Black Blow Fly Posted March 22, 2020 Author Share Posted March 22, 2020 The old man... WarriorFish 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 What backstory did you write for the "old man"? An honored veteran so old, he'd be a Venerable Dreadnought if he wasn't too stubborn to die? Is his Terminator armor a relic of the Great Crusade- possibly belonging to a Morlock, one of Ferrus Manus' own honor guards, who fell in the Drop Site Massacre- and its patchwork appearance due to the "old man's" desperate attempts to keep this relic operational, i.e., fit for battle? Has the armor's machine spirit influenced his mind, sharing its recordings of its previous wearer's last moments, to the point the "old man" thinks these recordings are his own memories, and he is the long-dead Morlock?

Black Blow Fly Posted March 22, 2020 Author Share Posted March 22, 2020 He’s a survivor of the Ivstann drop site massacre and personally witnessed the death of his Primarch at the hands of Fulgrim. He carries a flamer weapon since his sight isn’t so good anymore. A bit more machine than human. His armor and bionics harken back to the Heresy which might explain him still being alive. wildweasel 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ergonomic Enginseer Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 "Chapter records do not detail his length of service. Such oversights are not uncommon. Indeed, how does one tally the age of a warrior whose bionic body is an amalgam of those who have come before?"

Black Blow Fly Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 Veteran Sergeant Gorginius work-in-progress ... Working on a test schema. wildweasel, Bjorn Firewalker, WarriorFish and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Gorginius is well done. Is he wearing a metal mask to cover the left side of his head? Or did his skin transmute into metal, due to use of archeotech from a... questionable source? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Blow Fly Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 His face is partially bionic in nature. The flesh is weak. ;) Bjorn Firewalker 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Blow Fly Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 Next project - My Chief Librarian... My canon for Skalligrim is he hails from the Heresy era and was trapped in a tesseract for a millennium. Through sheer will and purity of thought he managed to survive and escape at the onset of the destruction of Cadia which released a savage echo through the warp.

Bjorn Firewalker Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Good job on the Librarian. Did the Great Crusade-era Iron Hands actually refer to Librarians as "Mages"? Black Blow Fly 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Blow Fly Posted April 14, 2020 Author Share Posted April 14, 2020 To be honest I found that the canon provided for Iron Hands in the 30k rulebook for them quite lacking. Mage is a reference to his vast knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 So "Mage" is an honorary title, like "the Great"? Fair enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Blow Fly Posted April 14, 2020 Author Share Posted April 14, 2020 Exactly. Hopefully it doesn’t sound like a Chaos honorific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
