Its hard to be awesome, when your playing with little plastic men.
Welcome to Fantasy 40k
If you think your important, in the great scheme of things. Do the water test.
Put your hands in a bucket of warm water,
then pull them out fast. The size of the hole shows how important you are.
I think we should roll some dice, to see if we should roll some dice, To decide if all this dice rolling is good for the game.

Yep.
The Catholic church tends to use a bit of morbid imagery, so it only makes sense that the IoM (a parody of the Catholic church), does the same.
It's a fascinating place. I would like to visit the Sedlec Ossuary one day.

I don't know whether to consider this beautiful or horrifying. I would love to see this in person.

Ah, ossuaries. The most beautiful mass graves you will ever see.
All those individuals undoubtedly paid most of what they had for this privilege- this was the cheapest way to be buried on consecrated ground.

If this was proper GW architecture there would be giant skulls on the walls and dead Cadians on the floor.

Thought for the day: Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.

It would be called the Ossurum and be lifted from some obscure RT illustration. Sadly, it would look nothing like the original vision.

Highlord with a Blackstone Fortress

That place isn't trying hard enough.
Decorate the walls with a few dozen skulls and you get an informal lounge space.
Line the walls with skulls and you get an office.
Fill the room with skulls and you have an ossuary.
Then add a notice on the ossuary door reading 'Architectural supplies'.

It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. By the juice of the brew my thoughts aquire speed, my mind becomes strained, the strain becomes a warning. It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. |
