I'm writing a story based on...

[wethepeople]

Warhammer 40K. I'm going to write up a story based on many battles I've had, but mishmashed into one cool story. The Imperium of Man has launched a mighty purge against the swamp planet Exidus. It contains relics of old, such as pieces of the Imperator titan and alien artifacts. 51 Divisions of the Imperial Guard are sent in to take the planet battle by battle. The inhabitants, however, won't welcome them with open arms: The Orks (Before you close the topic know two things. I'm editting the orks to be more badass, there will NOT be any Ork dialogue or raping of the english language.). You may either be Human, Ork, or Other. The other will be revealed within the story. For human you can either be a soldier, tank driver, pilot--Anything. An ork however is an ork. This isn't gonna be a corny story or kinda cartoonish like the game is, this is gonna be brutal.


Basic notes about how it functions: A player may die. I will have a fair selection process (Bunch of names in a hat. <_<) and if your name is drawn, you will die. Sorry. This goes for all the races. There will be a giant hat, not a hat per race. *'s are optional. Age doesn't matter, but its cool to know. And if you don't pick a class I'll pick one for you. Orks do NOT have classes. You can make any type of class up.

Fill this out:

Race:
Name:
Gender:
*Age:
Skills:
*Class: (Pilot, tank driver, heavy weapons, etc.)
Weaknesses:
Specialization: (Weapons, healing, magic if you're a psyker. Etc.)
Description:
Gear: (Max of six things. Rifle, pistol, two grenades, a backpack and a satchel for example.)

Btw, I'll have a character. His name will be in the hat. He might die.

Race: Human
Name: Alexander "Rev" Constantine
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Skills: Specializes in driving tanks and manning stationary guns such as heavy bolters or recoiless rifle emplacements. Has seen two wars already, so he knows how to maneuver and shoot. Expert with the M229 grenade launcher.
Weaknesses: Gets light headed when battles break out. Often forgets to take cover or reload. Forgets his objectives when in a battle. Trusts people too quickly.
Specializations: Heavy weapons, driving.
Description: He's taller then most other Imperial guardsmen. He has crewcut black hair, a scar running down his left cheek from eat to mouth. He's not fat, but he is large. Very muscular. Seering green eyes.
Gear: Kasarkin heavy rifle, frag grenade, backpack with extra ammo, bolter pistol, Imperium codex.

[Commisar Gaunt]

Race: Human
Name: Thom "Thumb" Fairaday
Gender: Male
*Age: 30
Skills:  He's capable of picking up and hauling weapons that people would have to be augmented usually for. Inaccurate mostly, but who needs to be accurate with a huge heavy machine gun or rockets? Very tough to take down--has survived multiple gun shot wounds and physical fights.
*Class: (Pilot, tank driver, heavy weapons, etc.) Heavy Weapons/Flamethrower
Weaknesses: Poor accuracy, relies on pure strength alone for hand to hand combat. In hand to hand combat, he goes into an uncontrollable rage, which is not especially effective for quick, nimble opponents.
Specialization: (Weapons, healing, magic if you're a psyker. Etc.) Heavy weapons/Flamethrower
Description: He's a HUGE guy, so his nickname is sort of ironic. Very muscular, and tall. Surprisingly genial, and pretty straightforward. Down to earth. Smart, but in a quiet, reserved way.
Gear: (Max of six things. Rifle, pistol, two grenades, a backpack and a satchel for example.) Incinerator, fuel tank, Hellgun, backpack, extra clips, picture of his kid.

[pielord47]

Race: Human
Name: "Chaos" Korhne
Gender: Male
*Age: 364
Skills: Powerful fighter, able to take damage, is immune to weak magic abilities due to his strong warp presence
*Class: Heavy Infantry
Weaknesses: He often forgets he has a Bolter pistol and just charges at the enemy, sometimes forgets he is now fighting for the Imperium
Specialization: Close-combat, pretty fast
Description: A former-Chaos Khorne Berzerker, Korhne abandoned his first name when he joined the Chaos legions. Due to the insanity that often overtook him when he stood near the Warp, he no longer remembers his first name and people just call him "Chaos" because of his history. He will still have periods of time where his lust for blood is severe, and he must be held or chained down before he kills anybody in his company. He stands 6' and never takes his armor off except his helmet. Always has his weapons within 10 feet of him. Red eyes and red hair. Most people think the hair is dyed from all the blood of the enemies he has slaughtered.
Gear: Chain-axe, Automatic Bolter Pistol, Khorne Berzerker armor, able to cast the Mark of Khorne into the air, and 2 grenades

I was wondering if I could make another character? I would love to make a psyker...

[invincible13matt]

Race: Human
Name: Derik Kerid

Age: 153
Skills: Fanatical devotion to the Emperor allows him to ignore all but the most dangerous wounds, inspires others very easily and to almost his own level of fanaticism, a pariah, strong at close combat
Class: Leader
Weaknesses: requires lots of after-battle surgery and augmentation because he tears himself apart during battles, stubborn as an ass
Specialization: Close combat, inspiring the soldiers
Description: An Imperial Guard priest, he stands shorter than most of the men but his fiery nature makes him seem larger than most of them. He is heavily augmented in the arms and legs, and these augmentations frequently require heavy repair due to his merciless use of them. Wiry. A veteran of many, many battles, and remembers all of them.
Gear: Eviscerator, bulletproof Imperium bible, iron faith

[wethepeople]

Sure, you can make another one. Only two per person though.

Specialization: (Weapons, healing, magic if you're a psyker. Etc.) Lots and lots of uncontrollable, powerful magic.
Description: He's just a scared little refugee looking for his parents, who were brutally murdered in front of him. He mentally blocked this event out, obviously, and he's very VERY shell shocked.
