Your “situation”

“Ah, you must be the transfer, Florence Nightingale. Welcome to Imperator Academy. I’m the Student Body President, Roberta Guilliman.”

“Thank you, just call me Max."

“Of course. Come on, I have much to show you.”

Whoever gave you this false identification had no accounting for a good name. It was long and unnecessary, but it was certainly better than having numbers as a name. You follow Roberta around the campus. From the atrium to the mess hall. The academy was too big to be called a school, rather a small village.

“And this is the gym.”

Batons, staffs, practice swords, and there was even a trampoline, not to mention the sheer size. Roberta chuckled at your wide-eyed stare.

“It’s quite the gym isn’t it?”

“Yeah I’ll say. It’s amazing.” You said with a slacked jaw.

“Only the Terra’s finest instruments are here,” Roberta said proudly. “There are also plenty of clubs for you to join.”

“Like what?”

“Fending, spear sparring, unarmed, triathlon, swimming, and that’s only the start,” Roberta said. “Of course, there are other clubs.”

“Sparring huh…”

You look at your calloused hands that has yet to soften. In a bizarre fashion, you continued to train within the Imperium in secret. For one, it was an unbreakable habit. Two, you never know what would try to harm your siblings, the only good thing left on this Emperor forsaken galaxy.

“Is something wrong?” Roberta said.

“It’s nothing.” You said with a forced smile. “Where to next?”


>It was then you noticed a tall girl, just like Roberta, approaching with a toothy grin. Covered in sweat she was holding a practice sword.
>As you were being given the tour, you met the Dean of the school, Dean Yarrick, one of few faculty members that knew your true identity.
>It was in the courtyard the tour ended, and it was where you saw another tall girl like Roberta, clearly another famed daughter of the Primarch. Roberta's brief but noticeable frown made it clear of her dislike, but who was this girl? She clearly seemed proper, dressed impeccably like Roberta. You just hoped nothing dangerous would happen.

>As you were being given the tour, you met the Dean of the school, Dean Yarrick, one of few faculty members that knew your true identity.

Get with the times old man, we live in the era of the more lore appropriate thicc fem-Primarch. In all seriousness though I know a guy that could probably upgrade these old designs with the correct level of MASS. Femarch 40k quests have lifespans of 2-3 threads on average so I'll see if this quest lives long enough for it to be worth putting him through the trouble with his busy schedule. Unless you're willing to spend $15-$20 to commission him of course.

After this one you'll get the chance, no worries anon

The halls were bustling with students, and you could feel the attention on you as you walked alongside with Roberta. You wouldn’t blame them, Roberta was one beautiful girl. Then you see on the other side the students parting ways. You knew that resting scowl anywhere, that was the first face you saw when you took the first step in your new life.

“Good afternoon, Dean Yarrick.”

“That remains to be seen.” Dean Yarrick said. “I assume the tour is going without an incident?”

“Yes, Dean Yarrick.” Roberta answered elegantly. “

“Good, keep it that way. Kolbe.” Dean Yarrick nodded toward you.

His voice WAS like hot gravel soaked in centuries-old amasec. A bariton of a voice that was sharp a bayonet, yet coarse as a jagged stone. The infamous claw, it was beautiful as the first time you witnessed it in battle. After all, if not for him you would still be in Nuceria.

“Sir.”

“Should you need my attention on a matter, you know where to find me.”

With a pat on the shoulder, he continued his walk. Now their eyes were on you, even Roberta’s.

“Wow… I never saw the Dean like that before.” Roberta said. “You must’ve really impressed him.”

“It’s nothing really… I just know him since he helped me with my transfer.”

“Impressive.” Roberta said.

You arrive back to the entrance of the academy. By then class was over.

“I’ll see you tomorrow Max, we’re in the same class after all.”

Now you waited for your siblings since you promised to walk home with them.

>Though you didn’t see the point since you lived in the academy’s dorm. It was just you and your siblings since the students had a home of their own in Terra, they were sons and daughters of nobles after all.
>You lived in an upscale apartment where low-ranked army officers and low leveled officials would live if they were stationed in Terra. It was still a luxurious place.

You live with Dean Yarrick, so you’d have to wait until his shift was or you get picked up by his secretary. You wait by the gate as you watched the other students enter a fancy car or aerial vehicle. Lucky bastards, children of all ages too. You knew your anger should not be aimed at what they were born with.

“Max~!”

You saw your siblings, Aldous and Catherine running toward you with their pristine uniforms. You run toward them and squat down, they basically tackle you into a hug. They were fraternal twins and looked pretty similar. But they were in synch as if they were twin psykers.

“Hey you two!”

They giggled in your arms. It was hard to believe they were such bright children compared to years ago. You held both of their hands with your backpack slung on your shoulders. While the norm was you’d be given a ride, you thought taking a walk to see the upper scale area would be fun for your siblings. And it was. Their eyes darted everywhere, pointing and cheering on everything they saw.

“Max look at that lady’s funny hair!”

“Woah look at that servitor’s fancy hat!”
“Aldous! Catherine! Stop saying that!” You chided them quickly.

Though it didn’t really stop their enthusiasm.

>Without much of an incident you returned to Dean Yarrick’s mansion.

A considerable crowd followed a tall girl, like Roberta, who even had the same blond hair save it was longer than Roberta’s. You met her eyes and she begin to approach you with graceful steps. Aldous and Catherine, children who were raised in the gladiatorial arena as you were, were immediately hidden behind you. They didn’t like strangers, that was why they were told to arrive earlier with you. Aldous and Catherine grabbed tightly on the hem of your coat. A habit back in Nuceria.

“Mmmh…” Max grunted. “I don’t like her.”

“I don’t like her eyes…” Catherine said.

Well it was true, there was a resting glare in her sharp eyes, accentuated by the fluttering eyelashes. Not to mention the way she walked, like Roberta she had quite the thighs. Underneath the layers of cloth, you could see the thick physique. Once she approached closer, you saw the clear difference in height. But now, you were aware of the crowd behind her.

“Safiryte El’Jonson.”

You took her strong handshake.

“Maximillian Kolbe, mind having your… entourage back off? They don’t like having attention on them.”
She nodded after glancing at your siblings, the crowd followed her order despite their jealous glares. Looking at her face closely it was like staring at a porcelain doll, emotionless, cold, offset by her enchanting beauty.

“It’s not easy to transfer here, you’re actually the first transfer in the academy’s history.” Gwynevere said.

“So I’ve heard.”

“How did you get in? My peers and I are quite curious.”

You realized she didn’t release her hand, the grip only became tighter, not to mention the constant eye contact.

>You weren’t much of a liar, but showing your real identity was worse “I just studied.” You answered simply
>Social life be damned, not like you wanted to be an astartes… or to fight again. “With all due respect, I think that has nothing to do with you.”

Haha, about that, I want to draw, but my schedule has other plans. I wish I had to QM and grind to the point where I could feasibly run a drawquest without help from a buddy of mine.

Social life be damned, you were there to graduate, get a job, and provide for your family. It wasn’t like you wanted to be an astartes too. You were done with fighting after all. You grip her hand tighter and look her square into her eyes.

“With all due respect, I think that has nothing to do with you. Lady El’Jonson.”

Her eyes narrowed, exuding an aura that many would fear. But you, who faced the pyramid acid pits, a deadly game of prey and predator in the forests against soldiers, and faced horrors of humanity, she was but a spoiled princess. You’ve killed men, worst of the worst to the most undeserving.

“This academy was built with mankind’s finest.” The Lioness answered. “I’m only here to see what kind of ability allowed you to enter here and what you can contribute to the academy and mankind. If you have entered the academy honestly then there shouldn’t be an issue.”

“Well, I just like to keep my affairs, my affairs. If you’ll excuse me-”

Her grip tightened, this interrogation wasn’t over.

“You’re the first ever student to transfer to this prestigious academy with Dean Yarrick’s favor.”

How did she know that already?

“This academy is a sacred place, it is my business when it comes to whether you will bring down an academy or not, you are an outsider that doesn’t understand old Terra’s way after all.”

“It still isn’t your business.” You growled it out. “I need to go home now and cook dinner for my siblings.”

The aura disappeared, replaced with a cordial yet cold smile.

“Of course, then answer me one thing. Do you plan to pursue politics?”

It was your plan, and so were other career options. Whatever it benefits you and your family.

“Perhaps.”

“My club, Cherubics, would be a good way to network with Imperium officials.”

“I’ll think about it.”

She smiled.

“That’s all I ask. Good day, Maximillian.”

You returned home without much of an issue. Aldous and Catherine threw their backpacks and immediately went for their rooms.

“For the love of the Emperor… Al! Cathy! Pick up your backpack and wash your hands now!”

>>5228046
They sighed, and moved with the speed of a dying slug. You follow them upstairs and wash your hands with them. The dinner was simple, and you made sure to make Dean Yarrick’s portion.

“So how was your first day?”

“It was fun!” Aldous and Catherine said in unison.

“They were nice to us-” Aldous said.

“And we made friends!” Catherine finished.

Those smiles… there were no greater gift than their smiles.

“That’s good. You two didn’t just stick with each other right?”

They both nodded.

“What else?”

“We also played tag during recess and we won so many times-” Catherine said.

“- and the teachers said we were super fast and mayb we can join a Jr Sports Club!” Aldous said.

You grab two napkins on each hand to clean their cheeks. Emperor, they even ate the same. It was a good thing they were a fraternal twin instead of identical, they you wouldn’t have been able to keep up.

I'll make it easy for you guys to choose

The meal was continuing so pleasantly. Good food, fun times, something you learned to cherish. It was then you heard a bell chime echoing throughout the mansion. You continued to ignore them, not like it was your business to attend to Dean Yarrick’s guests. It would have been better to not embarrass him by seeing guest as well.

“Why are they keep ringing?” Aldous said.

“It’s too loud.”

Their scrunching face made you move. When you opened the door, you were met with two tall girls. One with obviously curled hair that shimmered like sparkling silver. Another one was a bit shorter, dressed in a more casually compared to the sharply dressed girl, rather sickly looking. Though it still looked like she could toss a grown man with ease.

“See I told you Morticia. I knew I saw someone going in here.” The girl said. “Good afternoon, I am Phoenicia and this is my cousin Morticia. We’re here to deliver some notes from our fathers regarding their latest expeditions.”

