestris A face that seems almost regal with piercing eyes, Thalestris would have had the eye of many suitors if she was not born an Astartes. With hair the color of golden corn, she has shaved it in a single stirpe down the middle of her head and cuts off just at the back of her skull where it is all tied back into a ponytail that reaches her shoulders. She wears a regular set of power armor a lion's pet adorning her left shoulder and carries a power spear slightly taller than herself. She is of few words, and moves like a lioness on the prowl searching for everyone's weakness at all times.
10,001 Captain Valasca Valasca has seen better days, one of Farah's best Captains, but also most brash , she bears the markings of a life in war where she has taken many chances. Once a handsome face with strong features was now marred with multiple scars, and a cybernetic where and Ork had gotten to her. Further showing of her brashness is the fact that her right arm down is completely mechanical after she lost it charging a Ork line. Though all these acts are brash they also were successful, and turning points that brought many victories to Farah and through her the Emperor. She wears a set of regular power armor donning a beige pelt of a feline on her right shoulder, carrying a chainsword, and a Inferno pistol gifted to her by Farrah as a reward due the victory won at the sacrifice of her arm.
8,734 Captain Penthesilia Some find it hard to believe when they see her face that she is an Astartes, she truly has a beauty like few other among the Blazing Sisters with vibrant eyes, naturally long lashes, and hair as soft as silk many consider her quid beautiful. She keeps that soft platinum hair cut in a fade with the top being left very long and falling to one side. The Captain of Fourth Company commands the Company with largest amount of Terminators and thus she herself also wears terminator armor, with the pelt of a white tiger with almost neon blue stripes draped over her shoulder. She fights with deadly ferocity using a attached storm bolter, and a chainfist. She tends to be quite open with her thoughts, quite often expressing herself fully no matter the situation. Still she will always follow follow orders, and is willing to go into situations that would kill other Astartes.
12,322 Captain Antiope Antiope is very different from the rest of her Sisters, her hair is a darker brown color, with a rounder face than the rest of her sisters who have high cheekbones, and strong jawlines, regardless of this she is a extremely valued Sister, and completely worthy of her position as a captain. Like other Captains she wears the typical power armor the pelt of a lynx like feline on the left shoulder, unlike the others she is especially talented in ranged combat, and leads the largest amount of range fighters, she carries a Storm Bolter of which she has perfected the use of over her time in the Blazing Sisters legion.
Sixth Company 10,212 Seventh Company 8,121 Eight Company 11,989 Captain Eurybe (6th), Captain Celaneo(7th), Captain Phoebe(8th) Strangely enough these three women all took on the same identical appearance, a strong jawline, high cheek bones, small pouty lips, and half closed seemingly uncaring eyes. They also all took to having the same hairstyle where the left side of their head is shaved completely bald and the other side hangs to their shoulders, in a blonde silky waterfall. They all wear Astartes power armor decorated with a tiger pelt stretched over their right shoulders. Each one carries a different weapons though, Eurybe carrying a Power Lance, Celaneo carrying a Power Sword, and Phoebe carrying a Power Axe.
Honor Guard Slayers of Herakles These women make up some of the most elite of the Blazing Sister's legion. They are fifteen strong, and mixed between regular Astartes, and Librarians. They wear terminator armor the color of gold, with red splashes, while they carry Halberd weapons, force halberds for the Librarian's and Power Halberds for the non Librarians. They are lead by Captain Antimache, a veteran of the Blazing Sister's legion, one of the oldest serving Marines under Farah's command. She keeps her head shaved smooth and bald, and wears the pelt of a Kestes Lion as a cape.
Special Units The Lion Lancers: The Kestes Lions are enormous beasts standing around eight feet at the shoulder while on all fours. They are armored in their own way with special springs, and shocks designed to hold the weight of a fully armored Astartes to ride upon their back. They also typically have a storm bolter mounted on a swivel on their back. The riders of these beasts carry power lances, and use the mounted storm bolter as a ranged weapon. The lions typically have fur colored black and white, with huge flowing manes that obscure the most of the rider from view of the enemy.
Non-Astartes Iterator Elias Kaphim Elias Kaphim is the Senior most Iterator on the ship and is often sought out by Farah, and the other Captains when they are in need of counsel, or wish to learn more about the past. He stands stooped at the waist, bent over as his back was bent with age, his skin wrinkled with time, though there is still a sparkle of intelligence in his eyes.
