Cinder’s Character Sheet:

If you’re a die-hard lover of canon, I suggest you turn away now. Like all things 40k, the gauntlet runs from “worshiping the printed word” to “over the top silliness.” Most of the time it’s somewhere in between. Others it swerves hard to one side and/or breaks this model entirely. You’ve been warned in advance.

Alternatively, if you’re not at all familiar with canon or want more details on something, just ask!

All rolls 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.

I’ve got a few things to go over before we start, mostly to clear up some confusion and answer some questions. We’ll maybe spend about 5-10 minutes on it before I start to drop the actual quest updates.

Excessive meta/whining/waifu’ing/etc goes to another thread. Blatant Samefaggotry and overly lewd write-ins will be ignored.

So first off is Ignitrix’s Sock Puppet Show: http://pastebin.com/39gGGYHe
You should read it. Whether or not it’ll be more or less than 4-5 threads is entirely up to you all. Ideally, though, we’re going to start pushing towards an end of sorts. The April 1st session is not a hard stop but a goalpost for me personally. I’m going to try to run more often regardless so watch Twitter.

Second is my attempt to nail down a set of rules for a quest-based Black Crusade. I may still opt to handwave this but I would like to involve the dice gods in the process somehow. In any case, give it a read and laugh at my piss poor rule-making skills:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/19XQLnzMrgwvXi6P0RP-bILg5J70U_QF6EFvdZoEDAGY/edit?usp=sharing

I suppose one option is to have someone go run a little wargame sidequest thing that handles the nitty gritty while this quest here remains solely on Cinder and crew. I’m not entirely sold on such an idea but you’re welcome to contact me through the usual channels if you’d be interested.

Oh and a bit of funny for you before we start proper. Seems Cinder’s legacy carries on regardless of what setting and system she’s in. I can storytime about it later if you’d like. But first, you’ve got a Daemon Prince to meet.

“Let’s go over what we’ve learned.”

Ignitrix spins in her chair and makes to hold up two sockpuppets. Before she can speak again, though, you wave her off. You know she’s doing it because she’s frustrated and wants to make sure you understand but there’s still a limit to how much you can be patronized.

“I get it,” you say. “Helldrool’s an old friend that you’ve kept in fringe contact with over the centuries. He won’t remember ever having seen me because, to him, it never happened. But I still shouldn’t beat someone to death with their own skull in front of him as an introduction.”

A sigh escapes the Lady of Change’s lips, “Yes. And if you don’t impress him we’re not going to be able to transition between the Screaming Vortex and the Eye of Terror. No other Black Crusade has ever had that sort of mobility before, so hopefully I don’t need to spell out how important it is.”

It’s your turn to breathe noisily. “I think I’m pretty damn impressive, thank you very much.”

“I never said you weren’t, sis.”

Some time over the course of the past week or so, Ignitrix has started calling you that when it’s just the two of you around. “Sister.” Given the long-term goal and implications of such it makes sense. You haven’t returned the favor yet, though. To you she’s firmly stuck as “Iggy” until one or both of you actually ascends. Thankfully she’s more than understanding about it. She’s even offered to stop should it bother you but you’ve yet to say anything.

(cont)

>>38773401

In any case, you give her a silent shrug and sit back into the command throne on the bridge of the Obscenity Engine. There you wait for the ship to exit from the 13th Station of Passage into the Screaming Vortex proper. If your feathered Navigator did her job right you’ll even end up at Helldrool’s rendezvous point right on time.

Until then you’ve got about an hour to kill. By Ignitrix’s estimates, anyways.

Well if you’re going to doddle for an hour you might as well see how things with the Biofleet are going. As you rise from your throne you nod at Ignitrix, “Back in a bit.”

She just sort of shrugs and returns her attention to the multitude of displays in front of her. “Remember - about an hour.”

Even then it’s not like you have to go that far to find Kaysis and Sytili. They’ve commandeered one of the briefing rooms and turned it into a walkable holomap of the Galaxy. Most of the information is delayed between reports from the Biofleet and whispers among the Warp, but for the most part it’s fairly accurate. When you walk in you note that it’s currently zoomed in on a spot in the Calixis Sector near Port Wander. The Eldar and Zoan Prime are clustered around it and comparing notes.

“Sooooooo…” Both turn to look at you as you speak. “Any good news?”