“Dean Yarrick isn’t here right now but I’ll give it to him.”

“These documents are rather sensitive is it alright if we wait here?” Phoenicia said.

“You can alway come back after you leave your vox-number.” You said.

Just what was up with you and attention today?

“I’m afraid it must delivered soon as possible.” Phoenicia said.

Like hell you were going to let strangers in. While your siblings made great strides through therapy, they were wary of strangers. It was certainly better when they used to be completely silent or outright hostile to them. Then you suddenly see Morticia cough violently, then fumbling to get her inhaler. She was in pain, even with the help of inhaler she took several press to calm herself down.

“S-Sorry.” Morticia said sheepishly.

“No… it’s fine.” You said.

“Max… who are they?”

Your siblings were peeking from the corner.

>You stood firm. “I’m sorry, Dean Yarrick isn’t here and I’m not comfortable letting you in.”

That is some hive mind shit right there, are you guys gene stealers or just like Morticia a lot?

>>5229524
I'm not about to let a sick girl stay outside solely to autism

OH YEAH, Actually, i wonder when we'll meet Angron's daughter. I mean, we have a lot in common with the old man, don't we?

>>5229524
Not hive mind, some of us used >> instead of >.
Checkmate.

You really didn’t want to let them in. Your plan was to graduate with the top grade while being away from the attention. Maybe join the Administratum or be an officer in some agro world. You sigh, you couldn’t let someone sick just stand there. You open the door reluctantly, much to your sibling’s chagrin. Your siblings retreat to their room quickly while making sure to shoot a dirty glare. You sigh.

“Sorry about those two, they’re not exactly fan of new people.” You said. “Excuse me.”

You climb up the stairs and open their door gently. The twins were on their bed, reading a book together. Not really reading though, you know they read faster than that. You sit by their side, with a hesitant smile.

“I don’t like them.” Aldous said.

“They’re strangers.” Catherine said.

“They’re only here to deliver a document, it won’t take long ok?”

Their silence told you enough, you stood up but Catherine grabbed your sleeve.

“You won’t abandon us right?”

You hug them both tightly. Their small shoulders, soft skin, and their tight grip on you as you hug them always made you remember.

“Of course not. I love you both more than anything. I will never abandon you guys. Sit tight ok?”

They nodded. You walk down the stairs and saw them both patiently waiting.

“We do apologize for the sudden intrusion, why, I never go your name.” Phoenicia said.

“Maximillian Kolbe.” You said.

You prepare some tea and place it on the recaf table. Morticia drank it but Phoenicia took a sip and place it down on the table.

“So, are you a student in the academy?” Phoenicia said.

“I am, I transferred here.”

Their eyes widened.

“You’re the transfer student.” Morticia said. “Roberta was talking about you.”

“Yes… you’re the one with Yarrick’s favor. At least, his respect it seems.” Phoenicia said. “That’s rather impressive.”

“I just know him since he helped with my transfer.” You said casually.

You see Phoenicia’s leg cross and her thick thighs. Emperor…

“I think it’s still amazing,” Morticia said sheepishly.

“Quite. Dean Yarrick has a rigorous standard. I don’t think even Heraclius met his complete approval.” Phoenicia. “And he’s the Captain-General’s son and never lost a match.”

You twiddle the thumbs of your twiddling hands. A match… you hated that word. Not that it was anyone’s fault. The hot sands, the sticky and damp handles, taste of copper, the blur, the consuming rage… the begging, there were so much of that. You close your eyes, then open back up, seeing the artful home you were in now.

“A match, huh.” You said quietly.

“I beg your pardon?” Phoenicia said.

>>5229675
>“It’s because he sees it as a match, something to win or lose, a game…” Your hands ball up to a shaking fist, slowly sinking into the reemerging memories, the surrounding became blurry, tainted by the vision of the past. “Fighting is never about winning or losing, it’s about killing your opponent to live another day. No matter the methods, anyone who whines about honor or dignity hasn’t felt a blade chip in their ribcage or the withdrawal of a stim. Living with the guilt of being a heartless murderer.” [Gladiator]

>“It’s because Dean Yarrick fought for his life, to him it was survival. And to survive, it’s more than winning or losing. Even more when you have people you care deeply. Then nothing becomes sacred, and you have to live with the guilt with what you have done.” Your hands ball up to a shaking fist, slowly sinking into the reemerging memories, the surrounding became blurry, tainted by the vision of the past. “To see fighting as a match, a game… what a fucking joke.” [Gladiator]

>“I mean…” You chuckled forcefully thn clear your throat, that was close. “I guess Dean Yarrick expects more. He’s the Captain General’s son after all.”

>Write-in (choose the option either to use “[Gladiator]” option or to pretend to not know much about it.)

>>5229766
Could if you want to. Most quests don't bother. And most people here don't raise a fuss until like, a week has passed without an update

Well I usually do an update once a day so there's that. I'll be looking at the threads 1800 PST.

>>5229678
>“I mean…” You chuckled forcefully thn clear your throat, that was close. “I guess Dean Yarrick expects more. He’s the Captain General’s son after all.”

