Cinder’s Character Sheet:

If you’re a die-hard lover of canon, I suggest you turn away now. I’d like to think I’ll do Chaos justice here though. The key thing at the end of the day is to have fun, whatever that means in this instance.

All rolls will go against a specified characteristic in the style of Black Crusade. You’ll want to roll under the characteristic value in order to pass the check. The more degrees of success (every multiple of 10 counts as 1), the more awesome of a result. A 1 is a guaranteed success, and a 100 is a guaranteed failure.

Best of three rolls when it’s called for, with a 1 or a 100 instantly taking precedence. If multiple characteristics are being rolled for, each 1d100 counts for its respective test. Any rolls prior to the call for one and those not linking said post will be ignored.

You may burn (i.e. gone forever) 10 infamy to completely reroll a check (i.e. three new 1d100). If you have above 10 infamy, you are allowed a single additional 1d100 roll for any check during a session.

If you have any questions/etc, now’s the time. Otherwise, I’ll push the first update in about 10 minutes

Excessive meta goes to QTG. Blatant Samefaggotry will be ignored.

HAT SHOPPING

“It’s Ydumee, not Ydumcc.”

“Is it now? Well close enough right?”

You sigh frustratedly and give Acerea a disapproving stare. Sure, without her you wouldn’t even have known where the Slayer of Raptor was headed. Nor would you be able to control where the ship, your ship, exited the Warp. But did she have to completely vegetate the Navigator?

“This one time, maybe. Is it really that hard to get proper information out of the mushroom upstairs?”

“Mmm, I’d say it’s more a boon that he’s even able to vocalize at all.” The Plaguebearer accents her remark with a shrug before she sinks lower into her own little segmented portion of the bloodbath. Magos Lazerus had done a surprisingly good job with your specifications, making it so even Acerea’s naturally-occurring pestilence didn’t affect the purity of the blood in your pool. “So Ydumee then. Anything special about it?”

You growl and toss the data slate you were holding aside. “No. Absolutely nothing of note in the monkey databases. It’s just another frontier world out in the Golgenna Reach. I’ll be lucky if there’s even a wild beast worthy of hunting there.”

Hunting. Not even a real fight. Barely even a test of skill for one of your caliber. Unless it happened to be a leviathan. Or an ape encased within power armor. Now THOSE might be worthy prey.

“Always the pessimist, my dear Cinder. Gaelos must have wanted to go there for a reason.”

“Mortals don’t have reasons. They’re creatures of instincts which we feed on.”

“Oh I know you don’t believe that entirely. You’re just restless since there’s no one to fight with.”

The skull you’re currently using as a stress ball gives a creak as your tail’s grip on it tightens. She was right, loathe as you are to admit it aloud.

(cont)

>>34259920

Before you can formulate a proper reply, a subtle rumbling signifies the Raptor’s exit from the Warp. Your microbead begins buzzing right on cue.

“Sorry to interrupt, but we have a problem.” Proditus sounds way more nervous than usual. The kind of nervous that invokes the mental image of the Astropath drowning in a pool of his own sweat. It’s rather impressive his heart’s still working, actually.

“Unless it’s a problem that I can tear in two and fill a chalice with…”

“Um… It’s complicated. You might want to come up here.”

That catches you off guard. The whimpering mortal knows better than to give you suggestions by now. Whatever’s going on must be serious.

Acerea beats you to a reply. “We’ll be up shortly sweetie~”

Five minutes later you’re glaring at a screen filled with an overlay of the space around Ysai Ydumee. And what’s there isn’t good. Two Imperial Navy vessels are in separate geosynchronous orbits above each of the main continents. The first, a Vengeance Class Grand Cruiser christened the Faithful Inferno, is resupplying with raw materials brought up via the spaceport near the capital city on the Northern Continent. The second is a Nova Class Frigate: the Heaven’s Thunder. It’s currently unloading every single piece of equipment into a dig site on the Southern Continent.

Which wouldn’t be a problem if the Space Marines on the Thunder weren’t trying to raise the Raptor on comms. They haven’t powered their weapons yet though, so there’s that.

