YAY! Bump. I think I'll lurk here for a while

Will we get ANYTHING we want?

bump for potential!

A bolter would be fine.

>>12300844

Choose with caution. Think about what you must do. A lot of firepower may not be the best way to go.

HEAVY POWER PISTOL CHAIN BOLTER

I would really enjoy a flamer and bolt pistol if possible

>You all have 10 minutes to get your gear together

Better hurry, then.

>Take only what you need from the armory.

I'm thinking we might "need" a lot more than the others.

>Stealth is a tactic you may wish to employ here.
>This planet is very remote and the respect you are accustomed to receiving from the local population will not be given here.

What do we know about the planet?

>Therefore, we are attempting to avoid needless casualties. It makes the locals less inclined to cooperate.

Perhaps we should be careful when handling area-effect weapons.

>The Canoness nodded and the doors to the armory open.

Which weapons are we most skilled in handling?

>>12300855
I suppose this is a "yes".
My suggestion is: grab a Rosarius, a Power sword, Bolt pistol, and a meltagun.

First thing's first: Are we going alone or as a part of the squad? If we're going alone, we'll need weapons of completely different types so we could cover many different types of enemies. If we are a part of a squad, we should take guns which will complement their loadout.

Bolter, Power Sword and Rosarius. Tactical sister, ready for battle.

>>12300869
Looks like a good idea to me.

>>12300799
Melta, cause they are actually really sneaky

>>12300888
Now that I think about it, could I bring a knife along with the power sword? Or is the sword stealthy enough? Though I dunno how much sneakin' about could be done in full armor...

>>12300868
10 minutes game timne

The planet is in the northeast area of the galaxy (assuming the eye of terror is in the east and the tyranids are coming from the south and west) It is mainly grassy plains with some desert areas and small forests. The planet is mainly agricultural but is also known for its mining.

You were trained in both close combat and firearms but heavy weapons and combi weapons take special training which you did not recieve

>>12300926
Power Sword, Inferno Pistol, Bolter.
Alternatively Bolt Pistol and Melta.

>>12300878

You and the other Novices all have separate missions on the surface.

>>12300942
>>12300888
>>12300869

You grab a power sword from the rack. It crackles and glows with energy when you pull it out of its sheath. quiet and powerful though not as good at crowd control as a chainsword.

You a bolter. The range is good and it packs quite a punch. It burns through ammunition quite quickly though. The familiar feeling of the gun makes you smile.

You approach the melta guns and grab an Inferno Pistol. It has almost no range but it can shear through armor like paper.

You grab yourself a Rosarius. A true life saver. Hopefully it doesn't malfunction and blind you.

You approach the extra ammunition. You have enough space to carry 6 extra packs of bolter ammo or 3 packs of inferno pistol ammo.

>>12301030
Extra bolter ammo durrrrrr


>eaterna suggested
Thank you, captcha, your suggestion is noted

>>12301030
The simple mechanism, the sturdy frame, the fist-sized rounds that seem to whisper promised of sweet cleansing and brutal punishment to the heretics, everything in this engine of warfare called a Bolter is nothing short of the Emperor's Vengeance made manifest. Oh yes, this'll do nicely.
Also, I pack two frag grenades, just in case.

>Novice with an inferno pistol, power sword and rosarius

>>12301030
Bolter ammo! When we don't know what to expect, we should use an all round weapon!

>>12301067
Shut up.

>>12301104
>A Rosarius is an amulet worn by officials of the Ecclesiarchy for both protection and as sign of office
>sign of office

>>12301054
>>12301052

You take the bolter ammo, admiring the weapon in your hand. A shiver runs down your spine, tingling in your fingers and toes as if there emperor had blessed you right then and there.

You grab the krak grenades, heart aflame as you line up with your fellow sisters.

"You will each be dropped in a different city on the planet. Your objective is, once again, to locate the chaos cult. Once there, use the radio in the drop pod to contact us and we will send down reinforcements.

>>12300921

"Ave Imperator!" You and your sisters shout, kneeling momentarily. You glance one last time at the armory, grabbing an ornate knife with a fleur de lys handle before boarding your drop pod.

>>12301111
You want our Sister dead already?
Also, bolter ammo and grenades: 2 frag, 1 smoke, 1 flashbang.

>>12301128
Damn.

>>12301128
Good. Describe our surroundings.

>>12301161

The drop pod was made for one person. It was very basic with a simple vitals monitoring system, oxygen mask (and tank), a large flask of water, and a radio that transmitted from the signaler on the top of the pod. There was also a copy of the Codex Sororitas and many purity seals adorning the walls. The Litany of Fury was written on the inside of the door.

I do love me some sisters of battle

>>12301224
Good. Let us sit firmly, and mentally prepare for landing. The Canoness didn't say anything about a specific briefing, so let's just consider on the coming task.

>>12301224
My eyes gaze across the seals and through the words of the Litany, imprinted by fire and zeal in my mind yet always good to read, to see printed in a physical way. A testament to the Emperor's Will given form. I hum its words while holding the Bolter high. After its done, I remember my name for an instant, one single moment of individuality before battle, of selfishness before sacrifice. "Vanessa", I remember. And then I'm back.
"Ready for deployment. Emperor protects."

>>12301287
>>12301265

You board the drop pod quickly, buckling yourself in. You hear the sounds of the other pods dropping around you, your heart pounding in your ears.

Your radio crackles to life. "Sister." It was the Canoness. "I saw you take the Rosarius. A wise choice. It may be of use getting the locals to cooperate. be careful not to flash it around too much. You may attract unwanted attention."

You were about to reply when a loud click resonated through your pod and suddenly, you were falling.

You hold tight the entire fall, a jarring impact pulling you from the comfort of your prayer. You've landed on the planet's surface.

>>12301287
Do not allow your zeal to cloud your judgment. We are not going into battle- we are going to find a chaos cult with minimum collateral damage and we wll do it. Be smart. Be calm. The Emperor protects.

>>12301321
Once the hatch opens, do not walk out immediately. Rather than that, look out carefully.

>>12301322
"Thanks for the advice, Sister. Deploying now. Emperor guide us."

>>12301321
The hatch opens and I come out, Bolter at the ready, and take a look around.

>>12301348

The hatch hisses open and you survey the area beyond, bolter clutched tight.

There is only an open field of waist-high grass. The faint smell of cooking food makes itself known, mingling with the smell of burnt metal from your pod.

>>12301321
Attract attention? Are Battle Sister configured power armour, bolters, inferno cannons and the rest of our kit not a dead give away then?

>>12301321
Let us check our gear, look around and slowly walk out with our bolter ready.

>>12301370
Is the radio and water detachable and easy to carry along with the rest of our kit?

>>12301370
Let us follow zhee smell. Whee want informeeezhon if whee want to find the cult of kayyy-os!

>>12301379

Your gear is all as it should be. You slowly stand, your standard battle sisters cloak falling forward, partially concealing your arms and armor.

Once outside you look around. There is no one in sight, though there is a town in the distance. It appears as if they are participating in some sort of festival, though something seemed... off. You couldn't quite put your finger on it.

Something catches your eye. A small gleam of light from the trees nearby? You couldn't be sure.

>>12301390

The water is detachable

>>12301436

Duck out of view, hide and wait for a moment. If no movement is towards our general location stay low and investigate.

I think we should make an effort to try and hide the drop pod later if possible.

>>12301436
Take a look at the trees, don't depart to far from the drop pod, unless there's other potential cover. Also, draw the boltgun(but don't point it at anything yet).

>>12301445

Awesome, than we can grab it later if it's convinient. Also do we have a tactical sling for our bolter so we can just drop it and draw another weapon without worrying about scratching the paint?

>>12301456
>>12301450

You duck behind the pod, glancing around it, boltgun at the ready. You waited for several minutes. Whatever it was, it was gone now... It might have left something behind... or maybe the people in the town could give you information...

>>12301366
I walk outside the pod, confirm that there are no inmediate threats, put down my weapon and close my cloak around me to hide my true nature in a pitiful but needed gesture of subterfuge. I will not fail. Now, what am I looking at?

>>12301462

You have a sling.

>>12301473
Walk towards the town, perhaps taking a glance or two at where the light was. As for the manner of walking, carefully, but not devoid of pride and self-confidence.

>>12301473
Get out and try to camouflage the drop pod a tad. Take the water and then move out. Investigate light source area first and then move to somewhere where we can over look the town and get a better view of things.

investigate the forest. that glint could be something more sinister

>>12300907
don't you know of those squat snipers with melta rifles? Those were awesome!

>>12301607
>>12301509

You throw a camo net over the drop pod and set out cautiously through the high grass toward the forest. You stay low as you approach the trees. You see the glint again. Its deeper in the forest now, but you're closer to it than you were before. Whatever it is, its highly reflective. Like a mirror or polished metal or glass.

>>12301677
So it's moving then? I say follow for it a moment more and see if its still moving. If it is back off and head back towards the direction of the town. The last thing we need right now is a wild goose chase or walk into a trap. Keep an eye out for it later thought.

>>12301703
How about tracking it, use the cammo netting to trap it and investigate what it is? Or set up an ambush with the frag grenades and a wire...

>>12301703
This.
Track it for about 20 meters, but if it's still beyond reach, break off and continue with the task at hand.

>>12301734
The thing is that setting off any explosives and the like will make this less of a stealth mission. If we're tracking something that's something trivial, like a hunting party, we;ll be chasing them around forever. If whatever it is important I'm sure it'll show up at the town later, which I'm assuming is the closest settlement, or we'll deal with it after we call in for reinforcements or something.

>>12301766
Okay. Let me think like a Sororita would... We had a flame based weapon, yes? Forrest fire. Totaly natural and will cover our aproach.

>>12301750
>>12301703

You follow it through the forest, your training keeping your armor silent as you move. It doesn't seem to move further, the glint occasionally meeting your eyes.

As you get closer you see it is a large mirrored square. Like a primitive method for signaling others. Its owner is nowhere in sight.

>>12301804
Err contrarty to popular belief forest fires don't suddenly spring out of nowhere. You'll attract like the entire town and possibly lead to the discovery with out drop pod. I would strongly advise against this.

>>12301804
If you wanted to bluff it, you could even call yourself a prophet of the God-Emperor, use the forest fire as a sign of his might and demand that any heretics and traitors be brought upon you, lest the same fate befall any and all inhabitants of this planet. But that might be too much for a novice Sister, and it's probably too soon to be revealing yourself.
Also, I feel kinda lonely.

>>12301811
Inspect imediate environs. Take safety pall off Bolter.

>>12301811
Examine it, obviously. Check the surroundings as well.

>>12301811
Shit shit shit shit, circle the perimeter and be ready to draw the powersword and get shit done. If no one's in sight check the ground near the mirror for traps. This may be a hunting trap of sorts and not an ambush hopefully.

>>12301811
Any sign of recent activity? Damaged trees, grass? Any other signs of ocupation? Water source?

I inspect the surroundings, bolter at the ready, Any sounds?

>>12301848

You click the safety off on your bolter, glancing around, weapon ready. There is not a living thing in sight. The birds aren't even chirping. The back of your neck prickles as you turn and look about, dread beginning to form in the pit of your stomach.

Something was off...

>>12301847
Well I mean if it turns out the entire village is full of heretics we'd be fucked. Also the cannoness would probably drop a dictionary on our head...from orbit.

>>12301890
Back off now, we're supposed to be scouting not trying to wipe out the entire cult on our own. Retreat the way we came and cover our back.

>>12301891
Right, stick to plan A.

>>12301890
I turn around and check all around the clearing (which i assume it is). If no immediate threats, I take a closer look at the mirror.

>>12301889

The soft ground is covered with many footprints. Signs of a struggle. The grass around them though has sprung back up. The struggle must have happened several hours ago.

>>12301925
Well nothing we can do then.

>>12301925
I make a mental note and follow the trail of footsteps. Where do they go? The Village? Any blood spatter? Signs of bodies being dragged? Deeply imprinted footprints? (Due to heavier people)

>>12301890
DUCK AND COVER!

>>12301970
>>12301963
>>12301951
>>12301925
>>12301919
>>12301909
>>12301906
>>12301891
Seems I'm paranoid

>>12301963

A short distance off there is a small patch of dried blood on the bark of a tree. There are several burn marks on the trees from las weaponry. You find a discarded charge pack nearby. No signs of bolter or close combat weapon usage. There are signs of a body being dragged away.

>>12301997
Okay, I follow the tracks, and loosen my powersword in the sheath. Also, tape an extra clip to the side my current one.

>>12302007

Your power sword makes a soft clink as you loosen it. Immediately the air becomes much heavier. You feel as if a large, heavy cloth had been dropped over your mind, dulling your senses...

>>12302034
Okay... back away slowly, check if the feeling goes away. If it doesn't, I'll back to the landing site. If it does, I'll try forward again, see if it goes. If neither makes it go away, I fasten my sword again.

Also, make sure I'm not shaking or anything.

>>12302034
>dulling your senses...

FUCKING RUN.

It's some kind of thingie.

RUN.

>>12302034
Look at the mirror.

>>12302077

You start to back away, the feeling intensifying, your limbs becoming heavier and heavier.

"So predictable" From behind a tree walks a man. He is slightly taller than you are, and the visible implants on his head mark him as a psyker. Around his neck dangles the eight pointed star of chaos.

He smiles at you, the mental pressure increasing as he slowly approaches.

no offense OP

I was hoping you would make a quest where 4channers must go to Games Workshop and tell them to make a Sisters codex OR ELSE!

>>12302122

You can do that too. :P

Actually i have connections. The DE codex is coming out and the Grey Knights codex is being worked on as well as the new Sisters codex. Can't wait to see it

>>12302110
fire until the clip runs out. Quick reload (because i taped the other clip to it). Proceed to plan B. Set forest on fire. Keep supresive fire on the guy if he lives.

>>12302110
Pray. Just clear your mind and pray to the God-Emperor. Also, ready the hellpistol in off-hand.

>>12302142
Fuck that shit, use the Rosarius and STAB HIM.

"The Emperor guides my blade, heretic!"

>>12302148
Obviously I meant the inferno pistol.

>>12302152
You want to stab him... with the Rosarius? Son... you are confused. The Rosarius is a shield generator.

>>12302110

OH FUCK. A PSYKER. WHAT THE FUCK DO WE DO NOW?

Can't we go help her or something? I dunno, I haven't moved from my landing position yet.

>>12302163
I thought there was just one of us? That's usualy the case in these things, otherwise it gets too confusing.

>>12302161
No, they were two separate ideas.

>Use the Roasius [end]
>and stab him [end]

I assumed you'd understand that I meant to stab him with our power sword-- the only stabby thing we have aside from the babby knife.

>>12302177
I thought we were a group that got sent to different parts of the same planet. See
>>12300953

>>12302204
allright then. Well, I still like emptying the bolter on him, then meltapistol then forest fire, then retreat better.

