I love the universe and theme of Warhammer 40k since I was child. I don't play the tabletop game but I instead play Dawn of War trilogy. I'm also not a strong writer and my grammar isn't great. So I do apologize for my atrocious typing. I decided to join the forum for hopes of creating fluff with other people or discussing lore of warhammer 40k. I'm a noblebright...I just want to get that across. I really enjoy the concept of people overcoming obstacles becoming a Mary sue (jk) in warhammer 40k dispute the grimdark and gritty themes of warhammer.

My end of goal of this year is to create a typical complex background story or actually real story for my own and anyone entertainment, it's about a Xeno Ordo inquisitor name Callian The Scorn and his retinue of misfits being involve in exodite world known as Felwinter. The story doesn't mainly revolve around the inquisitor but his silent and stoic right hand man Shi hario (the name can be change anytime.) . Obviously, you can tell by the name his ethnicity is of a Asian descendant. I'm not striving to create a anime arc or create a bland Mary sue. I thought it would be a cool idea to explore different ethnicity of warhammer 40k.

Shi hario a descendant of a long forgotten feudal world that places honor and loyalty above all exemplified one of the old ancient Terran warrior culture long forgotten now. He witness how the world of Felwinter and the exodites tear apart his Inquisition retinue slowly as they travel to investigate a ancient city of the exodites in highest mountains of Felwinter known as Lon's Gate. Inquisitor Callian determine to learn secret of Lon's Gate and other secrets it might hold.

Overview
Felwinter a heavily forested world cover in snow all around the world. It's another world where only the strong survive and those who fail to adapt dies. It’s wildlife consists of apex predators and other animals that arrived from Frenis after the Great Crusade, The Frensian wildlife were introduced by group of pirates who planned to use Felwinter as a exotic hunting ground; Fenrisian wolves, drakes, great white bears, fenrisian mammoths, and frensian elks were brought in from Frenis. The introduction of the frensian wildlife to Felwinter almost replace the original wildlife. Felwinter's remaining wildlife that survived were the felwinter dinosaurs, felwinter white ravens, and the felwinter great white lions.

The Felwinter’s original inhabitants are the exodites who rule and roam the world. They are directly and spiritually connected to the world just like the craftworld eldars, The world houses the spirits of all fallen exodites in Felwinter. Those fallen exodites spirits are deeply rooted in the world, they have everlasting influence on felwinter growth and condition. When the introduction of the fenrisian animals came to Felwinter from the pirates. The exodites call it “The Time of the Taming” where they spent millenniums cultivating and learning to tame most of frensian wildlife and same time removing the pirates from the world.The frensian wildlife multiply tenfold almost replacing the existing wildlife, but the exodites learn to tame the frenzy wolves, drakes, white bears, and elks. The exodites manage to bring stability back to Felwinter’s environment and wildlife. The frensian wildlife after millenniums still retain the same physical traits and attributes of their native homeworld.

The exodites call themselves the Frost Athains (lords), but before they title themselves the Frost Athains. They were once divided into two large tribes a millennium ago over a dispute whether the exodites should integrate more technology in their lifestyles.

This dispute was controversial for the Felwinter’s exodites. The two tribes were split one calling themselves the Cor’sum who supported integration for more technology, while the other tribe call Sa’ume rejected the idea. The sa’ume became a nomadic tribe exploring the in and out of felwinter. While Cor’sum begin creating a magnificent city filled with technology that could help cope with the harsh winters. Though, the felwinter’s exodites learn to tame wildlife of the world. It still didn’t stop the predators from hunting the exodites especially a megasaurus.

The Cor’sum and Sa’ume continue on with their lifestyle, the Cor’sum had turn Felwinter’s largest and highest mountain into a city naming it Lon’olace. Lon’olace attaining similar architecture of a eldar craftworld city but still having a tribal aspect to it. The Cor’sum had a pleasant lifestyle and slowly relinquishing the old exodites way of life. The Cor’sum steadily working and progressing their technology and lifestyle just like their craftworld counterpart.

The Sa’ume on other hand also progress in their lifestyle and culture. They begin taming and riding the fenrisian wolves as their mounts. Since, felwinter’s dinosaurs, drakes, great white bears, and the lions live closer to the mountains where Cor’sum live. While fenrisian wolves can be find almost everywhere in Felwinter hunting down mammoths and elks, the wolves had became a trademark in Sa’ume tribe. A Sa’ume tribesman was always seen with a wolf on his side. Sa’ume became fierce riders and knew every details about Felwinter.

The Sa’ume and Cor’sum both bitter and disappointed at each other choices change when the arrival of a necron dystany.

I hit a writer block after this and I need research more on the necron lore to progress the development of the world and my story. I really want feedback on how I can improve or change the fluff on my world. All this background story is subject to change. I just wanted create a world that has snowy temperament and wolves. I really would like if people provided their own two cent and addon to this little project of mine or share there own aspirations of their own created worlds or stories.

Thanks Dakka and people who took their time to read this heretic's post . Mahalo!

Looks cool to me. I like creating things in the 40K framework, though mostly miniatures campaigns and scratch built figures/terrain. I've done an Asian theme army myself, http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/494987.page

I also think that exodites riding wolves is way cooler than dinosaurs. There are also asian themes in Eldar Fluff that you could bring in. Though it does seem to me that Anime and 40K don't mesh well, but maybe it can work.

Thank you bro! I would really like to bring out more of a Asian theme from the exodites. I imagine my exodites displaying a hybrid of viking and Mongolian culture. DUDE! I love your fluff of your world! Its fantastic! Is it okay for you if I use your world as the origin of my character Shi Hario? I always had a hard time trying to develop a imperial world and none of them satisfy my taste. I love how consistent your world is to the culture of Japan. DON'T GET ME STARTED ON HOW AWESOME YOUR MODELS ARE! They're absolutely badass man!

Sure, rock on. Always glad to share. Princess Monoke is a great movie that includes riding wolves if I remember correctly. Add a little tech llike power lances and I think you'd have something pretty neat. You should probably start a thread in the Fluff section - let me know where and I'll subscribe it.

Im not an expert, so take my words with a grain of salt, but with Necron "invasions" there are actually two paths you could take. First, the traditional "purge organic life from the universe" invasion force from an established dynasty (the dynasty in question depends on which ones border this is under). The second route (ans I believe the more fitting one considering the Eldar references in the Felwinter cultures) is the resurfacing. You could have Felwinter be an awakening tombworld with a fresh dynasty as its herald. In fact, in the back of the 6th ed. Necrons rulebook under the legendary artifact version of the resurrection orb (I forget what its called) it tells of a destroyer cult "liberating" said artifact from a people who worshipped its power to fix and enhance their technology. Perhaps the secret of Lon's gate is a lost resurrection orb forgotten by the Canopteks as they sealed their masters in the Great Sleep.
And coveted as they awaken.

Maybe I'm reading too deep, or imposing my head-canon on yours,
but Necrons would fit perfectly into the circumstances you speak of.

Cheers, and welcome to the Dakkaspace!

"At the point in time when bullets can pass through the interdimensional walls. When firepower takes up the entirety and eternity of space and time, all beings stuck in a neverending life and death cycle as bullets recover and destroy their bodies in quick succession. No one is able to think about anything but the sheer force of the bullets rapidly flying literally everywhere in the materium turning the warp itself into nothing but a sea of semi-automatic weaponry.. Then there will be enough dakka. Or, at least almost." -The Glorious God Emperor of Mankind
