Bio
Greetings,
I am Jb; Briton by birth, roleplayer by my own hand, and lover of literature. I am also an amateur historian, a receiver of a Bachelors degree in Ancient and Medieval History - quite a useless degree, actually - and would like to think that I'm a fair, honest and open guy.
As far as RP'ing goes, I'm pretty open to most things really, all you need to do is ask! :)
So, if you've ever any questions for me, wish to speak about RP's involving myself or run by myself, or simply feel like a chat, don't be afraid to get in touch.
Even with awesome RPers, it has come to that point where nothing is happening, that point where I feel like I should just stop and let this thread rot into nothingness; I'm gonna get another post up, probably tomorrow, and then if this continues...well...just another brick in the wall, I suppose.
Name: Korvan Yarr the Flesh Changer (and Irasesh, true name unknown to mortals...except him...her...self)
Age: 10,000+
Description: Korvan Yarr was always an alluring figure, even among a legion as well known for fine-looking specimens as the Emperor's Children, a selfish narcissist from the very beginning he nevertheless joined whole-heartedly in his legions quest for utter perfection in all things. Before allowing himself to become the symbiotic host of a Herald of Slaanesh, he was already a striking figure - tall even for an Astartes, with a fine squared jaw, piercing eyes of glittering blue, his delicate brow topped by a mane of golden hair and his skin as white as porcelain. His armour was equally fine, always polished to a shine, the purple and gold decorated with symbols of the Aquila and his own legion insignia and any scratch or mark always repaired or covered as soon as possible.
After his possession he was much changed, his once masculine features taking on a more feminine look - his once blue eyes filling with black, his fine teeth becoming more pointed like those of a predator, his tongue elongating in his mouth and his hair turning into a writhing tentacle-like mass upon his head. If anything his face become more delicate, his jawline becoming more angular and his lips fuller, his cheekbones more prominent and his eyebrows thinner...yes, he also has the ubiquitous single breast in representation of his patron deity. The final thing was the changing of his skin-tone from ivory white to a pinkish-purple hue.
His armour on the other hand changed little, the symbols replaced for those of his patron, the overall look taking on a more 'Chaotic' nature in terms of spikes, elongated ports on his backpack etc and a more garish colour scheme of pink, white and black.
It must be said, however, that like all who are possessed - especially those that are inhabited by entities who they have bought into a more 'equal' arrangement, Korvan Yarr can (and does) change his body during battle. Sometimes sprouting a wicked scythe-like claw, perhaps his legs turning more into oddly jointed appendages ending in claws, it simply depends on his own whims and those of the Daemonic force within him.
Faction: Chaos
Rank and Force Type: Possessed Champion of Slaanesh, leading a Slaaneshi Warhost
Primary Skills: Subterfuge, torture, raiding and fast assaults and Daemonic allies (not a skill, but it helps)
Planet of Origin: Various, although Korvan Yarr himself came from Chemos
Command Details:
40 Daemonettes of Slaanesh, including a Herald
30 Noise Marines
80 Chaos Marines of the Emperor's Children Legion, including 8 Anointed of Slaanesh
100 Chaos Marines of various renegade and heretical Chapters and warbands, a number of them being Sergeants or above, including one former Chapter Master
10 Rhinos
Formerly the 10th Inoxian Rifles, the entire regiment was corrupted to a man after being exposed to the delightful symphonies of Slaanesh, after massacring their Commissars they then turned upon their allies and won a great victory for their patron - both Korvan Yarr and Slaanesh.
The 10th was a mechanised infantry regiment, with around 7,000 soldiers and enough Chimera transports to take them all from point A to point B in relative safety. Standard Imperial armament is theirs, with their once grey uniforms daubed in garish colours and heretical symbols that would show them as true followers of the Dark Prince.
Once known as the 327th Freinheight Artillery Regiment, this group of some 100 Basilisk artillery pieces now serve the Dark Prince, their Earthshaker cannons singing a cacophony of glorious noise as they rain death from the heavens.
The Astartes was once a Battle Barge of the Emperor's Children, now serving as the flagship for Korvan Yarr and his primary host of Chaotic Astartes and their daemonic allies. It is not wholly known how he came to command the vessel but, as with many servants of Slaanesh, it likely involved a lot of underhanded tactics, backstabbing and honeyed words. Like all vessels of this type it is heavily armed and armoured, more than capable of going toe-to-toe with most Imperial vessels of the present day, used primarily as a planet-raider and vast holding pen for whatever fleshy loot the Host can take.
Tried it before and didn't get very far, history just seems to be beyond the grasp of many folks - they don't like reading outside the subject... - but I will certainly wish you all the luck with this and may it flourish.
Right folks, you've got until Thursday 3rd to post up what you want to - I'll be doing a post in between - then we're off to Neverland! That being space and our next warzone.
@Dannyrulx Also why would the pay be going to Cadia? It'd be kept in a regimental Ministorum account, propably watched over by the Quartermaster/Ministorum adept(s). The only money going to Cadia would be for your fresh uniforms and equipment.
@Dannyrulx As a pyrotechnic officer, she'll likely be expected to train up the rest of her crew as a complete pyrotechnic squad. Yes, she can keep her explosives.
@Rultaos They'll be a lot of grumbling, yes, but may even get them back at some point.
@mackielars Read the above, things can very quickly change. ;)
As with every military formation you're being stripped of self, part of a regiment, a uniform formation, even the Colonel is a Tallarn Guardsmen without his headscarf and so on. So you'll follow Cadian customs, exercises, and so on until otherwise.
Things like their own language though is fine, but you'll still need to use Cadian battle-cant. Even the Hirisit.
