[OOC] Whispers in the dark (WH40K Chaos space marine RP)

[agentmanatee]

Then we shall wait

[SimplyJohn]

I'm not too comfortable without another unbelieving Night Lord to accompany Sorthraal.

@SillyGoy

If the worst comes to the worst and we don't find any more supplicants to the Dark Powers you could always write in an NPC to accompany you.

I'm planning on having Crixus dragging around his pet, a broken, half-naked harlequin, who'll he'll be able to torment whenever we're waiting for fresh posts (she's one of the 'trophies' listed on his CS.)

[SillyGoy]

@SimplyJohn

That is a good idea. He wouldn't be an NPC, though, not under my control. If no unbelievers sign up, then perhaps I could expand my character sheet to fill out another character?

[agentmanatee]

Yea you can if no other holdouts sign up

[Earnest Evans]

How many players do you want? I'm interested.

[agentmanatee]

Anywhere from 5 to 8, we can start when we get 5

[agentmanatee]

That's 5 to 8 including me @Earnest Evans

[The Whacko]

Name: Amphion, The Metal Father

Age: 2000 by gift of the Warp, 800 by the armor chronomitor.

Appearance:

Beneath the armor, his skin is ashen and cracked, his eyes orange, hairless and sporting a forest of needle-like teeth behind a lipless mouth. Occasionally a forked tongue will taste the air.

Marine Type: Sorcerer

Devotion: Undivided

Biography: There is not too much to be said about the abomination named Amphion. Once a Librarian of the Iron Snakes, his fall to the Ruinous Powers came after the purge of Telos 3, where a warband of the Word Bearers had left behind several artifacts in their deaths. The pages of one time opened Amphion's eyes to the lies of the Imperium, and from there he set out to seek the favor of the Chaos Gods.

He took many a pilgrimage, manipulating the oppressed men and mutants of the Imperium into uncovering arcane secrets for their Metal Father, furthering his unholy knowledge. Eventually, he made his way to the Night Lords, but now he is disgusted with their lack of pioty.

Now new whispers call to him, and he has answered...

Personality: He's...a sorcerer. You know these guys. More loyal than most, though.

Personal Skills: An accomplished psyker with extensive knowledge of the arcane. Also adept at manipulation, especially of the mutant outcasts of Hive Worlds.

Gear: Plasma Pistol, Sorcerer's staff, Mark VII Power Armor, Chaos Tome.

Hope this is cool.

[SillyGoy]

We are supposed to be Night Lords, Whacko.

[The Whacko]

Hmm, might has misread then. Was under the impression t'would be a new warband pulled from Night Lord defectors.

[SillyGoy]

We are. So perhaps you should change that bit about being an Iron Snake Librarian?

[The Whacko]

Didn't think that would be an issue. Pretty sure traitor marines have wandered around to join Traitor Legions before.

[SillyGoy]

Ah. Didn't read that part. Sorry.

[SimplyJohn]

@The Whacko Similar situation with my own character. As a Raptor he's technically not associated with any Legion anymore. I just liked the backstory of the VIIIth Legion being comprised of conscripted prisons and used that to make him the worst of the worst.

Not so much corrupted by Chaos, as so much claimed by them as a kindred spirit. >D

[agentmanatee]

@The Whacko your accepted! Move him to the characters page

[SillyGoy]

Can we start now, Apostle?

[agentmanatee]

Indeed we may. I will have the first post up soon... and call me "Father" Sorthraal, not apostle

[agentmanatee]

And so we begin, my children

@SillyGoy@Jyoliod@The Whacko@SimplyJohn

[agentmanatee]

So... anyone gonna post tonight

[Jyoliod]

Night just ended for me and I've yet to rest my head, I doubt I could string together a coherent post right now but I've already got an idea of how to kick things off with Quel. I'll start my post the moment I get back to my PC after I awaken. Additionally, I didn't get the notification for the post before your last that had my mention in it, that's odd.
