THE HERO OF THE IMPERIUM

[hegantha]

Characters: Amberley Vail, Commissar Ciaphas Cain, and YOU
Setting: All around the safe floors. The cafeteria, dorms, etc.
Format: Actionspam is cool, threads with cain and amberley will be done separately
Summary: Propaganda is good! Everyone should know that there's a hero among us who stands up for good humans and helps protect them from the tower!
Warnings: Discrimination towards aliens and anything practicing magic. The shoot first, ask questions kind of discrimination.

[ Amberley and Cain can both be found about the tower today, the almost seven foot tall man following behind the smaller woman dressed in his normal military garb with his chainsword at his side. You do get the sense that he's being dragged around by her, mostly because of his stoicism and her cheery enthusiasm make a pretty jarring contrast.

The two each have a stack of handmade flyers they're handing out, which Amberley made with a marker and some scrap paper. Not the most high tech propaganda out there, but it was better than nothing. Everyone who runs into the duo will get one of these.



At least they're trying to help, even if it's in their own horribly misguided way. ]

I have no knowledge of such things.

This place is not of your World, and surely there are Magics here that do not require your sanctioning.
A Magus from my own World is simple a human being who has mastered the Art without aid from a Daemon. Power is inherited, not bestowed.

[Lancelot fails to mention that his own Master, present in the Tower is just chock full of Power enhancing Worms that do, on occasion, burst out of his malnourished body.]

You carry an unusual weapon. I have seen its like before.

[hideandhero]

Well, yeah, power is inherited. It'd be a problem if that kind of thing strayed outside of the navigator families and other sanctioned psykers. Which it does, just not that often.

But you've seen a chainsword before?

[chevalier_mal_fet]

I have. In the hands of a Knight. One who shared your dislike for Magic, yet spoke at length with me-- though I am sure you would think my Power "unsanctioned". I am a Spirit, manifested through Magic.

[He isn't so much concerned for himself as for his Master. He won't allow harm to come to the Magus, weak and reluctant as the man is.]
Tell me, what do you intend towards Magic users in this place? It seems to me that this Tower itself gives us more than enough cause for horror and fear without threats we might give each other.

[hideandhero]

[Yep, that sounds absolutely heretical.

But you could say Cain's greatest skill in life was staying alive. And keeping a pokerface.]

I plan to do frakall. What's the point in killing one if whatever dark power is running this place will just bring them back? I'll pass on that, thanks. Doesn't mean I have to like them.

[chevalier_mal_fet]

Your speech is somewhat strange, yet I take your meaning-- and your word as well.

It is fortunate for those here who do not fit your requirements that there are those such as myself who are willing and more than able to protect them.
[Well, in the sense that he's willing as long as his Master is concerned. Or you know, he feels like it.]
So long as you seek harm to none, I have no quarrel with you, Commissar.

[hideandhero]

Valhallan slang. I've been around people from that planet long enough to make it normal for me.

I'm more interested in where you saw a weapon like mine.
