I don't need Urian to analyse my character preferences. They're a) female b) not in a leadership position c) either sarcastic or amicable d) either prideful or meek e) heavily specialised f) usually ignored ever since I came back after my failed attempt to never come back. @CommissarGaunt - The only thing I'm confused about is why Ordo Xenos is so damn popular. --- We're playing Hereticus. Your Inquisitor is a Radical-in-Denial by the (code)name of Lucifer. She's aware of the name's pompousness, as am I. Her reputation is that of a burner of worlds. Those who have worked with her for a longer time know she's more of a cloak-and-dagger person with an odd case of things going very wrong around her operations - causing the burning of worlds. Aliens are something she'd rather see dead or in chains than in her retinue - this means I am allowing no xenos characters save for one who'd talked to me about it immediately upon this RP being announced and is aware of the restrictions. Mutants and Psykers are fine but mistrusted. Astartes are... well, Astartes. Both Astartes slots are taken already, unless either player does not want to play one anymore. Considering the apparent size of the playerbase, the only proper retinue member beyond you is a Gor by the name of Twice-Horn, Lucifer's bodyguard. --- Character Sheet: Spoiler Name: Your character's full name. Plus title, if you so desire and it is appropriate. Gender: Apparent sex goes here. I haven't missed the mention of 'tumblr adjectives'. Please refrain from going on a tangent about that topic. Age: Go crazy. But avoid child soldiers. Species: What kind of people can your character create fertile offspring with? Ligers don't count. Class: Your character type or profession or whatever, where applicable created by a faction plus a role; e.g. "Deathwatch Assault Marine", "Sororitas Sister of Battle", "Imperial Guard Scion" etc. You may get creative, but as with anything I will reserve the right to nix anything and rework it with you. --- Weapons: Your character's weapons. Limit it to three at most, please. A matched set of dual-wield weapons counts as a single choice. Since you're not bloody piglets, master-crafted/named weapons of awesomeness are fine. Armour: Your character's armour. I'm not going to allow Terminator Armour; if you have better armour than the Inquisitor has access to, you have too much. Special Equipment: Any equipment not in either category. --- Appearance: Self-explanatory! Personality: Also self-explanatory. No need for indepth analyses, but a basic description should be present. Three sentences at minimum. Prior History: Your character's history leading up to their heroic feat. Again, no need for indepth stuff (unless you want to!), but some minimum effort would be nice. Recruitment: What made your character attract Lucifer's attention? It can be nearly everything, from a specific purpose ("She needed a translator who could breathe water") to a certain history/heroic feat. Just keep in mind that 'Killed 10.000 Space Marines with a rusty Spoon' is not a heroic, exceptional thing but rather just kind of sueish without proper explanation.
Name: Iron Maiden Celes 'Celestia' Ferronica van Alderson ( @TechCaptain -wink wink nudge nudge- ) Gender: Female Age: 72 (no genetical altering of rejuvenation or such; thus yes she is an old woman) Species: Human. Class: Adeptus Mechanics (Main Faction) → Sect of Absolute Truth (Mechanicus Fanon Sub-Cult) → Iron Maiden (Class as well as title for being a creator & mother of 'living' things such as Servo-Skulls, Servitors, etc.) --- Weapons: Omnissian Power Axe (needs to be held 2-Handed. Also more a symbol of rank than a weapon) Inferno Pistol (primary weapon, 1 handed melta pistol) Armour: Flak-equivalent armor: Blessed thin-layered Adamantine chainmail + Cloak Silver Robes with red trims - the distinctive colors the Sect of Absolute Truth (Usually wears these) Red Robes with silver trims - for more traditional clothes of a Cult Mechanicus member (Wears these when a big Mechanicus presence is expected to better blend in) Sealed Environmental Protection Helmet (built-in respirator, vox-system, etc.), usually dangling from the hips, ready to use when needed. Special Equipment: 1 Universal-Purpose Mechadendrites with Data-tether included 1 Repair-Tool Mechadendrite with Plasmacutter, welding tools, adjustable wrench, etc. Mind-Impulse-Unit (calibrated onto the children to properly control them) Children: Warrior Cherub 'Dorn' - Equipped with Gladius and Shield as well as hardened Adamantium plating. 'Nobody messes with mother'. Speaks & reads Imperial Fists ciphers. 'Dorn' is bigger and bulkier than most other Cherubs to actually cove combat capability. He is more the size of a 12 year old child, compared to an almost infant that most cherubs are. He was created for the sole purpose of being a true Angel of Death in appearance and purpose. Skull Probe 'Corax' - (special version of Servo-Skull) - Equipped with internal Auspex and Multi-Vision (Night, Heat, etc.), cameleoline paint & weak cloaking abilities, recording tools (Pict and/or Audio) + secure live-feed to Celes for direct transmission. Speaks & reads Raven Guard ciphers. 'Mother wants to know, so I find out.' Servo-Skull 'Guilliman' - Servo-Skull equipped with a Bolt-pistol, Light Adamantium plating, Targeter and containing parts of the Codex Astartes on the hard drive. Speaks & reads Ultramarine Chapter ciphers. 'Courage and Honour to Mother.' Haemoncolyte 'Sanguinius' - Special genetically enhanced Haemoncolyte to live roughly to the age of 77 years, compared to their regular counterparts which die rather quickly. 'He' is at the age of 57 currently. Due to living in symbiosis with Celes, they keep one another alive. He lives through her food, water intake, etc. And he on absorbs poisons, toxins and other for his mother deadly inflictions (i.e. cancer) into him. Most of these agents are basically contained within him until Celes can treat herself and him to flood it out of their system. Too severe toxins (i.e. Dark Eldar splinter ammunition) may cause him to have a shorter lifespan. --- Coming Soon - to see if equipment is approved. Appearance: Self-explanatory! Personality: Also self-explanatory. No need for indepth analyses, but a basic description should be present. Three sentences at minimum. Prior History: Your character's history leading up to their heroic feat. Again, no need for indepth stuff (unless you want to!), but some minimum effort would be nice. Recruitment: What made your character attract Lucifer's attention? It can be nearly everything, from a specific purpose ("She needed a translator who could breathe water") to a certain history/heroic feat.

