So, Last thread entailed....

1. A Sister of Battle finally marrying her boo.
2. The Word Bearers becoming fucking Cobra, only for a certain badass Daemon Prince to come reunify them under actual leadership
3. Several mehrens get lost in the space-time continuum and must now punch out the resurrected Men of Iron while finding their way back.

Other than that, mere speculations and possibilities, dear friends...

Well I think it could be adapted a bit. I sort of intended the eye to from the bottom of the last thread to be the chapters overall symbol, but I've generally tried to imply( possibly not as well as i could) in the stories about them that their society functions in a system of great houses, similar to a roman imperial structure, ie Lieko (pronounced lie-co) Tiberius it the head chaplain of house Tiber. Thus as chaplain he takes the title of Crowfather from the sacred blood crow of his homeworld as all men of his rank do. The preferred method of execution on their homeworld is to chain some murderer or someone like that up somewhere in town on a pole and douse them with chemicals to cause the carrion birds to eat them alive over a period of days. So its seen as a symbol of justice on the planet and thus by the chapter and their cult. So it defiantly could be worked into one of the great house companies banners.

Much appreciated, brother.

>Now, onto a possible story...

"Farseer," An Eldar Guardian contacted telepathically. "We have come across notes of an...ill-putting nature."
"This portent," he responded, "what sort of nature is it...?"
"It does not seek my mind or soul, so the Great Enemy did not rest here, but these runes seem almost...familiar. If only I could decipher it..."
Curious at the possibility this had, Farseer Ishannaq Elsandar of Ulthwe began his path towards the Guardian.

"What is it, Seiyval?" He asked when he finally arrived at the scene, a dimly-lit cave of red rock and sand. "Where is our cause for alarm?"
"Farseer, it is around us." Using a light-stone, Seiyval began displaying the runes that lined the entire cave. All made by what looked like a mechanical hand, each shape symmetrical, every line at an exact and measured length and never deviating from that measure. It looked...immaculate, but in that immaculate style, it also felt eerie.
"These runes..." Farseer Elsandar commented, "they were definitely not made by Eldarin hands..."
"Then what did?" the Guardian asked.
The Farseer could only guess, and for help, he needed someone better suited for the field of deciphering. For that, he needed to call upon a mentor. Normally, this would mean sending call to the most revered Farseer in all of the Craftworld, if not all time, but that time had past. Eldrad Ulthran had since vanished, desperate to derail the plans of the Black Crusades. In his stead, though, Ishannaq had to call upon another seer, one more attuned to the written word of a hundred thousand differing cants.

"Fyrion? Fyrion, can you hear me?" he sent a telepathic call.
"Yes, Farseer?" a singsong voice replied. "Need you my services?"
He answered, "I do. There is a cave off the middle peak, concealed by no boulders, but by the suns. Inside it are...runes of some sort. I am having difficulty deciphering them. Can you help me?"

"Of course I can!" she was eager to respond. "Give me a moment, and I shall soon be there!"

Fyrion was part of the Farseer's Council, comprised of both hardened Warlocks dedicated to the art of battle, and burgeoning seers more skilled in the arts of sight than battle, like Fyrion. She was a very dedicated person, always placing others before herself even to her detriment, but she always could see what everyone wanted and needed, even learning to decipher a myriad tongues and scribes. It was these ciphers that made her such an asset to the exploring party Farseer Elsandar set up.
When the perky empath arrived, she immediately marveled at the vastness of the archives written, all written with the perfect hand that would even catch the attention of Vaul.
"Well, the major factor to this, Farseer," she began reading, "Is that this was all made to predict a certain something to coincide with events in the Eye of Terror." She then tracing the routes she could find. "They say that once the humans' last defense fails, another salvation will be formed, always circling it, but never touching it."
"Never touching the Eye, or this failed last defense?"
"It says the Eye." She then jumped to the other side of the cave. "These notes calculate that by this reckoning it would take almost......400,532,305 years to accomplish? That... that doesn't sound right..." She began looking further in the notes when Farseer Elsandar found the ceiling of the cave at the end to be more like a tapestry, almost perfectly aligning to something.

"Fyrion?" She listened. "Come here. Now look up."
"Wowwww...." she gasped as she saw the dizzying array of stars. "It all looks so...lifelike. Even if they lack the certain special aspects of a craft of psycho-reactive art, these stars look almost exactly like what is going to be out there tonight..."
"Is that true...?"
"If you wish, Farseer," She then said, "we can even return to visit here later tonight, to bear witness."

