I wonder if Mordoskul would re-join to take the role, do you think he would?

PS: Its no him, its someone else its not (CENSORED) but someone else.

Hmm, not sure...

... but I don't remember this mystery villian or whatever that much...

... hmm, I might have to check the previous RP's...

Really? No ones guessed? Its quite easy because he's not that old, has everyone forgotten the Eye o' Terror?

Ummm, uhh...

... yeah, kinda...

OK, I don't think anyone's going to get it....

....Because I'm distracting you ha ha ha, so I can revive another dead character. A far more vile character......

Come on......you all must know this?

Chaos?

Yes. Clue two

Religion.

Uhhh, Judaism?

Wasn't he, like, something to do with Kremlin?

Not Kremy, he's Russian.

OK, another clue

He's insane.

I really dont care, the new Marius will be... different...

OK Marta, also I did not want you to turn to Chaos or go Renegade. Just respect Greystone's leadership.

Pfft youve been leading me towards chaos for the last three RP's forgive me for not taking that one on the nose, either way it was a bit frustrating once again having any authority I may have had undermined. Regardless this new character has no superiors for you to control just yet. And when they do come I think I shall control them anyway, I have a plan... a plan that involves the codex that I wrote...

Anyhoo... The new marius char sheet.... going up asap

Character Sheet
Name Marius Ichorskin, The Leviathan

FactionSpace Wolves, Wolf Lord

AppearanceThe heavy set Marius is a giant among giants, without armour he stands at around eight feet tall and with armour that stretches to nearly three meters. When He dons Terminator battle plate he nearly tops forteen feet. Marius is essentially a Leviathan when he dons his standard runic armour and this gives him his moniker, the Grey Hunters of his great company tell quietly that the only reason Marius has grown to be so tall is that every time he would be close to dying, the deathwolf Morkai instils him with extra vigour and strength. The patterns of deepsea beasts that cover his armour are a testament to his extreme affiliation with the great creatures of fenris and the tattoo of a kraken that wraps around his head is a pinpoint of this. That tatto is always visible as he wears no helmet and his bald pate is plain to the air. But nothing points his strength out more than the weapon he wields. His right hand is never without his custom frost blade, forged by the lead Iron Priest on Fenris it is a masterwork weapon named Serpent tooth. The weapon is just under two and a half meters long and is four inches wide, the titanic blade is ringed with terrifyingly sharp points of ultra hard alloy suppossedly naturally found in the meteors that occaisionally fall on Fenris. The metal is a pressure alloy of carbon and titanium which creates a substance many times harder than diamond and has to be cut to shape with engineering lazers. When the weapons teeth begin to whir there is nothing, not skin, not armour, not even the armoured hull of a dreadnought that can withstand the weapons edge. Marius wields this weapon with the easy grace, often with one hand, born from five thousand years of wielding the blade. His right hand is often equipped with a frost shield. The powerful ward sits on his right arm like a slab of solid ceramite, and from a distance it certainly appears that way. But up close one can see the details on its surface, the perfectly circular shield is embossed with the personal image of Marius, The Leviathan from which he gets his moniker. The many limbed Kraken with a tentacle spread to the cardinal points is a terifying sight to behold, as the shield is about a meter in diameter and the personal image of the Leviathan is known to all those who would fight against the Wolf Lord. Behind him the swirling cloak which gives him his name is perched almost permanantly, the flowing skin of a carnifex flenced from its dead and puckered hide is a fitting tribute to the power of the Wolf lord.

Background The Leviathan is older than all of the wolves of Fenris, far older. The only that can outstrip him in age are the Wolf priests and Bjorn himself and his Saga is many times longer than that of even the Great wolf. But Marius has never aspired to the position of Great Wolf, he has always been more than content in his own great company, training the warriors of might that have become to be known as the Teeth of the Leviathan. These powerful warriors are nothing short of the best close combat fighters that the sons of Russ can field. The wolf Guard of Marius is a common recruiting ground for the great wolf's own Wolf guard. And indeed even his Grey Hunters are powerful fighters who favour assault weapons so as to close with their foes. His long fangs are the only exceptin to this, Marius is a brutal tactician and he knows that until his fighters get up close they need cover, and so he makes every effort and allowance to ensure that his long fangs are equipped with the most potent of wargear. Thier weapons and armour are econd to none and he even has many of them equipped with priceless runic armour to ensure that their work is uninterrupted. Marius has precious few battle tanks in his great company, instead his warriors (and tactics), favour a head on assault, filled with light armoured vehicles and his own command vehicle, a landraider Redeemer named "The breath of the Kraken".

Marius rose to power by being a straightforward but efficient warrior, his aptitude for tactics came later. Indeed his claiming of the pelt that adorns his back came when he was still a blood claw. The brutal nature of the kill while wielding his then power sword went down in the saga's as worthy of praise for the rest of known time. Aside from that his actual career was uneventful, but vicous and predictable. Battle after battle he threw himself into for nearly a hundred years, earning kill after kill as a blood claw before finally being given the mantle of Grey hunter, the decision was a hard one for his superiors to make, because he was a brutal fighter and that skillw as often best ustilised on the forefront of battle, but his immense skill had to be tempered and given polish, so in lieu of this he was elevated to the rank of Grey Hunter, but around him were placed many warriors of his type, better in close, than out in the field. It was around this time that the great company's wolf priest began to tailor him. The entire company knew that the Wolf Lord they had was waning, too many battles had seen his mind torn to shreds and he was little more than a figurehead for the army. And many understood that the Leviathan, as he was coming to be called, was fit for the task. First however he would have to become a Wolf Guard.

