Of course he dislikes the character!

1. Greystone was buddies with some Xenos (the Archon) who had renegade Space Marine in his employ.

2 The Inquisitor is clearly insane!

3. To have superiors outranking a Lord Inquisitor possibly implies some daemonic or non-Imperial ones (as Lord Inquisitors tend to for the leadership within and Ordo).

I can understand why he neither likes or trusts Greystone.

Hell, I may be *Censored by Inquisitorial Decree* but even I'm wary of the enigmatic character.

Demogorgon finished with the last of the barbarians. they were arranged in a loose star, an eight pointed, heretical symbol.

Demogorgon heard some fizzling as Bharbhu waved his manreaper and muttered an incantation.

the Terminator Lord strode to a cage filled with frightened feral-worlders. no doubt they believed him a messenger of Death. ironic. he thought as he flung the cage into a shallow pit in front of the Ark.

Bharbhu's chanting grew louder, the barbarians begane to simply vanish into the immaterial. Demogorgon watched, slightly bored.

the chanting grew to a crescendo and the barbarians all vanished.

Demogorgon picked up the Ark."

"come, the Master needs more souls."

Yeah but it seems Marta keeps out-ranking anyone, even Inquisitors. Anyways Mr.Censored will be talking soon anyways......

Nah Ive got nothing against him, and Greystones superiors are on an even keel with me. so pffft.

(bic)
"Typical cowardly dog... Alright get Greystone in here, but the rest of you leave. If that portal opens because that fool was hindering me then he will be the first person, alongside myself, to feel its brunt."

So what If I outrank him? Its going to happen at some stage in an RP that someone outranks the NPC's, I mean look at the last few, weve had the good Shas'o outranking all of his Npc's, why should the rest of us be different?

Well he has built up Kais' rank from Shas'Ui to Shas'O over the course of a fair few RPG's alongside blood reaper, so I think that is fair game (he did the hard way).

Demogorgon commands an army of over 500 CSM, (Read: Space Hulk) but decided not to bring them into this RP. my command is just five termies, two of them are lords. a lot more balanced this way.

oh yes, and the Ark.

I want to know about this Ark and yes Shas has been since the first Warhammer 40,000 RPG (Not Eye of Terror) and Mystery of Commoragh which I'd love to re-do and has worked his way up from Fire-Warrior to his rank, I care little but Greystone's not afraid of you at all.

Greystone smiles and raises his Shot-Gun and pumps it;

"That 'coward' is making his way to the lower levels, I've guessed that the Key would be down their somewhere and would be heavily defended by automatic defensive systems and possibly servitors. We should be prepared for an ambush, its in his nature. He keenly studied the tactics of all the primarchs and is fairly well equipped, for a traitor dog. Now Let us move my friend, and do I get any last requests before I'm shot? I'd love to hear some nice music ha ha ha."

Greystone runs straight into the complex.

PM on your way.

Helmian draws his sword and follows in somewhat more cautiously.

Greystone moves in and takes cover behind a stone pillar and points towards a Chaos Terminator patrol, all bearing the marks of the Word Bearer Legion while the remains of the Emperors Children scattered around the floor. Greystone pulls out a grenade and smoke bomb and quickly runs over to Guees;

"If I can pop a smoke then a frag those Terminators will have no clue what hit em, then we slice and dice the heretics."

dude, learn to spell his name right i wont say it again

(BIC)
Helmian looks at the terminators, all power weapons and twin linked bolters, no power fists no lightening claws.
"A krak grenade wont do much to those brutes, I shall deal with them personally. You deal with the emperors children. I would appreciate a smoke throw however."

(It seems to change )

"There's nothing but tatters of there broken bodies left, I'll throw a smoke happily however."

Greystone throws a frag directly at the Termaintors who fire rapidly in multiple directions trying to pin-point the ark of the throw;

"Find the whelp who dared assail us!"

G a you s s e not gaeese or guasse or gauuse Gausse

(BIC)
Helmian moves with grace and speed through the smoke, neatly avoiding their fire arcs. The first falls silently to his Glaive through his head, but the crashing sound of his armoured body hitting the floor alerts the others, by the time they found the corpse Helmian had already wiped out a straggler with his inferno pistol. The resulting flames ate away at the smoke and Helmina was forced to charge. He ducked a blow clumsy from haste and his inferno pistol slotted neatly under the terminators shoulder pad. A quick squeeze of the weapons trigger melted the torso of the hapless traitor. Helmian pivoted on his toe throwing his weight to the side and managed to hit the ground rolling out of the way of a shower of bolter shells which ate up the floor in explosions. The floor's material however was unharmed.

Helmian rose and his Glaive hacked through the closesty terminators knees bringing the warrior to the ground where Helmians pistol saw to his head. The final Terminator charged in and swung heavily with a shock mace at Gausse's chest. But the Glaive in Helmian's hands blocked it soundly and then Helmian's lightning quick counter offensive saw the Terminator with Helmian's sword through his chest. A hefty tug and the weapon slid free.

The Terminator falls back and hits the ground like a concrete block, Greystone coming up behind Gausse and smiling behind his newly equipped helm. He brings up his shotgun in union as Chaos Cultists and Heretics move throw several door ways towards the two, they quickly begin to rise into the air and explode as Daemons use their broken souls as gateways. Bloodletters of Khorne begin to form through the shattered and broken bodies of the Chaos minions and snarl at the two Inquisitors swinging their blades and hissing with dark intentions as they move forward towards the Imperials. A Bloodletter herald stands at the front of the group carrying a long twin hand Glaive and protected by brazen plated sheets of armour studded with broken bone and the skulls of its defeated foes;

"Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the Skull throne! Let the universe drown!"

