[singing]
And he knows if you are sleeping,
and he knows if you're awake,
and he knows if you've been bad or good,
so I beg you lest you be burned to death
or tortured until your final breath
to be good for goodness sake!

Ohhhhhhh

You'd better watch out,
you'd better not cry
out against the fundamental injustice of your life
Inquisitor Sandy is coming to your planet!
[/singing]

That's one of my favorite Emperor's Day Carols. Back when I was only six standard Terran years, we were lucky enough to have a visit from the Inquisitor once -- and super lucky that only one hive city was found "naughty" and blown up! When he came to our hive he just brought presents for all the good little kids who informed on their parents (like me! Daddy and me still joke about his five years in the labor camp!) and burned the naughty ones until they were basically lumps of coal. We still celebrate that day as a worldwide holiday!

Warp dust... Do you see, little heretic, how your corrupt ways stand in the way to fulfil your duty to the Emperor? Only a totally debauched and degraded infidel would even think about using warp dust ([ooc] and Matt Ward, most likely [/ooc]).
Give up your evil ways and REPENT or BURN!

Evil!? You call me evil, heretic?

I worship the great and powerful Be'lakor, who has brought safety and sanctity to my planet! Your corpse-god defiles the very meaning of humanity! You destroy worlds, butchering your own people for no reason! We don't kill for such little cause, we bring hope, forgiveness and safety to those who would follow Be'lakor!

Your argument is invalid, prepare to be purged. In the name of the holy Inquisition, we shall never listen to heretics and their lies. BURN THEM ALL! The Emperor will know his own.

I think that little stunt actually earned her a promotion. I was very much at the party. I think I was still off my tits though, because I seem to recall there being something to do with a Bloodthirster and a Jock Strap... What's a jock?

We have misplaced our Zoat Ambassadors for the time being, but we would be happy to observe this event for the glory of the Hive Mind. And don't worry, there will be food for all of us.

Just please ensure you approach from the galactic south... there are some very not tasty things in the way from the north, like my library, which is populated mostly by empty suits of armour and inedible daemons that will reduce your biomass without offering any chance for recovery.

Oh, well, if it's fish you want, then you want to be aiming a little higher than Macragge. I suggest the xeno empire just to the north of there, on the other side of the V.G. rapidity. Best angle of attack would be from the galactic east though, so if you're in the southeastern plane then it might be easier to go for beef instead and head to Gryphonne.

Emperor Day is a revered holiday on the homeworld. All the loyalists are gathered up and fused via warp magic into a single massive flesh effigy of the Emperor which is then burned to the ground.

Chaos Astartes often can be seen line dancing with daemonettes as Noise Marines provide free complimentary music and 'health solutions' that may or may not be made from ground up bloodletters seasoned with the harvested tears of an unlucky eldar.

There's also cake with a daemonette hiding inside.

Remember, this is a "family" site and young children maybe reading these threads.
while the game is about bloodthirsty slaughter, sexual explicitness is not appropriate. true, the game has slannesh, but i have seen the parents of some of the younger players forbid the kids to use slannesh armies and I have even seen a slannesh army "banned" from a store due it's explicitness.

Oh yes, we avoid anything blue or even remotely looking like fish. We carry a rather large number of Carnifex with us, and it's so hard to be taken seriously when you come through these long voyages and descend to a new planet to meet the neighbors and your entire diplomatic corps is covered in Carnifex bio-plasma because someone was feeling sick and couldn't reach the digestion pool in time.
