Well hello


Name: Commissar Harrison

Side:BDD (Miilita Commander)

Weapons/powers: Bolt pistol, Power sabre. Refractor feild, carapace armour, A really nice trench coat, duct tape , a laspistol, a combat knife(on boot), a pocket watck that can't tell time, sunglasses and a rubber duck adn chicken.

Background: HAving missed the Red Dragon skirmish, Harrison sat around for a will until, Commissar Gribb put a request for promotion. He was promoted and was issued a bolt pistol, that look s cool but has not other meaning. He made his way through the swamp(I remeber, it'll work to our advantage, hopefully) to a little inn named the Black Dragon. Inside it was pure chaos as there were loose rules that were enforced when needed. But danger lurked in the foul Seer Fox. Harrison was then made the Milita comander under the General himself.
Major Harrison, of the 40th Corps,

So lets all admit the truth. Tony stark is the Emperor.

Name: Corproal "Are They Dead Yet" Trauma

Side: BDD

Equipment/Powers: Chain sword (standard issue), biker-style helmet (notstandard issue, see avatar), serated blade (long knife), laspistol, sniper-rifle (on back), bionic eye (grants excellent aiming), PDA . Extreme courage. ???

Background: Trauma was one of the few surviving members of the Necromundan 42nd, at the hands of the evil Necrons. When he and his unit were trapped by group of the enemy, he never gave up, despite the loss of one of his eyes. He took the fury of that battle with him, and has never met an enemy in defeat, although his unit often held casualties. Trauma is known for his skill in charging at the enemy, firing his lasgun, before discarding it and drawing his chain sword as he clashes into the enemy; and is often known to fight on, whist being the only man left standing. However these long battles have taken the toll heavily on his unit, and he is the only known survivor.

Why do we have a lot of people in our side?

Side: against Black Dragon (RDC)

Name: Jinx Shadowsong

Weapon: Agoniser, Power weapon (both are knives)
Wargear: Shadowfield

Background: The general of the Red Dragon defenders (who won the last Tavern war). Mysterious past. Sacrificed psychic connection for advance body muscles, and because of this he is probably the fastest of all the fighters. While not having psychic connection have it's disadvantages, this also meant that he's not affected by cullexus assasin, nor pariahs. He is a survivor of many worse and has often fought bigger and more numerous enemy.

Game Name: The Slann

Side: RDC

Equipment: A floating chair, levitated by the power of his mind, a portable dronks dispensor fitted onto said chair, a skink attendant, a big brain, and a huge amount of fat (giving him a -9+ ward save).

Powers: Where to begin? Most magical abilities are mastered by The Slann, but his favourites are:
Fireballs
Lightning Bolts
Entangling Vines
Summoning of Dronk (flammable)
Teleportation
??? (Secret ability)

Background: The Slann joined Seer Fox for the first war, as he thought it might be fun. After a few posts, he drifted off, effectively crippling Foxie. He has now become resident at the Red Dragon and spends his time fixing the Space Station and meditating. He has particularly taken to dronk, and has built up quite a beer belly.

Name:  Sejj  (short for my username, seems to have picked up)

Side:  BDD

Equipment: having discarded the magic cloak and runic sword, now all i use is my body to fight, collar of khorne, some type of eldar runes which help against psychic attacks ( forgot its name) a cloth that covers mouth(has to do with secret power),and most importantly, 2 bracers on the forearms, each gives him a lot more strength and attack speed.

Powers: Has mastered over 20 forms of martial arts, has his own style which incorporates fighting spear fist style, and other types aswell, and his special ability . . .. Also immune to psychic attacks and such, since sejj isn't alive, his bran does not function like normal peoples, so psychic attacks will have no effect as he can just shut off his thinking and mind if need be. Also a regenerating ability, can heal serious and critical wounds within a certain time period, depeding on seriousness of wound. Being undead, sejj also feels no pain, but cutting off his arm, or giving a deep gash on his shoulder, will still hinder his movements etc untill he heals.

Background etc, :  Sejj was born in a very poor family, his family was slain in front of his very eyes by traveling rogues.  He was taken in by a strange man who sejj doesn't even know the name of, trained in "the academy" , proficient in over 20 forms of martial arts, his superior speed and strength then most people helps him fight well.   After graduating from the academy, sejj began to work as an assasin and muscle for hire, bodyguarding, escorting etc.  Soon he met someone who would change his life, sejj then became involved in defending the black dragon inn as part of his greater mission, in which the safety of the black dragon in was crucial.  While working at the black dragon in, sejj went through a change.  He is now not living, and is more of a zombie type person.  This change has made him into something inhuman, he no longer acts or behaves near the same way as he used too, and now lives solely to fight . . .

Good good, remmeber folks, if you're character is inhumanely strong/fast etc. to inlcude it in your pwoers etc. like Sejj and Jinx have done.

You also must least all powers you intend to sue except for your one secret power. So fi you're a spyker you need to list what you can do like The Slann and Seer Fox.

Well unless there's soemthing special about them no, as I know what it is. You can move stuff and persuade the weak minded basically. So long as you don't have anything more than the basic (but not neccassirly weak) force skills you don't need to list it.

You didn't seem that picky about who got them.. besides that its technology I can always do with more bits of technology! (its not like I've got enough systems on by battlesuit is it?). But if you really like I'll make a post asking you nicely for one.

And I just realised I mispelt 'shield' and opened the only quoted sentence with a horrendous gramatical typo.. oh for shame... must edit.

Name: Battle Brother Norroar, Norroar, or whatever anyone feels like calling him

Side: BDD

Equipment: Force Weapon, Terminator Armour with Cyclone Missile launchers, Assult Cannon, Psychic hood, Extreme hatred of anything that doesn't agree with him (inanimate objects included), Auspex, Bionics

Powers: Storm of the Emperor's Wrath, Might of Heroes, Veil of Time, Vortex of Doom

Background: Battle Brother Norroar once was a mere guest watching the struggles of Good and Evil at 40k Online.  However as he watched he decided to join this glorious establishment.  After spending some time in the Beninners thread and the Fiction and Art thread he discovered a wonderful place called the Black Dragon Inn.  After reading up on the topic a bit he decided to help protect the Inn against the vile Seer what's his face.  Besides, there might even be something to gain from mercilessly slaughtering the enemy

Reading new rules...... They do have more experiance in the wars. But I wouldn't complain until ...well I'm not to sure. I just have a feeling that things will go bad for us. Not that they will but there just a feeling there that says. "Were in trouble."

A feeling along the lines of 'Oh Makenshi, why do you hate me so?'

Don't think your even worth the notice of him. Its me you have to worry about. Perhaps if you didn't grumble about it constantly, you wouldn't feel under as much pressure as you do now.

You may have the experiance over me and my army but that doesn't mean we are going to go down that easy. Don't assume your going to win Seer Fox. I don't want you to be in shock when we beat you in the end.

Can I take his helmet when we win? It'd be so cool to have a trophy. Or perhaps Yoda's ear, or Uzzy's launcher.

Can we take trophies Makenshi?

It's not Uzzy's Launcher, it's the Uzzy Launcher and belongs to Wurzel.

To an extent yes, I wont allow you to take thigns like armour etc. but weapons and miscellaneous items can be taken, then again they may be booby-trapped...

The only reason I'm trying not to be really smug here is because I know being smug in Tavern Wars generally creates your downfall. Try to remember that when the battle starts will you?

And you'll have to pry my Ghosthelm off my cold-dead head if you want it. And that ain't gonna happen.

I don't have much use for a Bionic Leg myself, so maybe I'll just sell it as scrap instead.