Name: Lianna Brooks Gender: Female. Age: 23 Species: HUMAN. Class: Imperial Kasrkin --- Weapons: Hotshot Lasgun (Bayonetted, unless that counts as a second weapon), Hotshot laspistol. Third weapon is whatever the Inquisitor so desires for her operations, whether it melee or ranged. Armour: Simple ol' (Environmentally Sealed) Carapace Armour. Special Equipment: Krak & Frag Grenades, (Optional: ONE melta bomb), Cameleoline cloak - personal supplies (ie: backpack of rations, Hotshot lasgun / laspistol charge packs (5 each), and medkit - as well as up to 3 (insert-clip-name-here) of third weapon, per the Inquisitor's wishes. Numerous other weapons (per lore, they carry a damn lot: respirator, micro-bead, dogtags, the magnificent Imperial Infantryman's Uplifting Primer, etc. - basic personal supplies) --- Appearance: The woman in question wasn't much special - standing at 6 foot and with ample muscle. She had dark brown/black hair with a set of violet eyes - like all Cadians. There were numerous scars over her form from battle - whilst numerous were Cultist blades, they were not the sole causes of injury. A particular scar would be one that ran across her entire right cheek from the jawline up to just below her eye. Her face was plain, for that matter - no real features that made her stand out - a straight-edged nose, not-too-large lips and eyes that constantly darted around, watching what they could. Personality: She was a soldier, through & through - an obedient mindset that did its duty to follow orders, and scold those under her who may question such duties, provided that whatever orders were not downright incompetent. Though even as a soldier she DID have a mind of her own - not very much in the way of tactics, she did at least try to think ahead on whatever the enemy may react with. Such was Chaos, where fights in the city streets often lead to ambushes, and having to prepare with every step a Cadian took. However, she did her best to remain kind, should it not risk the mission in question - having seen the Acts of Chaos Heretics, she always was one who did her best to at least put effort into saving civilians or preventing unneccessary casualties. Prior History: In terms of history, she was no different from many other Cadians - having been able to field-strip a lasgun at a young age, and serving her teenage years as a Whiteshield, she often played with her sister and brothers, and numerous other friends, at games like 'Find the Heretic' or small acts of duty such as basic aid around the Chimeras. Once she'd reach the age of Sixteen was when her training as a Kasrkin had begun - a long, arduous task that admittedly, numerous times, nearly been failed. However, such an honour was earned, and she'd spent the remainder of her life as one of the Elite. The reason she had been chosen however, was as much luck as skill - she and the rest of the platoon had been sent to an outpost that was under attack, where the Sergeant had ordered them to hold the Line. Easier said than done - but she'd still succeeded all the same in surviving, better than her Sergeant had. In fact, it was due to her picking up the Banner and ordering a charge on the outpost - and then the usage of its heavy bolters - had the Outpost been kept at all. The luck in question was not only surviving such a raid, but in being noticed: history did not reward -all- heroes, after all, and it was luck that made her gain the rewards. Recruitment: On one particular mission onto an Imperial World, she, her own and another Kasrkin squadron - along with four other Stormtrooper squadrons - were said to merely help defend a City Port, with the aid of a full platoon of Guardsmen. Easy enough, as one would think, were it not for the Chaos threat. The fight itself was horrid and long - lasting numerous months even, and most not even being full-on battles but small skirmishes throughout the streets & buildings - sabotaging Chaos vehicles and supplies, and making sure it was generally a living hell for the Heretical bastards from the start. The amazement in this was when in the late Winter at one particular blizzard, when the Cultists was starting to be lead by a group of Chaos Chosen - a total of five of them, with one 'Chosen Champion'. Once they appeared, the ragtag group of Chaos that were here & there fought harder - the hundred-plus Imperials were swiftly whittled down, and within days they numbered at only forty-six, her own squad merely at six including herself. Lianna knew she had to think of a plan - and admittedly, the plan itself was one of insanity. The planning itself took another two days but they had managed to set it up - using numerous lasgun packs to become makeshift grenades and set them up to pressure plates on a street, which would then be attached to a detonator. The Chosen champion was the sole survivor of this and, in his rage, charged at the cheering guardsmen after his Cultist minions had fled - tearing down well over twenty of the men & women. It was only due to her picking up one of the meltaguns nearby and the concentrated fire by her squadmates, had they survived that day. Hours later, reports had come in that the Chaos forces in the area were disorganized and, with reinforcements after the Blizzard had let up, the woman and her friends had proudly and swiftly cleaned up what Heretical Scum had gotten away. After all, the Emperor Protects - Chaos, does not.
With the already large player base, I'm just gonna go out on a limb and say heavy weapons 'team' is a no go? I have another character in mind either way.
