<Shadow Master> @Uriel1339 @DeathKorpsOfKrieg "In fact I only heard rumors, but thank you for confirming." He said with delight in his voice and a fiendish grin behind his helmet. "Too bad you went with the boring theory... Not the action part. Oh well, your choice." Oraan shrugged, though in his gesture a bit of disappointment could be read. "Very well. I am going to rip your tongue out. Waaaait... I cannot just tell you that without doing it, now can I? What a.... Dilemma." The sadistic voice returned and walked up to Amraphel, knife in his left. "As for clones. No. They are just pathetic attempts of getting close to the original. You are yet to learn the truth... If you survive long enough." His right hand force the mouth open, he grabbed the tongue and simply cut it off. Soon after Amraphel felt an injection on his neck and drifted into sleep... <A bit later> The Apothecary awoke in the middle of the hallway, with an unconscious Amraphel next to him, upon first looks, especially from his Diagnostor Helmet, he could see that the tongue was removed, as well as his neck gene-seed had been harvested. OOC: Feel free to drag him back to wherever you wish, also vox works. <Not that guy> @WanderingJester Marine turned his attention towards Satoshi, at the same time ten hellguns did the same thing. "The Beastmaster is loud and troublesome, but the words fly like the wind," Ronin seeing now that this warrior was in fact, a Storm Lord, besides his twin curved swords and various trophies and honor markings adoring his armor, making him some sort of a Champion. "Name of a silent grove spoken, the Reborn's brother from across the stars revealed," ordering Stormtroopers to lower their weapons, Storm Lord gestured Satoshi to do the same. "I am Kajar. Follow," a simple word yet it sounded like (and of course was) an order. <Sigismund> @Loldoom "Indeed, for he is our Master. But he is with us only in his spirit, the choices must be done by us," the Chaplain nodded, "Of course, that is not much of a revelation, eh? However, what I'm trying to say is that you didn't do inherently the wrong thing. It was what you thought was best course of action. Sometimes logic demands such actions, sometimes our heart prevails. We are not vile Eldar to see into the future and use it to guide us, we do what our consciousness tells us. But like confidence, you are not born with leadership skills, you develop them over the years and making hard choices is a part of that trial each of us must pass in order to become worthy of His blessing." "You know Sigismund, the more I watch you the more I'm certain my hunch concerning you was on the spot. As far as I am concerned, you are free to don your old armor and weapons, if you chose so. But think for a moment, the one you were you are no longer. Knight died on the frozen fields of Knosos, the one who emerged from that blizzard is another man completely, stronger in body and purer in mind. The path you walk now is something I would like you to continue doing, until you reach its end. Then, we shall both see if my choice was indeed the right one."
Satoshi put away his weapons and said, "uh... please to meet you too, gene-brother." He whistled at Talon, who had finished 3/4th of the heart and is pretty full, flew over and landed on the Ronin's shoulder. The Venti gave a curious glance to Kajar. Satoshi turned to the bird, "Oh don't worry about him, that's Kajar, a Storm Lord. He might make fun of me with cryptic and mysterious words," the Ronin waved his hands dramatically as he said the last sentence, "but he wouldn't spill the blood of someone who shared the Primarch with him. Or he shouldn't, or is it couldn't? Whatever, we're not fighting right now, and I could use a sandwich." Talon cawed, almost like a laugh. "Hey! One of us haven't eaten yet, in case you haven't noticed." Talon ignored the last statement as the two followed the Storm Lord and his Stormtroppers.
Ranger nodded in acknowledgement to the Techmarine...though,he was baffled by Frater`s lack of knowledge/distinction between a Vanguard,Ranger and a Enginseer.Also...his priorities surely topped a Vanguard Alpha over weapons and armor for Hulk survivors... Zeth labeled him yellow and turned to Coatl,bursting to her in binary: ++Adept,can you assist us.Vanguard Alpha`s vox-caster is damaged.++hissed Zeth in static as he glanced at Alpha and then to his Long Las sitting there on the table. He could try and fix Alpha,his data-bank had the necessary knowledge for basic repair,but only for himself.To try and repair someone else without the proper ritual was tech-heresy! He picked up his Long Las and started dismantling it,trying to work his way to the focusing lenses since they are in dire need for calibration.Its best that they hurry up and (at least for the Ranger) try to find more 'resources' for the Techmarine.
