Slips Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Little late to the par-tay but I'm surprised I havent seen Chaingang used as a squad or unit designation yet for being prison-duders.

bluntblade Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 We should make more of the ash thing. Like "I have worn the ashes of warriors from six different Legions."

bluntblade Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Except that, I assume, the Fire Keepers don't ritually run the ashes of their foes into their skin.

MikhalLeNoir Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 No, but they produce a lot of ash burning their enemies. Â The berserkers need a flamer unit.

bluntblade Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Indeed. I'm thinking this will be more a matter of dumping the dead on a big pyre, except for the more important personal kills.

Raktra Posted June 28, 2017 Author Share Posted June 28, 2017 I saw them on Community, and denounced their filthy chicken shins. HOWEVER, I didn't consider the face idea!

bluntblade Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Pondering what we should add to the Berserkers' fluff and two connected things have occurred. Â 1. The Berserkers don't massacre solely for :cuss-es and giggles. It's a product of their worldview, not so much Curze meets Angron as Curze meets FW Ferrus. Â 2. They're necessary evil, as far as the Emperor is concerned. Indeed we should reference the Rangdan Xenocides here (with a redaction-shaped nod to the Wolves) and indicate the VII's ferocity here was important to the victories won. We could also add that they gained some of their mortal followers - Army, Knights, Titans etc - from military bodies shattered in the fighting. Perhaps Alexandros' treatment of Raktra marks somethng of a departure?

bluntblade Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 So Raktra's spotted a "Dominator" rank among the Berserkers, so we need a new name for our Chapter Master/LC equivalents. Maybe we just make up an Uran word?

Raktra Posted July 16, 2017 Author Share Posted July 16, 2017 I'll have a screw around with some syllables, it's now I named most other stuff. Harsh, guttural sounds are best.

bluntblade Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I also suspect Raktra might have a favourite Dark Souls/Bloodborne armour he'd like to reference.

Raktra Posted July 26, 2017 Author Share Posted July 26, 2017 (edited) I called it the Behemoth Cuirass originally, but I had a whole Catholicism thing going on at the time of writing. Not entirely sure if it's still worth keeping. If I don't keep it, how does the Orphan's Cuirass sit? It's A- a Bloodborne reference, though not to armour, and B- something I have an idea for the fluff of. Â Frankly, I just really want to use the word "cuirass".

Raktra Posted July 29, 2017 Author Share Posted July 29, 2017 Blunt did some fluff bits for Raktra's wargear and intro, so I chucked them up on the first page.