(cont)

>>34259937

If it weren’t for the message Proditus had sent out prior to you reaching him, you might just think the Thunder was here at Gaelos’ request and the Inferno was undergoing a routine layover. But now you’re not so sure. A Dauntless Class vessel like the Raptor might be able to sink a Nova without issue. The Grand Cruiser behind it though? It could vaporize the Raptor without taking so much as a scratch.

Every being present, ranging from Acerea to Mr. Silent to Small-Horn, is waiting for you to make a judgement call. The bridge is eerily quiet.

Well we're tied at the moment between abusing the Rosette and going through the files attached to said Rosette. Guess I'll wait a bit longer.

Get them to relay that the Vox was damaged during transit as a few 'Heretics' summoned a demon, then tried to take the ship. The issue was easily resolved, but the damage to the equipment is still being repaired.

Technically, none of that information was false, so it lends credibility...

Might be worth getting our psyker slave to impersonate the 'good' inquisitor when the time comes...

>>34259953

(Well in the interests of moving things along...)

‘You,” you jab a claw at one of the three tech priests standing in for Magos Lazerus. “Come up with technical blather about how our vox was damaged and stall for time. Use a fire and smoke signals if you have to.”

The tech priest in question glances from side to side then begins conversing in binary cant with his fellows. Finally, he resumes his speech in low gothic.

++The primary Vox unit’s Machine Spirit has been in hiding since entry into the Warp. Is this sufficient?++

“It will have to do… Buys time to look through those damned files again.” You run a hand through your hair in frustration. “I’m a daemon damn it, not a secretary.”

Acerea giggles and starts to shoo the others present away. “Well you heard her. Go about your tasks and let one of us know if something happens. Or if they don’t bite the bait.”

>>34260482

Between Acerea and yourself the pair of you tear through Gaelos’ files like a chainsword through butter. Like most Inquisitors though, he had an infuriating habit of not keeping a paper trail. Vague notes, times, and references that are all more confusing than a Lord of Change’s pocketbook. Just when you’re about to throw the pile of data slates into the wall, a single line catches your eye:

“Experiment 18D: Failure. Relic on Yd still an unknown.”

So there’s a link between whatever is on the surface and the grizzly rituals he was performing on the side. And since he qualified it as a “relic,” that justifies why there’s a Space Marine vessel in orbit. Or maybe you’re assuming too much and Proditus’ message of “Help we’re being attacked by daemons” was received loud and clear.

Only one way to find out.

It doesn’t take long to reassemble the war party on the bridge once you have this new information in hand. The tech priests seem to be far more chatty than before, prompting you to ask, “Well, did they buy it or will I have new…?”

You trail off and let their imaginations do your work for you. It turns out to be rather effective.

++The Techmarine has expressed interest in coming aboard to placate the Machine Spirit++

“Wonderful. Have you told him to go perform percussive maintenance on himself instead?”

++He is rather insistent. His dedication to the Omnissiah is admirable.++

Which means short of an Inquisitorial order, he’s not going to back off. Damn these mechanical types.

Acerea and you share a glance. “Should I…?”

“No offense Acerea, but you can’t sell the authority that an Inquisitor has. Sweet talking the Marines will get us nowhere.”

“Hey I can be mean!”

You roll your eyes and wave her suggestion away. Clearly she doesn’t understand what you meant. Turning to the mechanicus delegation, “Can you get me an audio link to this Techmarine?”

++Easily++

“Then why don’t I have one already?”

That and a snarl gets them moving. A headset is handed to you not twenty seconds later.

You clear your throat, then speak in the most normal, mortal voice you can muster. “This is… Inquisitor Cinder. What business do you have with me?”

A rather loud and powerful male voice thunders through the speaker a moment later. “We were expecting Inquisitor Gaelos. Where is he? What is happening over there?”

“He has met an… unfortunate end in the service of the Emperor. As his lead acolyte, I have taken over as per his last wishes.” You blanch silently at having to tell such a lie, much to Acerea’s amusement.

(cont)

>>34261531

“Ah. A pity. He was a valuable and courageous man. Did he fall during his pre-emptive attack?”

Pre-emptive attack? You flounder for a few seconds before realizing that he might mean the message Proditus sent. It’s pretty common for messages sent via psychic choirs to be garbled in the Warp.