- Rocky After their patrol, Rocky parted ways with Edd. Only Edd had been strong enough to carry the larger salvage and the Stromtroopers were making their way to the established bar. "I'll have you a seat at the cantina, drop those parts off for the Tech marine and then come back here. Got it?" "I got et Rocky, we'll be back real quick like." "Neey." "Even Bucky's helpin'." The little hoofed mammal had a can of some sort in his mouth. Which his fangs bit deeply into as he ground his slowly coming into place teeth. "Whatever, just don't bother the Lord Angelous or anyone else working. Meet back here and we'll see about getting you and Bucky fed." With that Edd went to the forge with Bucky at his heels. Rocky entered the cantina without much of a scene. The one thing they didn't seem to be low on was distilled drinks. Much to Rocky's degrees of liver poisoning, he ordered a stiff drink. The effects of over using recafe was taking it's toll. Seeing a group assembled, Rocky made for the now empty seat next to the ship Captain Jannika. "Hello again miss. This seat taken?" @Colapse - Edd Edd made his way to the forge. In his hands, he carried a large metal component with wires and seemed to still possess a spark of life. The other was a salvaged *blank*. As he walked, Edd noticed he wasn't the only one headed towards the Forge. "Hello second en command Feron. Nice job with dat Warboss an etz meganobs. Found some bitz from dat fight fer da Tech-marine. Have ya met Bucky? He's me lil buddy from da forest planet. Say hello Bucky... Bucky?" It was that moment Edd noticed Bucky had wandered away from him. Edd freak out in 5, 4, 3, 2,... In the distance a faint distressed "Neey" sound echoed not far from where Sigismund and the Watch Commander stood. OOC: Don't have to interact if ya don't want to. Just branching out.
<Feron> "Was a group effort Edd, just like what everyone did down on the planet. Good job bringing up those people. " Momentarily lifting his hands away from his work Edd might see Skull Splitter's head without the handle, currently under renovation it seemed. He didn't need to know who or what Bucky was to foresee incoming Ogryn panic attack and reached a placating hand forth toward his shoulder. "Deep breathes there big guy. Stay calm or ya might scare Bucky okay? " Using the other hand to access his comms-bead he carried on over their open channel. "Feron to all awake and sober personnel, if you come across a 'Bucky' please let myself or Edward know, our Ogryn friend here seems to of misplaced him. " For all the Salamander knew it could of been a stuffed animal, a real enough possibility with Ogryns.
"Thank you sir, but I would put one last test for myself before taking my old weapons and armour back: I could not help but hear that that there was a breach in sector C, I assume it's into one on of the other hulks. I would be honored to guard the breach while it is closed or even help cleanse the other shi"- "MEAH!" Sigismund snapped round to face the interlopper, naturally falling into a combat stance to face the... Thing? What in the warp was that? It looked sort of like a deer but with giant fangs. Whatever the hell it was, it started nibbling the hem of his red robe. Unsure of quite what to do, the now rather confused knight gently pushed it away, leaving a damp patch on his sleeve.
<The Apothecary> Without a second thought he grabbed Amraphel, putting his arm around himself and marching toward the Apothecarion, contacting Marmaroth only for now. "It seems that Amraphel and I both had been ambushed. Not sure what has occurred, but someone took Amraphels gene-seed, if you know anything about our Blackshield brother and want to discuss it... I am taking him to the Apothecarion. Also relay to Angelous please that we need a Bionic Tongue, it seems that someone took Amraphels organic one as trophy." And with that he made the way back, surprised that his own gene-seed was not taken, perhaps the purity of the founder chapter was not worth it? Perhaps Amraphel had traces of certain mutations that were desired to be taken? Like if he would be a Blood Raven that it would be regarding their amount of Psykers.