“Um… Kinda?” replies Kaysis. Now that you’re closer to her you realize that she’s changed her appearance. She’s still sporting several obvious Warp miasmas across her flesh (today she has little horns) but now there are bits of wraithbone mixed in. It’s as if she’s fused into that bit of armor Ignitrix took from Lucius and made it a part of her very being. Perhaps it’s some form of Eldar vanity. Regardless, she continues as if nothing’s amiss.

“The Biofleet’s converted a pleasure world and a dead world thus far. They’ve started on an Agri one but they won’t finish by the time the Imperium starts knocking.” She motions at a little purple sector of space surrounding Fervious. Next to it are two yellow blobs and one green one.

“To be fair,” hisses Sytili. “They may have to turn and face the Orkssss. That Waaagh! tore through Port Wander fassster than we thought.”

“Maybe they went around it entirely?” you wonder aloud.

“Perhapssss. It issss unlik-” The Tyranid tilts her head to the side, eyes glazing over. “There’ssss an update coming in…”

kinda sux that the ending is within view but at least it will get a well threshed out and actually planned ending.
Just throwing it out there that if you felt the need to give any of the side characters their own quests then it would be my pleasure to read and take part in it

>>38774031
All good things must end anon... Look on the bright side, a quest with a beginning middle and end can be read and enjoyed by everyone, so well in fact that it can lapse on into immortality and inspire many future quests.

oh fuck captcha: sergy... sergals confirmed?

Lemme just cobble together some quick stats and we'll try it out. I had some earlier but photoshop crashed. Yay.

Here’s the quick stat blocks for the actors in this little wargame:

Orks:
T1 (5, 25, 28)
A (6, 35, 31)

Imperium:
T2 (5, 23, 30)
T3 (8, 26, 26)
T4 (7, 15, 17)

Tyranids:
B (10, 24, 24)
C (9, 29, 29)

I’ll handle the rolls for non-Tyranid actors. What I need from you all is the rolls for Fleets B and C. 4d100 should do (B’s FS & GS, C’s FS & GS). Same best of three applies as usual.

Rolled 97, 50, 75, 64 = 286 (4d100)

>>38774372
Biomass for the hive!

Rolled 80, 95, 18, 45 = 238 (4d100)

>>38774372

Rolled 66, 89, 11, 31 = 197 (4d100)

>>38774372
BIOMASS FOR THE BIOMASS GOD!

Rolled 63, 5, 19, 6 = 93 (4d100)

>>38774372

Rolled 1, 1, 1, 1 = 4 (4d1)

>>38774372

Rolled 49, 46, 20, 7 = 122 (4d100)

>>38774393
>>38774394
>>38774402

Well let's see...

B gets 66 and 50. C gets 11 and 31. Good job not sucking C.

Now to roll for T3 and T4 myself...

Who says they aren't? Blood for the blood god! Also, fast healing.

>>38774508
Shes a khorne demon, and thats a skull... I'm pretty sure demons of khorne can integrate murder trophies into themselves with handwavium and warp fuckery.

Also demons are basically like a child tried to draw human anatomy from memory with crayons... nothing actually makes any sense if you were to cut a demon open and by no means should one biologically function to begin with.

>>38774542
Kamehamehuh?

Rolled 6, 71, 73, 67 = 217 (4d100)

>>38774435

Alright so......

The Forge World group gets 2 degrees of failure for each.

The Hive World group gets 1 degree of failure and 1 degree of success.

Fleet B gets 4 DoF and 2 DoF, C with 1 DoS and 1 DoF. In all that leads to Fleet B losing 2 health. Nothing else happens.

Someone double check me.

SO BASICALLY:

>>38773979

Sytili blinks twice. She seems offput by the information she's just received. "Well I have good news and bad news. The good news is the Biofleet incursion into the neighboring Hive World is going about as well I thought. We're at a stalemate with them. As for the Forge World..."

You raise an eyebrow as she rolls her eyes. "Whichever Synapse is leading them is going to be replaced. They tried ramming the Hive Ship itself into the planet. You can imagine how that went."

"I..." You don't know how to respond to that. "Are they still a thing?"

Sytili huffs, "They figured out how stupid of an idea it was at the last minute. But not before taking some hits. Idiots."

So yeah. That's Decimation on both accounts. Holy shit Biofleets. Good job getting your shit together.

T3 loses 4 Influence and has its stats reduced.
T4 though? Annihilated. +1 Tyranid territory.

