Grand Master Tyrak Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Again due to the debate about Loken being alive or dead, my second question is this. Who would you want to stay alive? Pick a single character from the HH series of books and treat it as if you had the power to ensure their survival. Who would it be?

Ensis Ferrae Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 this doesnt really count, because he's not been mentioned... yet. i want to find out the back story on Bjorn the Fell-handed... i mean, i want the cinematic, description of the epic brawl that lead to his being interred into the Dreadnought sarcophagus. of the mentioned characters, id like to know more about Iacton Qruze... or Hurtado from Legion :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157917-horus-heresy-characters-part-2-of-2/#findComment-1848374 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Master Tyrak Posted January 18, 2009 Author Share Posted January 18, 2009 All right, you can include characters who have been around in the generic backstory (the short version from the codicies) if you want. Sangunius would be an obvious example of someone you might want to stay alive even though the backstory has him dying to Horus.

Yaji Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 John Grammaticus! I wanna read more books starring him. He could have his own series, it would be awesome!

lmyrick Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 John Grammaticus! I wanna read more books starring him. He could have his own series, it would be awesome! I'll second Grammaticus. Legion was awesome and with Grammaticus and the Alpha Legion it was like HH meets The Spy Who Came in from the Cold.

Lord Lorne Walkier Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Loken if i had to choose one. The only reason why is because i feel if he did live it would have to be Travitz who saved him, a two for one if you will.

lee265 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Hurtardo from legion. Also Grammaticus makes referrence to the cabal bringing him back from death before so he could easily be back.

Hurtardo from legion.Also Grammaticus makes referrence to the cabal bringing him back from death before so he could easily be back. The book ended with Grammaticus saying he would go and jump out the airlock, but he didn't really die in the book. I'm hoping the cabal either stopped him or brought him back :P Im thinking the eldar cabal shot him in the back and as Gram fainted, he stould over him and said something like "mon keigh, you are too valuable, we have more missions for you" :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157917-horus-heresy-characters-part-2-of-2/#findComment-1849554 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JEFF4i Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Hmmm....from the Heresy in general? Lord Dorn. From the HH books? Skraal, :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157917-horus-heresy-characters-part-2-of-2/#findComment-1850919 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor Engel Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I would love to see a book about the World Eaters previous to Angron's turn, preferably heavily featuring Skraal. During the Crusade and such, fighting alongside the Ultramarines and Sons of Horus, the whole descent into barbarism and bloodshed, I'd love to see it. I'd also like such a book to have "tactical" World Eaters, when fighting by themselves, the World Eaters could put out a balanced, disciplined force but when supported by other Legions, they let their bloodlust go free, leaving the bolter-fire to the other Astartes...

vulkan's wrath Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 goooo torgaddon! he was an awesome character, but i guess im the only one with love for him. :( gabriel santar and the loyalist world eater from galaxy in flames, ehlren i think his name was, would both have been cool to keep alive. I'll close by saying KILL COMMANDER EDILON!

Brother-chaplain Astador Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 The Iron Hands captain from Fulgrim, can't remember his name, Santar or something. He seemed like a good Marine without having the stereo-typical "Loken" attitude on things. If he didn't hesitate to kill that Emperor's CHildren he would still be alive. But he did. And he isn't. What do you mean he hesitated to kill an EC marine? I don't remember that? Or were you thinking of Ferrus? + In answer to the thread Captains Skraal and Ehlren of the World Eaters Uber cool, I would love to seee more WE backstory Is there a book containing this in the making?

Hobo Willie Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 What do you mean he hesitated to kill an EC marine? I don't remember that? Or were you thinking of Ferrus? Santar fought one of the Emperor's Children Captains/Commanders at the end of Fulgrim and as the fight swung in Santar's favor, he knocked the EC down and, when he prepared the killing blow, noticed that the EC was enjoying the pain he was inflicting and hesitated out of disgust. The EC then stabbed him in that sacred place that where no man wants to be struck.

Beef Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 this doesnt really count, because he's not been mentioned... yet. i want to find out the back story on Bjorn the Fell-handed... i mean, i want the cinematic, description of the epic brawl that lead to his being interred into the Dreadnought sarcophagus. That was way after the Heresy was over so i doubt that will be in the books. Well the SW still have heroes from the heresy alive today, We have Bjorn and Bullveye the axe man of russ who leads the a warband of the 13th around the EOT. I personally wanted Loken to live as he really does seem like the hero of heros amongst a group of fine individuals such as tarvitz and Garro. He reminded me of Elias from Platoon whilst abadon reminded me of the other sarge played by tom berenger Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157917-horus-heresy-characters-part-2-of-2/#findComment-1945583 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wadey13 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I'd like to see Iacton Qruze at the seige of Terra, and I'd like to see him kick some ass! It'd be so cool for him to "regain" his honour (he never really lost it)!
