grendal1989 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 ... I underlined the harem duties that it explicitly states they performed in that direct quote from the second edition codex, how much clearer do you want me to make it? I think he was just looking for a reference of where in the codex it was. I'll have to take a look in the current codex to see if its one of those things they removed or if I missed it, since I don't have a 2e codex.

Duke Danse Macabre Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Got it in one. Harem suggests a sexualised role which I don't recall from my reading which is why I was hoping for a reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only if you get your knowledge on harems from Hollywood. >> But maybe it's just a Britishism - "exotic skills" generally refers to sexual things.

BitsHammer Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 To be technical, the definition of Harem includes a group of female servants: har·em ˈherəm/ noun noun: harem; plural noun: harems (in former times) the separate part of a Muslim household reserved for wives, concubines, and female servants. Also exotic skills can still have a large range of implications beyond porking an old man. I mean exotic is "different, strange or unusual" and skill is "the ability to do something that comes from training, experience, or practice". As such that could include things like juggling Eviscerators or interpretative dancing, or knife throwing, ect. Yes, you can draw the sex idea from the contexts too, but with how much GW ignores that concept I don't think that was the intent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duke Danse Macabre Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 And that is why I miss the old Slannesh Sculpts. Either way though, they were his lackeys at the time believing him touched by the emperors divinity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vonny Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I really like that image of the sister in front of the not-yet donned armour of saint celestine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Danse Macabre Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 So it seems I'm not the only one with a sisters art work file. ;) Personally i really like the mixed Sister of Battle and Inquisitor Cosplay, mainly for the mace though truth be told, I love cosplay prop weapons.

Mud Duck Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 (edited) I really like that image of the sister in front of the not-yet donned armour of saint celestine. I believe that is Celestine before the armor. The first thing that I thought was the cherubs saying something along the lines of "Thank the Emperor your finally here! You have any idea how boring it is just to hang around here holding this thing up? I swear I nodded off there a couple times, and Bob over there, he's got a bad case of gas. I just don't want to talk about!" Is it me, or does it look like none of the cos players, minus the seraphim, have (proper) power/back packs on.

Your right, the power packs are hard to make and a clunky to wear so allot of people skip them. A shame really, now where else are they going to carry their fire?... ;) Edited February 13, 2015 by Duke Danse Macabre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Power Packs sound like a great place to stash a camelback and some lunch, personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mud Duck Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Clunky I can see but, hard to make?!? The costumes/armor have to be tons more difficult of a build then the packs. I mean, come on, a tube, a square, two spheres, and a trapezoid , seems to me the hard part would be attaching it to the armor itself. Or a billfold, superglue for repairs, duck tape for that creepy fan boi that won't leave you alone, and a small spot for the swag that you picked up earlier in the day.

I'm glad to see it's finally real. Now those are some exotic talents I don't mind being thrown around in the fluff regarding Vandire. Of course at some point we know the juggling Sister probably had to up her game to flaming Eviscerators, but she's got a good start! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