Kaurava III, Kier Harrad territory, inside another Taurox:

"It's good to have you two back, but seriously Duke. Did you really had to take a dump down that Cultist's throat?"

"You always knew that I was a literal person Fenix." - replied Duke.

"Good thing we were fast enough to react to those energy spikes that appeared when the heretics shot their Lascannons at your Taurox. If we were a couple of seconds late, then the situation wouldn't look well at all." - added Chief.

"Well, that one caught us off guard." - replied Stone - "As if we didn't had enough trouble with our precious cargo."

"Man, I'm really not sure how Sergeant Major Kane will react to that trashed Necron you have. It's bad enough that he was nearly turned into one of those Pariah things. A second late and those Shackle Scarabs would've turned him into a meat puppet."

"Whatever Fenix. I and Stone had enough trouble after arriving to Kaurava III. Kane and his opinion is going to be little trouble compared to what we went through."

"If what you say is true about what you were told by the Governor General then we're going to have to bring out the big guns for this." - added Chief, his golden visor suddenly bursting into life - "And luckily we have a large amount of them back in the Kier Harrad Tactica Command."

"Well that's going to be great." - replied Stone with excitement - "It's going to be like old times."

Ishannaq seemed almost flustered, but he knew well enough to keep it hidden. "That would be a good suggestion."

Continuing on the course, Fyrion then continued to read through the runes. "Next, it mentions that a plague will arrive from the east. Curious, that sounds almost like..."
"Tyranids. It seems our writer is right about one thing."
"That makes sense," she agreed. "There is also a mention that the east will also be the source of a new hope within the galaxy, which seems to align with the appearance of the Tau Empire." She then noticed a mathematical equation, which she began calculating. "It...It almost seems to align perfectly with the time the Imperium managed to catch wind about them. It seems far too ahead otherwise, we knew about the Great Devourer centuries before their first world was lost."

"Farseer Elsandar, Fyrion, where are you?" A harsh voice interrupted the two.
"Emilri? What is it?" Ishannaq recognized the urgent voice.
He answered, "I had not noticed you on the return vessels back. The suns are almost setting."
"Has it been that long?" Fyrion asked.
"Indeed it has. We are to return immediately."
Farseer Elsandar began walking back. "Very well. Allow us to depart then with all haste."
"I would have preferred that when we were already there, but very well." The disappointment in his voice seemed clear.

As the two seers began walking back, Fyrion found another note that seemed to reveal another vital fact about the writings: their author.
"If you read this correctly," she said as she tried shining a light upon it, "it almost says that this 'magnificent work was made entirely by the machinations of...Orikan the Diviner'. Farseer, do you perhaps recognize that name?"
The Farseer began calculating everything he saw before. It all was starting to make sense if it were indeed that Heirophantic Cryptek.
"We are in the workplace of a heirophant of the Necrontyr."

A Falcon came not soon after, and the Farseer then began to discuss what he knew of Orikan the Diviner to Emilri and Fyrion as they proceeded to the Webway.
"A Hierophant who predicts stars? What ridiculousness." Whereas Fyrion was more prone to flights of fancy and emotive, Warlock Emilri acted as the Farseer's militant hand, marshalling forces where they are needed and striking down with the wrath of Khaine himself. "Are you telling me you believe a few lucky guesses?"
Fyrion refuted, "It is hardly a guess when the mathematical equations used for it all add up."
"Add up for you, perhaps..." he grumbled, insistent in his incredulity.
"There was also one other thing that seemed to intrigue me," the Farseer commented. "The stars. He said that the moment they aligned in the way he wanted, there would be a miracle that would redeem the living..."
"Then let us pray that he is wrong," the Warlock's tone was final. "I would prefer not to have my every move predicted by a mechanical lunatic."

That night, it became rather difficult for Ishannaq to sleep, as his dreams always focused upon these prophecies. He attempted to decipher these visions by walking through the Craftworld, thinking that he might find something by staying awake, but the physical activity did nothing to help his focus.
To this end, he sought the services of another of his seers, a decoder of minds and dreams by the name of Meiyal.

"Something troubles you about these visions, Farseer?" He asked.
He took a drink. "Much. The prophecies Fyrion and I read, the calculations were uncannily accurate. More to it, I feel that there is more to them, a certain something they are trying to predict, and I am... I do not know, but I do not like the omen that this unfinished reading gives me."
"Does any of this align to a peculiar arrangement of stars almost like how they are right now?" Ishannaq spit out his drink as he heard this accurate appraisal. "Ah, I heard from Fyrion."