Kaysis puts a hand to her face to conceal her smile. “Don’t sell them short just yet. Take a look…” She motions at the map as the yellow blob surrounding the Hive Worlds shatters and is replaced by the purple one. “It seems my little acid tweaks to the Pyro-Acid batteries paid off. I told you they would!”

“Ssssss… It sssstill doessss not excusssse russshing in like that.”

“Isn’t that kind of how the Tyranids DO space combat though?” you ask.

Sytili nods, “Yessss, but usssually one doesssn’t DRIVE THE HIVE SSSSHIP INTO THE PLANET.” She takes a deep breath then adds, “We have sssmaller ssshipsss desssigned for sssuch actionsss.”

“I see.”

>>38775022

All three of you stare at the remaining yellow blob as it’s pincered by two purple tendrils. In short order it pops like a balloon, gushing out purple “liquid” as it does.

“See? All under control, Lily.”

You raise an eyebrow at Kaysis. “Lily?”

“Her nickname for me,” answers Sytili. “I don’t understand it either.”

The Eldar’s smile increases at that, her entire expression one of mirth. You haven’t seen much of her but this is the happiest you’ve ever seen her. “It’s not that hard. Just break down your name. Plus it’s a lovely flower that Acerea introduced me to.”

Sytili and you share a glance. It is a look of understanding and shared “pain.” In that moment you are sure that you picked your apprentice well.

“Right…” you slowly mumble. “Well come get me if there’s any emergency or what not. I’m headed back up to the bridge…”

Before you go, though, you turn and add, “See you later, Kaysis, Lily.”

“IT’SSSS NOT LILY!”

You try not to laugh and fail utterly. Poor Sytili.

Soon you’re back on the bridge and in your throne. Ignitrix doesn’t even look up as you come in and settle. “Well?”

“They’re doing about as well as can be expected for a fledgling fleet, I suppose.”

“They tried ramming tactics against a Forge World, didn’t they?”

Your loud exhale of a reply causes Ignitrix to laugh. “Yeah I thought they might. But good. Good. No news on the Necron or Eldar fronts, from what I can tell anyways.”

“Great…”

You glance at a nearby clock, one of many. The excursion took maybe about 45 minutes. Funny how time flies. That just leaves 15, give or take, before you get to actually do something yourself.

Meanwhile, what did you think about that quick playtest? I know it wasn't extensive by any means but would it be something that could work if the QM had a quick way of handling it? I'm kinda on the fence about health/influence because, as shown, it can go all the way up to 10 points in a single turn.

>>38775638
went alright and no system is perfect.

>>38775638
you could set it up where the rolls give you symbolic points, and then adjust how many symbolic point it takes to shift between actual health/influence points, to shift from 0 to 1 influence takes 1 symbolic point 1
to shift from 1 to 2 takes 2 points
2 to 3 takes 3
so on
so forth

or just increase the total range of influence points, but where is the fun in that

I thought it went pretty decent overall though

>>38775638
Admittedly, I'm not that smart, but it was a little difficult to follow.
I think thats just a lack of user friendly termanology, though.

>>38775424

Instead of trying to force conversation you opt to sit in silence. The next ten minutes pass without event. On the eleventh, warning klaxons begin to sound throughout the ship to signify your drop out of the Warp.

“Ha,” says Ignitrix, obviously proud. “I got us here with five minutes to spa-”

She’s cut off as the exterior view snaps back to realspace. And it’s no wonder why. You’ve just arrived among the smouldering wreckage of several starships. The same klaxons from before blare a different tune as countless collision warnings flare up along the hull. Around you the Engine rocks violently and shudders as multiple void shields, tractors, and missiles flare out to prevent debris from impacting it.

“What in the ever loving WARP?” you shout over the din. “Do NOT tell me we just flew into a trap, Ignitrix!”

“I’m not sure,” she shouts back. “But I’m not detecting any immediate weapon bursts!”

The bumpy ride lasts for a minute or so longer before everything settles down. Right on cue, Kaysis, Sytili, and Acerea come rushing onto the bridge.

“What…?” they ask in unison.

Ignitrix flicks a talon at the nearby crew stations. “No idea. Get to scanning.”

As everyone gets to work, you leave your throne behind and walk over to Ignitrix’s chair. Her hands are moving even faster than they did when dealing with the Exterminatus bomb back on Ysai. She’s even biting her lip hard enough to draw blood. Poor thing.