<Workshop> Angelous, @High_Adept_Zeth @Casavay @Xaphen As the Techmarine left them to "fend for themselves", the trio could see that they were indeed in a workshop that was in the process of being created. Using space of a huge chamber separated in couple of smaller ones, they could see that the main place was taken by a huge vehicle, an Astartes battle tank type Land Raider, pattern unknown at the moment since it was in process of switching and adding different armament, on its blessed hull words "Edge of Salvation" was written in golden script. The army of servitors ran around the entire chamber, being organized by a group of tech adepts and some human serfs. Little would they know that this "army" was only a shadow of its former self, the crew of "Angelfall" suffering heavy losses during their last mission, the men from Niona only able to reinforce them a bit, which was not nearly enough for what they needed, especially in a huge place like this. In one smaller side chamber, they could also spot something that was slowly beginning to resemble an armory, a number of serfs working to place all ammo carts in their place and also take care of their supply of spare weapons - hellguns, lasguns, bolters, chainswords and so on. Interestingly enough, in front of the chamber there was a huge pile of various boxes, lockers, safe deposits and similar things, all bearing some sort of a scar or a marking that could be attributed to Orks. Apparently, this was some sort of a loot hoard Angelous and his men found when clearing this part of the Hulk, placing in once spot all those items they found that were intact and still had to go through them to see if there is anything of value there. (OOC @High_Adept_Zeth GM hint for you and your reward ) <Chaplain> @Loldoom "I believe that's Bucky," Chaplain smiled as petted little animal, "Marmaroth to Feron. Edd's companion is with me, will order someone to escort it back to you. Marmaroth out." Turning his attention back to Sigismund, the Marine nodded, "I applaud your commitment, however Kajar already dealt with it and is bringing what he found here as we speak. I want you to stay with me when he arrives, and tell me what you think of it. Since I spoke about those choices, now is the moment we enforce it. And by we I mean you. This one's fate will be in your hands, Sigismund. Let's see how that goes." Moment later, a group of warriors entered the room, ten Stormtroopers led by their Storm Lord arrived, bringing another Space Marine with them (@WanderingJester ). Satoshi could see that he was brought in front of two warriors, one human dressed in black robes with an ancient looking sword on his hip and a sign of Aquilla chained around his neck (OOC I apologize to @Loldoom for taking this control, just wanted to show Jester what he sees) and a Space Marine. This Space Marine wore a delicately artificed suit of power armor, black in color with silver rim. On one shoulder pad he had a familiar sign of the Inquisition etched in a field surrounded by angelic wings, while on the other those same wings spread out to frame a buzz-saw with a single red tear in it (OOC like my sig ofc ). Similar to his armor, his helmet was piece of masterfully crafted gear made to mimic a skull with yet another small red tear below his right eye lense. On his left hand he had mounted Angelous-pattern bolter with a drum-feed magazine while in his other hand he held an ominous looking single-edged black axe, with a vicious hook on the other side. Behind something that looked like an iron halo relic, a long coat of black fur was spread around his shoulders and back, adding to the fact he carried various trophies hooked on both his belt and below shoulders, heads of Eldar, Tyranids, Chaos Space Marines and other enemies of Man. That look of a warlord from a feral world was somewhat increased after he spoke, his voice both commanding and diplomatic at the same time, with a touch of primal savagery. "What does a Ronin doing all the way out here, so far away from Edo? Especially with a familiar such as that?" the man spoke, and Satoshi could swear he heard a low chuckle. @Uriel1339 "When you learn more on what exactly happened, let me know," Marmaroth replied via vox, the others not being able to hear him. "Commissar will be with you shortly, bringing the reinforcements. Also, I sent for Angelous to come and provide assistance. I haven't heard of an Ork taking geneseed but still...the other possibility is highly unlikely." <Canteen> OOC others, feel free to talk a bit more if you wish, get to know each other and stuff or go out and meet other ppl "Of course not," Jannika smiled as Rocky took a seat next to her. The rest were in the middle of some talk, Gaius pompously describing his awesome piloting skills. "That Howling Griffon is just showing off," Captain said to Ratling, pouring him a drink. "The Sister over there said it rocks," taking a shot, Jannika drank her share in less than two seconds, before slamming the glass down. "And she is right!" laughing, she waited for Rocky to do the same before asking him a question, "So Rocky, does this new establishment matches your requirements?"
"You may want to take it easy with that captain" as tempestus spoke he turned "i leave you here for now carlarth, i have a few things i need repairing so i should go and see our new machanus section" with that the dreadnaught left the room while carlarth looked at the captain "Hello there captain, i am carlarth former captain of the wrath of shadows battle barge, which is now part of this hulk" as she spoke she laughed "would you all mind if i asked whats this chaplin marmoroth like, little veritas mentioned him, also is there a reason you all know of why veritas calls himself tempestus now" The workshop As tempestus walked in he looked around to see if angelous was there but seeing as he wasnt he saw his serfs head over and guide him to an area they can repair his sarcofigus and left arm
@WanderingJester The knight couldn't help but size up the newcomer's equipment and appearance, which were quite strange and outlandish to his eyes. His armour was powered it seemed, rather different to the other suits he had seen so far. As far as weaponry went, it seemed that this new marine also had some type of sword-staff or glaive with him, again subtly different from others he had seen. The sword was perhaps the most different one, from the shape of the sheath it was curved like a sabre but the hilt was long enough for 2 hands to grip. For the moment however, the knight reserved comment as this new guy had yet to respond to Marmaroth's question. OOC: Hope I didn't butcher his look, I just kinda guessed space samurai
