#night lords stuff

Had to get this scenario out of the system real quick, so it looks a bit rough (one day i will scan my drawings, i promise. But today is not the day lol)

Sharing is caring, right? 👀

Used bluish grey paper to make it feel dark and oppressive, just like onboard of a Night Lords vessel.

Why do I have a mental image of Jago Sevatarion’s wife having the Imperium’s only signed propaganda poster of Sevatar?

Love your WilliamWasFramed!AU! It's such a fun and unique take on all the characters!

I'm curious about a few things 👀 How did "Eggs" and Springtrap bumping into each other at Fazbear's Frights that first time go? What's Phone Dude's thoughts on Springtrap and also the nightguard he chats on the phone with who's toootally not the same person? And if someone were to, say, write a fanfic of your AU, what'd be your ao3 username so the work can be properly gifted over there-

First Impressions Are Tough

Will eventually managed to convince the night-guard to let him into the office, but it took some time to get through to him—something about ‘Eggs’ having a nasty run-in with a “friendly-sounding” animatronic in the past.

(Also, my AO3 is metamatronic as well! If anyone were to write me anything I would cry fr /pos)

Happy Glorious 25th of May to all who celebrate!

Have some sketchbook pages I did of various Night Watch characters

I've never posted my art on here before and I don't know if I will again but I'm actually pretty proud of these so I thought I'd post them for today

What primarch, or hell Astartes or just legion as a whole, has been flanderized by the fandom/who do you have funny facts about that shatters popular perception? I'll go first.

Leman Russ is only pretending to be stupid and has written multiple books in lore (saw someone say more than Magnus but can't find source)

Rogal Dorn putting his hand on Konrad Curzes shoulder after trying to talk him out of killing some people who resisted the crusade (and Konrad being uncomfortable with Dorns "fake friendship".)

‘No,’ said Dorn, placing a golden gauntlet on his shoulder guard. ‘We are liberators, not destroyers, brother. We bring the light of illumination, not death. We must govern with benevolence if these people are ever to recognise our authority in this galaxy.’ Curze flinched at the touch, resenting the easy friendship Dorn pretended. Bilious anger bubbled invisibly beneath his skin, but if Dorn was aware of it, he gave no sign.

Lorgar (upon having his prayer session with the boys interrupted or whatever) told a custodian "I wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire". Lorgar also witnessed some ritual in which a naked woman is turned into a demon. So Lorgar has canocially seen a woman naked.

Corvus Corax disliked poetry

Can u imagine living a horrible fucking life for decades and only finding solace when you dream of your soulmate.... and finally meeting them, but then having to scare them away for their own safety, but they come back to save everyone......

Oh, Feysand. Your love burns so bright that even the stars pause to admire you.

[babyblueetbaemonster]

Maybe it's a mom thing. (or a cat person thing?) Haskill would look at his baby lord doing mundane mortal stuff and be fascinated.

[samijey]

..............okay y'all

[nereidof40k]

I headcanon that Sevatar was a total menace as a neophyte/scout, and if ADB won’t write that I definitely will. He was a total gremlin even before adding Curze DNA. That already made it worse.

It’s a good thing he and young Boba Fett are in different galaxies, or they would have taken over the galaxy before hitting puberty.

[nereidof40k]

Classic, I can see it. Can’t stop laughing.

not at all a request but i just wanted to share the image/idea of the night lords seeing that their dad got a spouse and then collectively pulling their own spouses out from their many, many hiding spots and Kurze just stares for a long minute. You can see the gears turning in his head.

"Well. As long as nobody eats someone else's spouse, this is fine."

(Someone does eventually bite someone else's spouse but Kurze definitely never needs to find out about that.)

Kurze feels a moment of, something about how they all seemed to be hiding their most important things from him, but then he just scowls and says something about his legion being sex obsessed morons.

This upcoming week's preorders for warhammer are the funniest combination they could think of.

For Kill Team, 40k's small scale game where you play as a single squad of dudes, you have the Chaos Space Marine Night Lords vs Druhkari Mandrakes.

To quickly sum that up, you have a terror troop that makes the "normal" space hell-infused supersoldier barbarians look nice. These are the people that skin their victims, broadcast screams to their friends, and generally are the most edgy of the edgy faction in general. You can see them below with all sorts of skin hanging off them, swords made of bone, and a whole ass banner made of a partial dead supersoldier.

Opposing them are the shadow demons of the torture elf faction. These are the guys that lurk in the shadows of Edgy Shadow Murder Elf City that scare even the people who live there. They also skin people and wear them as their clothes too. And they wield edgy dark magics that they throw to burn people alive (and possibly their souls as well).

Then you have the War Cry box, the Age of Sigmar Fantasy skirmish game which has Lumineth vs Nighthaunt.

The Nighthaunt are cursed spirits that the god of the dead personally has constructed ironic punishments for. These ones in particular are eternally burning ghosts that used to be healers, alchemists, and priests who attempted to use sacred fires or potions to burn away death or purify areas of the undead who now spend their afterlives aflame or having to keep the awful flames of Nagash's realm alight upon pain of worse fates.

So that leaves us with the elves who are the exception right? Well they're nicer than the above, being monk/druid/paladins who are trying to save the realms. However, anyone familiar with Lumineth or with the trope of "too good makes an evil paladin" kind of tropes, you can figure out that they're not always the good guys in the stories. Still they're mostly good, but let's hope they don't run out of villains to fight

They're also dropping the dark fantasy human hunters alongside the eternally starving ogres who are mutating teeth and tusks out of their body (they previously were for sale together but they're now splitting the box).

So these opposed and themed boxes are dropping soon alongside... gnomes.

The whiplash between these products feels like being hit with a truck

I think one thing Night Lords does better than any other 40k novel i’ve read is communicate a sense of weight and realism to Astartes combat. They’re not shrugging off injuries or clashing weapons together like power rangers. They get hurt, they stagger, there are weapons they are unwilling to hazard fighting, they bleed, they die. Power weapons are rare and basically unblockable as Melee Weapons Covered In Lightning. Melee combat in general is something only done to save ammunition when culling weaker foes. The characters break bones, get knocked out, or need urgent medical care in nearly every book. The series just does an incredible job of showing that astartes are still human and are not invincible protagonists. Talos gets his face crushed after having the epic idea of improvising an explosive decompression and smacking his head on the edge of the hole. Xarl gives himself brain damage head butting a Company Champion. Uzas’ armor is a ruin from trying to get in close quarters all the time. There’s just so much attention paid to what it’s actually like to be a transhuman with emphasis on human.