>>12302220
THE EMPEROR DOES NOT REWARD COWARDICE, SOLDIER.

USE YOUR POWER SWORD, STRIKE WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT!

>>12302214
That... tha'd get fucking confusing. And weren't the drop pods one person? I think we are meant to die one by one and the others are just back ups. Or, if we manage well enough, reinforcments. But right now they are far, far away. So bolter shells it is.

>>12302142
You repeat the litany of faith to yourself over and over. It barely keeps you conscious as you steady yourself to face the psyker.

You raise your bolter and manage to get off about half a clip, the nose of the gun drooping as strength leaves your limbs.

The bolts that you did fire were stopped mid flight, hovering in front of him momentarily before falling to the ground.

"Quite a strong will you have... Heh... Hehehehe..." He stretched his hand out toward you, the mark of Tzeentch tattooed onto his palm. "Master knows the outcome of your endeavor, little Sororitas. He knows you will fail and die bleeding in the mud and chaos will consume this world. Of course, I cannot allow something so predictable to happen..."

He presses his palm against your forhead you scream as a hot lance of pain drives through your skull and down your body, the warp dancing at the edges of your mind. You fall, hearing voices? gunfire? Your eyes close as you lose consciousness.

>>12302238
Ok, I'll stay back and secure a perimeter around my drop pod. And probably cook some sausages while playing a harmonica or something.

>>12302227
I'm having trouble standing. Fuck that. 30 explosive shells to the face will do the heretic some good. Then the fire will take care of the rest of 'em. What will I acomplish by drawing my sword and falling flat on my face?

>>12302214

You were sent to different parts of the same planet to find the cult so that you could radio in for the main force to come and purge it.

>>12302214
I think the idea is that the other novices are NPCs, of a sort.

>>12302247
Faith and duty. Faith and duty. Faith and duty!!! We can take pain, and our faith shall remain unbroken no matter what!

>>12302247
I try transmiting a message "vile heretics have shot us down. We must protect the titan's crew..."

>>12302247

You awaken to find yourself in a cave. More specifically, a mine. Your sword, guns, and cloak had been taken and you can hear hushed voices around you. Someone has draped a grubby blanket over you while you slept. You still had your knife.

Your head hurts... A lot...

>>12302299
Get up and figure out what those voices are palm our knife for a quick draw just in case.

>>12302299
How about the power armor? Or are we naked?
I look around. Anyone? Take blanket with me. Never know when you'll need it.

>>12302299
We should attempt to get ourselves in order and look around- without moving. We pretend that we sleep.

>>12302307

You take one step and your foot bumps something. Your weapons had been removed and laid out next to you, your cloak folded neatly on a rock nearby. The voices stop as the sound resonates through the chamber, echoing footfalls slowly approaching you. One set seems heavier than the other, the lighter set moving irregularly like its owner was limping.

>>12302336
We grab our bolter, a grenade and find cover!

>>12302336
Calmly dress. Suit up weaponry and check if they are loaded. If they took all this trouble, they wont charge us now, will they? Inspect the imediate suroundings. Switch on light on the power armor (standard feature, I hope)

Look if we are still ourselve. He could have switched our body or something

>>12302363

You fumble around with your bolter, grabbing a grenade as you stumble back, your power armor clattering loudly. You barely manage to get behind a large rock as two scruffy looking men walk in. One is carrying a lasgun and wearing metal tipped boots. The other is much older, one of his eyes missing, several wires sticking out from the empty socket as if he had had an ocular implant at some point.

"Sister?" He holds up his hands. "It's okay, you're safe here... We mean you no harm."

His fear resonates in your mind. You could tell he was telling the truth with a clarity and perception you never had before. Though it may just be the headache talking...

>>12302336
After picking up the weapons and checking them, and switching on the light on the armor. I calmy face the direction the footsteps are coming from, kneel, and wait for visual.

>>12302435
Blast them! It is Tzeentch we deal with! We must not be deceived! Fire!

>>12302435
We have the knife, right? Body slam the big one to the ground, hold up the grenade in clear sight, finger in the pin, and put the knife on the big guys throat.

"who are you, and where am I?"

>>12302472
Belay that.
Ask them calm questions, but warn them to keep distance.

Kill myself for I am a psyker now ;_; (never though I'd do that in a quest thread)

>>12302499
also, inquire why they are armed.

>>12302518
Shoot first, ask questions later. Or incapacitate them.

>>12302538
We are here to investigate, not purge first, otherwise we wouldn't have been sent as part of a tiny taskforce.
Ask them what is going on.

>>12302552
I prefer my "Slam them on the ground and intimidate with a grenade, then askas questions" aproach. Yours is not apropriately violent enough for a sister. Or 40k

>>12302499

The man gives a strange cry as he hits the ground, his eyes huge as he watches the grenade, your armor half crushing him. He makes a pitiful sound, shaking his head slowly to either side. You can see that his tongue has been cut out.

"Please Sister! Calm yourself. His name is Boris. I am Argan. We rescued you from that sorcerer. Shot him good, Boris did. He teleported off before he could get any more shots off."

He swallowed hard, hands trembling. "Please Sister we need your help..."

His sincerity was like a beacon in your mind and fear radiated off of Boris like heat off of concrete.

Your knife was glowing a faint purple.

>>12302582
Ask them for details. Then we'll decide if they're heretic or not.

>>12302582
I drop the knife, put the grenade on my belt and pick up my bolter, keeping it at chest hight. With a careful glance to the knife and the downed man, I turn to Argan

"Explain. And make it good, for I have already encountered servants of the dark gods, and if you deceive me by the Emperor I will turn you into a flagelant myself"

>>12302606
Do this, but keep the knife.

>>12302641
the knife has turned purple! that is not, generaly, a good sign. Besides, the two guys are armed already, and we have a bolter. We'll pick it up later.

>>12302582
We should stay sharp. We must get out of the cave and send a transmission to our superiors.

>>12302686
first answers, then action. I'm not running around with two armed strangers without some verification.

>>12302710
Correct. So let us ask them for details of our situation. We must keep our mind cool and sharp.

>>12302737
As such, back to:
>>12302606

>>12302746
We shouldn't drop our blade, but in general yes. I agree. Where is the game master?

>>12302641
>>12302606

They seem to visibly relax as you sheathe your knife and put the grenade away.

"Thank you SIster... It's been hard on all of us. This planet experienced a small warp storm three moons ago. The storm was barely enough to register as a blip on our monitors, you see, so we didn't ask for help. We performed many purifications on any blighted ground and killed any psykers exhibiting symptoms of warp taint. Then all at once, everyone went mad. There were riots! Orgies in the street! Disease spread! Witchcraft everywhere! My guardsmen and I didn't know what to do!"

He paused for a moment, regaining his composure. "There... There is no warp breach... No daemons being summoned. I don't understand what's going on..."

>>12302782

bathroom break >.>

>>12302798
This is getting too big for us. We are a scout, and not a problem solver. We should ask for psyker concentration in the area and send a report about chaos forces- that they're the cult of Tzeentch and that it mght be wise to consider exterminatus to prevent our entire troop for being used in chaos schemes.

>>12302798
"Okay... I encountered a sorcerer in the woods... hm... who are you? What is your rank? Any remaining Imperial forces besides you? Has Chaos taken over the town?"

I switch on My comm "Recon 1 to cannones, recon one to cannones. I have encountered remaining imperial forces, Chaos has a strong presence here. I have already been assaulted by a sorcerer. Request back up. Request permission to investigate the immediate area of the town?"

>>12302864
We DON'T know if those are Imperial forces. Stay sharp!