"A-ah..." he recovered his senses.
"You seem so easily harassed," Meiyal noted. "Might want to contain that."
"Right."
Meiyal then continued, "If you feel it that important, then I can arrange to take a transport out to the surface in order to see that."
Ishannaq nodded. "I would appreciate that."
"Should I also gather Fyrion as well?" Another nod. "Very well. Just be careful."

>Later
The Wave Serpent stopped on the entrance of the cave. From here, Ishannaq, Meiyal, and Fyrion began reading further into the immortal's ciphers. "These calculations over here, they actually talk about the coming of twenty," Fyrion picked up one section of notes. "Twenty that once existed, will be found together again, eleven of them drawn from elsewhere, but two shall never have met before... Two will be known now more than ever.' In a way, it reminds me of that one Guard regiment where they fought to rescue that Space Marine group from being destroyed by the Blood God's tools."
"The ones who didn't know who their..." Meiyal remembered the situation. "What was it, their founding father, I think it was. There were two forgotten, but eighteen remembered."
The Farseer knew the rest. "And of those eighteen, six became servants of the Great Enemy. This seems to hinge upon...humanity more than anything."
"If only they would recognize it and clean up their act a little," Meiyal snarked. "A disgrace, those apes."
Fyrion then noticed another factor. It was one that predicted a warp storm, devouring the capital of the Tau Empire and the enclaves made by one of its greatest heroes. Following that was another that pertained that they would only be recovered when their greatest heroes were to fall, but after that, they would unite again.

Rather concerned, the Farseer decided to look up, hoping the star-chart might guide him on how this was meant to make sense when he saw a peculiar twinkling on the marks where the stars were meant to be.
"Curious, that..."

Also, in the case of a Chaos warband dedicated to Malal, how much would the Daemon of Malal (Preferred Enemy (Everything!), Daemon, Hatred (Chaos), all ranged and melee attacks have the Soul Blaze special rule) upgrade for Daemon Princes cost and how much would the Mark of Malal (all attacks have the Rending special rule) cost?

Fyrion and Meiyal noticed the Farseer's gaze affixed and noticed the stars shining as well.
"How nice," the linguist cooed, "They look almost like gems like this! And the way they all shine looks almost...like..."
Ishannaq turned to Meiyal. "Meiyal, can you go outside with the Wave Serpent and determine for me the sky right above us?"

The Seer went and soon contacted the Farseer again. "The similarity between what you saw down here and the night sky up here looks very uncanny. Almost like a mirror image of the sky right now."
"This would mean..." Fyrion observed, "Everything he said was right. The Tau are in danger, the Imperium will have heroes returning, the Eye of Terror is going to swell!"
"There are still things here that have something to do with us..." the Farseer muttered, his mind drifting to the idea of this room and it's mathematical equations possibly being able to tell him how to save his mentor. "There has to be more about the Eye of Terror. Maybe something to tell if we rescue him."
"You're still trying to do that?" Meiyal asked. "Why do you torture yourself so when you cannot even touch the Eye?"
"Because I still believe..." he said. "I believe that he is out there, somewhere... He lives, and we need to make sure he survives and returns to us..."
"Fyrion, how much further do you have?" Maiyal asked, realizing the Farseer is too far-removed to talk right now.
"These calculations all loop back to the eye, but nothing ever talks about what's inside it..."

The next moment became a haze for the Farseer, his mind swimming with the possibility that he could find Eldrad in there, hiding, needing help. To an idealistic Eldar, this was perhaps the reason they have sworn off sleep. To the more grim Eldar like Emilri, they have already had their moment to mourn the lost, and they have since moved on, hoping to survive in this era.

What about the Daemon of Malal upgrade for Daemon Princes? Also, how much would the Mark of Malal cost for the regular forces? It's probably the strongest because it grants the bearer the ability to kill almost everything (eventually and assuming the target isn't fighting back).

The 25 is for Daemon Princes.
The reason I upped it beyond the others is because of those reasons.

Now, if we want CSM with the Mark, I'd step it at about 20.

