RE: Warhammer 40k RP- would anybody be interested
Name: Jhorl Kargruz
Race: Human
Height: 5’9â€Â
Weight: 73Kg
Age: 74
Wargear:
Laspistol
Mark of Slaanesh (not sure if that counts)
Forces:
A Cult of Slaanesh. As it is spread out between Moirdivan’s major population centres, it is difficult to determine the exact numbers of this organisation. However it is likely that they number close to a hundred thousand in number. Most are poorly armed, with laspistols, swords, or even rudimentary clubs being far more common than any standardised equipment. Several thousand are members of the Imperial Guard or PDF forces stationed on Moirdivan, as such have better training, armament and discipline than the majority of the cult. Finally, two five-man Noise Marine squads of the Emperor’s Children form a hidden inner-circle of the cult, and act as Jhorl’s bodyguards.
Appearance:
Jhorl has been gifted with many mutations from Slaanesh, although most are discreet enough for him to pass unnoticed amongst the population of Moirdivan. His hands have turned into simple lumps of flesh, each ending in five tentacles of varying length in place of fingers, although Jhorl has learnt to manipulate these mutations so that they pass for a normal appendage. In addition, although it is impossible to discern by the naked eye, his oesophagus and stomach are now lined with short, incredibly sharp spikes, each tear at his food, and his own flesh, whenever he swallows. A line of small, discreet spines run down Jhorl’s back, while two small nubs of bone above his eyes mark the location of his next mutation. Should he succeed in his current plot, these bones will burst through his skin, marking him irrefutably as having been touched by Chaos.
Personality:
Jhorl is a fanatical devotee of Slaanesh, and meticulous in every detail. He has something of an obsessive compulsive disorder, for in his eyes everything must be perfected. This obsession, unsurprisingly, was what led him to his worship of Slaanesh. Over the years he has gradually grown more and more sadistic and obsessed with pain, but even the art of killing must be made a perfect art. It is his belief that the screams must last for hours, and that the death, when it comes, must be as slow and painful as possible. He is never satisfied by the death of a single being however, and when torturing prisoners taken by the cult he has been known to throw his fellow cultists to the torturers, in order to increase the volume of the screams.
Reason for coming to the Planet:
He was born there.
History:
Jhorl Kargruz was born on Moirdivan in a small, backwater settlement. It soon became apparent that he was a gifted and intelligent child, and when he was five years of age it became obvious that he possessed psychic powers. However, before he could be sent away to train at the Scholastia Psykana, his home came under attack. The jungle rose up and enveloped the entire settlement, wiping out sentient life in the area.
Jhorl was injured in the attack, his back lacerated by spikes from a particularly aggressive plant, and stung numerous times by the many venomous plants and insects that swamped his village. Poison coursing with agonising strength throughout his body, and pain clouding his mind, Jhorl let loose an instinctive Psychic plea for aid.
His call was heard, but not by any mortal being. Slaanesh felt his pain, felt his power, and spared his life. The Chaos God reached into Jhorl’s body and altered it so that the poison became harmless. Although still wracked with pain, Jhorl survived his wounds.
However, he would not make it back to civilisation alive, for he was now stranded in the midst of the jungle, lost and surrounded by all the dangers of a death world. With the young child’s mind still open to the warp, Slaanesh sent one of his servants, the Greater Daemon Zhal’krstolistaskrk, to protect Jhorl. The Keeper of Secrets possessed him, and granted him the strength to return to civilisation.
There, Jhorl was quickly inducted into the cult of Slaanesh that was steadily growing in the underworld of the planet. Since then he has lived within the shelter of this dark brotherhood, watched over by his fellow cultists. He believes himself to be the chosen disciple of Slaanesh, sent to bring Moirdivan under the sway of chaos, and in return that he will be gifted with immortality.
The Emperor’s Children know differently. Jhorl believes that these Chaos Space Marines were sent to ensure his safety until he could deliver this world into the hands of Slaanesh. In reality, they were sent to make sure that the host for Zhal’krstolistaskrk remains intact until the world has been prepared for the arrival of the Keeper of Secrets. Jhorl may think of himself as the chosen one, but in reality he is nothing more than a sacrifice.
Pros:
Chaos Psyker
Jhorl is a powerful sorcerer in the service of Slaanesh. He has the ability to manipulate enemies, luring them to their deaths with the seductive power of Slaanesh, as well as being able to unleash powerful bolts of warp energy. If he has the necessary sacrifices, he can even call up a band of Daemonettes.
Zhal’krstolistaskrk
The Keeper of Secrets dwelling within Jhorl’s body whispers to him constantly, offering him advice, warnings, and even brief glimpses of the future. These visions are mostly imaginary however, as the Greater Daemon has no wish to alert his pawn to the fact that its days are numbered.
Some part of the Daemon’s resilience has been passed on to Jhorl as well. Like Daemon’s, he is difficult to kill.
Cons:
Doomed
Jhorl is doomed to die sometime in the near future.
Delusional
His many visions have convinced Jhorl that he is the supreme champion of Slaanesh, and destined for greatness. He is easily tricked and flattered as a result, and will spare the lives of anyone who compliments him, unless he grows bored of their presence.
