@Guy0fV4lor well since he is an ork of khorne blood would make sense too

[Storms and Shadows] - A Black Crusade inspired 40k Chaos RP.

Well @Jbcool, I'm having a hard time thinking of one that I like rather than one in general.

My ideas are: Gobbles, Uji, lichinka, Mush, Snigill, Maggie is pretty good though.

I'm just having a hard time deciding

@Bloodrose Well naturally, still working on that though. its hard to think up a cutesy name for a horrible slug monster.

OMG i found something new, @Bloodrose can my character have a pet Beast of nurgle

a playful slug/maggot monster that loves to play with people while giving them all the disease. Gaduk will keep it as a pet he plays with.

@Jbcool I mean, I'm sure you can, we will see what happens

Name/Titles: Ga'duk (& Viron)

Denomination: Nurgle



Personality: Ga'duk is possessed by a Plague Bearer deamon, driving the dim Ogryn to serve the Plague Father. The deamon allows the Ogryn to act on his own but will urge him to further the goals of Chaos and Nurgle in particular when the opportunity arises. The constant pain of rot and the nagging of a deamon has driven the Ogryn insane, while still more stable than a Khornate Berserker he is prone to fits of self harm and pleading (worship) to Papa Nurgle to take his pain away. When Viron grants this request however Ga'duk is generally quite jovial, laughing at his own thoughts and the tickle of maggots crawling across his form. Otherwise he largely acts as an unstoppable wall of flesh and muscle the endurance granted to him by Nurgle allowing him to survive wounds that would be fatal to nearly all others.

Biography: The ogryn was stranded on a space hulk filled with chaos forces after the boarding party he was apart of was slaughtered. Ga'duk was wounded on the Space Hulk though not seriously, however due to lack of proper medicae treatment his wound became infected, over several days the Ogryn fought and survived several run-ins with gibbering lunatics. However his wound's infection grew and Ga'duk was on the verge of death when the hulk shifted back into the warp. A Plaguebearer deamon found him, drawn to the rot and infection running through his veins, and rather than gutting the dying Ogryn the deamon gave him an offer. The offer was to take the pain away and to make him tough and strong again, Ga'duk was too dim to really understand what the deamon was offering. He agreed though and was possessed by the deamon which corrupted and bloated his body but also making him more powerful and durable than he ever was before. For years Ga'duk was tormented by the deamon and sowing death and decay across the space hulk, killing hundreds of demented heretics and traitors making Nurgle plague zombies to wander the hulk falling on anyone not worshiping the Plague father.

The Ogryn's coming to Euromulus Krynne was pure happenstance, or a nudge by Nurgle to balance the great game. While wandering on the shattered remains of a small cargo shuttle that was thousands of years old an explosion inside the hulk knocked the shuttle loose sending it spinning off into the warp. The Ogryn being protected by his deamonic passenger survived his trip through the warp being deposited on Euromulus Krynne's ship in a crash landing that should have shattered his body. Ga'duk's Ogryn endurance enhanced by the deamon allowed him to survive and, with nothing better to do, join the band of mercenaries as repulsive dumb muscle.

Other: Ga'duk carries the weapon of his deamon, an axe that functions just as a Plaguesword.

Gobbles The Beast of Nurgle

Personality: Gobbles is a jovial and loving creature. It loves to play and give affection to anyone it can, willing or not. Unfortunately its play and affections is usually exceedingly fatal due to Nurgle's Rot. Ga'duk however is not effected already being afflicted by the diseases of Nurgle. The beast loves to play wrestle and fetch things for the Ogryn and only occasionally eating the unfortunate cultist.

Size: ~4ft belly to back ~8ft long

Sample: "Gobbles!" Ga'duk shouted searching for his loyal pet aboard the ship. He was following the trail of slime left by the creature so he could find it before it caused too much trounle, it always acted out when it wandered off. Besides the boss would yell at him again if it killed too many. It didn't take long, the creature rarely went far, before his shouts attracted the creature. It rounded a corner in the corridor jaw hanging open in a grotesque smile dripping with gore and offal having already putrefied and devoured some poor cultist. Ga'duk laughed and held out his arms as the beast charged him tackling him to the ground licking and gnawing on his arms and face while its tentacles grabbed him as if he was any other plaything that it would be eating in short order. Ga'duk however laughed and lifted himself up off the ground powerful enough to lift the bloated monster with him.

Gobbles let go of him and followed the Ogryn around as he searched for the latest victim of the beast. He found the cultist putrefied and torn apart due to his pets play, the monster obviously still wanted to play so he hefted his axe and severed the mans head. He hurled the head down the corridor hard, his strength making it fly far down the hall. He shouted "Go git em!!" after his throw but winced as some crew member entered the corridor about the same time being struck by the head. He looked down in confusion for a heartbeat or three before he looked back up to see Gobbles charging at him. The crewman screamed in terror as he was bulled over, quickly infected by Nurgle's Rot and held down as it liquefied into foul fluids and bloated flesh. Now Ga'duk new the boss was going to yell at him for letting a crewman die.

@Ollumhammersong I get what you're saying but honestly compared to daemon princes and Chaos Champions like Typhus or Kharn. We don't have a warband and the whole party would be hard pressed to pose a serious threat to a hive city (ignoring possible inquisitorial power) Which is kind of the metric I'm going by so maybe that puts us as low-mid rather than low-low

Lol not that it matters, I'll shut up so the GM can do their thing.

[Storms and Shadows] - A Black Crusade inspired 40k Chaos RP.

Again, not saying anyone's concepts are bad. But they are anything but mundane and low-level.

@Ollumhammersong

I'll grant we are not especially low-tier like a band of IG traitors, but I rather expected a long term project resulting in a whole and proper warband/black crusade which takes some truly mighty people to lead which I would say the traitoris inquisitor might be and the Astartes might be but everyone else isn't there to lead a warband

I guess what I'm saying is that individual space marine, or against a squad of PDF yeah my ogryn will basically win. But he isn't a sector or even planetary threat unless I go further on the Daemon nonsense.

@Ollumhammersong I'll second what hank is saying the ogryns are badass but just dumb muscle. Mine mas more room for nonsense but mostly he was going to be a bruiser... who can give you hyper-Ebola and super-bubonic plague when he cuts off your arm with his big ass axe. Scary as hell and hard to kill but not as if he was a plague marine or great unclean one.

PS: i am surprised someone else is rolling an Ogryn @Hank, should make things interesting.