>>12302829
JUST AS PLANNED!

>>12302884
That's why I called for backup and am inquiring on the guy's position in the guard. Besides, they are armed with lasguns. We have power armor, rosetta, power sword and bolter. So yeah... we'll be safe for now.

>>12302864

Your personal com is not strong enough to broadcast off-planet. The radio in the drop pod is what you need.

"I am General Pryce. General Argan Pryce. There are only a handful of soldiers left Sister and several villagers who escaped the taint but...

There was a storm in his head. He was torn between something.

He seems to make a decision, wringing his hands together. "Sister, there is... There is something you need to see..."

Boris slowly climbed to his feet. He could not meet your gaze.

>>12302927
Follow him, but stay sharp. Watch for any danger with our finger on the trigger!

>>12302798
"Where did the riots start? How many others are under your command?"

After this, we should return to our drop pod and report the sorcerer and this information and then kill ourselves as we have been tainted.

For The Emperor.

>>12302927
"I'll follow you. General... Yet I warn you, you have not earned my full trust yet. And make it quick, I need to report to my superiors and there was something in the woods I wanted to investigate."

I pre-record a comm message to make the transmition quicker, carefully pick up and examine the knife, then sheath it, and follow the guardsmen.

>>12302969

You gather your things and pull your cloak back on. He leads you through the mine. Crude doors had been installed to section off the different areas. As you moved, you saw villagers, guardsmen, and entire families huddled against the walls. The rooms reeked of death and despair, their sorrow filling your mind, tears stinging the corners of your eyes.

He brings you to a door, hesitating. "Sister... you best brace yourself..." His hopelessness swirled around you like a heavy cloud.

>>12303026
I ready myself. I put my bolter away and enter with my mind clear. I initiate a prayer to the Emperor.

>>12303026
Our faith is strong. His faith s weak. Remind him of what happens to those that lose faith in the divine Emperor.

Suddenly people everywhere is.

There is many shooting ongoing and you stand your feet and fire at them.

you shout vanessa

>>12303084
I am ready to serve! Say the word!

>>12303026
Obviously he has been tainted by the enemies of mankind, as have we and no doubt everyone else here.

We must purge them all, unconditionally. Leave not one alive, cleanse this place of all abominations.

suddenly vanessa is here

hi vannessa you say

vanessa says hi

you say stfu vanessa no time people everywhere is shooting there

vanessa stfus and joins the battle but asks what weapon we should use

you tell vanessa

Or our taint has spread beyoung being a psyker and we are mutilated and he's taking us to a mirror to show us this.

>>12303119
Let's have a look first, aye? Meltagun at the ready...

>>12303141
The only thing left to do is wait.

>>12303141
you say okay vanessa thats good idea but i dont think mirroors will hurt them

vanessa concurs her head gently and throw away miroorr for pistul insted you laugh with vanessa and it was nic

...BUT YOU HD WOK TO DO and that work is slying hertics so your choic of action is OPEn DOOR and strat fring

>>12303177
>>12303159
OK, guys, I'm just going to say that if we find anything heretical the ONLY response any good Sororitas will have can be summed up as: CLEANSE. BURN. KILL.

>>12303052

Not even the emperor himself could have prepared you for what awaited. The pungent scent of decay and burnt flesh was the first thing that hit you. Stepping into the room, a scene of horror greeted you.

Your fellow sisters, the closest thing you ever had to a family, lay about the room, several covered in white clothes stained red with blood. The rest were torn apart, their blessed armor shattered and broken.

One sister's face was frozen in fear and agony, her entrails removed from her body and used to strangle her. Another's skull had been smashed in, lacerations covering her body, exposing her muscle and sinew. Another had been crucified, with shards of bone taken from one of her fellow sisters, marks of chaos carved into her body.

A weak sound snapped you out of your horror. In the corner was a sister that was still alive. She was missing her left arm and leg and begging for water. Looking at the puddle of blood beneath her, she wouldn't last long.

>>12303218
I Take up my bolter and, keeping an eye on the door, I aproach the sister and give her some water. "Sister, what happened? Were it the guardsmen? Tell me. Then I can give you the Emperor's benediction"

I croach beside her, Bolter still fixed on the door.

>>12303204

you think hey there miht be hertics in there

venssa says okay i will look through the door and she does and vennessa says she sees lots of heretics and ponders as to when your choice of action is what

venassa get her gun to the ready and you get you;re >>12303159 meltagun and you go into the heretics house

POWPOWPOW vennssa shouts and you fire your meltagun too venessa then helps you to >>12303204
destroy the hertics and their hous because they must be PURGED IN THE NAM OF THE MPROER but you didnt do that yet so

venessa asks what were doing now

Okay guys, what does venessa do?

>>12303218 PLEAS REFRE COURSE OF ACTION TO
>>12303249

>>12303218
Ask the sister how did this happen, and then let her die as a martyr.

>>12303249
>>12303246
WHO ARE THESE MENTALLY RETARDED PEOPLE WITH THEIR TERRIBLE SPELLING?!

>>12303218
God damn...alright inquire about the drop pod right now. We need to prioritize getting there immediately.

>>12303290
I have absolutely no idea. Plus I'm a little annoyed. Ah well, I guess my char is either dead or still playing the harmonica.

>>12303290
spell nazi

>>12303290
Do not feed the Trolls. They'll die of hunger eventualy, just ignore them.

>>12303290
we call them "trolls"

I've heard this thread is experiencing autism, I'm here to help.

>>12303302
My next character is going to be a wizard who talks with a thick Austrian accent.

>>12303301
What character? We countrol a single individual

>>12303279
no you are stpid that is really mean
>>12303218
okay so you an venesa kill al the monsters and all the other dead sisters so you see the hurt sitser and you pick her up and bandage her

venessa says this is my grandma

grandma says hi how arey you

you say hi grandmda how are you doing thouh

grandma says not good cause im dying but i can tell what happened

grandam tells that venssa was right and many heeretics kills all the sisters except her because they onl wantde her left arm and thet the hertics when to the main town for a death party of blood for their chaos god

Vennesa says okay this is NOT GOOD and she prepares her guns and you prepare yur >>12303159 meltagun for battle

>>12303328
I know, that was my mistake. I didn't quite get the rules right. I thought we were all different characters landing in different places of the same planet. I'll try to do better next time.

>>12303342

Oh, well no big deal then. Yeah, all quest threads involve a communal effort to control a single individual. So I think getting back to the drop pod would be the best thing for us to do? After saying a small prayer for our sisters I mean.

>>12303342
Well, in game terms the character would be quite tainted by now and we'd be a bunch of daemons.

>>12303279
>>12303246

She struggles to look at you as you approach her, drinking greedily as you put the flask to her lips, her head falling back as she gasps for breath.

"It hurts Sister..." The left half of her face was shattered. "It hurts so much... Emperor..."

She grits her teeth, licking her cracked lips. "The villagers... They've all been tainted by chaos. I... They overwhelmed me. These people came to my aid." She closed her eyes tightly, taking a shuddering breath. "Please sister... I can't..."

>>12303328
Look man... Ignore the trolls and wait for the DM to post something. although this is getting rather spamtastic... Anyway, the less we react to it, the less motivation they'll have. 'Kay?

>>12303382
Utter a small prayer and then kill her out of her mercy. Better by the hand of a sister than by chaos right? Do the same for any sisters left that can't be saved.