“Yes…” you begin, drawing out the word as you hastily think of a story. “Experiment 23D was a failure. That’s all I can say on the matter without being face to face.”

“I see. There has been no change to the relic either. What of your technical problems though? Do you need my assistance? I would be happy to…”

You cut him off. “That will not be necessary. Continue your work there. I will contact you when I have need.”

“As you wish, Madam Inquisitor.”

The line goes silent. You rip off the headset and toss it at one of the Tech Priests. “There, I handled YOUR problem for you. Now get out. The rest of you put us in orbit on the opposite side of the planet from them.”

You don’t even wait for an acknowledgement before practically storming out. Inquisitor Cinder? Really? Sure you had a defiled Rosette on-hand, but did you really need to slink around in the shadows? It feels wrong. A part of you does recognize the need for it on some level though. A single-minded warrior focusing on one path either becomes a master or perishes.

The question now was… what would you do now?

Why? Because we can claim this relic for Khorne! Just make sure to dress up as an Inquisitor for ultimate Imperial Swag level, with the defiled Rosette.

>>34261551
>> [1] Head down to the relic site
hopefully we can draw some of them out of their ships and down to the planet, and then crash their ships into it

>>34261551
It was a Catch 22!

> [3] Start drafting up battle plans for taking down the Inferno and the Thunder
but since Khorne is more using what's available rather than what might be there,
> [1] Head down to the relic site
to secure the relic before Imperials can get it off the planet or destroy it.

The relic will still be there after the carnage.

>>34261637

>>34261551

Send mr. Silent down to the capital to encourage cults in the name of the blood god while we go to the relic

>>34261648
Eh. That would resolve the combat issue. And we're here for blood not archeology. Tomb looting is bonus until The Boss tells us otherwise.

Unless its a relic devoted to The Uberwhore or Chicken Big, then planet crashing starships is extra good.

>>34261705
>And we're here for blood not archeology.
No anon, we're here for both.

And hats.

>>34261705
The problem with attacking the ships is one can completely wreck us. The only way we'd be able to take it is if we defeat the Marine ship first, and that'll have to be a boarding action. Then we'll have to defeat Marines plus their Serfs, which will be hard due to our main force being Cultists.

>>34261702
same dude
we should also send so trust worthy cultists to speed up the spread

>>34261722
Hats for us. Blood for the Boss. Archeology for bonus points.

>>34261735
Hence planning. If we can't figure a good plan, we abort to planet lootings.

So it seems you're heading down to the relic site.

But are you going to try and blend in?

Seems you're going to play it safe. Sun Tzu probably as an apt quote about this. Go ahead and roll for Per.

As for Mr. Silent and Acerea, they'll go together. If he fails, she'll step in. Unless I miscounted the votes, that is.

If you'd still like to butcher an Inquisitor's Garb for this outing, make an additional Per check and specify that you're doing so. Picture references will garner you a +10 bonus to the threshold.

Personally, I have a certain affection for the old art. It was shameless, and quaint. And lacked the ridiculous skull and huge fetish of the current styles.

Ysai Ydumee’s southern continent is dominated by a cold desert plateau. The snow and ice present is a culmination of countless centuries of weather, most of that being a driving wind. Certainly not the most hospitable of places, but you’re a daemon. It could be the vacuum of space and you’d still feel right as rain. The major thing is that the environment offers little in the way of vantage points. Which is a problem for your plan to do some recon first.

“Are you sure you don’t want me to come along?” Acerea asks as you wait for your respective shuttles to be prepped. “I’d love to…”

You raise a hand to stop her line of thought. “Yes I’m sure. I need YOU to watch HIM.” You point over at Mr. Silent, who’s currently on the opposite side of the docking bay with his own little group of cultists. “If it turns out he’s a bad egg, scramble him.”

“Did you just make a pun?”

“...This is what I get for reading too much of that mortal’s diary.”

“I think it’s cute.”

“I think my claws…”

You’re interrupted: ++Your shuttle is ready, Ms. Acerea++

“Hmph…” You offer out a gauntlet-covered hand to Acerea. “I expect you to return with good news about how I have an army being raised on the Northern Continent.”

