Fandom Beyond the Black Curtain: OOC Chat

[The Mechanist]

We really shoukd pick a point in time. We could do anything before the 13th black crusade maybe the 900s m41. We could go explore the halo stars where few have ever been. The ship a relic from when the emperor still walked handed down through the ages.

Perhaps a shard of his sword?

 

[Karcen]

Oh no I meant the ship is old it is crusade era

If you're concerned over the quality of the contributions I would be making to the RP, let me assure you that the way I communicate in OOC is no indicator of my writing capacity ICly.

I was going to link to some of the most recent RPs I had participated in on the site... but I think they might have been deleted. I'm coming back from a several months hiatus. Fortunately, I did save some of my posts in another place. Just in case the OP decided to delete the thread.

So here's a post I made in an RP with the very character I presented to you in the recruitment thread (Karcen may or may not remember it, actually):

Spoiler

Screams echoed down the flickering corridors, the smell of heated ion burning at the back of one's nose. Adrielle pressed herself against the edge of the dark wall, checking around the corner for enemies. The floor was scattered with the viscera of several bodies, unrecognizable in their current state but almost assuredly they were part of the engineering crew. The passageways of the Leonus Rex had become the stage for a slaughter, as the League Black Ship had become stranded in warp space. An explosion in this sector of the ship had led to the eventual failure of the Gellar fields, the bulkheads of the ship sealing off the damaged region to protect the surviving crew and passengers. This had effectively also cut off any hope of restoring the protective barrier that had kept the chaotic denizens at bay. The aberrant beings now stalked the ship, drawn to the energies emitted from the cache of psykers that had been inbound to Holy Terra.

Among others that were assigned to the ship, a troupe of Battle Sisters were meant to guard the psykers. Their duty would now be put to its limit. As the pulp underfoot that was once the crew began to pile high, Adrielle moved alongside her sistren. Their black armor was nearly indiscernible from the shadows of the phasing lights, and a particularly long stretch of darkness left the mission of Battle Sisters as a visage of glowing occulum and visors. A flamer unit towards the front of their formation did much to light the way with her pilot fire. The uniform bob cuts of those without helmets were illuminated by the blue flame. However, as the group walked their steps slowed. Sound became suppressed, and eventually muted altogether. With each inch that the Sororita pressed on, the images of her sisters further faded into the infinite black of the corridor. She reached out to the closest of them, but her gloved hand gripped only the inky blackness as Adrielle's comrades disappeared into the nocturne of her surroundings.

It was then that the warrioress was utterly alone. She hung in the blackness, without sound, without direction. The walls were gone and the floor beneath her armored feet had dropped away into an infinite abyss. It took a moment for Adrielle to realize she was falling. Her weapons left her grip as she flailed in the darkness to catch an impossible ledge. Her platinum hair fluttered before her eyes as she twisted and turned in an eternal descent. And then slowly, the shadows proffered shapes. Obscure at first, but slowly manifesting into feasible form, the Adepta Sororita was now in a tunnel of flesh. Sinew and wet membrane blurred passed as she fell further and further into the carnal chasm. pinks and reds and darker hues of ichor traced in morbid veins across the living walls. And eventually she could espy faces in the writhing mess of guts. Not just any faces, but the faces of her sistren. Dozens of her kindred were trapped in the twisted tangle of entrails, wailing in agony at Adrielle as she fell passed them. Their screams grew louder as she descended the horrible pit, until their shrieks and wails became maddening. Adrielle covered her ears, squeezing her eyes shut in desperation. But she could still hear them, and she could still see them. Even her blind eye could behold the terrible visions that flooded her senses. And as her body tumbled down the hole, the bottom suddenly became visible. A huge, gaping maw lay at the bottom of the pit. It was the face of Katha, Adrielle's commander and dear friend. The sockets of Katha's giant countenance were gouged out, weeping pools of blood replacing her brown eyes. And as the pale warrior fell down towards the screaming visage, she was swallowed whole.

It's ok, I trust you will make good posts. I just think it would be nice to not feel like I am dyslexic when reading your OOC posts.

I am thinking the Galactic Core in mid Millennium 38

sounds great that is a largely ignored place well there were squats

 

[Murdergurl]

I'm definitely going to need to read up on the wiki for this. lol

 

[Karcen]

well this was post age of apostasy so sisters have been a thing for over 1k years the core is largely left alone because of the eternal day and extreme radiation of many worlds space dwarves used to live here

 

[Murdergurl]

i forget what happened to the Squats. Did they get nommed by the Nids? I think I remember that being their ultimate demise. But I could be remembering wrong.

 

[Karcen]

yeah but that isn't for another like 3k years with the nids coming

 

[Murdergurl]

yeah but that isn't for another like 3k years with the nids coming

oh, okay. So this will be a pre-tyranid setting. gotcha. Like, I said, I'm gonna hafta read up. Not a big deal, tho.

 

[The Mechanist]

I’m fine with whatever y’all got planned, I’ll be playing as an inquisitor of the ordo xenos

 

[The Mechanist]

So we gonna do this?

 

[Karcen]

Waiting on MrThe

Retconned out of existence. Except the Ammo Jacks on Necromunda.

I am so sorry it's been a crazy month. Are you still interested in continuing? Not sure about Inquisition coming along.

What character were you planning?

 

[Captain Hesperus]

I have several ideas, but my first is a Sister Hospitaler (an Adept healer).

Well I’d like to be a radical inquisitor crusader

 

[MrThe]

Radical how? And what do you mean by crusader?

 

[The Mechanist]

Radical as in he’ll use Xenos tech, and Crusader is a class, they use sword and shields, melee weapons and the like.

 

[MrThe]

Oh! You were thinking like the careers in the Warhammer 40k Fantasy Flight games. Also that's not really the whole story with the Crusaders but that's not too important. My two biggest issues are, "Why is he off with a Rogue Trader instead of safeguarding the Imperium from within?" (You know, the job of an Inquisitor) and "Why the heck is the Rogue Trader allowing you to tag along?" I'd rather not have him be a permanent member of the crew. Particularly because Rogue Traders and Inquisitors rarely get along very well and are actually not all that different in terms of political, legal, and even military power.

 

[Karcen]

technically ordo xenos inquisitors look into aliens not purely internal affairs like looking into orks or nids ecxt and deep core is mostly unexplored what xenos scum might lurk there:?

 

[MrThe]

Fair enough but that doesn't answer the second question of why the Rogue Trader is letting him come along. They tend to want Inquisitors as far away from them as possible. Why doesn't the Inquisitor get his own ship and crew?

 

[Karcen]

traveling under cover for which the trader is compensated in inquisitorial resources and perhaps other boons, Inquisitors of all ordos often do under cover work so showing up in fire and fury with ships and such screaming inquisition is not viable a rouge trader is both good cover for travel and the more likely suspect should anyone hear of an incognito inquisitor

ordo xenos inquisitor amberly veil used such a rouse while investigating a gene stealer cult
