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.

'Inquisitor, are you hurt?'

Kliment peered up from where he had found himself, and up...and up...apparently it was the overly large Hospitaller that had found him; as he looked up at the armoured Amazon, all he could think – ignoring the pain in his bruised but not missing arm – was that he must truly be blessed by the God-Emperor.

“No, Sister Christina,” he said, deliberately using her name even in the heat of battle, “my armour took the brunt of the explosive blast, Emperor be praised, we need to get mov-”

The explosion a mere few feet away was enough to catch the attention of the Emperor's powerful servant, the older man struggling to rise and watching with a look of disgust as their former attackers now sought to realign themselves with the world around them, the twin grenades having landed dead centre and scattered them thoroughly.

Unnoticed, at least by Kliment, was that the heavy stubber had ceased its constant barrage...and that the elevator door beyond the now disjointed squad of heretical Stormtroopers had opened.

Streaming from the entranceway were figures bearing the Aquila upon their flak, lasguns held ready in their hands and bayonets affixed, soldiers of the Athegan Twenty-Seventh by the looks of them – a senior and veteran regiment of Guardsmen, their uniforms of resplendent purple showing clearly beside the drab and dull uniforms of the unbelieving PDF troopers and their more heavily armed support.

After them came a singular squad - almost identical in appearance to those that had about to launch another missile in the direction of the Emperor's holy daughters – their Hellguns cutting down those adversaries that tried to resist. In the middle of the half-a-dozen elite fighters was a slender but powerful man, a las-pistol held in one hand and a cane helping to support him in the other. Though he moved slower than the rest, it was clear from his rod-straight back and keen eyes that he was no stranger to military service or warfare.

“Governor Heidric Von Behner,” breathed the Inquisitor as he took his place beside Alexa, “Sister, please be so kind as to gather what living prisoners you can and bring them to me. Get your fellows to help. By the Emperor's intervention and your skills as warriors, I believe this battle is won.”

Won it was, well and truly, the backbone of the heretics and renegades shattered into a thousand pieces and the arrival onto the platform of the Governor, and the remainder of the Sororitas, only solidifying the 'victory'.

All there was to do now was regroup, consolidate, and see what information could be gleaned from these traitors.
@Necroes No and no.

Not unless you want to trade off, and have Urgrugg sustain a similar level of injury.
Hmm... @Jbcool would it be okay to off the mutated decurion as a show of force, or do you need him for something special?


Firstly, he's not even mutated - not sure where/how you got that idea - secondly, it would not be okay.
@BCTheEntity It's a quite large likelihood...which is fine.
@Ollumhammersong

Oh I don't disagree...not sure why you're telling me though, I didn't suggest getting more folks.

If people are burnt out, then that's fine.
@Zelosse@Wraithblade6@DracoLunaris

Feel free to dispatch the Mandrakes in whatever way you see fit, if @Hank, @DepressedSoviet, and @Andreyich don't show - and I imagine they wont - then feel free to kill off their characters however you'd like to as well. Oh, and Dead cruisers Sanguinary Priest as well.

If you need to make the situation worse, well, you could do worse than adding in some Wracks from another section of the Slave pens.
Going badly, really, hence why this hasn't started yet.

I'll give it another day and then we're off, apologies on the late start - if anyone who hasn't got be a sheet yet could do so, I'd appreciate it.
@Wraithblade6@Necroes@Klomster@BCTheEntity@Sophrus@DepressedSoviet@Hank

Right, seems Hank and Soviet are probably AWOL, so I'd advise BC and Soph to simply get on toward where everyone else is.

Yes, there is a High Lord Inquisitor and nearly a thousand Sororitas about to make things worse as well, so I'd make it pretty snappy if you wish to get out alive.