“Hey,” you say as you gently touch her shoulder. She whirls and looks at you anxiously. “Have you tried getting a hold of him with your mind yet?”

“I…” Her mouth opens then closes. “No. No I should do that.” She turns back to the screen and adds as an afterthought, “Thanks. It’s pretty bad when YOU’RE the calm one.”

You ruffle her hair then wait. Soon you’re hearing one side of a conversation:

“Oh thank Tzeentch you’re safe. Where are you… Wait slow down. Who did what?! WHAT THE FUCK IS HE DOING THERE?!”

You cough loudly to get her attention. By now everyone on the bridge is looking at her. “Uh… mind filling us in?”

Remember how you once thought there was a limit to how far Ignitrix’s feathers could puff out? She somehow finds a way to surpass that. “Oh I’ll do you better than that. That son of a fucking…”

Yeahhhhh she’s mad. Evidenced further by the fact she slams her console and brings up a video feed to parts unknown. You see the back of a set of red power armor at first, though the left arm is exposed to the air.

No. It couldn’t be.

The figure whirls and bellows, “CINDER MY GIRL. HOW THE FUCK ARE YOU?!”

Khorne damn it. It’s Kharn.

You take a moment to prepare yourself for the ensuing battle of words that one calls a conversation between two Khornates. Then you start off by replying, “KHARN. I’M BETTER THAN YOU WILL BE IN ABOUT FIVE MINUTES. WHY ARE YOU HERE ANYWAYS?!”

He proudly huffs through his helmet. “I WAS JUST WALKING ALONG, YOU KNOW, AND THEN I SAW THESE GUYS JUST SITTING AROUND. SO I THOUGHT, HEY, I SHOULD GO SAY HELLO! SO I DID. AND IT WAS GREAT.”

To your right, Ignitrix audibly twitches. Before she can say anything, though, you shout back, “SO YOU AREN’T HERE ABOUT THE TOURNAMENT THING THEN?”

His helmet tilts ever so slightly to the side. “I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT YOU’RE ON ABOUT. BUT THAT REMINDS ME. I SORTA NEED TO KILL YOU AT SOME POINT. NO HARD FEELINGS, JUST WORD FROM THE BOSS MAN. YOU KNOW HOW IT IS. CAN’T HAVE WEAKLINGS TAKE HIS THRONE AND ALL THAT.”

You fire back, “GREAT. THAT WILL SAVE ME THE TROUBLE OF HAVING TO TRACK YOUR ASS DOWN LATER. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT WE SHOULD DO FIRST?”

“BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF SOME TYRANIDS?”

“THAT... “ You glance back at Sytili and mouth wordlessly. She rolls her eyes and nods. “...SOUNDS LIKE A LOVELY IDEA. AND I HAPPEN TO HAVE SOME WITH ME.”

Kharn roars with laughter, “WONDERFUL. YOU WANT ME TO COME OVER THERE OR WHAT?”

>>38777131

Ignitrix tugs at your arm, prompting you to look down at her. Her voice is icy cold, “Don’t you dare bring him here.”

“Didn’t plan on it,” you whisper back. “Is there some little planetoid or something nearby we can use as a meeting spot?”

She glances at her screens, grumbles for a moment, then nods. That’s all you need to know.

“NO YOU BASTARD. I LIKE MY SHIP AND I DON’T NEED YOUR RAMPANT STUPIDITY DESTROYING IT. DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG IT TOOK TO GET THE BLOODBATH TO JUST THE RIGHT VISCOSITY?”

“YOU HAVE A FUCKING BLOODBATH? THAT’S AWESOME. WHEN I KILL YOU I WILL TOTALLY ENJOY USING IT.”

“FAT CHANCE. BUT I’LL HAVE MY PET BIRD SEND ALONG SOME COORDINATES. MEET ME THERE IN AN HOUR WITH SOME PROPER ARMOR.”

That gets another bellowing laugh from him before the screen just goes dark. You let out a very very long and detracted sigh as you turn around to face everyone at large. A look of confusion is on every face save Ignitrix’s, of which alternates between rage and forced calm.

“Were you just…. flirting?” asks Acerea. It’s the most confused you’ve ever heard her be.

Kharn has some experience with romance, don't worry. He set Angron up on a date.

Writing...

