((So that was to Nero?)) Unamused by this display Nero looks at the pirate with his cold eyes. Surely he jests. Before Nero could say anything the pirate had jumped from his seat and was sauntering down the hall towards the arenas. Valinus looked to him and asked permission to attend the session. Talking about inspiration. "How could I starve an artist of your caliber? I've no choice but to accept." He stood up, looking to Sigvald. He gave a puzzling look, that begged to ask if the pirate had a death wish. Then turned around and followed suit. "Very well, little parrot, to what terms are we to agree upon?"
"Oh this should be good...." Sigvald muttered, setting his food aside to stand. In truth he liked the pirate and would loathe to see him hurt badly, but on the other hand....he did ask for it.
Vanilus took position next to Sigvald as he also was interested in the outcome of the duel it seemed. Not sure if Nero meant it as joke or not, he decided for the better outcome to not reply the apparent sarcastic remark. "I believe that neither will win." He eventually said to Sigvald directly.
He glanced at Vanilus "Perhaps it'll be a draw, perhaps one will find victory in an unusual way...ultimately victory of defeat does not matter so much as what you experience and learn from the trial."
"I do not say a draw. I say neither will win. Whatever happens, both lose. Just like both parties lost with the outcome of the Horus Heresy. Chaos lost their best leader, the Imperium lost their entire foundation of logic and reason. This duel will be no different. Both parties will lose something. Just what, that is the question." Vanilus replied with a smile.
(It is rare I make a caracter description but lets see how it goes ) Name: General Gak The Mad Class: Chaos Berserker Rank: Lost General Standard loadout: Flesh-Ripper chain-sword Power sword Bolters vary but for some reason he prefers the Rage Spitter Unique wargear attributes: Gak`s wargear is a strange dark purple-blue color with the different eges and details being gray, his armor represents Iron Wariors with the way it shines and at the same time his armor seems thicker then normal Chaos Space Marine armor, it also have many scratches and wounds after the many battles Gak have been in, and some places it seems like blood is using out. Gak`s helmet looks very much like a normal CSM helmet except that the air filter have gray metal teeth around it. Physical describtion: The thick armor is making him taler and bigger then normal humans, but beside that no one knows how Gak looks like since he never remove his helmet in puplick. Notable characteristics: General Gak always wear his helmet and armor because of somthing that happend a long time ago that, not only made him go mad and join Chaos, but also made him forget his real name. Gak always talk with a mix of arrogance and anger but he is nerver violent towards his brothers except provoked. In battle Gak is a fearless tank that dont care how many is shoting at him, the only thing he thinks about is to stick his swords in the enemys stomick and split them in two, he finds pleasure in seeing the fear in his enemys eyes as the life is drifting away from them, something he also enjoy is to drive enemys into madness and make them join the god he serve, either willingly ore unwillingly. Gak may be very cold on the battlefield but when he isnt fighting he enjoy being with his brothers on a Battle Barge ore other places out of combat. Gak is a newer servant of Slaneesh so some of the traditions might seem strange to him. ========================================================================= The General slowly walked inside the dining hall, his heavy armor hitting the ground and a low mumbling was the only sound that came from him as he walked towards a table, after sitting down he looked around and saw the people around the arena "seems like the fun already have begun" he said while resting, too tired to move from his seat.
Sigvald nodded slowly "...I see, yes that's a possible outcome. Though, I question if we truly lost our best leader, Abaddon is far more effective then Horus. He was named the 'Sacrificed King' for a reason after all."
Aradax walked to the arena with his party side to side with him and the Traitor Marines following. "I cannot tell you the last time I had to fight an Astarte, the battle will be different, but hopefully gives the same amount of pleasure." said Aradax as he quick spun around to look at Nero. "So this will be an all Melee duel, no grenades or guns. You may use your Pretty little talons, while I will use my Chainsword, Or if you are scared having your weapons disposed of, we can use Dueling swords. I would love to see your "claws" in action!" Aradax took off his holster, ammo, grenades, and anything that would not be used in coming battle, as he was addressing Nero. After a few seconds of whispering in his helmet, one of the renegades collected his gear while the other headed the same way they had entered.
"I am in no position to argue about such things, I am just a mere mortal." Vanilus replied, not desiring to argue about past events, especially if he would end up arguing against his lord.
Sigvald gave Gak a brief nod before turning back to Vanilus "You *should* argue about such things Vanilus, do you think I will reduce you to a grimy pile of paste on the ground because you have a dissenting opinion or give me a piece of bad news? Countless other Chaos Lords would i'm sure, but i'm not five and ten thousand years has taught me...if not them...that resources are not to be squandered."