“I mean…” You chuckled forcefully then clear your throat, that was close. “I guess Dean Yarrick expects more. He’s the Captain General’s son after all.”

Phoenicia nods but Morticia looks at you longer until breaking eye contact.

“You’re a guest of Yarrick, what’s your relationship with him?” Phoenicia said.

“I’m just a guest.”

“Enough of a guest to cook in his kitchen.” Phoenicia said.

“It smells good.” Morticia said. “Do you cook often?”

“Yeah I had to learn how to cook since I take care of them.” You said proudly. “They’re picky eaters too, so I have to mask some smells so they won’t know they’re also eating vegetables.”

Morticia giggled, then coughed lightly.

“You must love them dearly.” Morticia said.

“I do. They’re…” All you had left. “They’re good kids. Not a hint of selfishness other than being picky eaters. Though that’s on my part.”

“You like to spoil them. I can understand that.” Phoenicia said.

“Since when?” Morticia giggled.

Phoenicia gently pulled on Morticia’s cheek playfully.

“Since you, silly.”

You noticed her sharp eyes focus on you again. If not for the situation it would have been a pleasant thing. You weren’t going to lie, you like female attention. But not when they were prodding you.

“Are you interested in any military-related occupation? After all, most students plans to be either an officer after the academy or delve into politics.”

“Mostly politics but I’m still not sure.” You said with a shrug. “I don’t like conflict.”

“Yet you attended an academy known for its competitiveness,” Phoenicia said.

“I’m not afraid of competition.” You said simply.

“You’re confident,” Phoenicia said. “But I wonder how long that will last.”

>“As long I can provide for my siblings, I don’t really care if I don’t reach the top.”
>“It’s not about how long you can last, it’s about getting back up when you’re beaten down. I’m not afraid of that, and I’ve done it before.” [Gladiator]

No, this happens in a majority of quests. Usually because one option just seems exceedingly better than others.

>>5230120
Also reply coming around 1800PST

>>5230120
Oi, I'm just a regular fag thank you very much.

Update coming soon, I spend way too much time on their names

“It’s not about how long you can last, it’s about getting back up when you’re beaten down. I’m not afraid of that, and I’ve done it before.”

You meet Pheonicia’s eyes, those silver eyes shining like glinting sword in the night, bathed in moonlight. It made you wonder just how her mother would look like. Though this was not the time for something like that.

“To fall once already is disgraceful.” She said disapprovingly.

You meet her glare with a glare. A tense silence, until it was broken by Morticia.

“I think it’s admirable.” Morticia said. “I have a condition so I don’t attend lectures a lot. I’m not good at much either.”

“Morticia didn’t you beat Freya in a spar not long ago?”

“I was just lucky.”

“Lucky… right.” Phoenicia. “You need stop devaluing yourself because of some illness. It’s your perseverance that made you strong despite your illness, you refused to… oh you sly girl.”

Morticia smiled foxly. Phoenicia rolled her eyes.

“I suppose it’s not a complete disgrace.” Phoenicia said.

The door opened and Dean Yarrick returned. Whatever documents needed were given.

“Welcome back, Sir. There’s some grox and vegetable steamed if you want. It should still be some what warm.”

“Hm.” Dean Yarrick grunted. “I’ll be in my studies.”

“Are you ok with them knowing that I was here?”

“Offcially, you are a guest as my friend’s son. I see no reason to keep a secret.” Dean Yarrick said. “I expect you to carry yourself accordingly.”

Dean Yarrick left to his studies, and you siblings finished their meals eventually. After the meal you were in your room, checking the class schedule. But what you noticed in your homeroom was alarming if not eye opening.

>You were stuck with half of the daughters. Theta & Eta, Furia, Phoenicia, Heraius, Kaligo, Faith, Isis, Morticia, and Petra [The traitors]
>You were stuck with half of the daughters. Eclipse, Atsali, Freya, Elyan, Roberta, Remillia, Angelus, Flamouria [The loyalists]

>>5230241
Depending on what is chosen you will be locked into the pool. If the traitors, then you can only romance them now and vice versa. Forgot to add that part

Theta & Eta -> (Two alphapet that comes after one another. Like twin’s they’re inseparable and so are the letters)

Heraius -> Horus’s daughter (Hera, queen of Olympus, thought it was fitting since she’s the daughter of Horus)

Kaligo -> Konrad’s daughter (darkness in latin)

Isis -> Magnus’s daughter (Egyptian goddess of knowledge, life, and magic I thought her name was more fitting instead of being used for Horus's daughter.)

Eclipse -> Corvus’s daughter (I thought the moon motif fits her better personally)

Atsali -> Ferrus’s daughter (Steel in Greek, I thought it was fitting since steel came after Iron)

Elyan -> Lion’s daughter (Yes I changed the name, if you guys don’t like it I will change it back. My reasoning is that Gwynevere (Guinevere) was originally Arthur’s wife. And since Lion is based off of King Arthur it didn’t feel right naming her like that)

Flamouria -> Vulkan’s daughter (I do like Venus but the name felt weak not to mention it’s based on goddess of love, sex and beauty. NOT SAYING SHE ISN’T. But Flamouria is more than that like Vulkan isn’t just some guy who has coal skin and red eyes. To me, the name sounds strong and hey, fire motif, passion. All that good stuff.)