She takes your hand and shakes it. “And you keep that lovely red tail of yours safe.”

Then she’s gone, wandering off to join Mr. Silent’s party across the way before the lot of them pile into the waiting shuttle.

Now that you’re alone for a moment, you take the chance to look over your new outfit. It’s an amalgamation of your old one and some of Gaelos’ old duds. Repurposed, reforged, and retailored by Wormbag, of course. A red storm-coat with black trim sits snugly over a brass-colored set of matching fabrics that cover half of your torso and your thighs. Shinguards made of the same materials as your pauldrons otherwise leave your taloned feet uncovered. Your arms and midriff are left bare as well, mostly because you saw no need for such superfluous fabric. All of that is topped off with a smattering of skull flairs throughout that shift to become the Mark of Khorne with a single thought.

Oh, and a hat that has holes for your horns. Wormbag wouldn’t stop giving you grief about that one until you beat Small-Horn senseless with it. Now he’s thinking of more ways to weaponize headgear. Blood God smile upon him.

Your moment of introspection is interrupted by the pilot of your shuttle paging you. Ten minutes later you’re making planet-fall. It’s exhilarating in a way, to fall without wings with fire all around you. It reminds you of all that running you did back when you were born. The freedom of it all. Crazy perhaps, but you’re a daemon. Crazy is what you do.

Which is why you’re now going to make an aerial insertion on top of a nunatak from 30,000 feet.

Without a parachute.

Leaping from the shuttle, you plunge in the bitingly cold air towards your destination. On the way down, you’re afforded a nice bird’s eye view of the excavation site. Carved out of the side of a mountain, the entrance is a large circular hole into what must be a series of tunnels. Around that are various encampments with armaments ranging from mounted turrets to actual tanks. Half are Imperial Guard, half are Space Marine. They’re largely deployed in a fan formation, facing east with their back to the dig site. A few patrols can be seen sweeping the general area as well.

None of them seem to note your descent. Which is both fortunate and to be expected. You land feet first on top of the elevated, exposed rock, forming a small crater as you do so. After a quick check to make sure your hat is still in place, you stride over to the edge to observe the soon-to-be-dead humans.

Hey, Khorne is about killing and spilling blood in all forms. Hunting is technically within his domain, which we're technically doing, stealthfully hunting our prey.

>>34262904
Technically speaking Khorne is pretty lax about that sort of thing, doesn't matter how the blood is split and all that, as long as he gets it.

He just rewards you less if you use cheat codes like magic or any gifts not his own.

Given the swirling snow and otherwise low visibility, working your way towards the site without being seen is trivial. You lay low until one of the Imperial Guard patrols makes its rounds about the perimeter before you appear from the snow and hail them down. Their Centaur swerves towards you without hesitation and soon you have two Guardsmen and two Heavy Stubbers looking down at you.

“This area is restricted by decree of Inquisitor Gaelos. Leave now or we’ll be forced to remove you by… force…” says the first, stumbling over his last couple of words.

His comrade sighs and offers an apology. “He’s new. But this area is off limits unless…”

“Unless I have this,” you roar, offering out the Rosette as if it were a spear. The Guardsmen recoil instinctively.

“B-But you don’t look like…”

“ROOKIE SHUT UP BEFORE YOU GET US KILLED.”

This, but don't claim to be a Inquisitor. If they make a mistake its their problem.

>>34263250
Or just make it up on the spot. Like, "He who impedes His glorious work shall receive no mercy nor forgiveness." It's not like they'll know the difference.

>>34263134

>>34263134

"You dare question me? Let me through now or may the Emperor have mercy on your souls."

Your tongue goes dry at the mention of the Emperor, but you muddle through.

“BUT SHE HAS A TAIL! AND SHE’S RED! WITH HORNS! I’M PRETTTTTTYYY SURE THAT’S HERESY!”

The guardsman swings the barrel between you and his comrade, not sure who to focus on. You fix that by leaping forward and cleaving the gun, and the rookie, into eight pieces. As the man’s blood and intestines stain the snow around you a delightful red, you stand atop the Centaur with your coat-tails flapping in the wind.