>>38777566

You have to stop and think about that one for a second. “You know what, I have no fucking clue. But that’s just how Khornates are supposed to talk to one another!”

Sytili and Kaysis share a look that speaks volumes about their opinion of your sanity. Ignitrix huffs, while Acerea just sort of giggles. “I was just wondering, hun. I’ve never seen you that fired up before.”

“Sure you have,” you protest.

“I dunno~”

A loud and pointed cough from Ignitrix stops this line of thinking thankfully. “So you’re going to go needlessly waste biomass and then kill one another. Great. Sounds like the perfect Khornate date.”

“Jealous are we?” you tease.

“NO.”

She’s totally jealous. And it’s not even a date! You’re just going to kill someone with a little detour along the way to be a good sport! “I’ll make it up to you later, Iggy.”

Her faces scrunches up into a pout as you ruffle her hair again. Meanwhile Sytili asks, “Sssso can I jusssst give you sssome Gauntssss or…?”

We're gunna tear it apart and beat each other with it either way. No sense wasting a Lictor when a couple of Gaunt-pillows will do. Those might last longer too.

In the meantime, you might want to think about how to handle a fight with Kharn.

>>38778303
There's more than walking up to him and hitting him over and over again?

>>38778303
Well I have a strategy in mind

Kharn is a massive warrior of particularly immense stature. Surely if we were to attempt to rend him in some manner that would stress his body mass then we would cause immense amounts of damage.

>>38778418
Are you insane, we only use that as a melee weapon... any other usage is unkhornelike

>>38778466
exactly what he won't expect, and we've only ever used that for its intended purpose before, as a gun

By the way guys, with Khorne demons, we do not need to perma kill them, we just need to kill them once... unlike with other creatures, khorne demons usually respect feets of strength, if you can kill one in fair combat on his ground, he'll look up to you as his superior... He'll also train until he can best you and then do it as soon as possible but thats besides the point.

>>38778166
Temba, his arms closed.

>>38778515
One-Horn, his head smashed in.

>>38778655
And speared.

With his remaining horn.

>>38778655
Ignatrix, her head unpatted, her feathers spread.

>>38778016

You flash her a smile. One that hopefully says “I’m not crazy” and instead says “If what I say next is too dumb you can just say no.”

“We still keep that one Lictor around that you hate, right? Might be a good chance to get rid of it.”

Sytili pauses, considering your notion. “Yeah it’ssss sssssomewhere down on Deck… 12 sssstalking Con’Ree at the moment. Wait…”

The Zoan Prime closes her eyes and shakes her head. “No it appearsssss Con’ree’ssss found it and isss in the processsss of beating it ssssensssselesssss for the umpteenth time. At firssssst I just thought Con’ree wasss good. But know I’m confident itsss genessss are poor. Take it. Pleasssse.”

“As you wish…”

You start to leave the bridge, only to be stopped by Ignitrix once again tugging at your arm. You turn to look and see a rather muted Bird staring back. “Don’t die, you big dumb red thing.”

“Didn’t plan on it, Bird.”

As promised, your shuttle lands on a floating rock amid the burning hulls some forty minutes later. Now that you’re able to look around with your own eyes as opposed to through sensors, you get the sense Helldrool’s fleet was hiding amongst an asteroid field. Though such rocks normally lack gravity and an atmosphere this one in particular has some of both. Maybe about 3/4ths of Terra’s, if you had to guess. Honestly you’re not surprised. You ARE in the Screaming Vortex after all. The rock could turn into a living breathing planet in seconds if it wanted to.

Not that any of it matters. When you step out of the shuttle Kharn’s already waiting for you. His red power armor glinting from the light of some unknown source, he stands with his axe, Gorechild, buried in the ground before him.

(cont)

>>38779051

“SO YOU’RE EARLY,” he begins. “I LIKE IT WHEN THEY’RE EAGER. IT SHOWS SPIRIT! AND HONOR! GOD DAMN IS THAT GREAT.”

After a moment’s pause to let you take that in, he adds, “SO WHERE ARE THESE TYRANIDS OF YOURS?”

>>38779085

It only takes you a few strides to be face to face with the Champion of Khorne. You stare each other down, evaluating your soon-to-be opponent. “I THOUGHT WE MIGHT SHAKE HANDS FIRST. OR DO YOU JUST PRETEND TO BE HONORABLE?”