Personally, names means a great deal. Sorry it took a while guys.

This had to be a mistake. You look at the class schedule again, it was no wonder your homeroom assignment didn’t come in so early. If you knew before hand you’d panic or ask for a different homeroom class. Seriously? Half of them? And these were some heavy hitters too, the twins, Roberta, and Angelus, the most popular of all according to school rumors. What a headache. You would go to Dean Yarrick’s office, but you didn’t want to bother him.

After making sure your siblings took their shower and brushed their teeth, you do your own and go to bed. You looked up in the ceiling, uncertainty gripped your unresting heart. You weren’t afraid of them per say, it was the consequence of making an enemy of them. One slight against them meant the end of your job prospect.

Eventually, morning arrived. With both your siblings holding each of your hand you walk past the gate and you first escort them into their classroom.

“Ah, Mr.Kolbe.”

“Good morning Ms.Tetahedron. Please take care of them well, I know they can be a bit of a handful.”

“A fine morning to you as well and don’t you worry, they’ll be in good hands.”

“Thank you.”

You stand in the courtyard, many students were lingering around since homeroom wasn’t due in ten minutes. Some were throwing disks, synthetik leather spiral balls, or just goofing around. In front of you was the main building of the school. Taller than the walls of the colosseum, and elegant as the Emperor himself.

>You enter the school, and navigate among the crowd to your homeroom.
>Your reflex caught an oncoming spiral shaped ball with ease. A male student was running toward you. You knew his face, no one on Terra didn’t know who he was. He was Heraclius Valdor, and along side him was Julius Pius, and some other people behind them.
>You hear some commotion, mostly girls fawning over and cooing, and wouldn’t you know it, it was Aldous and Catherine, and another teacher of the elementary section escorting them. You know that they started class later than yours, but what could they possibly want?

“So cute!”

“Aww, look at them holding hands!”

“Would you like some candies?”

You hear some commotion, mostly girls fawning over and cooing, and wouldn’t you know it, it was Aldous and Catherine, and another teacher of the elementary section escorting them. Like a guided missiles, they found you with ease. They waved their free arm towards you, which had their attention to you.

“Max~!” They said in unison.

They ran toward you and you bend your knee to receive their hug. You ruffle their hair lightly, and you didn’t care about the attention for now. You know that they started class later than yours, but what could they possibly want? For now, it doesn’t look like they’re in trouble.


“Hey Max can we visit you during lunch time?” Aldous said. “We swear we’ll-”

“Behave and won’t cause any trouble for-”

“Your classmates, pretty please-”

“With smilies on top?”

You sigh, you seriously wonder how they weren’t born as identical twins.

“I don’t know… that’s something I can’t really decide. This place is crowded and other students will look at you two since you’ll be out of place.” You said reluctantly.

You’d have to do your best to dissuade them, sometimes they were too dependent on your presence.

“We’ll be fine. We can find a more quiet place to eat lunch-” Aldous said.

“Where no one can see us!” Catherine finished. “Oh please please-”

“Please please please?”

You see the girls giggling, and their attention slowlying pinning on you like prickling needles. Resisting their dewy eyes were always a struggle.

>Yes, they were still young after all. [Favorable choice for: Angelus, Flamoura, Atsali, Eclipse]

You sigh. On one hand, you really should stop spoiling them so much. On the other… they were children, kindergarten to be more specific. When you remembered the dark and damp underground prison that you and your siblings once called home.

“Alright, I’ll meet you two in here during lunch ok?”

“Yay~!”

They hug you tighter, and you couldn’t help to embrace them, thinking of the dark cells, where the only light was from the crack of the floor above. The only clothes they had were some fabric with a hole cut in for their heads. You used to steal produce sacks and tuck your siblings inside the bag. They were so small back then, so fragile.

“Max?”

They weren’t even your actual siblings either. But that never mattered to you, not once. You needed them as much as they needed you.

“It looks like-”

“You’re gonna cry…”

“What?” You force out a chuckle. “Of course not, I’m just so proud of you guys. So proud. It’s liquid pride.”

Ah grox shit, you promised not to cry in front of them, and you managed to on their first day in school. Gotta change the subject.

“Today’s dinner will be your favorite, but only if you get to class.”

Their eyes sparkle as their mouth form to the loveliest smile in all of Terra.

“Really? AlrightMaxwe’llgonowbyewelove you!”

You don’t know how they can talk so fast in unison. Either way, you left for your class, fully aware of the attention you were getting. You entered your homeroom quietly and took your seat. The person next to you was…

>A guy in a… gas mask.
>A student dressed sharply, a model student, at least he looked like it, he didn’t seem the talking type
>A student who sported a bushy beard that you couldn’t help but admire. He was a squat, a minority of the Academy’s population

it's dwarf time

A student who sported a bushy beard that you couldn’t help but admire. Magnificently braided and decorated with gold. He was a squat, a minority of the Academy’s population along with other abhumans. You know Terra’s stance on them, but you fought along side them before, a squat by the name of Gimgu, he owed some money to some hive gangers and ended up here. He was tougher than a ceramite with a barbed tongue, and a golden heart.

“What yer lookin’ at?” The squat said. “You pike biting nose bawface?”

