Hail Brothers and Cousins of lore, I am Noctem Cultor, I normally lurk around the Chaos and Forge boards so this is a first time visit here for me. My Night Lords are known as the Warband Of Eviscerated Truth, they are a pure remnant of the Legion untouched by the foul stench of Chaos. http://i932.photobucket.com/albums/ad165/Liamgregg1988/Night%20Lords%20WIP/etfwip_zps0b185f19.jpg I am a poor writer due to my dyslexia and incorrect use of grammar. But I do have plenty of good ideas that just need a sane writer to Translate into decent writings. My Warband blog and finished models are in my signature if interested people want to see what my Warband looks like. But here is a breakdown to what I currently have an in the order I want to translate my stuff. First Post breaks down the characters of my warband. Second Post Is all about the Warband as a whole from their start as Praetor Zaqar from his forced exile from Axemaster Kriegs (Tainted) Warband to the warbands post 13th crusade war with the Sons of Russ. Warlord/Praetor Zaqar Kal Druaga The Untainted Leader of the Warband of Eviscerated Truth. Nickname Zaqar The Pure or Zaqar The Templar by his mocking Brothers due to his Zealot like nature concerning Chaos. His blade is an Exorcised Slaanesh Daemon Blade which he gained when slaying a Slaanesh cult and exorcising the Daemon within the Blade as it attempted to lure Zaqar to its whim. Zaqar used to reside in The Night Lord Krieg (Now Daemon Prince) Warband but discusted with his fall to Chaos all 'in the name of Fear'. He was humiliated and exiled to a barren planet with 3 suns by Krieg as an example after disobeying the Axemaster to many times. Zaqar is adept with Night Raptor assault tactics and has his own jump pack. During the Eye of Terror campaign suprisingly Zaqar flocked to the Prophet Decimus banner and followed his plans without question. After the Ulwthe were left devastated by the VIII Legion and the Night Lords with the Warmasters forces going their separate ways, Decimus told Zaqar his fate was on the Easter Fringes of Imperial space and with his new followers Zaqar left without any more information than blind faith the Prophets vision is true. Zaqars fame/infamy as a Warlord/Praetor grew with each campaign of Terror where he ousted corruption in both his own forces and his prey. The warp does not forget as Zaqars face is scared blinding him in one eye during a duel with a Ulthwé Warlock. While singling out Xenos witch during a raid Zaqars hatred of the Warp spawned powers of Psykers led him to attack head on where he received a warp lighting attack to the face before he decapitated the Warlock whos helmet know adorns his blades hilt. Warship of the Warband 'Fates Shadow' Destroyed in orbit by a Fleet of Space Wolves pursing Skyrar's Dark Wolves. (This starts the Warband's current campaign) Champion Ninu R'ta The Lion of Nostramo Ninu was captured during a Dark Eldar raid on his old broken warband, his brothers slain he was taken to arena pits in the webway. He was 'forced' to slay other Astartes in the most brutal combat of their blood sports. Becoming a favourite due to his inherited talent for murder and lack of feeling for his 'brother' Astartes. Ninu gained his signature weapon a DE gladiatorial weapon which he fashioned into a Nostraman Man Catcher in these fights. His armour repaired by slave creatures of his DE benefactors is a mix match of armour with a unique appearance. It has been repainted bronze with Midnight blue wings adorning his helmet and a Black cape. During the celebrations his captors after a successful fight Ninu killed his guards and snuck on board another ship leaving for realspace. Once in realspace Ninu revealed himself and took over this ship and those DE surviving the attack were tortured and flayed while he drifted in space sending out a distress signal he hoped his brothers of the 8th would get. It was the Warband of Eviscerated Truth who came across Ninu's Signal and after being boarding by the Shadow Hawks Huntmaster Ukur voxed Zaqar and after a tense discussion in which Ukur expressed his desire to leave the Xenos tainted Night Lord to drift Ninu was taken aboard 'Fates Shadow' Since joining the Warband Ninu found no place and was not excepted by any claw, Zaqar decided to issue an open challenge that any of his Warband could challenge Ninu to a Murder Duel removing him from the Warband or giving him place in that Claw. It was Huntmaster Ukur who accepted the challenge, annoyed at the way Zaqar over ruled his want to leave the outsider to drift previously had left a bitter taste in Ukur's mouth. The Warband already convinced that the Warbands Honour guard Huntermaster would seal Ninu's fate gathered to see his blood spilt. As the duel began a change in posture took over Ninu instantly and he was back in the Arena's his Man Catcher slamming into Ukur's Chain glaive and sending it flying. Ukur shocked by this turn of events was then sent spiralling when an uppercut connected to his jaw, landing on his back Ukur found himself pinned by Ninu's weapon at completely at his mercy. Ninu ready to end his challengers life decided a fate more fitting and left Ukur pinned to the floor as he walked out of the duelling cage. Impressed with the fight and the sheer arrogance was left with the decision of what to do with Ninu as due to him not killing Ukur he had not gained the right to join the Shadow Hawks. He decided that by besting his Huntmaster that Ninu would serve the Warband as his Champion and bodyguard a role he accepted. His time with the Warband has not helped Ninu gain any acceptance in the warband, his position has if anything increased the hostility from his brothers. Zaqars trust in Ninu grows as does Ukur's hatred it is only a matter of time until the two will need to end the feud permanently. Another example of Ninu's posistion is the title bestowed on him by his Warband's Brothers, The Lion of Nostramo while outsiders would see this as a title of honour it is merely to mock his Terran birth unlike many of his VIII Legion brothers hailing from the Night Haunter's home planet. Altramentar Vul Gesh Bearer of the Standard of Vindication (An bitter terminator who blames the demise of the Legion on its weak and corrupt, with no desire to lead he helps mould Zaqar into the leader he thinks the VIII needs) He joins the Warbands Terminator honour guard into battle. Night Lord Pilot Hellscream (A member of the Warband out of need than choice. He buts heads with Zaqar often and spends most of his time repairing and customising his stolen Dark Talon Jet fighter) Night Raptors the Shadow Hawks (Disciples of the teachings of the Talon Master Zso Sahaal, they are Zaqars honour guard) Members: Huntmaster Ukur Meltagun Raptor Alû Nusku Raptor Sulak Raptor Galli Raptor Lazule Squat slaves (The Thunderfist brotherhood pledged an oath of service when the Warband accidentally killed an imperial extermination force killing their people.The serve as the legions Mechanics) Belet-Seri The keeper of Souls (Apothecary of the Warband) (He maintains his job of an Apothecary wearing his robes of flayed skin, he is arrogant of his position and is followed by no members of the Warband. These are my minor scribbling's of where I want to focus. I am grateful for any help so if anyone wants to be my official scribe or fancy's taking one of the above let me know so I can supply you with more details on said subject. Cheers.
