Grimtooth Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 Hey Forte, mind giving me your thoughts on what it all means to you in laymen terms? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233913-saga-of-bloodmaw/#findComment-2816298 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 hmm...let me see... A thousand years he has defeated your ancestors under his lords banner. The Bloodmaw led across battlefield and space could not hold him back from conquering and uniting. Three times he was nearly killed by his foes but three times he refused to die to continue to fight for Russ. The attack from Magnus happened while Bloodmaw was there and he didn't fall till the heretics were betten. Offered the choice of death or to carry on fighting, Bloodmaw rose as the dreadnought Bjorn the Fellhanded. Was I close?

Guess I need to work on it then...... :lol: TEN TIMES TEN TIMES TEN HIS BLOODIED BOOTS HAVE TREAD UPON YOUR ANCESTORS ASHES BLUNTED AXES, SHATTERED SHIELDS, SPEARS CAST IN DESPERATION THE BATTERED CLOAK OF HIS NAMESAKE HAS TURNED THEM ALL ASIDE This passage is supposed to signify a time period before the Bloodclaws were SW, even before they were born when Bloodmaw was a great Fenrisian tribal warrior/chieftain that was feared by many tribes for his martial prowess. ACROSS THE PLAINS THE BLOODMAW LED THE FROZEN SEAS HELD NOT BACK HIS FURY NO TRIBE COULD STEM THE BLOOD TIDE CONQUERING TO UNITE, UNITING TO SURVIVE This passage gives what was his purpose. Uniting the various tribes of Fenris for survival, not just plain murder-make. Think of a planetary version of the Great Crusade. THRICE HIS PATH TOOK HIM UNTO DEATH AT THE BLADES OF HIS FOES UPON THE GATES HE STOOD AT THE EDGE THRICE HE DENIED THE OFFER OF THE ROUT TO CONTINUE THE PATH OF FENRISIAN LORD His actions were so great that three times he had almost died at which time the wolf priests had witnessed and offered to make him a SW, but he instead chose to continue his path of uniting the Fenrisian tribes of under his Bloodmaw banner. THE BLACK STAR FELL UPON HIS WATCH DEVASTATION WROUGHT BY HIDDEN FOLLOWERS OF THE RED THE BLOODMAW LAY BROKEN BEFORE THE MALEFICARUM AT HIS FALL THE VOW WAS MADE This was more akin to mutated human chaos followers or whatever those things were beneath the earth that were in the Ragnar series using the maleficarum with the aid of something from above to stop his uniting the tribes under his banner at which time he makes a death vow. AT DEATH'S GATE STOOD THE BLOODMAW ONE LAST TIME CHOOSERS JUDGING AND AGAIN THE OFFER WAS MADE A VOW MADE IN DEATH MADE POSSIBLE IN REBIRTH THUS BLOODMAW ROSE TO JARL OF SEPP So we have the wolf priest once again witnessing and make the offer of joining the SW again and Bloodmaw realizes that as a Fenrisian he would never be able to fulfill his vow, but as a SW it would be possible which would lead to him eventually being wolf lord of the Sepp. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233913-saga-of-bloodmaw/#findComment-2816707 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forté Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 This shows that I really need to read more of the BL books. There's no need to word it better at all. Was my knowledge that let me down. Many Ales for you as always. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233913-saga-of-bloodmaw/#findComment-2816799 Share on other sites More sharing options...