Emperor, you miss that man. He could break a stone but have the finesse to change a baby’s diaper. The class went silent, and ocne again all eyes were on you, including the primarch’s daughters. You didn’t know why, squats were just short-tempered. But so were humans.

“I like your beard.” You said simply. “That’s a bifur style right?”

His bushy brow was raised.

“How do ye knaw?”

“I met some squats in my time, I didn’t know what stronghold he came from though.” You chuckle. “You’re from League of Norgyr right?”

“Perhaps.” His stache bristled. “Why do you think that?”

“It’s the closest one to Terra.”

“Yer name?”

“If you want it, don’t you think it’s better to say your name first?”

There was a chill, for your classmates but not for you. You stare him down and the squat burst with laughter.

“HAHAHA!” The squat bellowed. “Yer not bad for a pansy.”

“Ad you’re rather tall for a squat.”

You both share a good laugh.

“Name’s Glimli of House Gloin.”

“I’m Maximillian Kolbe.”

You had your usual class, with two elective classes since your transfer and previous school credit was enough that you didn’t have to take all of the mandatory class. Your elective class was-

>Alchemistry
>Advanced Physics [Roberta, Remillia]
>Workshop [Flamouria, Atsali]
>Self study [Eclipse, Khutulun]

In terms of keeping good grades, Introduction To Melee was the best choice you got. It was an easy class to get a high grade out of not to mention it was a good way to keep an exercise. You did not like fighting, but that was when you were a forced gladiator. It was a relationship that you couldn’t really put into words.

The class was rather simple, but since it was the first day it was pure endurance training. Running, jumping, push-ups, lifting weights, it was easy to tell who was and wasn’t children of military personnel. Though what surprised you were the primarch’s daughters. They were even sweating. Not to mention why was Elyan here? You expected her to be in Advanced High Gothic or something.

Well, not that it was an issue with you. You, along with few others already finished your exercises. As if the lecturer expected, either you could take a break or go spar with someone. Some of the nicer students invited you over. You were proficient in all weapons, your choice of weapon was-

>Claws that would be attached to your fingers instead of your knuckles with bladed vambraces. That way you never let your weapon fall out of your hand
>Claws that would be attached on your forearm instead of your fingers and bladed vambraces
>Sword and shield, classic and reliable, a mix of good defense and offense saved lives.
>Two handed (sword, ax)
>Staff
>spear
>mace

You were always a practical fighter, and no weapon was more practical than the staff. If broken you could use it as a club. A spearhead is broken? Then it’s a staff. There were many applications of staff that you took the time to master of different kinds. Another reason was due to the fact that the staff was always available in the weapon rack. Not to mention, people really underestimate the staff.

Since others have already found a partner, you might as well get some practice in with the staff alone. You balance the staff in your hand then spin it a little, it was sturdy and perfectly weighted, as all things should be.

“That’s an interesting choice of weapon.”

You turn to see a student, and you were near six imperial fitus. He was a bit shorter but you knew to never underestimate anyone. You know who that was tooo, he was Julius Pius, the son of the Ollanius Pius. You now wish you didn’t pick up the staff.

“It’s practical.” You shrug.

“Well, it’s been a while since I got to practice with one, how about it? I’m Julius Pius, you’re the new guy right?”

You took his handshake and nodded.

“Yes, I’m Maximillian Kolbe.”

Saying no would just create more drama. You and Julius stand in the sparring pad. Julius twisrled his staff and you merely took a stance and waited.

Once the whistle was blown, the sparring began.

You held out the staff like a spear and charged. Julius grinned and sidestepped it, he spun his body along with the staff, and from the direction of it, his aim was obvious. You never understood the point of twirling like some fluttering cark. There was time when you should and you shouldn’t. You pivot your feet then-

>Kick him in the stomach before the attack connects
>Duck, then tackle him to the ground
>Grab the incoming attack, get close, then headbutt him
>Dodge then make a distance to try attacking again

>>5232619
>Grab the incoming attack, get close, then headbutt him

Roll d20 3 times, 1 success is enough. DC is 10 and with Gladiator background you get +5 modifier.

I'm trying this for the first time so please bear with me!

Rolled 14, 13, 16 = 43 (3d20)

do you mean 3 people roll 1 d20 or 3d20, in the first case take my first roll?

>>5232619
>Duck, then tackle him to the ground

All close combat is doomed to eventually become grappling may as well have it be in our favor, also his spear is way less effective if he is on the ground

>>5232794
Yeah, no point of not using d20 if there's gonna be no crits

You outstretched your hand with a slight bend to your elbow, the staff smacks your and it stung like a bitch. You ignored the pain as you gripped on the staff. It was years of fighting that made you let out a bellowing scream, you grab his collar and then dip your head back.

“By the thro-”

Your head collides against Julius’s face. There was a wet crunch as it happened. It was like watching a statue being pulled down. Julius swayed to the left, then stumbled to his right, trying his best to stand until his body took a dive. You catch his falling body then gently place gently down. There was a dull thud echoed in the gymnasium. Oh feth...

“That new guy just beat Julius in one move.”

“Holy grak…”

“Ouch.”