If anything these are the breed of trolls willing to bother with the capcha. Most of the time they follow a tread to it's death. Just saying...

fuck you gys im not even angry or am trolling you

you say>>12303360 is group effort but this isnt even fair

you want me too stop wrriiting them fine ill leave but fuck yuo fcuk everybody

>>12303382
"It weren't the guardsmen? Good. Sister... Be grateful in the Emperor's mercy." I put a bolt round through her head. Then I collect all the ammo I can find.

"General. What happened? Why did you not take care of the wounded sister? She told me it were the townsfolk... the taint is great here.... How did you come upon all of my sisters? Well, answer me on the way. Get a sdetachment together, we need to find my drop-pod, we need backup here! Quickly now!"

I stride forward as quick as I can, I pause as I remember something "See to it that my dead sisters are cleaned and readied for burial."

>>12303382
Cut her head off with our powersword to save ammo and salute her. Then look for the commander and ask for a possibilty to make out planet transmissions.

>>12303402

She watches you as you take aim, the tiniest of smiles tugging at her lips, resting her head back. She closes her eyes as you pull the trigger, granting her the Emperor's peace.

Another sister, previously obscured, squeaks in terror from the sound of the gun barrel. She was babbling incoherently. Her armor was in far worse shape than the others and there was a bloody bandage over her eyes. Other than that she was mostly unhurt. The mark of slaanesh has been carved into her right thigh and up across her stomach.

The mental agony you sensed from her was overwhelming.

A woman in a plain brown dress rushes over and quiets her, gently wiping her forehead with a wet rag.

>>12303433
That's rather gruesome...can we just borrow a laspistol or something?

>>12303420
I'm going to post this under the assumption you aren't trolling so really it's just the basic things. Spelling and what not.

>>12303477

Strip her of her weapons, if it hasn't already been done, and utter a prayer for her. DON'T kill her yet. When we call for back up the cannoness can deal with her. She may yet become a repentia.

>>12303477
I walk over to her. "You. You are in a condition to fight? Stand up straight woman! This is no way for a servant of the Emperor to behave! ... A mark of Slaanesh... " I grip my bolter tighter "What happened to you? How did you come here?"

>>12303486
We may test if it's gruesome on the slaaneshi whore over there. Whadda ya say?

>>12303505
I think she might be beyond saving honestly. We are allowed to meta a bit I think. Vanessa can rationalize things to a certain extent

>>12303505
DON'T ASK- PURGE!

This is a heretic! She must be purged!

Look up Repentia, the order could always use more.

>>12303529
Er... aren't we marked by Tzeentch? So how is she more Heretical then us? When she starts dry-humping my like I'll reconsider, but untill then, we proceed, with caution.

>>12303538
No friggin' way! Remember that our character is a raging fanatic, as all SoB's are! I say we shoot on sight and set the bitch ablaze just to be sure!

>>12303548

I thought we got away in time?

>>12303505

The sister continued to babble. She was reciting a litany of purity over and over...

"What do you THINK the mark of slaanesh means?" The woman in the brown dress looks up at you, her eyes hollow. "She is in no condition to fight. They plucked her eyes out..."

The woman changed the bandage around the sister's head. You were about to ask about the weapons when a voice echoed across the chamber. "Sister. A word?" A tall man in a green cloak was standing at the door. There was a tech-priest next to him.

>>12303548
Nah, we couldn't have fallen! Our faith is unbreakable!

>>12303564
Interesting, see what he wants, but I have to say again: "Ask where your drop pod is"

>>12303558
Read the sisters fluff. They aren't all raging fanatics. Faith and Fire is a very VERY good read and its grimdark enough for every warhammer lover's taste

>>12303564
Cut her head off and then talk to the techpriest. The mere presence of a sister who failed in her duty disgusts us.

>>12303564
"Yes... allright." I step away from the horror filleed room, picking up bolter ammo left and right. "And who might you be? Ah, a servant of the Omnisiah, something reliable at last. What do you want? I need to get to some means of off world communication soon"

>>12303558
Fanatic doest not equal idiot

>>12303593
I'm just one of the voices in her head and with a different vision of her character. Our visions collide and out of them her true self is being forged. She hears us and has to do our bidding. She's ours.

>>12303603
>>12303579

They look at each other. The tech priest spoke first "Sister we tried to retrieve your drop pod before the mob got to it but..."

The man in green silenced the tech priest with a wave of his hand. "Now isn't the time. Sister we must speak." He leads you away. Your temples begin to pulse, your headache growing worse.

"You have been attuned to the warp Sister. Crafted into a psyker by the sorcerer's will." He led you to the entrance of the cave. "Emperor knows why... He didn't leave any corruption on you, nor did he attempt to shatter your mind."

>>12303667
Well that's lovely...clearly we are going repentia after this. First, the mission. Ask him if he knows of any way a transmission can be sent off planet.

>>12303667
"I... how do you know this? Are you a psyker? Why... why would he do that... I am not corrupted...? What about the other sister? The one with the mark of Slaanesh? What happened to her?"

I follow him, but look back to the sister. Corrupted as she may be, she was one of my battle-sisters. I shall pray for her.

"My drop pod was... damaged? Occupied? Could we retake it? I really need to report these findings to the cannones. Especialy now all the others are gone... do you have any astropaths? Any means of comunication?"

>>12303739
He holds up his hand. "One step at a time dear sister. Yes, I am a psyker. The only one that escaped. I suppose chaos didn't want to bother with a psyker that would make for a better sacrifice to the emperor than a warrior. I can only touch the minds of those around me."

"As for you sister, you are not corrupted. I am not part of your coven but I must suggest you hide your abilities from your Canoness. It is unfortunate that those born into the sisterhood with witchkin abilities are locked up or killed. With your will and faith you could easily... Well I'm getting off track."

He pointed at a large village in the distance. In its center was a large stone structure. "That was once the fortress of the imperial guard in this area. There should be a communications array in there. Use your knife whenever possible. It is quieter and capable of channeling your newfound... abilities..."

>>12303687
considering how easy it was for them to gather up our fellow Sisters, either they dropped planetside not far from where we did, or their all up to some shit. Knowing grimdark, it's the latter answer.

I'm also coming to the opinion that the chaos infestation on this planet is much further along than the intro statement told us. Someone feeding us misinformation. The Deceiver has already played a prominent role here, so I wouldn't be surprised.

>>12303828
You know...if we can sense the chaos in others I think the cannoness would be able to find us out easily....

Exterminatus.
It's the only way to make sure.

>>12303828
"My... knife? Why? What could I do with it? I will not use heretical powers of the warp, no matter how useful! Faith in the Emperor is my greatest weapon!" I take a deep breath and think for a moment.
"I will ask the General if he can give me some information on the lay out of the village... How large was the village before the destruction? A few thousand people?"

I go and look for the General, hoping he can get me a map and some extra gear. I need something stealthier then a Bolter and meltagun... a Hellgun maybe. A longlas... sniper support might be usefull... and maybe some explosives to create a distraction...

>>12303875
"I want to question my battle-sister when I get back. Or maybe before I go... She may have usefull information. Anything unusual in the area, patrols? D... Demons?"

>>12303875
The psyker slowly and obviously reached down and took the knife from your belt. "This, my dear sister, is a force blade. From where it came from, I do not know, but it is something you should utilize."

The General slowly approached. wringing his hands. "Sister... surely you're not going alone... I will send a small squad of my remaining troops with you. Also I think-"

He was cut off by a loud clatter of metal. The injured sister from before was stumbling down the hall. She had filled in the missing chunks of her powerarmor with the armor of her fallen sisters. The bandages had been shifted to one eye only, an ocular implant installed in the other. She was carrying a plasma pistol on one hip and an evicerator chainsword on her back.