“Now then…” You turn your attention to the remaining guardsman. “Tell the driver to get moving before I decide…”

You don’t even finish before the vehicle leaps into motions. Good boys. You decide not to kill them for now.

>>34263665
Perhaps there was a glitch in her summoning ritual?

>>34263665
Yeah, like an artist or someone who possesses a skill besides sex. I must say that I was fond of the Filigree character from Sororitas Quest because she was primarily a gem cutter.

>>34263718

>>34263718
What about excessive adorableness? Is that Slaanesh's territory?

>>34263718

She was a daemonette of curiosity and like making jewelry when she wasn't having adventures with the inquisitor she was soulbound to

>>34263748

>>34263721
No, just not annoyingly stereotypical.

Before anyone actually competent notices you, you open up the vehicle’s hatch and join the driver inside the Centaur. Given that you’re basically about the size of a Space Marine in his armor, it’s very cramped and slightly awkward.

About mid-way through the journey past the various fixed-weapons that probably would have eviscerated you, the driver breaks the silence. “So uh… you got any openings in your acolyte cells? I’ve been stuck driving shit around for ten years now and I’d kill for a change in scenery.”

“Really now? Well then I have a task for you.”

“Name it, Madam Inquisitor.”

“After you drop me off, I want you to obtain a skull. Any skull will do, so long as it’s from something you yourself killed.”

“Uh… I can do that… I guess…”

He falls silent, focusing on not driving into the roaming Space Marines.

Ten minutes later your ride has pulled up in front of the dig site entrance. There’s a pair of Marines standing guard right at the door, with another opposite against an erected wall. All three are eyeing the Centaur with suspicion.

Before you burst out of the Centaur, you give the driver one last instruction:
“I’m declaring the entire chapter of Marines heretics. Spread the word.”

“What the f-”

The top of the glorified tow vehicle goes sailing into the air as you burst forth. Almost instantly a trio of bolter rounds fly into it. The surrounding air becomes a storm of shrapnel as you leap at the Marine against the wall. A call of “FOOOULLLSPAWWNNNN” blares from his helmet as you pin him to the wall and drive your horns through his eye sockets and into his brain. Not a second later the two Marines next to the door unload another two bolter rounds at you.

The first is wildly off-mark, impacting the wall to your right and blowing it completely out. The second, however, hits you square in the shoulder. Even through the pauldrons, you feel that one (-4 wounds).

Whirling and dropping low, you heave the dying Marine attached to your head up and over the Centaur to block the next few bolter rounds. And not a moment too soon. By now your ride’s piecemeal, both of the remaining guardsman dead from the flying debris. That does make it easy to flip over though. Gripping the edge you send it flying after the Marine’s body. The two remaining Marines have to drop their bolters to catch the combined mass flying at them. Which gives you the opportunity to lunge over their heads and drive a claw into their backs.

Your muscles strain and, for a moment, it seems like both their Power Armor and enhanced biology will win out.

Sadly for the Marines, you’re a daemon. And a damn good one at that.

A sickening crack resonates through the air as you gain purchase upon their spines. Reinforced or not, your claws have no problem ripping them forth. You let the bodies fall before you and their blood coat you as you laugh maniacally. It all just feels… amazing.

But then the moment of initial bloodlust passes and clarity fills the gap. You can’t stay here for long. The element of surprise is gone, and you need to secure whatever’s inside quick.

Shit, you forgot to ask for directions.

Deciding that maybe the place with the most guards is the place with the most important item, you storm down the metal walkway towards the sounds of alarm and rallying cries. It seems the bulk of the defending forces are outside at first, given that you only run into a few Imperial Guard that quickly are reduced to giblets. Then you reach the main amphitheater.

The cavern before you opens up into an almost perfectly spherical expanse. More fixed weapons and Marines, grey colored ones, are interspersed throughout, but they’re not focused on you. They’re focused on the relic. A three meter thick crystal arch shifting colors faster than the eye sits at the center of the room. Even from across the way, you can smell the pure Chaos that lies on the other side of it.

Hoping that patience will pay off, you hang back in the corridor. For a good eight minutes, nothing happens. Then, right as the ninth starts, the crystal arch spews forth blue and pink fire.