Remembrancer Lykinnia Assandros Farrah’s personal remembrancer, Farrah has assigned Lykinna to record all her accounts of war stories, and things that are taking place during her campaigns, she also lets her record her personal feelings about how campaigns are going and the actions of other Primarchs on, and off the battlefield. She also often tells her of stories from before she joined the Crusade, and tales from her homeworld, and the songs they sung. Lykinnia is young and beautiful, hair colored bright red, with skin like porcelain, pouty lips red as blood, and bright green eyes. It was too much dismay of many men that she chose to rembrance for the crusade and now stays constant aboard Farrah’s Flagship.
Astra Telepath Daigan Morrow The Psyker for Farrah’s flagship, he is completely blind, and frail even though he is incredibly young.
Farrah’s Serf Hipp She tried and failed at being and Astartes, and was instead made into a Serf for Farrah’s personal use. She spends much of her time cleaning Farrah’s armor, and preparing the tribal elements that often decorate Farrah’s armor.
Favored Tactics/Battlefield Role: The Blazing Sisters Legion has a mindset of charging into battle, usually looking to hit an enemy’s frontline at it’s weakest point in order to break it. They typically form up prepared for short ranged, and close melee combat, their weapons usually consisting of chainswords, bolt pistols, and bolters. While they do have some armored vehicles it’s not nearly as many as other legions, as the tactics they typically follow in battle can’t use many vehicles except ones that deliver heavy artillery fire, though they do make use of many dreadnoughts.
Legion Characteristics/Ideology: They tend to be extremely stricts outside of combat, wearing only the appropriate attire issued to them, acting only as accorded to them by their chapters standards, and adhering to strict training schedules. During their time off from their schedules in which they can do what they please they can be often found playing games that require sharp minds knowing strategy, or sparring with each other in the training rooms. They are often respectful with other legion’s astartes, but can grow aggravated with a lack of discipline or lack of planning in any given situation.
Other: Farrah’s Flagship is named, Mellanippe
The Blazing Sisters typically put on warpaint before going into battle, a broad stripe of orange that goes from the end of one eye to the over including over the bridge of their nose, with thin strip of purple from the top of their top lip to the bottom of their chins.
The Blazing Sisters love to sing songs, especially when marching or in battle. They often sing when they gather together for updates from Farrah, who often leads them in their singing. Example of a Battle Song: Ad bellum duci imperator nobiscum Victoria nostra canimus clare omnibus audientibus , vox nostra ocreis vere nos annuntiamus , ducis nunquam moriamur
They often share stories, though they embellish them greatly as to evoke a greater fascination with the stories or make them so much more humorous.
Outside of their armor, The Blazing Sisters often wear Togas, or simple cloth skirts.
Homeworld: Kestes II, Designation Death World, a world destroyed by combat so badly that it’s surface is mostly bare due to bombing, now all that is left is the rare outcrop of land capable of growing flora, and raising fauna, even most of the water was tainted and undrinkable. Farah grew up in a small tribe where everyday was a battle with other tribes over their watering hole, and their farms. Every single drink was earned with blood shed. It truly builds strong warriors to live on this planet as everything done has to be done with quick precise understanding of the consequences that can follow no matter how small.

Further showing of her brashness is the fact that her right arm down is completely mechanical after she lost it charging a Ork line. Though all these acts are brash they also were successful, and turning points that brought many victories to Farah and through her the Emperor. She wears a set of regular power armor donning a beige pelt of a feline on her right shoulder, carrying a chainsword, and a Inferno pistol gifted to her by Farrah as a reward due the victory won at the sacrifice of her arm.
8,734 Captain Penthesilia Some find it hard to believe when they see her face that she is an Astartes, she truly has a beauty like few other among the Blazing Sisters with vibrant eyes, naturally long lashes, and hair as soft as silk many consider her quid beautiful. She keeps that soft platinum hair cut in a fade with the top being left very long and falling to one side. The Captain of Fourth Company commands the Company with largest amount of Terminators and thus she herself also wears terminator armor, with the pelt of a white tiger with almost neon blue stripes draped over her shoulder. She fights with deadly ferocity using a attached storm bolter, and a chainfist. She tends to be quite open with her thoughts, quite often expressing herself fully no matter the situation. Still she will always follow follow orders, and is willing to go into situations that would kill other Astartes.
12,322 Captain Antiope Antiope is very different from the rest of her Sisters, her hair is a darker brown color, with a rounder face than the rest of her sisters who have high cheekbones, and strong jawlines, regardless of this she is a extremely valued Sister, and completely worthy of her position as a captain. Like other Captains she wears the typical power armor the pelt of a lynx like feline on the left shoulder, unlike the others she is especially talented in ranged combat, and leads the largest amount of range fighters, she carries a Storm Bolter of which she has perfected the use of over her time in the Blazing Sisters legion.
