>>11412272I really should be working on my friend's avatar/sig set with all these 40k pictures I now have.
As for lore, it's more or less I made a Death worlder that used to work for a Crime Baron. He worked as the guard of the world's mine which harvested a mineral used for Psyker foci implements. The Baron did trade with the Imperium and Void Pirates, but decided he could find better buyers than the pirates. Void cunts got pissed and brought a fleet to seize the planet.
Baron blamed the stop of ore being sold to the pirates as a coup being orchestrated by my character and they seized him and all my men. So one of the other players (who is a void-born pilot playing a void master) brings in a ship filled with a small specialized team to recon and see what the hell happened to the planet's ore production.
They land and go in, and find out that Void Pirates have taken over the mining outpost and are working with the Planetary something-or-other (also the Crime Baron) to harvest the ore for their own means. They locate my character and his squad, and help them escape so that they can be interrogated. Along the way back to the ship the pirates ambush the entire group and slaughter my character's squadron while my character gets away but takes my friend's character and his platoon hostage and brings them to the gallows. My character (I'm just going to be calling him Jackie for future reference) decides that his cowardice has gone too far and goes to try and save the people that freed him. One by one, my friend's platoon (his toon's name is Torque) is killed off and I just manage to save Torque before he's hung and we escape from a hail of bullets via pirates. We then proceed to epically commandeer a strike frigate, and maneuver it into orbit and smash through the Void Pirate's Flag Ship's bridge and escape in the confusion.
That is the story of Jackie's beginnings. And his name is actually Jacobo Yggordsen.