Marius' time in the Grey hunters was little more than a formality, a furthur five decades of service and he was elevated without compromise to the ranks of the Wolf guard. His time in the Grey hunters was not wasted however and his keen tactical mind began to emerge, slowly the Leviathan began to make tactical anylisis of battlefields and situations and voicing his ideas before the older Wolf guard members could make similar, if less indepth assessments. The Leviathan began to accumulate supporters, his following grew until, as a Wolf guard battle leader. He was in reality the true leader of the Great company. Slowly Sven Bloodhowl, was removed from the seat of power that many had seen him in for nearly a millenia and Marius took the stage. He was an instant fit, his tactics and ideal's quickly garnering support with the other Wolf Lords and many thought it was only a matter of time until he became the great wolf. But as the centuries passed on and The Leviathan's great company grew mmore and more accustomed to their task Marius realised that he was more use to the Imperium fighting in his own way, than have to command the greater chapter. And so when the vote came and his name was cast he denied the chance, taking his calling in the right hand of the Wolf Lord, the Hammer of Fenris, the Leviathan. After five thousand years however he has heard news of stirrings of trouble within the Eye of terror, and Marius Ichorskin, The Leviathan, realised that it was his time to etch his name into the saga's for all eternity, and so he declared a personal crusade into the eye, backed up by his great company. The Leviathan and its teeth descended into the eye of terror.

Equipment
The Leviathans armour, Ichorskin, Serpent tooth, the Kraken's maw.
The Leviathan's armour: This Runic armour is so massive that it is nearly equal with tactical dreadnought battle plate, and as such it is nearly impossible to penetrate. (2+ 4++ vs psyker powers)
Ichorskin: This cloak is a symbol of the Leviathan's power and as such is a symbol of hope for allies. (Marius and his retinue are fearless)
Serpent tooth: The massive frost blade is a terror of a weapon to face on the battle field and with Marius' prodigous strength behind its whirring teeth it can chew through almost anything. (Power weapon, +1 strength, 2d6 armour pen)
The Kraken's maw: This dominating storm shield has protected Marius from death on more than one instance, infact, the shield is such a symbol of his indomitable will that many enemies would rather flee than continue to fight against such a warrior. (3++, when Marius always counts as having caused an additional wound for combat resolution.)

(I added the stats to give an idea of his... meatynessness)

Name: Syrath the Immortal, Saint of Chaos Undivided, Bringer of Evil, Lord of Vermin
Background: Syrath was originally a Lord of Change of Tzeentch who was as devious as his creator. Syrath began by sealing daemonic pacts with many lesser daemons of the Other Chaos God's in order to further his own goals. The pacts granted to the greedy daemons gave them part of Syrath's own power in exchange for them fighting for Syrath. However these pacts had hidden terms and conditions which entirely changed the allegiance of the gullible daemons from their patron god to Syrath. During the Age of Strife, before the birth of She Who Thirst, Syrath was sent by Tzeentch to sap the essence of Malal in order to strengthen the power of the Lord of Destiny. Syrath succeeded in his task too well and while Tzeentch had his might bolstered, Syrath also gained significant influence over his fooled daemonic minions and gained the ability to fashion his own evil beings from warp energies.

Many of the ostracised psyker's who where persecuted on their homeworld's during the Age of Strife pledged their souls to Syrath. They became powerful sorcerers able to bend the warp to their will. They where also granted the ability to summon daemons who where pledged to Syrath's service. Many of these sorcerers where granted daemonhood by Syrath after they sacrificed the populations of entire planets to seal more daemonic pacts and summon Horror's in their thousands. As a result Syrath gained several strongholds in Segmentum Obscurous before the Adeptus Astartes even took to the stars. Over the millennia, Syrath the Immortal eventually became Tzeentch’s most favoured servant. Syrath had proved to be exceptionally cunning and devious and had tricked the populations of entire planets into the service of Tzeentch. However, this position would not last. During the Horus Heresy Syrath began to plot against his master and he devised a scheme to sap Tzeentch’s power for himself. Syrath then intended to sacrifice Millions of his servants at the exact moment the Emperor was slain in order to elevate himself to Godhood. Tzeentch still fed off of Syrath’s scheming until he deemed that it was a good time to react. The Architect of Fate exiled Syrath from his realm as a punishment for his active betrayal. Syrath was forced into the material realm and materialised on a war torn Prospero, as Space Wolf ships hung in the air. He managed to aquire the help of a young Thousand Son named Valox Marus who helped Syrath (who had taken the form of a blind remembrancer) get off world. This Astartes would later be renamed Arrius, destined to become one of the greatest Daemon Princes of Syrath.
