Yes, it`s a tyranid roleplay. :shok: And we are full.
Plot: In the battle for Tarsis Ultra, the tyranids were eventually defeated when a Deathwatch Kill Team succeeded in delivering a biological toxin into the heart of the tyrani Hive Fleet, the Norn Queen itself. The resultant frenzy of mutation overwhelmed even the tyranids advanced physiology, and the psionic backlash all but destroyed the tyranid Overmind controlling the invading swarm.
With that, The ultramarines and mortifactors withdrew, leaving only a small contingency to aid the local populace in their clean up efforts.
But the tyranids, whilst diminished, were not eradicated. (at least not for the purposes of this rp. We`ll assume a couple of survivors. :biggrin: )
Even now, some small semblace of control has been restored, and their survival instinct is stronger than ever...
Cast of Characters:
Dominatrix Prime: aka "Mother" (npc)
First: Serpion5 Single bonesword, Spinefists.
Second: eh89 Rending Claws, Deathspitter.
Third: DestroyerHive Scything Talons, Spinefists.
Fourth: Tolisk: Lash Whip, Devourer.
Fifth: warpspawned: Rending Claws, Devourer.
Sixth: Snowy: Scything Talons, Devourer.
Basically, I am looking for five more tyranid warriors to complete the brood. Knowledge of tyranid fluff and behaviour is essential to stay in character. If you are unsure of what mannerisms to use, we`ll aim for something along the lines of the zerg cerebrates in starcraft. It`s a stretch, I know, but we have to start somewhere right?
Names are irrelevant. You`ll simply be called by your number as you join (in this case representing the order in which your character will hatch.)
Weapons: One close combat weapon configuration. Either scything talons or rending claws. Fluffwise they`re about as lethal as each other, so it mainly depends on whether you want to slash `em up or rip `em up.
One ranged weapon symbiote.
Devourer: Has longer range, higher rate of fire, but little armour pierce ability.
Spinefists: Shorter range, burst shot. Slightly better at armour pierce.
I will also include two mutations, to be claimed on a first come first served basis.
Deathspitter (taken): High strength, good armour penetration, good range. eh89
Lashwhip (taken): Longer reach, able to immobilise a single foe. Tolisk
I leave it up to the players to apply sensible limits to the extent of their abilities. For example, the lashwhip immobilises a foe. So if you are fighting three guardsmen, you`ve essentially got one less to worry about. However, if fighting a space marine, I expect he would be a little more resourceful.
Personalities will develop over the course of the story. But to begin, you are essentially newborns.
Rules:
Don`t hijack the storyline. Stick with what you`re given.
No God Modding. (obvious)
No killing, injuring or directly controlling another player`s character. Only I can do this.
I am the Alpha. You are allowed to think, comment and form opinions. But you are not allowed to disobey. :nono:
I expect at leas one post a week. Inactive minds will be reabsorbed by the collective of the Hive and replaced. You will only be warned once... :spiteful:
