the alternate era of man

[fox2013]

I will do the armor color of the primarchs, and most will be different from their legions. They'll be based off their heraldry, along with the colors, and feel of the primarch. Also if anyone could or would be willing to do a sketch or drawing of them, i would be grateful. One friend of mine said he would, but i've heard nothing from him and that was years ago. S o if your willing or interested, feel free. I'd do it, but i can't draw to save my life.

Morpheus - looks, armor, heraldry, titles and demeanor.

 

 

Morpheus is about 16 ft tall, his skin is like faded gold, and his eyes are green, and His hair is black, and long. His armor is like a large Mk4 maximus armor, and his armor color is Pure dwarf bronze, and on his breast plate is the face of the dragon. He is a master psyker, and you can basically compare him to magnus in terms of his use of sorcery and psyker power. He is completely devoted to his sons, as he was taught to value family above all. This transferred to his sons along with the flaw in their gene-seed. He is considered the most caring of primarchs, only Atlas being more so. His loves were knowledge, science, and art. He values 3 things over all which would become the tenants of the legion. First was respect, this you had to earn from him and his legion. The next, was "trust" he values that highly and guards it most, as his adoptive father was killed by those he trusted. And finally the most important of his tenants " brotherhood" this tenant is the foundation of his legion, and is inherited in each one who takes up the gene-seed. He is called" the dragon emperor" due to his fondness of them and their use in his styles of art. He is called the "devil of silver" due to his gift for speeches and convincing people to do things his way, this would eventually lead to how he convinced half the titan legions, the imperial guard, and the mechanicum to follow him in rebellion.

Helios - looks, armor, heraldry, titles, and demeanor. 

 

 

He is 14 ft tall, white smooth skin, and blue eyes, his hair was brown and long as well. Think sangunius style with his armor and replace the red jewels with the heraldry of his legion. The armor will be the MK 7 Aquila, with his color being burnished gold with mithril silver detail. He is simply a half copy of sangunius, but has a few things to set him apart. He believes in honor and loyalty, to the point this is beaten into his  legion if words fail. He is very relaxed around his brothers( particularity morpheus) and is known for his love of flying. He has a secret in his blood though, which will later become "helio scourge" among his legion. He earned a few titles in his time of life. He earned "angel of the emperor" due to his habit of talking the emperor into more peaceful solutions while morpheus became his "demon" who urged him to terminate certain creatures. He earned " the emperor's wrath" title due to the first time he felt the fury in his blood. He is very optimistic, and respects all. He does have trouble with choosing to listen to morpheus or the emperor, and his relationship to morpheus has suffered due to a few of his decisions, which is a major point when people talk of the rebellion morpheus started.

HADES - looks, armor, heraldry, titles, and demeanor

 

 

He is 15 ft tall, bald, brown skinned, with brown eyes. His armor is Master crafted, and his color is dark angel green. His demeanor is very.... cold, he despises magic and psykers, to the point he placed block collars on all the psykers of his legion. He is a very serious styled primarch, he often got into fights with morpheus and certain other primarchs over the issue. He is considered the "emperor's shield" due to his constant watch for threats, often arriving months before the emperor to planets to ensure everything goes without a hitch. He is often called "the arch-inquisitor" by certain circles of the imperium due to his constant questioning and hunting of psykers and other "persons", often resorting to torture to get his answers. This has been denounced by morpheus and other primarchs that are warm to the normal humans. He use to get along with the practical primarch Luthor till the rebellion where he turned to slaanesh. Due to a spell uttered by his ex- 2nd captain, Hades's gene-seed negates all psyker potential, leaving his legion the most vulnerable to the destructive force of chaos.

Atlas - looks, armor, heraldry, titles, and demeanor

 

 

Atlas is tall even for a primarch, standing at 20 ft. His eyes are ocean blue, his skin bronze, and a short crop of hair. His armor is a blue MK 8 Errant armor with burnished gold detail. He is known as the "gentle giant" for his love for humanity, often protecting the normal humans, which has earned their respect and that of Morpheus. He's known as the "Goliath" for his great strength, all of which is found in his sons. He is a man who prefers peace, but will bring war if necessary.

[fox2013]

EZIO - the loyalist berserker

 

He is 15 ft tall, golden eyes, light brown hair, a tattoo of a eagle on his right bicep.  His armor is a combination of MK 4 & 8, and colored a solid golden yellow. He is a brash man, and often gets into many brawls with the other primarchs(and has a rivalry with Inuyasha over most kills). He is called "the eagle" for his spear tactics, smashing through the enemies of man with a force that it sounds like the cry of an eagle.

[fox2013]

FENRIS - the alpha wolf

 

He stands 16 ft tall, wild untamed blond hair, yellow eyes, and long canines. His armor is a grey with bronze detail. He's a smith at heart, but also enjoys racing on his sky-bike. He's based off the fenrir from norse, but with a touch of leman russ. He earned titles like "moon-born" and " blood-fang" in many battles of the crusade, but his favorite was "war-brother" which he was gifted by morpheus himself, at a pinnacle point in the crusade, a title he only gave to one other. 

[fox2013]

SOLIDUS - the betrayed son

 

He stands 16 ft tall, grey hair, silver eyes, pale skin( think corax's skin) and wears a grey armor. He rarely speaks, and when he does it's with power, and understanding. He never smiles, he's in simple terms a Konrad curze / el johnson hybrid. His titles include but arent limited to " soldier of sorrow" "the vengeful sword" "the fist of retribution" and finally one given to him by the ones who were outrage at what happened to him  after the trial of venice, where 4 legions under the emperor's orders "purged" him and his legion. Since that day he was known as "the betrayed"/

[fox2013]

KRAVEN - the raven of souls

 

 

He is 17 ft tall, haunting eyes like a raven, and bald with near blackened skin. His armor is marked with the image of a raven, and he even carries a helmet in the shape of one. He's a konrad - corax hybrid. He has many myths surrounding him, one being that he came back from the dead in a murder of ravens. He is often seen with a raven either on his shoulders or his head, and his sons have taken to calling the raven "espiritus" in their language it means spirit seeker.

[fox2013]

BORUS -  the tiger master

 

16 ft tall, skin you'd find in India, and feral just like fenris. He's a Russ - Pertruabo hybrid. Not much to be said about him, just think that with a bit of tribe like styles found in old america. 

[fox2013]

INUYASHA - HARBINGER OF SPARTA

 

He's 16 ft of unbridled rage, skin red as fire, and eyes orange with fury. He's a angron - Russ hybrid. He prefers frontal assaults. and often starts carving his way into an enemy fortress, his "bestial" nature has caused much concern and fear among the imperial army, and only the words of morpheus and helios, have saved Inu and his sons from being "censored" by the emperor. Inu respects morpheus (and ezio but will never admit that) highly, often seeking his council on matters. On the topic of psykers, he doesn't like them but he tolerates them enough to have them trained. He has slowly but surely over the centuries switched his loyalty from the emperor to morpheus, due to their close kinship, and natures. This would be later explain why he was the first to join morpheus in rebellion.

[fox2013]

Drakon - the silent specter

 

He's 16 ft tall, but thats all thats known about him, he constantly wears his armor and helmet, which is a solid dark angel green. He is mysterious and his motives unknown to any but himself, it's even rumored that drakon isn't even his real name, but a name given to him by the planet he was found on.

[fox2013]

NEPTUNE - the moon- demon

 

He's real piece of work, 14ft tall, eyes of a glowing silver, skin pale as the moon, and hair black as midnight. He loots the enemy and even his own allies, dead or alive with no remorse. He sweeps through the enemy with great agility, which he puts to great use and specialty in underwater combat. He also wields fear like a cleaver, and some say he even feeds on it. He does care for his sons in his own way, like a scolding but proud father. He taught them the ways of pirates  like how he was taught. This would come to bite many imperial ships (mostly the white falcons) in the cuss.

[fox2013]

FELIX - the watchful falcon

 

He's the complete opposite of Neptune, in looks, and in demeanor. He despises how neptune kidnaps children from their homes and indoctrinates them into his legion. He's a free spirit, ever watchful, rumors say he see a target farther then the imperium's best guns. He hates Neptune, and often shows him how he feels about his "recruiting" by stealing his recruits. 

[fox2013]

TEMPLAS - the lord preacher

 

HE's basically a logar clone, simple.

[fox2013]

PRIMUS 

 

He was 14 ft tall, sporting green hair, and blue eyes, his skin a yellowish tan. His armor color is alpha legion green, his demeanor use to be pacifistic, till later in  his life when fenris forced his hand. A few years down the road, their dislike turned to animosity, they cant stay in the same room together without coming to blows. In one campaign they were ambushing an ork waagh, when apparently primus said or did something to offend fenris, and he left him and his sons alone outnumbered against the orks. He managed to defeat them but suffered horrific losses, so when the emperor came to ask how it went, and fenris walked in, primus leaped over the table and kept punching fenris till he passed out.

[fox2013]

ZIVION

 

A similar model to primus, but just doesn't socialize at all, he just keeps to himself like solidus and drakon did. He choose to fight based on how they enemy worked, and what he had on hand.

[fox2013]

SHADIUS 

 

16 ft tall, looks like if fulgrim and sanguinus got together and had a baby pretty much. He loves art and music, but is very vain. Unfortunately this spread to his legion, who all took on his looks (yes like the sons of horus did) he fought alongside many of his brother legions, and made few friends among them. His style is assault/ devastation, he has the record for most exterminatus usage. He gives a planet one chance to join the imperium, they refuse and he burns them. He often has the other legions due the heavy lifting, but his charms and looks often win him the planets where other primarchs would have to bloody them. This tactic would eventually propel him into the title of war-master, elevating him above his brothers, and while most stayed silent, morpheus argued against this, even going all the way back to terra. It would be 10 years later, that he would go there again at the head of a rebellion.  

[fox2013]

LUTHER

 

He stands an imposing 17 ft tall, brown hair in a ponytail, and piercing storm grey eyes. His armor a plain grey made of different parts of other suits. He use to care only for practicality, and despised ornate armor or weapons. He saw them as pointless and a large target painted on you. That is till he met shadius, who showed him that the two he pondered could in fact coexist. The two became fast friends, and were always in each other's company. Some say that when shadius fell to chaos, luther just leapt in with him,( which is untrue as luthor was corrupted long before then). HE instilled his views deep into his legion, and they followed him like a well oiled machine, all the way to the gates of slaanesh.

[fox2013]

ASURA

 

He's basically a  18 ft tall samurai, he has a problem with his love of bloodshed, and trophy taking but it was manageable. He was one of the first primarch morpheus found, and learned under him. His sons were ingrained with his personality and styles, eventually also taking after some of his traits. He came to despise excanton for his "holier than thou" attitude, trying to be the "perfect man" where asura embraces all his flaws. 

[fox2013]

ADONIS

 

A 16 ft tall, "bumpy" rust haired, pale brown eyed native american. He specializes in hostile environments from deserts to frozen wastelands, and even works in the forests. His legion is known for being iron willed, and can go an outrageous amount of time(even for space marines) without food or water. They are like the white scars in their love of motor bikes, and hunting. He often carries a large tomahawk when not using the weapon he got from morpheus, and often can wait for centuries for his prey.

[fox2013]

EXCANTON

 

He's a 15 ft tall golden man, with jade green eyes, and blonde hair. His armor is a dirty white, and made from MK 7 and 8 armors. He is a man who believes that humanity can rise above wants and desires, and reach their full potential. This belief has gained him the ire of asura and inuyasha, the former was already explained, and the later cause he believes that the flaws are important aspects of humanity. He subjected his sons to rigorous training and disciplines, before even letting them become astartes, this caused many to drop out but the ones who didn't became the very thing he envisioned. Their numbers may be small, but their quality is greater.

[fox2013]

ZEUS

 

He is a "party kinda guy" his eyes a sparky blue, and his hair blues with yellow streaks. He stands 15 ft tall, and his armor is a faded yellow. He prefers lightening strikes, get in, bust them up, get out. His legion gained his ability to harness lightening through the rites, at first he only recruited from his home-world for they were naturally suited to it, and easier. This would come to an end during the rebellion when his planet was glassed by the traitor legions, and so he had to find a way to keep his numbers, eventually adding a new rite to the legion, which would help the new initiates accept the gene-seed.

[fox2013]

PYROS

 

A 14 ft tall "fire brand"of a primarch(think dorn mixed with khan, and tempered by sangunius). His armor is blood red, with an orange pattern, consisting of MK 7 and 6 armor parts. He is also known as the "flame of humanity" for his ability to burst into flames without being burned, this trait passed onto his sons, though it has it's own problems. He detests sorcery of certain nature, and views necromancy as unholy. This has drawn him into conflict with charon for centuries before coming to a head in the rebellion.

i'm going to next do some quotes by and about them. then i'll do some pre-rebellion campaigns.