You thrust out your left hand. He looks down at it and then meets it with his own unarmored one. As soon as the handshake starts you’re in a battle of strength and grip. You have to admit - he’s good. But you’re better. With a challenging growl, you tense your claws and send them digging into his flesh. And yet the handshake continues as blood starts to well up.

“THAT IS A MIGHTY FINE GRIP YOU HAVE THERE.”

“I WISH I COULD SAY THE SAME OF YOURS.”

A retaliatory squeeze from him is easily deflected. As a result he has to be the one to break contact first.

“KHORNE DAMN IT. I WISH YOUR PREDECESSORS WERE HALF AS GOOD.”

Predecessors?

“WHAT ARE YOU BABBLING ABOUT NOW?”

He shakes his hand before placing it back on the pommel of his axe, blood streaming freely from the puncture wounds you made. “OH YOU KNOW. YOU AREN’T THE ONLY ONE AFTER THE BIG CHAIR. I WAS ORIGINALLY TOO BUT THEN I THOUGHT, ‘HEY. WHY SIT AROUND ALL DAY WHEN I COULD BE PUNCHING SOMETHING.’ SO I TOLD THE BIG GUY NO AND HE SAID TO GO MAKE SURE NO ONE GOT HIS CHAIR.”

Ah. So he’s helped you along then. Maybe you should thank-

“BUT ENOUGH ABOUT THAT BULLSHIT. WHERE ARE THESE TYRANIDS OF YOURS?”

You turn and look back at the shuttle. Just in time to see the Lictor skitter out and hurry off towards the horizon. As for the two gaunts, they poke their heads out with a curious “skree?”

>>38779790

“Khorne damn it,” you mutter. “WELL I GUESS WE’LL JUST HAVE TO MAKE IT A COMPETITION THEN.”

“OH? WHAT ARE THE TERMS?”

You spin back towards him and fold your arms across your chest. “FIRST ONE TO KILL THE LICTOR GETS EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS TO DRINK ITS BLOOD. AND CLAIM ITS SKULL.”

A loud crunch follows Gorechild being ripped free and slung over Kharn’s shoulder. “AND THEN WE FIGHT?”

“AND THEN WE FIGHT.”

“FAN-FUCKING-TASTIC!”

And then he takes off running. Damn he’s fast.

>>38780102

Of course, you’re faster. Catching up to him is easy, trivial in fact, but you’re going for style here. As such you start to incorporate your Warp Chains into your stride in an attempt to go even faster. However, due to the planetoid’s odd gravity, you don’t quite get the intended snap-back. Instead you end up maintaining the same speed while looking slightly flashy.

Kharn doesn’t seem to care though. The moment you both catch sight of the fleeing Lictor, he bellows loudly and hefts his axe as if to throw it. “LICTOR. CORNER POCKET.”

The millisecond Gorechild leaves his hand you slam yourself into the ground and tense all of your muscles. All at once you release, exploding yourself forward faster than the twirling weapon.

“YOU CALL THAT A THROW?” you screech as you soar by the axe. Along the way you catch it with a single outstretched hand before bringing it to bear. “THIS IS A THROW.”

Now directly above the Lictor you fling your arm up high above your head. Then you bring it down in on tremendous crash. Gorechild serves its purpose well, cleaving into the Lictor as if the Tyranid was paper. Blood and viscera erupt outwards as the weapon buries itself into the ground and bifurcates the deceased bioform. As for you, you use your grip and momentum to swing yourself back up into the air. There you angle yourself just right to come back down to stand right on the pommel.

“I THINK IT’S CLEAR WHO WON.”

Kharn stops running some five meters distant from you. You see his helmet look you up and down slowly. If you had to guess, he’s re-evaluating his impression of you.

“THAT. WAS. AWESOME.”

“I KNOW RIGHT.”

“WE STILL HAVE TO FIGHT THOUGH.”

“I KNOW.”

Shit. Maybe this is flirting. Damn it Acerea. At least no one’s watching.

…

You HOPE no one is watching.

Mano a mano, as it was in the beginning. Either that or we get a brick on a rope.

Shit I don't have the screencap.
[tg] has a story of a guardsman who killed Kharn with a brick in Only War.

Well even if they are watching it doesn’t matter. There’s only one thing to do now. You hop off of Gorechild to the rocky surface below. Then you kick the axe back into Kharn’s waiting hand.

