For the Glory of Carnage


Death Eaters

Recommended Posts

So i was wanting to know if this idea for a chapter was to far out , i was thinking about doin a sort of lady in the the lake idea but a lot more savage thought she has two sides to her "The Maiden of the Emperor" that they see in thier minds and blesses them and  "The Maiden of Carnage" this is the physical form of the maiden.  (im using the blood angels codex) and have units that are blessed by her  i will be using the death company for them . i have got more writen down but need to see if this is believable theme for a DIY chatper . before i head out on this

 

Thanks for your time

+1 internet for you, Ezekyle. I love Python quotes.

 

I must say, I agree with him. Unless the chapter is renegade or traitor, having a female... spirit/saint/hallucination (?) bless the chapter seems a bit off. Iirc there was a very similar IA idea done by Erasmus of Baal here.

I personally think you have the basis for a really good start for a chapter, although the difficulty is to get her into the position of power over the chapter. You could go the old storyline that the chapter believe her to be this good Saint - leading the chapter to heroic deeds in the name of the Emperor, whilst all along she is a witch of Chaos making the chapter do her deeds. Those of Death Company are the marines who have seen the light - but the chapter not wanting to see the truth cut out the tongues to stop their blasphemy and send them into battle to die - possibly drugged up and turned insane (mind-torture?).

 

Alternatively, they could Blood Angel gene-line, but their memories have become corrupted and they've changed the gender of Sanguinius. I'm not so convinced on that one.

 

My own Wings of Death (plug) are a chapter turned to Chaos by a "watery tart" as it were. I've always enjoyed the idea of empowering women in the 40k universe as there are few women in commanding leads in the storylines. I know there are a good number of them, but they form a small percentage overall.

yes ture though how many renegade chapter are there that still fight for the emperor ? i dont know i will have to have a look .

 

well they rescuse her in the form of what now known as the hand maiden of the emperor , she was capured but the sisters of sin (a cult of daemonettes of slaanesh) they where try to corrupt her to choas . Once they freed her , she changed in to what now is know as the maiden of carnage and help the Death Eaters to decimate the rest of the cult and there stronghold and then flies off in the star (as she has jet black coloured wings) endding not the best but still working on things . Them from that day on she comes to the chapter in visions , telling them they are the vengance of the emperor and all that nice stuff the chapters do .

I think you're going to have to be very careful in saying that she changed when they rescued her - anything that could be construed as 'unusual' (especially when in proximity to Chaos and/or it's worshippers) would probably be filled with bolter shells before you could say Rumple Stiltskin.

 

Also, giving her black wings and having her fly into a star needs to be changed, for multiple reasons. How about having her cut down during the fight?

I see what you mean , like ive said most of this is still in progress , thats makes more since in her being cut down then sort returning . could lose the two forms and just have her as the maiden of carnage and yeah lose the wings , but i was think i would use the sanguinor profile if i used her in a game and he has a jump puck could  just say she jumps and leaps over the battle .