Greystone smiles and aims his shotgun at the Daemons before uttering a prayer to the Emperor;

"The more the merrier!"

The Daemons charge as Greystone opens fire, one of the foul creatures falls and splinters into shards of burning fire and bone before another Daemon is reduced to ash. The Herald swipes at Greystone who starts firing on the massive Bloodletter.

Post removed from double post, sos guys

blood reaper wrote:"Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the Skull throne! Let the universe burn

Fixed it for you

Helmian moves into the breach tearing at the Bloodletters with a vengeance

Actually the term comes from DOW Winter Assault, just a slight adjustment to the term.

The Herald leaps at the mighty Inquisitor who justs blocks the Daemons attack with his own blade pushing the beast slightly away but the Daemon instantly returns by swinging his blade to push away and parry the attacks of Helmian, he smiles a dark smirk and bows before rising quickly;

"A mighty one you are, you remind me of my fallen master. Yes you are the one, you are the one indeed but will your tests be able to pass the tests of the mighty one little Inquisitor? Come slay me!"

Boss fight: Herald of Khorne
Rewards: Soulstone, broken key of the 13th Saint

I have returned!

Sorry, I've been really busy recently... If some one could give me a synopsis of what has happened since I became absent, I would be more than grateful (PM or posting it here would be nice).

Gausse, Greystone and the Commisar have landed on the planet and are trying to secure the artifact and another Chaos lord has arrived while Lord X'carhis is orchestrating events for his dark rise. As well as two other special powers, also where is Shas?

In game:

My shards......

... ...Scattered and broken.......

Still remain.........on this bleak world....

And.......I shall return......come.......come to me my followers......I seek you....

.......Come to me......you shall be blessed.....

Last I checked, I was part of Gausse's retinue, so I guess I'm there on the planet with them.

I aint missing this boss fight!

Vic stares at the advancing Chaotic monstrosities, staying stalwart in his defence of his master. He would not let Helmian come to harm, even if it meant giving up his own life. He looked back at Kat, who was shaking slightly. They had fought heretics before, but this was the first time they had witnessed the true forms of Chaos.

He had seen his master slice through the Chaotic Terminators, and he had dispatched two of them himself, using the Power Sabre he had been gifted so long ago.

However, they were small fry in comparison to the anathema spawned abomination which towered above them. The beast, a "Herald of Khorne" Greystone had called it, wore a malicious grin on it's face as it leapt at Helmian. Throwing his Laspistol and Power Sabre aside, Vic ran towards one of the corpses of the Chaos Space Marine Terminators. He grabbed a corrupted twin bolter and turned to face the one on one battle between the Daemon and the Inquisitor.

"Helmian! Duck!" Vic bellowed, as he unloaded a full payload of bolter rounds into the warp spawned beast.

However, the recoil from the weapon was too much for the mortal human, and Vic was projected backwards, before falling to the ground.

Blood Reaper ducked out of the way, he was annoyed. This one, this creature had accutally fired a weapon at him. He would enjoy this battle, he drew his second blade and placed his Glaive into it's slot, he bowed and grabbed the broken boy by his back. He could feel the shattered bones and broken marrow, he grinned. Weak and unruly but a perfect one for his goals, raising a wall of fire around the two Blood Reaper tossed a sword to the human and bore his;

"Come!"

OOC: Eek! Looks like I'm finished!

"Your friends cannot save you!"

Reaper swipes at Vic, he knows he's doomed but opens his eyes and see's he's blocked the attack and swipes at the Herald but these are not his own movements, far to skilled;

"....Do.....nothing but.......keep calm...."

"For the The Emperor... " Vic gasped, as he threw the empty twin-bolter into the Daemon's face. In this slight moment of confusion, Vic managed to grab his Power Sabre in a swift movement.

The blade ignited immediately and Vic swung it into the Daemon's neck. A feeling of power coursed through his veins as he began to hack into the Herald of Khorne.

Helmian had seen the Captains gambit and had commended the man, if he died then he would be a Matyr of some weight within the Inquisition. But he wasn't dead just yet. As the captain swung at the daemons neck and his swords field activated Helmians blade also tore into the daemons back. It screeched along daemonic bones as it severed the Heralds spine from tailbone to skull.

Blood Reaper smiled as his head was severed from his body, he had successfully insured that his plans could not fail and his remains turned to dust leaving only a broken shrine and dead soul stone. Vic grabbed the stone, it was tiny dead and grey but there was still something left. Some vague power, Vic hid it from the arriving Storm Troopers and the Inquisitors documenters and other servants as they begin secure the base. And Vic heard it, the voice of foul screeches and dark intent;

"Yes.........they are your true.....foe....not I......and I shall.....grant you...power.....but hide your loyalties.....I shall return.....to weakened."

really? I had plans for that.
ah well

(BIC)
Helmian saw the Captian slip the soulstone into a pocket but frankly couldnt care, should the marine become corrupted Helmian would execute him without a second thought, sometimes being one of the astartes was a boon.

You still get the shrine

Greystone looks down on the ashes of the Daemon and picks up a small grey shrine, a dragon like shrine dotted with Eldritch soul stones. He hands it to Helmian and moves on to investigate the other Daemonic remains.

Anyway, GS could you please do a post just explaining what Kais needs to do, cos I am a little unaware...

... I just need a bit of detail...