“THIS WILL BE FUN,” he roars as Gorechild’s teeth become a blur of ripping death. “I DIDN’T EVEN GET TO USE THIS ON THE LAST GUY.”

“IT’S TOO BAD YOU WON’T BE USING IT EVER AGAIN,” you retort, producing your own Firestorm Blade. The moment it settles into your hands Warpfire erupts around the edges, far brighter than any instance of it you’ve seen thus far.

No wonder Iggy’s jealous. You’re going to have to think of something special. But first, Kharn.

Each of you settles into opposing stances and waits, watching the other for the tiniest sign of movement that could betray their intentions.

We're a take charge kind of gal.

>>38781713
>> [1] Wait for him to move first (Per, WS)
Were not going to use that bolter on him, hes earned a fight with us and we sure as hell want to fight him.

Also if we beat him we could totally bring him back with demonic fuckery (however thats done), and he'll probably follow us.

>>38781784

Fire from the Firestorm blade, anon. Not the bolter.

Rolled 58 (1d100)

[1] by a vote.

2d100 vs 45 and 68.

Kharn will be rolling opposed WS checks where appropriate.

Rolled 20, 61 = 81 (2d100)

>>38781957

Rolled 34, 4 = 38 (2d100)

>>38781957

Rolled 59, 53 = 112 (2d100)

>>38781957

Rolled 6, 4 = 10 (2d100)

>>38781957
No idea if I'm doing it right.

Rolled 51, 45 = 96 (2d100)

>>38781957
If we die here, the quest continues indefinitely. I'm not sure what I should be hoping for.

Rolled 32, 21 = 53 (2d100)

>>38781957

Rolled 21, 17 = 38 (2d100)

>>38781957

>>38781988
You did anon, if you were a little faster this'd be super ugly for Kharn.

Rolled 82, 68 = 150 (2d100)

>>38781988
holy shit anon, if only you were 7 seconds sooner

>>38781988
your doing it right, but your too slow at it

>>38781988
Fuck Kharn right in his big stupid pauldrons.

>>38781978
>>38781981
>>38781983

Yeah a 20 and a 4 is more than enough to beat Kharn's rolls. In fact you got so many DoS on that he looks like an amateur. Poor guy.

Do you guys know how to change the refresh rate in appchanx?

>>38782030
even if we "kill him" my guess is that Khorne would see fit to give him a new body after losing to his successor in training

>>38782039
settings button in the corner down to interval, then adjust as needed

>>38782070
that or we punch dad until he brings Kharn back for us because he's a real swell guy

The only source of sound is fabrics and chains blowing in an ominous breeze. Your blood wants you to tunnel vision Kharn but you know better. This is an asteroid floating in the void between two realms of reality. It’s just as unpredictable as the Champion in front of you is. So instead you force yourself to take in every little detail you can. And it pays off.

When Kharn begins to move forward, you realize the horizon of the rock you’re on is rippling. It’s as if a tremor or wave is displacing the surface. Even with the power armor aiding him, the effect is just enough to cause his deliberately minimal swipe across your torso to be a nanosecond too slow.

And a nanosecond is all you need.

Sparks and jets of flame spew forth from where your blade catches Gorechild’s teeth. They screech to a stop and cause Kharn’s arm to vibrate. Again, normally not enough to matter to such a Champion of Khorne, but enough that a daemon like you can use it as leverage. Leverage enough to wrench the axe upwards and give you free reign to plant a knee square across his chestplate.

“HAH! GOOD ONE!” he roars as he’s sent back a meter or so from the force of the blow. “AND TO THINK YOU AND THE OTHER GUY ARE THE ONLY ONES LEFT. A PITY. BUT NOW YOU’VE GONE AND DAMAGED GORECHILD. I CAN’T HAVE THAT.”

Let me axe you a question!

>>38782337

Khornate foreplay and sex leads to someone in pieces. There may not even be penetration involved, let alone anyone getting naked. But SOMEONE gets off on the amount of blood splattered over them.

>>38782269
>> [1] Suggest that he’d better throw it aside then. Because otherwise you’re going to break it worse than Gorefather.
>> [2] See if you can’t get him talking about this other guy while you fight
We'll throw ours if he'll throw his.

>>38782366
Sex with Khornate demons or with khornate cultists usually ends in one or both individuals involved suffering grievous bodily harm...

>>38782371
no mention of what direction we throw it in though
