Banned with two Shakespearian Yo' Mama jokes. Painter : "Y'are a dog." Apemantus : "Thy mother's of my generation. What's she, if I be a dog?" Demetrius : "Villain, what hast thou done?" Aaron : "That which thou canst not undo." Chiron : "Thou hast undone our mother." Aaron : "Villain, I have done thy mother." The second one is the funniest, because it actually sounds

[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="1034" id="2954088"]I think that you'll agree that yellow-ish teeth are not particularly attractive. Though I was unaware that the British stereotype included dirty teeth.[/quote] Well yes, if your teeth are yellow it can look bad, but from what I gather gleaming white seems to be the acceptable level to those in the US concerned with such things. Anyway, the root of the stereotype is apparently from WW2, where a lot of US soldiers will have m

So, I am here for an explanation. Can any of you explain the teeth-whitening obsession (which is what it looks like to most people over here) in the USA?

So do they retain their individuality when, say, they remove the armour, or do the souls transfer from the stones to the body?

[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="1015" id="2952411"]It's a combination of "Korlandril=Korlandril" and "Korlandril=Korlandril-Morianath". Korlandril is still Korlandril in that he retains all memories and many feelings and thoughts of his existence, but he's more of an amalgamation of the other Exarch identities and himself. Or at least that's what I got; though I haven't read the book recently, so I may have to reread the relevant passages to better inform you.[/quote] H

I knew a large portion of that, but yes, that which I didn't know was intriguing. So there are a finite number of Exarchs on a craftworld at any one time? Can they found their own if they are all taken or will they leave te craftworld to find an undermanned one, seeing as their main allegiance is now to a path of war? The only part of that which I was not sure of was "Step 4", ie the creation (which you've explained) and the actual spiritual existense of the Exarch, ma

[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="1010" id="2952265"]TBH, it would be faulty reasoning; in Path of the Warrior, there are mentions of several male Banshees, and there's no reference to anything that would be like they're "woman in spirit". However, it's also noted that the majority of Howling Banshees tend to be female, with very few males in their ranks. Other Aspects are less gender biased, AFAIK.[/quote] I blame it on vagueness of the codices! But anyway, I'd s

[quote who="KrdaxDrkrun" reply="1006" id="2952256"]Warhammer 40k. Ah, how detailed. Is there a path for the Eldar that results in a gender change? They seem to have quite a few odd paths.[/quote] Some would argue that when a man wears Banshee armour they effectively "become" a woman in spirit, but I'm sure GW hasn't put too much thought into it.

Hmm... As I saw it he never really thought about it much, and they're both young and naive. And as the Solitaire has made clear, none of that matters for him anymore. My backstory to what is actually going on is a small Biel-Tan expedition to a crone world being assisted by an Iybraesil force. Stuff goes wrong involving the Emperor's Children (picked for obvious reasons), and now escape is the priority. I might reword the part about his love inte

[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="1003" id="2952210"]Specifically, an Arctic Warfare Super Magnum, chambered for the .338 Lapua Magnum cartridge. Quite impressive actually, considering that that round is only certified to 1500 meters, rather than the 2400-some-odd that the shooter managed.[/quote] That's Limeys for you. I think it's his record that still stands, not sure. [quote who="Whiskey144" reply="1003" id="2952210"]I'm thinking a 7.62 NATO chambering would be mu

Banned because some of it is indeed mind-melting. I find that you just have to read the post in its entirety, then read it again, and it sort of all snaps into place. Very clever really.

I can no longer resist... the call of the infinite... The damaged wraithconstruct could barely support itself, as the Dire Avenger shared the fallen warrior's last moments of manifestation. My wraithbone... cracks... The Wraithguard shuddered, collapsing to one arm, raising the other. My soulstone... please take it... The voice was more felt than heard, as the Wraithguard reached to its forehe