Coach Creed was rather indifferent about it, as expected of a war hero. That, and he also knew of your past. There was complete silence, then a ‘pfft’ that blew up into laughter.

“HAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAA ALL FATHER’S LEFT HAIRY TESTICLE OH HOLY GRAK THAT’S THE FUNNIEST FRAKKING THING I’VE SEEN ALL WEEK!”

Freya was laughing up a storm while Elyan was none amused by what happened. It was Coach Creed’s glare that shut her up.

“Not bad. Someone get him to the infirmary. What tare you gawking around for? MOVE IT!”

You didn’t get in trouble? Huh. It must’ve been a regular thing, this academy did have a lot of sparring clubs after all. Egeryone else began their exercises again.

“And Kolbe.”

“Yes Sir?”

“Fight strategically next time, brute strength will only get you so far.”

You nodded sincerely.

“Yes Sir.”

Your eyes widened, the two girls glanced at you then talked to one another. Something about sparring and you. Oh grak… Elyan and Freya with their practice weapon approached you, when they were close enough the two girls glared at one another.

“Hey, new guy.” Freya growled. “Between her and me, who do you think it’s worth for you to spar against?”

For Throne’s sake…

“I’ll take both of you on since both of you want me.”

Now Elyan had a scowl and Freya had a grin that’d frighten the hardiest gladiators. Freya’s grin, however, melted to a simmering glower, and Elyan’s glare was sharper than the blades of the Great Gorechild.

“Yer gettin’ cocky there, meat.” Freya growled.

“Arrogance is an insidious killer.” Elyan said icly.

“I’m trying to be practical here. It’s that or two of you decide and you two don’t look like the type to concede toward each other.”

They turned to Coach Creed, and his nod made their eyes widen. It was a mix of indignation, surprise, and confusion all in one go.

“Don’t go cryin’ fer yer mum after we’re done with you.”

Freya had a sword and an ax, while Elyan had a longsword. You stood on one side and they stood on another. Once the whistle was blown, it was on.

Your guess was correct, it was Freya that would make the first assault. With how wide the sparring area was, you simply ran around and dodged.

Freya was the hammer, and Elyan was the nail. A common tactic in two against one battle. Though their strikes… one would knock you out clean. It was all dodges or parries, a straight block had to be done sparingly. It was a game of two predators and prey.

“QUIT DODGIN’ LIKE A SCAMP!”

“Maybe you’re just too slow.” You taunt.

“Whaddya say!”

Their attacks and purpose were predictable, they were trapping you slowly into the corner. But you had one advantage, size. Bigger wasn’t always better. Freya begin her flurry of attacks, which meant Elya couldn’t find the gap to attack in between.

“He’s baiting you Freya calm yourself!”

“Shaddap and help!”

Another overhead chop, this time you took the opportunity and thrust your staff, it was a solid hit that stunned Freya. You took that opportunity to make space away from Freya. Then it was Elyan’s turn. Her attacks were precise and powerful, with pure control in every movement. You block the sudden kick and the force sent you to stagger. Damn it you had to-

Darkness.

You open your eyes and find yourself inside the infirmary. The last thing you remembered was a glimpse of Freya’s practice ax bearing toward you.

“You’re finally awake.”

“Yer pretty tough, I’ll give you that.”

You feel bandages on your head and a stinging headache, not to mention dizziness.

“What happened?”

“Knocked yer ass flat to the dirt and sent you flying like lobbing garbage!” Freya said with utmost pride. “How’s that for slow?”

“A force of a battle barge.”

“Damn right I am!” Freya’s grin widened. “Ye weren’t so bad either, you got guts at least. Beating Pius is a feat too.”

“Courage perhaps, recklessness for certain,” Elyan said disapprovingly. “It takes a special kind of arrogance to fight at a disadvantage.”

“That was pretty stupid of ya.”

Just think about it. Saying that it's experience is dumb. If it wasn't training, we certainly could have died.

THIS is more fitting. You gotta learn to fight unfair.

“A real fight to the death isn’t always fair. I’d rather practice in disadvantages than practice a fair fight.”

You said while looking up blankly.

“Sounds like from some cheesy vox-vid.” Freya said. “But I see your point. You’re something else new blood.”

“Hmph.” Was all Elyan said. "You've disappointed me."

They left the hospital room after that. After half an hour or so you were allowed to leave the infirmary. You enter the empty locker room to change and continue with your first day of school. By now, any time you walked around the students were either staring at you or whispering whenever you were around. You look at the parchment containing your schedule. Since you were a transfer your schedule was pre-made, an ‘academic tour.’Whoever made your schedule must not be good at planning.

The next class was self-study, meaning you’d be stuck in the academy’s library. It was the first day in school, there was nothing to study about. You enter the library from the furthest entrance and to the fifth floor, where nobody would be around since it was the third highest floor. Not to mention most took their self-study time at the end of their period to do their homework.

Surrounded by nothing but silence, it was finally peace at last. You pick up a random book and began reading it. Finally some peace. Until you heard some footsteps. Behind you was.

Quick question do you guys prefer some art that leads to updates that takes longer or no art at all and somewhat faster updates?

>>5233672
I think art should be used on important updates. It doesn't need to be *uber fast*, but having consistent updates is always good.