"Faith and duty... Praise be to the emperor, shield my soul from evil and deliver me into your arms..." She continued mumbling, leaning heavily against the wall.

"If I must die I shall welcome death as an old friend and wrap mine arms about it. I shall fight until all breath leaves me. Ave Imperator."

>>12303978
"General... No, I too many of us will only endanger the mission. I will go in alone. I have a usefull thing you could have your men do... Could you plant charges in three or four places on the outskirts of the town to create a distraction? That would help. Maybe create some distraction among the cultists with sniper fire?"
I lay a hand onto the shoulder of my sister.
"Sister... I... your effort is apreciated, as is your faith in the Emperor, but I fear that in the state you are, you will only slow me down, causing us both to fail. Stay here. Recover. Guard the women and children here. If I do not return, it is your duty to contact the cannones."

I guide the sister out, and make her sit in the medicae bay. I then walk back to the general and discuss which buildings best to blow, and where to plant fire teams. I'll go in from the southwest, the charges should be set far away from me. "General... I'll need some ligh, unnoticable weapon... how about a hellgun? A bolter would be too noticable... " I'll bring my sword and meltagun just in case though.

we should take all the help we can get.

i say we try to get what info we can from the sister and then decide how to best use what resources we have

>>12304082
The general follows you, putting one hand on your shoulder. "Battle Sister! You will take my men! They have been cooped up far too long. If we are to do something about this madness, it is now. And besides, if you get to the array we'll all be killed in the ensuing exterminatus anyway."

You heard the woman in the brown dress's voice. "No no! Stay here! You're not in any-" The injured Sister stumbled out again, the General barely catching her before she fell.

"Hide not from darkness but face it and burn its wickedness away with the light of the emperor." She stumbled forward, heading to the cave entrance, taking her plasma pistol off her belt.

The general looks at you. "I'll have my men ready in less than 5 minutes. Don't let her get too far."

The man in green handed you back your knife. "Nothing is more important now than getting to that array. Use your abilities if you must. The force of your will drives it. Keep your will strong and the perils of the warp will not touch you."

>>12304176
>>12304126
Bringing anyone will make them redshirts. It means they'll die. We don't need that. We need to go, all stealth and shit. Shoot everyone manning the comms, send the pre read message (Which we will have to alter slightly) And get the hell out. No need for a whole team. Just us.

>>12304242
"Emperor's damnation... Send some men to get her back! This is not a suicide mission general. This worls is tainted, yes, but our sisters will come, they will fight. Exterminatus is... rather extreme. Unless this world is on the verge of becoming a demon world, I think we'll make it. Save your men. This a stealth mission, not a combat mission. They'll be needed later. I inisist. Just... set the charges. Distract the heretics, make as many of them leave the town as possible. I'll get the message through, and, with luck, cleanse the sorcerer. Say... you don't have any holy promethium do you?"

I run out, looking for the sister. "Sister! Do not go into your doom! Restrain from destroying yoursefl needlesly! The Emperor has many more battles for you to fight! Come back..."

I hold her and try to stop her. "Allright, allright... If you must fight, follow me. Here, here is a bolter. Now, stay as quiet as you can and cover me."

I duck among the foliage and head toward the village, praying the general will have listened to my advice.

>>12304322
+1

>>12304322

The sister didn't take the bolter, instead taking the evicerator off her back. Almost immediately the foliage around them was alive with activity, mutilated civilians charging out with crude weapons, traitor guard sporting not far behind.

The sister revved her chainsword to life, shouting as she charged. "My armor is contempt, my shield is disgust, my sword is hatred! In the emperor's name let none survive!"

>>12304416
What am I to do with two bolters...

I empty my bolter into the onrushing horde of cultists, then draw my powersword and beat and tear after my Sister. All the while I keep wondering how the hell the bastards knew we were here... As I spot the traitor guard I draw the meltapistol and fry a few from a distance, fighting my way toward them. In range, they are probably the most dangerous ones. "Why didn't I set the forest on fire earlier..." I ponder as I force my armored fist down a cultist's throat.

>>12304416
>>12304416
Try to make sure our sister doesn't kill herself.

>>12304497
>>12304568

You and your fellow sister must slaughter a hundred or more but they just keep coming. You intinctively shy to the side as a longlas blast lances past you through several onrushing cultists. This was followed by several more shots and a rocket, the explosion obliterating many of the bodies in your way. two guard rush up next to you, firing their lasguns in rapid fire.

"Go sisters! Save your ammo!" The volley of fire drives back the horde of cultists.

Your fellow sister holsters her chainsword and continues on, without so much as a nod. You can sense nothing but a cold anger from her mind.

>>12304598
I follow her for a few hundred meters before I stop her "Sister... restrain yourself more. Charging those cultists forced me to go after you, We would have done better if we had made a shooting retreat. Here is a Bolter take it. No saty queit, and only shoot if we are in immediate danger. The Emperor is not served with our premature deaths! We must strive to die meaningfull deaths in his name a nd glory. Dying for a communciations station in some backwater world is not a worthy sacrifice. Now Get a hold of yourself!"

I hand her some extra ammo and llok at her scoldingly. She could have gotten us killed. Too brash. But then, to many of my sisters have fallen because of this over eagernes.

I advance to the outskirts of the city, scouting for enemies. "Sister... when we were attacked... did you hear a noise, something? Any idea where that scum came from?"

>>12304659
this sounds good.
Also, endeavor to check our position against last known quardants, try to make a rough mental map of where our objective lies

>>12304659

She takes the bolter. The excitement has caused her to bleed through the bandage over her eye again. "To die in the name of the god-emperor is the greatest honor of all. Faith ensures loyalty for in war there is poetry and in death's clutches I may find release."

She turned from you and continued walking, though more quietly this time.

>>12304726
Emperor this isn't good.
Our sister is very likely to aggervate her wounds further and/or kill herself in this state.
We have to make sure she won't run screaming her head off every time she sees a cultist.
Also- is there anyway we can radio the remaining loyalists?
Also also- what are our options here, I mean really?
Also, what are our objectives, aside from not dieing?

>>12304726
"good, good..." I cross into the first street, taking cover against one of the nearest buildings. "follow me sister. I'll take point" Darting from street to street I strongly wish I had an auspex. I get an idea. Getting a hold of the knife, I try to see if I can pick up any life signs with witch powers. I fervently pray to the Emperor as I do. I cannot risk my soul much further.

After a little while I stop and take a look at my sister's wounds. I give her a new bandage and give her some encouragment "You are brave. But bravery alone cannot perservere against our foes. Faith, but also thought. Don't charge the enemy blindly. Getting stuck in is only a last resort, allright. Good girl. Come on, let's see if we can get to this station safely"

We really should have accepted that guard complement.
Did we at least get a map or something?

>>12304784
er... read the fucking thread? We were a scout party, sent to investigate suspicious happenings on this planet. Turns out it's over run by chaos and our only of planet comms have been captured by chaos. We are trying ti get to a comm station in the city to get a message across to the cannones to send reinforcements, medicae and let the astropaths do a carefull sweep for heretical activity.

>>12304834
Okay- I was wondering how our objectives had changed since we had discovered that heresy here was much more prevalent then originally suspected.

>>12304784
>>12304795
>>12304816
>>12304834
You guys mind if i take a quick break? I want to go get an iced coffee (its really fucking hot and its making me sleepy)

Talk amongst yourselves as to the best course of action or reread the thread for clues (there are some you missed hint hint)

Find out our sisters name
It will be better then just calling out "Hey you!" all the time.
Also, what is our name?