That's all, really.
@Necroes@Wraithblade6@Klomster

It did not matter how it had happened, nor would it have mattered to those already aboard the hulk even if they had known, but to High Lord Inquisitor Elizabeth Marcus there was no more mortifying moment in her entire existence; there was something...someone inside her, and there was little to nothing that she could do about it. Though she had tried every text and verse she could recall from her days of training, though she had fought with a will of iron and near unbreakable faith, they had burrowed their way into her mind like a nail driven in with the surgical precision of a medicae implanting a chip within ones skull.

Certainly it was true that such a leap, the possession of another’s body and mind, was something that the Mon-Keigh or Dark cousins of the Eldar were more well known for, and Celalyth had been able to read very clearly the expression of Farseer Gilsadra when she had asked this task of her. An entire hour of meditation had been needed to decide to go forward with this manipulation, but after feeling the warp-presence grow aboard the drifting wreckages – some bastard corruption of ruinous trickery and Greenskin magic – she had been only too happy to help in whatever way she could.

Gazing through the eyes of the High Lord and feeling her raw physical power – as well as her authority over the rest of these Mon-Keigh warrior women – Gilsadra felt the corners of her lips twitch, growing even more so as she gave the order for an all-out assault upon the hulk to begin.

“We must capture that xenos and purge whomever else remains upon the vessel,” came the voice of Elizabeth through the vox and squad comms, “Canoness-Preceptor Sephella will lead the way, her unwavering Sisters at the fore. We must strike were the signal is strongest! Prepare to launch the boarding vessels, we make for the Merciless Aquila with all haste.”




Vedius hit the side of his helmet again with the flat of his palm, the HUD once more smoothing out the staggered runes and a low growl emerging from his throat. He had made his way through the corridors of the Aquila will all speed, leaving an obvious trail for any to follow in his determination to reach the cargo before any other did, cradling the Phobos-pattern bolter in his hands and scanning every corner as he moved.

So far all he had found was the dead, but he knew that they would be coming – not that he could say who they were, but he knew that such a prize would not be left unmolested for long; according to his armours internal chronometer, he had slept for over ten-thousand years! That must surely be an error though, the machine spirit playing a trick maybe? There was no way such a thing was possible, unless one had been within the warp, and he did not remember such a thing happening.

The Decurion paused briefly, having come to the site of the fiercest fighting, crimson and purple bodies strewn throughout the large antechamber of perfect architecture. There must have been at least a hundred of them, each motionless where they had fallen, each as covered in dust as he had been not too long before, each a relic of a bygone age that he did not yet know about.

At the farthest end of the chamber stood two huge doors, high and wide enough for two dreadnoughts standing side-by-side to walk through, crafted of adamantium and warded against psychic attack - proof against pretty much anything that could be thrown at them.

That was unless one knew the assorted pass codes, one very much like himself, all he had to do wa-

That was a sound, a most discernible sound! Someone was tracking him after all.

Moving with a lack of noise that one may have thought impossible for such an armoured giant, the Emperor's Child made his way toward a sound of gunfire – not just gunfire but bolterfire at that – making sure his own weapon was loaded as he went; after placing his back against a wall, he peered around the corner to make out three distinct figures. An Astartes there was, clad in the sigils and colours of the Lion's own legion, his firearm barking death at what appeared to be a faintly glowing Orkoid an a rather twisted Martian as well. The time since awakening had just gotten weirder and weirder.

There was no love lost between his own legion and that of the First, but he could not simply let this Brother – and a Techmarine as well, by the appearance of one pauldron – be wiped out by these two adversaries.

“I am with you, Brother,” he half-yelled as he strode forward to stand by the side of the Fallen Angel, levelling his weapon and unleashing it upon the Martian without hesitation.




Only a little more time before the ships latched onto the outer hull of the former Emperors Children vessel, then these weak 'Humans' would be used to regain what had been taken, it was so close now that the Farseer smiled once more through Elizabeth. Only when the Canoness-Preceptor looked her way did she let the expression fade, glaring at the other woman and giving a small nod, making the sign of the Aquila over her breastplate and readying those hands – her hands she reminded herself – for battle.
Otherwise I'd just look like an ass.


Hey, you said it, not me.