Sixth Company 10,212 Seventh Company 8,121 Eight Company 11,989 Captain Eurybe (6th), Captain Celaneo(7th), Captain Phoebe(8th) Strangely enough these three women all took on the same identical appearance, a strong jawline, high cheek bones, small pouty lips, and half closed seemingly uncaring eyes. They also all took to having the same hairstyle where the left side of their head is shaved completely bald and the other side hangs to their shoulders, in a blonde silky waterfall. They all wear Astartes power armor decorated with a tiger pelt stretched over their right shoulders. Each one carries a different weapons though, Eurybe carrying a Power Lance, Celaneo carrying a Power Sword, and Phoebe carrying a Power Axe.
Honor Guard Slayers of Herakles These women make up some of the most elite of the Blazing Sister's legion. They are fifteen strong, and mixed between regular Astartes, and Librarians. They wear terminator armor the color of gold, with red splashes, while they carry Halberd weapons, force halberds for the Librarian's and Power Halberds for the non Librarians. They are lead by Captain Antimache, a veteran of the Blazing Sister's legion, one of the oldest serving Marines under Farah's command. She keeps her head shaved smooth and bald, and wears the pelt of a Kestes Lion as a cape.
Special Units The Lion Lancers: The Kestes Lions are enormous beasts standing around eight feet at the shoulder while on all fours. They are armored in their own way with special springs, and shocks designed to hold the weight of a fully armored Astartes to ride upon their back. They also typically have a storm bolter mounted on a swivel on their back. The riders of these beasts carry power lances, and use the mounted storm bolter as a ranged weapon. The lions typically have fur colored black and white, with huge flowing manes that obscure the most of the rider from view of the enemy.
Non-Astartes Iterator Elias Kaphim Elias Kaphim is the Senior most Iterator on the ship and is often sought out by Farah, and the other Captains when they are in need of counsel, or wish to learn more about the past. He stands stooped at the waist, bent over as his back was bent with age, his skin wrinkled with time, though there is still a sparkle of intelligence in his eyes.
Remembrancer Lykinnia Assandros Farrah’s personal remembrancer, Farrah has assigned Lykinna to record all her accounts of war stories, and things that are taking place during her campaigns, she also lets her record her personal feelings about how campaigns are going and the actions of other Primarchs on, and off the battlefield. She also often tells her of stories from before she joined the Crusade, and tales from her homeworld, and the songs they sung. Lykinnia is young and beautiful, hair colored bright red, with skin like porcelain, pouty lips red as blood, and bright green eyes. It was too much dismay of many men that she chose to rembrance for the crusade and now stays constant aboard Farrah’s Flagship.
Astra Telepath Daigan Morrow The Psyker for Farrah’s flagship, he is completely blind, and frail even though he is incredibly young.
Farrah’s Serf Hipp She tried and failed at being and Astartes, and was instead made into a Serf for Farrah’s personal use. She spends much of her time cleaning Farrah’s armor, and preparing the tribal elements that often decorate Farrah’s armor.
Favored Tactics/Battlefield Role: The Blazing Sisters Legion has a mindset of charging into battle, usually looking to hit an enemy’s frontline at it’s weakest point in order to break it. They typically form up prepared for short ranged, and close melee combat, their weapons usually consisting of chainswords, bolt pistols, and bolters. While they do have some armored vehicles it’s not nearly as many as other legions, as the tactics they typically follow in battle can’t use many vehicles except ones that deliver heavy artillery fire, though they do make use of many dreadnoughts.
Legion Characteristics/Ideology: They tend to be extremely stricts outside of combat, wearing only the appropriate attire issued to them, acting only as accorded to them by their chapters standards, and adhering to strict training schedules. During their time off from their schedules in which they can do what they please they can be often found playing games that require sharp minds knowing strategy, or sparring with each other in the training rooms. They are often respectful with other legion’s astartes, but can grow aggravated with a lack of discipline or lack of planning in any given situation.
Other: Farrah’s Flagship is named, Mellanippe
The Blazing Sisters typically put on warpaint before going into battle, a broad stripe of orange that goes from the end of one eye to the over including over the bridge of their nose, with thin strip of purple from the top of their top lip to the bottom of their chins.
The Blazing Sisters love to sing songs, especially when marching or in battle. They often sing when they gather together for updates from Farrah, who often leads them in their singing. Example of a Battle Song: Ad bellum duci imperator nobiscum Victoria nostra canimus clare omnibus audientibus , vox nostra ocreis vere nos annuntiamus , ducis nunquam moriamur
They often share stories, though they embellish them greatly as to evoke a greater fascination with the stories or make them so much more humorous.
Outside of their armor, The Blazing Sisters often wear Togas, or simple cloth skirts.