>>12304893
OH GOD WHAT DID WE MISS

>>12304893
aww crap my name for some reason went away. XD sorry this is OP who wants the coffee.

>>12304899

is this some sort of like, dream then?
Maybe we're being mindfucked by chaos as we speak, and we're actually killing innocent imperial servants as part of the sorcerers JUST AS PLAN

>>12304893
Me - they guy writing >>12304659
and the rest of them, is probably going to bed sometime soon... it's 3:30 AM here. Save the thread or continue, I dunno. But enjoy your coffee, fun quest. Little bit slow pasing, and a little hazy on details sometimes... but it's good.

>its rejocent
According to captcha, at least.

>>12304906
Kay OP, go get your coffee, we'll try to think up something while you're out.
(also, I'mma gonna have to leave the thread for an hour or two real soon. If nobody else posts, can you wait for me?)

I think we're going to be fucked over by these psychic powers we got. And that sister might go daemonette on us. Keep a close eye on her, be friendly and keep her from murdering too much stuff! The more she goes nuts killing shit, the more chaotic it goes. Same for us. Be contained untill some specialist can examine us.

>>12305065
Do you know what the Sorotia do to it's members that gain psychic powers?
BAD THINGS (tm)
We should keep these powers to ourselves as much as possible.
While you're right that using the powers to do stuff is a bad idea, I still think we should explore our powers.
Psykers get more powerful (and less likely to be pulled into a hellmouth) when they practice their abilties, though overuse of course will lead to your head asploding if you're lucky.

>>12305120
Using psychic powers in a Chaos heavy area... yeah, bad idea. Being a Sororita with psychic powers... Hello there Ephrael Stern II! Yeah, we're fucked. But we are going to either get purged or end up destroying our order... bad or worse?

>>12305152
Well, psykic related shennanigans seems to be one of the few things not going wrong in this area.
Also, there's always the chance we could just keep this to our self.
If we're really lucky we could get recruited by an inquistor who wouldn't mind our mindpowers.
At this point, I'm much more worried about our other sister- I don't want to administer the Emperors mercy twice in a single night.

(also- how did the general guy get us away from that Sorcerer anyway?)

>>12305192
Yeah... I tried to ask that twice or so, but never got an answer... Fucking FAITH I guess.

OP is back and caffinated 8D now where were we?

>>12305215
>>12305192
My bet (if our GM is up for this kind of stuff) is we never escaped the sorcerer, and that now we're under his control. He's shading everything we see so that we're killing innocent civilians to complete his plan.
(though that wouldn't explain the techpriest)

>>12305228
We were here:
>>12304795

>>12304795

The sister followed quietly, bolter and plasma pistol at the ready. The skin around the ocular implant was reddening and looked painful.

You made it thorugh most of the town with few hinderances, having to dodge several cultists on your way through.

You arrive at the fort in the center in once piece, the guard stationed around the perimeter were carrying bolters. There were several autocannons and lascannons along the top of the wall. The rest was lined with razorwire.

>>12305242
Whiiiiiich is why we should just kill ourselves. We have a Force Blade, which responds to us. Which makes us an obvious psyker. Which is taint and ANY Sororitas would have shot themselves for this. Not to mention the railroading of the most psyker-resistant 40k soldiers save Grey Knights into immediately being bested by a psyker, I also have full confidence that this character will never properly end their-self to prevent the inevitable 'twist' at the end, despite this being the entire reason they kill themselves in situations like this.

>>12305313

Psykers? In my Sororitas?

Its more likely than you think.

theres a whole Dark Heresy class on it and its speculated that the majority of high ranking sisters have very very slight psyker abilities. Just enough to keep them alive and stuff.

>>12305295
I plant all the explosives and the plasma pistol tohgether in a nearby building, then place a bolter shot in it from a distance, hoping this will lead the guards away. This would sound the alert, but atacking them would to... Meanwhile I entice my sister to follow me as close to the buillding as e dare and thrown our frag grenades, then fire a salvo with the bolters before falling back into a side road.

Hoping to have caused enough confusion, I tell my sister to ly down covering fire on the guards near the door while I rush closer to throw my last frag into a lascannon nest.

>>12305349
So, 40k is already going down the same road as Star Wars where suddenly everybody of importance was force sensitive?

>>12305351

... why not just throw a grenade? the only explosives we have are 2 grenades. and the plasma pistol could be useful. It has double the range of the inferno pistol

>>12305368

no its just the sororitas this is happening to. and its more of a "i have a bad feeling about this" kinda psyker thing

>>12305407
Would you be so kind and provide source?
And aren't most inquisitors also supposed to be psykers?

>>12305429

Its only a theory many ecclesiarch members have. its in a Dark Heresy book. I forget which one. Its like under a "fallen sisters" entry where they explain what happens to a psyker sister who is detected.

>>12305351

It would be better if we had more than one person working this quest.

anyone still here?

if we are trying to lure away the guards then id say rig on of the grenades to detonate away from us that would be more than enough to draw them away.

>>12305532

...?

Guess i'll check back later. I want you guys to enjoy the next part of the quest. You'll need several people for that to avoid the bad endings.

I'll just remake it if this thread 404s though i doubt i will be gone that long.

OP you coming back soon?

>>why not just throw a grenade?

>>the guard stationed around the perimeter were >>carrying bolters. There were several autocannons >>and lascannons along the top of the wall.

Splosions are likely to cause alertness.

Just caught up. So are those guardsmen going to plant some charges or will we be assaulting the fortress on our lonesome?

>cruel. remiste

>>12305532
Does OP want to make one more post and then pick up tomorrow at say, six o'clock?

OP is back all!

start making your replies and i'll start continuing.

>>12306460

its just you two. You gotta get past those auto cannons and lascannons and the guardsmen. you have access to a plasma pistol, two bolters, a power sword, an evicerator, an inferno pistol, and psyker shenanigans.

WAT DO?

>>12306586
How much cover is there around the fortress in terms of buildings? Do you have a map?

It's too bad we dont have any timed explosives but a grenade might do. Stay out of sight and look in the buildings trying to find some string.

>>12306586
Maybe we can make a distraction of some sort?
our sister makes this task tricky

Make sure our sister doesn't just charge the place screaming her head off
I agree with the others, maybe we can work out some sort of distraction with our grenades.

Maybe we can pull the old 'toss a pebble to draw away the guards trick,' a couple of times.
Each time one of the guards dissapears, another, larger complement will be sent to look for them
After the fourth or fifth time, we rig the grenades as a trap, wait for the guards to stumble on them and bring the others over to the spot by the explosion, and then sneak in.

>>12306641

there is almost no cover directly aroudn the fortress. just the buildings about 7-10 meters out.

Also, don't forget about rule of cool. if its cool and not stupid it is likely to work.

I vote for psychic powers. There may be lots of chaos around but dammit we have powers! Wouldn't it be easier to turn one on his allies or make their heads explode? We might need the grenades later

Also, the autocannons and lascannons are on top of the walls which, if its a fortress, are probably very high. that probably means they aren't coming down.

>>12306753
I like this.

>>12304894

Also i meant to answer this before but you go ahead and pick your own name and the name of this sister if you want. You grew up with this sister. You go ahead and name her.

>>12306819
This, or some form of stealth that doesn't involve blowing shit up. Explosives will let them know there's someone coming.

>>12306857
Our sisters name is Tessa, we'll be Esme.

>>12306870
But the risk!
And besides, the explosives won't draw them to us
It'll draw them to what's exploding

>>12306819
>>12306855
>>12306870

Ok what will you try to do with your psychic powers?

>>12306899
Try and make one of the guards think he heard a noise.