“HERE THEY COME! SEND THE DEVILS BACK TO THEIR HELL.”

Immediately after the Grey Knight’s shout, plasma fire and bolter rounds are emptied continuously at the archway. The reason becomes clear rather quickly. Despite the intense amount of destructive power leveraged against it, the archway is beginning to pour forth daemons. Great, ever-shifting masses of flesh, limbs, and flame-spewing orifices rip, tear, and incinerate all those they reach before expiring.

The Knights seem to be unfazed by any assault, but the normal Marines and Imperial Guards present are being torn to shreds. It’s only a matter of time before they’re overwhelmed completely at the current rate.

All we have to do is keep them busy long enough for the other daemons to overwhelm the defenders.

That wouldn't be WS, if we were to shoot with it, that'd be BS. Which we're shit at.

Let's see if you can hit Moby Dick, roll.

DAMMIT WHY?!!?

We already used that reroll, didn't we?

>>34265990

Yup. Them's the dice gods for you.

So uh... yeah, writing...

>>34265990
Yep. This is what we get for serving Chaos.

What am I not grasping here?

1 is an automatic success.

>>34266050
It's best of three. That was the fourth roll.

>>34266060

Ah.
Shit.
Right there, that's my luck. Only awesome when it doesn't mean shit.

Rolled 2 last time it didn't mean shit.

>>34266100
Could be worse. You could be a nameless Guardsman who gets his face eaten by a Tyranid.

>>34266130
I play Guard. Buddy plays Nids.

There is much face eating.

>>34266130
I don't think Guardsmen get rolls to avoid getting their faces eaten by Tyranids. Seems like an auto-fail to me.

In your zeal to join the fray you miscalculate the distance between the nearest Knight and you, as well as how fast he’ll react. As your claw goes up, his sword’s already coming down. You just barely knock it aside before it connects with your skull. His boot, however, does connect with your abdomen to send you flying into the wall (-3 wounds).

“WE HAVE NO BLIND SPOTS, DAEMON. NOW BEGONE,” he bellows, raising his sword for another slice.

You’re only going to get one shot at getting this right. He’s faster than the Marines from earlier too. Plus you’re on the ground, a position of weakness. So many problems…

This is bad, if we get beaten by a Grey Knight we're proper dead, no reviving in the Warp for us.

We totally need to canabalize his power armor and power glaive.

Why Khorne why? Why do you hate me so much?

A 10 is plenty. Writing...

>>34266385
If we have the time to grab anything, we'll have loads of armour and weapons to loot.

>>34266385
You mean the armor and glaive inscribed all over to ward daemons?

>>34266437
that's the one.

I hope by cannibalizing it you mean literally eating the damn things.

After all, we can't call ourselves hardcore until we at least match up with the Nerevarine's gastrointestinal fortitude.

>>34266437
No, the Space Marine shit.

>>34266437
Wormbag can do SOMETHING with it.
Maybe we can ask Khorne himself or something too

So those things of writhing flesh and stuff.

They're not some sort of Slaaneshi abomination, are they?

The thought of having your saga ended by a single Grey Knight after a single mistake sends you into a fit of rage. But it is a good rage, a righteous rage that moves your arms before you even realize you’re moving them. This time, when that glowing blade of his comes down, your claws latch onto it. It’s enough to stop it dead in its tracks. That is, until, the force of the Knight’s mind clashes against yours.

Suddenly you’re fighting two battles: one in the real world and one in your mind. It’s no wonder why these Knights are the elite daemon killing machines they are. Which should make taking one down all the more glorious.

You throw the blade aside and use the opening to leap to your feet away from the wall. In the brief millisecond you have to look around, you’ll note that there are far less daemons than you’d like in comparison to the active Imperium bodies. Then it’s right back to a deadly game of cat and mouse with the Knight.

(I should note for those not familiar with 40k lore that Grey Knights, being the absolutely most retarded and OP faction, do actually have the ability to do all of this. So please, stab him hard.)

Just cut him to bits.
Also....I'm we've got Khorne's collar right? Psyker shenanigans wouldn't work so well

Got to stick to our strengths, guys.
