A Sister Dialogus. Totally need to cosplay a sister dialogus. Unless you are a guy? Then Uriah Jacobus, a.k.a. Hobbo with a shotgun! A S4AP4 assault 2 24" shotgun, iirc!

Amberley Vail - lots of options with her costume and she is awesome

I AM A MARINE PLAYER

"Unimaginably ancient xenos artefact somewhere on the planet, hive fleet poised above our heads, hidden 'stealer broods making an early start....and now a bloody Chaos cult crawling out of the woodwork just in case we were bored. Welcome to my world, Ciaphas."
Inquisitor Amberley Vail, Ordo Xenos

"I will admit that some Primachs like Russ or Horus could have a chance against an unarmed 12 year old novice but, a full Battle Sister??!! One to one? In close combat? Perhaps three Primarchs fighting together... but just one Primarch?" da001

You could be an Adeptus Arbites officer, nothing says "I am the law" like a 40k version of judge dredd.

I had no idea who those were, actually .
If you want to see how the Dialogus can look like:

And I found a bunch of very nice 40k cosplay there:

The one for women are mostly Sisters of Battle, Inquisitor or Commissar. But trolling the hell out of people by cosplaying as a female space marine (preferably a blood angel, with some cosplayer friend as a necron! ) is a nice alternative.
If you do a techpriest costume with real, moving mecadendrites, I will be forever in awe, too.

Nope, but that way she can actually talk!

Adrift within the vortex of my imagination.

Read this book.



Path of the Eldar is a trilogy based on Alaitoc craftworld, now available as an omnibus edition.
Each of the three books is based on a single character, the middle book, Path of the Seer tells the story of Thirianna.
I recommend them for the read and insights into eldar life previously covered only very thinly.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Path-Eldar-Trilogy-Gav-Thorpe/dp/1849705763
Dont necessarily buy from Amazon, just a price indication.

I don't know if Thirianna is the character for you but if you read the books you will find out for yourself.
You appear to want more than just a costume, so recommending a book first is a good way forward.


Book cover


Fan art, not an official depiction.

Thirianna doesn't have the same attention as Macha, but is also not tainted in the same way.

n'oublie jamais - It appears I now have to highlight this again.

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.