>>12306899
I vote against psykic powers
We don't even know which ones we have or how to use them yet!

>>12306919
Why not just toss a pebble?

>>12306896

but what about the potential thousand soldiers inside who don't know we're out here? its better if we kill them quietly.

also once again, soldiers on top of the wall. autocannons lascannons. our rosarius by some miracle may get us through but the other sister doesn't have one.

>>12306923

first time for everything. It wouldn't be hard to make them have a stroke, would it? just poke them in the brain. they'll be dead.

>>12306927

guards on top of giant wall. guards not coming down. guards will probably just sound an alarm if the first guards dont come back.

>>12306929
>our rosarius
Fuck I forgot about that thing. We'd be able to survive a quick dash across open ground with that thing on. Make a noise or psykic them into thinking they hear one, charge across into melee range and cut them up. Then we can just hug the wall while we make our way to the doors and bust in there.

>>12306886

Me likes these names

Also, i must walk my dog. I will be back in a bit. decide if powers or grenades by then.

>>12307009
But what about our Sister, Tessa?

in this case stealth is the best approach. alerting the heretics would assuredly result in our doom. so what about making use of our pycher powers? i know its gonna fill us with horror to do it, but its for the emporah

>>12307034
She'll just have to stick close for as much of the run as possible I guess.

>>12307055

cant we use our powers to make a invisibility cloak around us harry potter style?

>>12307098

if we have that power that could work nicely

>>12307034
Well...she could be the distraction. Strap the grenades to her armor and prep the safety pins to release once her eviscerator leaves her hands. Then give her your blessings then send her off to make one final sacrifice. Perhaps even give her the Rosarius to help ensure that she makes it to the guardsmen and the turrets.

She is already fated to a life of either being consumed entirely by the taint of Chaos or dieing in the name of the Emperor. Why not ensure the latter?

>>12307173
Because she's destined to become our waifu.
See, I said what everbody was thinking. Now sit in the corner and thing about your mistake.

>>12307098
I'm back! and yes you can do this. Jesus i was sitting here going "come on... you can figure something out... decide on something..."

I'm assuming this is what you wanna do?

>>12307209
There will be a time and a place for waifus, Sister. Particularly those who haven't been fucked to insanity in multiple orifices by the followers of Slaanesh and will either be purged or sent on countless suicide missions until the inevitable happens.

Now's not the time to act like a ronery otaku hugging his body pillow oh-so-tenderly while watching K-ON. Now's the time to do what best for THE EMPRAH!

>continue hourdy
Captcha's backing me up on this one

>>12307276
Yes do this OP

>>12307276
ayyup
(my plan as what to do to the sorcerer is oh so deliciosly heretical......mwah ha ha)

>>12307276
Sure. We mainly just dont know what our powers are capable of.

>>12307276
Okay, invisibilty is a go!

>>12307286
Hey, he's just saying what everybody's thinking?

You pull Sister Tessa close to you, glancing once more at the defense.

"Don't let go." you instruct her as you focus inward, drawing out your newly found perception. Immediately you felt the warp close in on you, the horrors of beyond dancing at the corners of your vision, but they didn't approach.

The energy wrapped around you both, your bodies dissolving into nothingness. Completely invisible.

You approach the gate in the wall, the strength of your will and faith holding the power in place. You slip through the opening with the guards none the wiser.

You let your disguise dissolve once your out of immediate danger. You're quite tired, but pleased with yourself.

Your headache is back.

>>12307409
have tessa take point and lets go find those communimicators hyuck


are you using a system or just freeballing it?

it worked?
And we weren't consumed by the warp?
Hmm, maybe this whole psyker thing isn't such a bad deal after all.
Right, Irregardless, we have job to do
Tell tessa to stick close

>>12307409
What sort of powers are we capable of?

>>12307423

i gots my big bag o dice next to me

You point down the hall and Tessa goes and takes point, glancing around the side and creeping forward. You hear a crack and a gurgle, Tessa motioning for you to follow.

The flesh around her implant is really starting to look painful.

>>12307445
Do we have some kind of first aid kit equivalent on us? If so, anything in there that might help Tessa with her implant rash? You mention it to bit too often to leave it unattended, can't affort to have her go blind in the mid of this mission.

>>12307445
psyker powers HO!!!
use our gift of teh emprah to heal the area around her eyes , and why the hell not , see if we can regrow her other one?

>>12307469
No first aid kit with you. You might be able to find one if you want to risk it.

>>12307503
Well, fuck
Keep an eye out for one (no pun intended)
Once we deliver deliver the message and aren't in the immediate threat of being killed by chaos forces, then get her to proper medicae
"Tessa, your eye looks pretty bad- anything I can do?"

>>12307499

You approach Tessa, summoning your powers again. The warp dances at the edge of your vision, pressing harder this time. Your hand glows with witchkin power.

Tessa steps back but lets you touch her face. There is a flash of light and the implant is gone. Her eye is restored, though its rather red and puffy.

Your headache worsens... a lot...

>>12307503
Would our powers help us discern if any first-aid kit we found is tainted by the warp or not?

We should also keep in mind to chew out whoever did the implant if we survive this mission.

>>12307552
well , take a rest and see how tessa is dealing with us being a psyker , since most sororitas just LOVE being around psykers

>>12307552
Alright, from this point forward, lets save the psykic powers until we REALLY need them

>>12307573

You duck into a room. It looks like some sort of shooting range. No one would bother you in there. You sit down in a corner, holding your head. Tessa follows you, blinking her eye over and over again, her mouth open a fraction. It was already looking better.

She looks down at you with an expression you cannot read. It is a mixture of emotions you have never seen before.

She sat down next to you after a long moment, staring straight ahead, one finger stroking the magazine of her bolter. Her expression was unreadable.

>>12307617
"How's the new eye treating you?"
Crack a weak grin, and jesture for her to sit down next to us.

>>12307617
can we sense her emotions ?
if so do that and then wait until the head ache is gone to press onward , tessa taking point naturally

>>12307617
Tell her if she thinks it will be necessary, she should wait until we have completed our objective.

>>12300799
We're auto-saging. New thread?

>>12307617
"Tess- you gonna blamm me for being a dirty psyker-witch?"

>>12307696
Nah, lets finish up here and pick it up again tomorrow

>>12307680
Seconding.

>>12307649
>>12307648

She slowly looked at you. "The implant was starting to fail... I..." She closed her mouth.

"I am not fit to judge you sister, marred by chaos as I am. If the touch of the Witchkin is what the emperor has provided for us, then we shall trust his judgement. We will purge this chaos."

She began cleaning her bolter, once again mumbling the litany of purity to herself.

>>12307752
can we get a new thread?
this one is autosaging and i dont want to leave such a good thread yet
also proceed until headache stops then continue

>>12307752
We should wait until the headache gets better. Also - let's rest our head on her shoulder.

>>12307804
You're pushing it with this waifu thing, soldier! The battlefield is no time for shoulder-head-resting!

>>12307788
New Thread

>>12307838

>>12307804

dont know if want, that might trigger a flashback of getting uberraped by slaaneshi cultists , in which case , she'll turn into dead wieght mumbling the litany of pureification

>>12307752
"Tessa- I don't know what will happen from this point forward. But I know one thing- we cannot fail. Whatever happens to us, whatever we have to endure: well, if it is done in His name, then I must accept this sin to prevent future evil.
Tessa- I may not be around much longer....
Even if we both manage to survive- well, you know what the official stance is for sisters touched by the warp.
I just wanted to say, I love you Tessa. I always have, and I always will."
