Malcador is the super-shaman and he created the emperor to be his semi-sentient glowing "i'm a fucking golden god" distraction as his whole theme for the past 30,000 years was to watch from the sidelines and habits like that are hard to break.
When "The emperor" went to talk with the Chaos gods, they could tell he wasn't a life form, as he was purely warp energy (he was Malcador's psychic projection, biomanced to have flesh, telepathy-ed to have a 'mind' etc) and thought he was an as-of-yet unborn Chaos god. So they all give him about 1/4 of their power on the promise of dominion over reality and the merging of the warp and the materium by his hand, and the return of their power when he becomes a chaos god.
In that instant he goes from artificial life form pumped up by one supercharged psyker to a being more powerful than any single individual Chaos god, still thinking he is who Malcador made him think he was.
Malcador is like "ahh fuck, let's see how this plays out" and his now uncontrollable golden plaything he has been using to control mankind is now actually in charge of mankind and an unknown quantity.
Malcador spends the next few thousand years in over his head, advising the emperor with his wealth of experience trying to help.

No, it's OP's fanfiction/speculation.
Space marine vs Jedi, who would win?
Discuss both singular combat and war between the two.
>>46004226
Space Marine. Jedi have died by droids, storm troopers, bounty hunters, and generally anything else you can think of.
A standard space marine would kill a standard jedi easily.
If it was Yoda vs a Primarch, a primarch would win still.
>>46004244
And Marines have died to Guardsmen and Gretchin.
So, Guardsman > Jedi?
>>46004226
Jedi win singular combat, since on average they're basically all psykers with power swords.
Space Marines win a war because they have actual logistics and dodging bullets is more difficult when the air is full of them.

The Anonimi Summery:
The Anonimi are a Multi-Clan/Tribe society, all of which have their own separated yet connected Hiveminds. All Anonimi in a clan, can hear whats going on in the Hivemind by “Lurking”, but not all can “Post”. Fully grown/recognized Anonimi can communicate with his clan's Hivemind as well as others through “Posting”.
Basically We're making the boards of 4chan, clans/tribes of a Tiny Species.
Here we go again, doing things better this time.
Ok, Anyone that's been here before knows what's what, but you don't know and If you're interested ask me and I will lay down some basic lore and junk that we've come up with till your curiosity is either satisfied or you become interested enough to stay.
Now that that is out of the fucking way, here we go. I've decided that I've been going about this the wrong way, that being said I'm going to try a different approach and see where it gets me/us.
The Anonimi
The Anonimi, who are better known by the larger races as "Those That Hide", and this is truer than they could ever know. In a world of magical wonders and arcane abominations, names have come to hold power over all beings to some extent and the Anonimi are no different.
An Anonimi's Identity means everything to them, it is what makes them unique amongst themselves, but it is also their greatest weakness. One that they hide to such an extent that they keep themselves "Masked" from one another with their amazing mental powers.
Within an Anonimi's brain is a special node that shields an Anonimi's Identity from birth to all but their immediate family. The " ?-field" hides everything about them from their gender and hair to their facial features such as their eyes, nose, mouth and ears. It even hides their hands and feet, making them appear as "points" so not even that can be used to identify them. The field even makes their foot and shoeprints appear as tiny pin holes in the ground so as to not even leave discernable tracks.
As they grow and reach matureity, the consicous connection to that node grows in strength until the ability to manipulate it manifest. It can allow certain features that they feel comforable sharing to be seen such as hair, facial hair and even certain facial expressions. It can also be used to let those they trust absolutely to see them as they truely are or even hide themselves from their family and friends if they so desired.
To have one's Idenity discovered is an almost garenteed death sentance for an Anonimi. For it give their enemies the power to utterly destory or enslave them. Their is almost no hope for them, unless they can someone change something so fundamental about them that their identity shifts into something enterly different.

As you can see in the picture shown, this has helped to resolve some of the issues from last thread and issues I had been thinking about in a very simple, lore friendly, and appealing way. >>45947199 →
It solves customization issues, I mean we can only do so much with clothing, weapons/tools and accessories, but this give us way more options.
The issues with spoopy skellybobs and senses are taken care of. While some of these things still need to be fleshed out sense wise because Anonimi probably have more than just the standard 5 because of their mental abilities.
This gives the hand thing a way to work. I can have a /fit/izen crushing something with his bare hands only for it to return to a thick point like normal after words. Hand gestures such as a thumbs up, an a-ok, or even flipping the bird is solved in a easy way.
If anyone else can figure anything else out that I might have missed here let me know but I think I made a huge leap in progress with this post.
Anything modern. It can be magic, cyberpunk, scifi, or something that looks like it could be from real life.

Daily reminder
So if the white scar praetor dies, does the cyberhawk go away?
Ok distinguished gentlemen and ladies of /tg/, I am in need of your assistance. Im holding a get together at my house for D&D, etc and i need ideas for what to feed my guests. Now, i make a mean chili but im sure that they would want something with a little more panache. any ideas for recipes? Also tabletop etiquette thread
Meat bread, see 1d4 Chan
Bourbon and coke if they're drinkers but that's a personal preference.
>>46003409
That actually looks pretty good. Got anymore ideas anon?
My mates are usually partial to pizza, soft drinks, alcohol and assorted snacks. From the mention of chili and the meat bread interest I gather you're looking to prepare something.
I'd suggest a ploughman's board, not the most /tg/ thing in the world but they're always good, sausage, cheese, Apple slices and branston pickle. It's traditional English/Irish fare and I've yet to hear complaints so far.
How would you modify the Curse of Strahd to make the BBEG an edgy tragicpretty girl in a short skirt?

Ever read Sailor Nothing? I'd change Strahd's backstory to basically that (and or Madoka Magika).
I actually wouldn't because turning the sad vampire into a sad teenaged girl is stupid, but if I wanted to make the change you're asking about, that's the way I'd go about it.
We're just waiting for the corridor here. Talk about stuff, organization, etc, nothing canon is likely to occur.