The same as the Daemon of Tzeentch (Chaos Daemons codex) upgrade. I'm guessing most of those points are from Preferred Enemy (Everything!) (I gave it to daemons of Malal because Necron Destroyers also have the same goal of destroying everything in existence and they have the same special rule) because from what I've experienced the Soul Blaze (I added it because I thought it was fluffy) special rule is nearly useless (my Necrons kept shrugging it off).

"Dammit. There is one left." - said Lukas Stubbs in an irritated whisper - "We have no explosives, he has one of those explosive charges left, and if he does detonate it, then they will do that whatever they want to summon thing."

"We'll have to do something about it." - whispered back Alexandra Stubbs - "We must immobilise him before he decides to do this."

"I found that Las-Pistol and knife in the rubble. Seems somebody must've dropped them...or else."

"Now's not the time to be overthinking Lukas. We must immobilise him."

"OK, I'll distract him, while you get behind him and stab him in the back with the knife. Here, take it." - Lukas gave Alexandra the knife.

"Let's split up then."

And with this, the two readied for the confrontation...

A couple of blocks away, before the explosion:

"DIE SERVANT OF THE FALSE EM...GUAAAH!!!"

"Not today scum." - replied Vance Stubbs as he shot a heretic from his Plasma Gun - "Now that this is finished..." - he quickly activated his vox - "Sergeant. Status report."

"We dispatched most of them. None so far found any of the shelter entrances. It's as if they simply were told to blow them up, yet weren't told where to find them."

"That's good to hear. But act fast. If they find any of those entrances, then it's going to be a massacre."

"Roger Sir." - with that the vox went silent.

"Well, now that this place is safe, let's go to the ne..." - an explosion a couple of blocks back suddenly interrupted the Governor General's thoughts.

"What in the...That's where one of the shelters is!!! Dammit." - he again activated his vox - "Sergeant! The enemy got to Shelter 29! Send in soldiers there. I'm the closest there is, so I'll try and stop them long enough for you to catch up."

"Sir! That's suicide!"

"Ease Sergeant. I'm too stubborn to die no matter what hits me."

"Alright Sir. Please be careful." - after this, Vance deactivated his vox and ran to Shelter 29.

But that idea, the idea he could be a hero, it taunted him so.

"You have to take this seriously, Farseer," Emilri interrupted the idea. "You are barely even initiated in the secrets that lie in the path of the Farseer, and you already have hopes of somehow becoming the greatest hero the Eldar have ever known?"
"These equations, they explain everything else to us!" Ishannaq argued. "They all line into the events of the universe and when I see the answers, I see that there is hope in the universe yet. I...I can't let it slip from my hands!"
Emilri chided, "I am not asking you to. I am warning you that your idea of being a hero is next-to impossible. We approach ever-closer to the end of our kind and you seek to chase around pipe dreams."
"Then..." he tried to summon his will. He saw the proof, the idea that there was some hope for everyone yet, but the power could never come. "What? What am I to do...?"
"We move forward." He took the Farseer by the shoulder. I know your hurt has lasted for far too long. The process of grieving will make it at least be given purpose."

>The next day
The argument with the Warlock changed Ishannaq, but some of his older habits still existed. One of these was the cave of Orikan's work, which he took another trip through, this time with the entire council.
"So..." intoned Emilri, "This is the source of all your grief...."
"It is unsettling," Meiyal replied, "but the most surprising part was when the stars all came at the right places last night. The little holes in this tapestry where the stars were all glistening like they were the stars themselves."
Emilri commented, "Necron technology is known to baffle even the most intelligent of scientists, even our own. What they do openly flaunts this impossibility."
"Then what is there to learn from it?" Fyrion asked.

Emilri began looking about, scanning what he could of the ancient writings.
Of course, there was nothing so horribly tainted or corrupting in it. No, that would be far too obvious to notice.
Now, the contents itself... The rise and vanishing of the Tau Empire, the Eye of Terror's swell, the coming of the Imperium's 20, the plague of the Tyranids, nothing quite damning. Not like the author himself was not so arrogant and stuck up, but it all seemed to make sense in an objective standpoint. But the idea of being a hero...
"Whatever you were seeking, Farseer," he concluded, "will not be here. The work here all involves these twenty returning. Whatever conclusions you came to about sir Eldrad, they are not here."
"I...understand." Ishannaq walked away. "It was something of a faint hope anyways."