>>5233672
Same as >>5233674, art is appreciated but I doubt anyone is gonna cry if you want to push updates and there isn't as much of it. You did say this wasn't really a drawquest proper.

>>5233674
Agreed, the art is really nice, and I like the difference between it and the original WHH stuff but don't feel forced to make it.

No amount of words could describe the girl in front of you. A work of art, a miracle, a presence that brought comfort. Just what was it with you and meeting pretty girls? You weren’t made about it of course, who would be mad at having the attention of pretty girls after all?

“Ah, I didn’t know there would be someone else here around this time.”

Her voice was like flowing milk and honey, from the windows and the sunlight, it was as if you were watching a golden sunrise the way she glowed. Her porcelain smooth skin purer than snow, eyes like clear sky, and plump lips red and delicate as flower petals. You saw a glimpse of her folded wings as well.

“Oh uh,” FRAK, say something. “Yeah, my schedule is a bit weird since I transferred.”

“Oh you’re the transfer student!” She clasped her hand in excitement. “I saw your siblings in the courtyard they were so endearing!”

“Yeah they’re adorable aren’t they? It’s getting harder to say no to them.” You say with a chuckle.

“What are their names?”

“Aldous and Catherine, they’re abou- they’re seven years old.”

“Flam and I were watching you-” She blushed. “I mean watching you and the children that is. Flam and I. They really love you don’t they?”

Your heart swell with pride. You may be a modest guy, but when it came to your siblings it was a different story.

“They do, they’re the best little brother and sister I can ask for. I have a photo album on my mini-vox. Do you want to see them?”

“Yes please!”

You put your mini-vox on the table and scroll through. From the simplest slice of life photos to their formal pictures. You watched her smile and giggle.

“How come there aren’t any parents in the pictures?” Angelus asked innocently, then gasped. “Oh did I say something I shouldn’t have?”

“It’s alright.” You smile. “They passed away a long time ago.”

You see her wings droop.

“I- I apologize, it was still insensitive of me.” Angelus said.

“No really, it’s fine.”

“Does that mean you’ve been taking care of them on your own?”

“With the help of the Imperium’s social service.” You said.

“It still must’ve been difficult.” Angelus said.

“Heh…” You let out a hollow laugh. “Sometimes it can be. But that’s just how it is, I can’t bring my parents back so I need to be the best mom and dad I can be. They’re the reason why I can keep pushing on.”

“But… what will you do after that?”

You blink blankly.

“What do you mean?”

She hesitated for a moment but spoke again.

“After your siblings get jobs of their own, what are you gonna do after that.”

>Your answer was silence, because you never thought about that
>“I… I don’t know. What am I gonna do?”
>“I’ll probably still work and help them whenever they need it.”

Family was everything. Aldous and Catherine was the sole light in your life. Your reason for living and the reason you got up for the day.

“I’ll probably still work and help them whenever they need it.”

It was Angelus’s turn to blink.

“That’s it?”

You shrug.

“They’re the only family I have left.” You said simply.

Then there it was, the face of pity. It was an expression you were all too used to. You could only smile as her lips curved into a pitying frown.

“I…”

“Look, you don’t have to say anything or say sorry. This is the life I decided.” You said.

“But is it what you want?”

“It is. They have no one but me. I have to go, I’ll see you around.”

You went to another place to study. Eventually the bell rang and you went to your next class. It was third period

Finally some good fucking primarchs

A workshop class… seriously? You sigh, what is up with this schedule, whoever made this was probably the dumbest or the most chaotic person you’d met. The workshop was a dismal place to look at, grey concrete walls, steel tools and black desks. You take your place on the nearest work table. As students entered they began to form their own groups on the work table.

“That’s the transfer kid that arrogantly fough Lady Jonson and Lady Russ?”

“I heard he kicked Pius in the groin to win.”

“What a glory seeker.”

“Is he even from a noble family?”

You’d confront them, especially on the kicking in the groin part. You weren’t above that move usually, but not in a proper spar. But you held against it, you might as well not cause any more trouble. Whatever bolter and flame you’d deal with, you’d do it. You had worse after all. As the class begin to fill up the door suddenly opened after the lecturer entered.

“Flamouria I told you we’d be late!”

“Sorry, sorry! There’s still a work table open!”

And it had to be you…

“Hey there, I haven’t seen you before, I’m Flamouria!”

You swore your hand was going to be crushed in that handshake if not for Atsali’s intervention. You were standing through the safety rules, and you’d guess this would be what the class would be about. The rest was simple free time.

“So you’re the one who took on Ellie and Freya.” Atsali said. “You must be either the bravest or the stupidest person I’ve met. Though I admit, you lasted whole three minutes against them. That’s impressive.”

You felt the jealous glares on your back.

“It was luck, and I didn’t win.” You said simply then point at the bandage.

“If you did I’m certain you’d be caught between Uncle Leman and Uncle Lion to join either of their legion. I assume you don’t have more fight in you for the day?” Atsali said.

“I don’t think I can handle another concussion.” You said with a nervous chuckle.

“Then again…” Flamouria said. “It really is impressive! Ellie and Freya are unstoppable when they team up. I also saw you with your siblings, they’re so adorable. Family is a treasure that can’t replaced after all.”

“They are.”
