Okay. So I was browsin on the Lexicanum and my curiosity lured me into the Eldar section. So I was in there and I seemed to have navigated into the Eldar Gods section to where I saw how the Eldar only had 3 Gods left. One of which only one craftworld truly knows about. Her name was Isha. So far I know that it is rumored Isha is a prisoner to Nurgle who uses her to test his diseases and plagues. Does anyone know anything on this? Are there any stories of this Craftworlds struggles to free their Goddes?

I would be greatly appreciative of the help any one has to enlighten this subject.
But what I find most funny about this is that, well, I'm a Commissar Supporter....so if we could keep this on the down low so I don't get shot for being a heretic that would be great.


Thank to all.......except heretics, blasphemers, and xenos(except the eldar who assist me ^.^)!

It's in the back of the 40k Deamon Codex. A fairly interesting piece of fluff. Mainly becuase it's only alluded to, not confirmed in any manner. Which is exactly the kind of 40k fluff I like to hear. Also, it's a bit of a sad story.

I'm sure some sort of 6th ed Eldar Codex or some trash by C.S. Goto will have a Dues Ex Machina involving mulitlazorz and the SM and Eldar Super-friends saving her. *facepalm* It's inevitable that such an interesting piece of fluff be ruined in such a manner sooner or later...

or telling the back story of how Nurgle pimp handed slaneesh and took Isha back to his kitchen (he isnt that bad he does all the cooking she does all the drinking lol)

Is Isha gonna drink some poison? Or is Pimp Father Nurgle gonna have ta choke a hoe?

An odd relationship to be sure.

at least she suffers for the greater good.....

wait a minute are we sure she isn't a Tau god?

(this is sarcasm for those with no imagination)

Thanks to all you guys
Much Appreciated!

Well....I'm not professional Author but I've been Inspired by a "twist" I plan to put into a Role Play and Reading about Isha. I think I'm going to attempt to write this story....although It will cause my planet to become "heretics" In the Imperiums eyes It must be done for she just sounds amazing and must be resuced by the heretics that serve the God of Filth Nurgle!
Good thing we have vast supplies of Germ-X and Oxy-Clean
But I'll probably start writing as soon as the Role Play is at an end....but I'm feeling pretty.........hyped about the idea so who knows....I may start early!

But...it's just a rumour...Not even that, only a single Craftworld talks about this rumour. Where do humans come in?

Yea...when I read about the Craftworlds it was involved in like..............less than one sentence.
I don't know....I was trying to figure that out....but.....creating a new character would feel....wow this will sound pretty dumb.
But it would feel like I'm partially abandoning myself. cause I've had my current character in mind for Sooooo long and actually started as a alternate Identity for myself.(Although the Commissar wasn't added till I got REALLY into Warhammer 40k)

But....if need be. I may have to create a new persona.

Although now that I think about it.....I read how the craftworld Uthwe (this is the craftworld that I read "mentioned" Isha) usually intervenes a LOT with other races and this could be for some reason that my characters home planet is affected in one of these intervenes.

But I'm running into problems with debating what I should do. Any Advice?

You know what....forget about the last post....
My mind is set. Thank you guys for discussing this with me.
I appreciate the help on this matter....although it will probably make some people mad
well I can only simply say to that
The Emperor and Gods work in mysterious was.

Thanks much guys ^.^

To be fair, Nurgle actually adores her. He just conveys his love for her by giving her various plagues and diseases.

@Commissar: I suppose Ulthwe or some other form of Eldar Dickery (Ulthwe isn't the only with Farseers, not by far), could result in Imperials being tricked into doing most of the dying for them.

The notion that humans would willingly aid Eldar in the full knowledge that they were going to rescue an Eldar godess is slightly 'off'. There would have to be something in it for them, or they would have to be ignorant of thier true objectives. (Which would make for a very interesting finale)

Ulthwe is known for having the best Farseers though so it wouldn't be too hard for them to trick some IG into freeing Isha if the chance ever came up. Khaine might be a bit annoyed though, but that prophecy is done so I'm not sure if he will still be annoyed. Only problem is Asuryan's barrier, but I think the birth of Slaneesh fixed that up.

Khaine is getting raped by every second Space Marine he comes across. I don't think his opinion really matters right now.

not_u is right. Ulthwe has the best and most numerous Farseers considernig it is RIGHT next to the Eye of Terror.
Plus I was thinking of the Imperial Planets being "abandoned by the Imperium" as Chaos comes to attack.(For reasons of abandonment I'm thinking they consider my planets not important enough to split the forces of the fleet that is not so near by.)

Possibly Nurgles filthy followers. Thus since the Ulthwe are probably always fighting for their goddess. Seek Imperial aid. Thus wraping up the inhabitants in a fight for a godess of their supposed Xenos enemy.

Crap....I mean not Farseers....I think I remember right and it said Warlocks.....therefore there would be more competition to be a better Farseer so yea...not more Farseers....Just stronger ones.