After the Eldar had long vanished, their webway gates having disappeared, the cave was deathly silent. The dust remained unstirred, and the runes across the walls were all pristine.
It was during this that there was another visitor, a more familiar one.
"This has to be the one I left about the twenty..." he commented as he stepped in. A strike from his staff lit up the runes in an eerie faint green glow. "All of these theories, they add up, but... Dammit, where did I put that addendum about the slaves to those misbegotten Old Ones? Damned evacuations, forcing me out the moment I was about to finish this work! It has to be..." he looked up to the stars to see a writing along the rim, in a scribe size almost impossible to see with the naked eye. "The Old Ones, their pain continues again with those Krork, but the Eldar... wait, they become less of a threat to the Triarch? How does that even make sense unless... Oh, ohhhhhh... He is the lynchpin to their participation! Of course!"

Thus satisfied, Orikan the Diviner fled. He had a way to force the Eldar to act.

I put my ideas for what the Mark of Malal would cost for non-HQ units in the doc. I based the cost around the costs of the other marks and how easily the unit has access to low AP weapons. Attacks becoming AP 2 is the main strength in the Rending special rule, it's less useful on units that automatically start with AP 2 or 3 which is why the low end in mark costs is used for units like Mutilators and Terminators (who are always equipped with Power Weapons).

The Cultist Leader saw the explosion pack that survived the booby trap. He picked it up and readied to blow up at least part of the shelter when suddenly a voice from behind called him.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you."

The Chaos worshipper slowly turned his head to the source to find Lukas pointing a gun at him.

"Wha...what is a brat doing here?"

"Didn't like the shelters, so I wanted to mess your plans."

"Wait a minute..." - the Cultist had a sudden realization - "YOU WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR THOSE BOOBIE TRAPS!!!?"

"Maybe."

"Why you little...!!" - before he could move, Lukas shot from his Las-Pistol into the ground in front of the Cultist.

"Just because I'm nine years old doesn't mean I don't know how to shoot."

"Bloody...it's like Cadia all over again!!" - with that the Cultist pulled a string from beneath his armour and the secretly installed chem-injectors pumped chemicals into him. To his horror, Lukas saw how the Chaos worshipper grew larger. The Cultist surprised him even more when a short tentacle sprout out of the Cultist's right ribcage - "Now then boy." - said the mutant in a deeper and more menacing voice - "What will you do now?"

As the abomination moved towards the horrified Lukas, Alexandra jumped out of the shadows and stabbed it with the knife int the back...only for it to ignore the girl's attack.

"Annoying." - said the mutated Cultist as he grabbed Alexandra with his right arm and threw her aside into a wall.

"ALEX!!!" - with seeing his sister being thrown like a meat puppet, the boy snapped and shot the abomination in the chest...with little results.

"Carapace Armour. It can stop a laser shot." - replied the mutant. With this said he instantly jumped at Lukas, grabbed him by his jacket and slapped the pistol from his arm.

So, here be stattage.

ELIPHAS THE INHERITOR, LORD OF THE WORD BEARERS-250 points
May be taken as an HQ choice for a Chaos Space Marines or Chaos Daemons army.
WS 8 | BS 5 | S 6 | T 5 | W 4 | I 7 | A 3 | Ld 10 | Sv 3+
Unit Type: Monstrous Creature (Unique)
Daemonic Attributes: Warp-Forged Armor
Rules: Daemon, Eternal Warrior, Preferred Enemy (Space Marines), Adamantium Will, Daemonic Instability, Deep Strike

Hellforged Artefact: Ascension's Guide
This weapon was once the Accursed Crozius wielded by Eliphas the Inheritor as a Dark Apostle of the Word Bearers. When he died on Kronus, he had thought this weapon lost. However, the nature of the Warp is a very fickle thing and it easily was rebuilt from his memory upon his apotheosis. From there, he had it rebuilt, modified for his new form, and imbued with the auras of hundred daemons from each god, so that they may remember who it is he worships.
This is a melee weapon with S +1, AP2, Concussive, and Specialist Weapon.

Daemon of Chaos Undivided
As part of his upbringing as a Word Bearer, Eliphas was taught to revere the Gods equally, as four faces of an equally twisted concept known as Chaos.
As such, he counts as owning the main four Marks of Chaos.

Vengeance Be Mine
If Eliphas loses his last wound in the Combat, he will be removed from play, but his spirit will continue to haunt the enemy who banished him. At the start of the enemy's next turn, he must test unmodified morale. If he fails, he takes d3 S4 damage that ignores armour saves and Look Out, Sir! Invulnerable saves, though, can be taken against these blows.
