New Blog & Stories on my Armies' Fluff

Post by dnanoodle » Sun Apr 07, 2013 12:04 pm

Heya guys. I promised Badruck a story about my Eldar for the Ogaki event he ran last year. Well, months and months later I have a story that is almost entirely different from what I promised, but it's a start on getting there.

Heretics Divided is the first chapter in a longer work that will tie together the fluff and characters from each of my armies. It follows the stories of a Grandmaster, an Inquisitor and a Farseer whose fates collide to determine the survival of billions, both eldar and human. I put up a blog to post it and the chapters that come later so I don't have to format it individually for each forum I use.

Let me know what you think!

The bartender asks "What'll it be?"
The Grandmaster says "It will be the Emperor's justice."
The Inquisitor says "It will be the collapse of the Imperium, rotted from the inside out by heresy."
The Farseer says "It will be what it already is and has always been."
The bartender says "Drinks, damnit! That means I'm asking about drinks! You guys come in here every week! You gotta learn to let up if you wanna drink in my bar!"

Or something? Lol I knew I was walking right into that when I posted this.

Bravo, sir! A fine response if ever there was one :)

I haven't had time to read the blog fully, yet, but the first couple of paragraphs seem good. Terse, but good :D
current (2019) hobby interests

Wow. And then Corona happened. Just....crickets, all the way through to 2023...

Thanks MiJ :D Yeah my Inquisitor is a terse guy, among other things :mrgreen:

Chapters that focus on other characters will read differently, but I haven't written anything but notes and a bit of short dialogue for Ithacus. I still need to find a voice for him. I could get to that if I didn't have to paint up an army for Nagoyahammer :shock: hehe

No idea, but you can upload one here if you want. (Just keep it small as we don't have a lot of bandwidth :D)

Sure I could upload one here if anyone would prefer a pdf to read (I know I do most of my net reading on my phone, so pdfs are good for me). How would I go about that? I don't see any tools for it in the post options.

Oh and I drew some cover art for Heretics Divided last night and just posted it up. You can find it here.

When you make a post, just under the 'Save/Preview/Submit" buttons should be a section saying "Options" and "Upload Attachment." Click the Upload one and you should be able to post your PDF here.
