[i][u]The Unsung hero.[/u][/i]
Deep within the ship, a sphere of violet energy bubbles up, releasing within it a warrior.
[i]For thousands of years, he had wandered through this dark, grim Galaxy...[/i]
The shaded figure stood up on it's two large legs.
[i]And those thousands of years, he spent battling whatever the galaxy could throw at him. For every fight, a memento. For every army vanquished, a souvenir. For every enemy slain, redemption. Whatever the grim galaxy could push on him, he pushed back.[/i]
Slowly, he opened his four violet eyes, one of them being marked by a deep, searing scar. They scanned the darkness.
[i]He lived a life, once. Somewhere else, beyond this realm, this universe, this time. He was brought here against his will. But he wouldn't let that defeat him. If something had brought him here to destroy him... they had failed. It had only hardened him. Made him stronger.[/i]
The metal floor thundered as he stood up on his two heavy legs. Although milennia had passed, the man hadn't aged a day. He was stronger than ever, his muscles strong and lean.
[i]Eldar. Tyranid. Orks. Necron. Tau. Imperial. Chaos. He had fought it all. Sometimes alongside them. Sometimes against them. Never had he been thanked for his sacrifices. Some knew of him, of his legend. They had a nickname for him.[/i]
As he walked, he looked at his four arms. Two of them, made from Necron metal after having lost them in a battle. His arsenal varied, containing trophies taken from his enemies. From space marine armour, he had made himself new protection. From the Tau, he had taken ranged weapons. From the Imperial Guard, he had taken heavy weapons. From the sisters of battle, Inferno weaponry. From the Eldar, Mighty witchblades, and their strange eldritch magic. From chaos, psychic powers had been gained. From the Tyranids, the pincer of a Carnifex was shaped into a sword. And that, only to name a few.
[i]His body carried the scars of his long life of battle. But a life that never ended for him.[/i]
On his back, he wore a long, torn purple cloak, with a hood. It was once the banner of something. The only thing he had maintained from his other life.
[i]His nickname was given to him by his ability to wield any weapon for any situation, regardless of the matter. He always had something for everything always an ace up his sleeve.[/i]
They called him the Jack of All Trades. Traliks, the Fallen.
His eyes quickly settled to the darkness.
[i]"Hmm... a ship... ancient."[/i]
His English was without a flaw. Many years of practice will do that. He sniffed the air around him.
[i]"Hmph. Chaos. And by the size... this is definitely the bloodwrath. I don't know what Satirus wants with me, but he will only have dead lackeys to pay for it."[/i]
He grabbed his weapons.
In one hand, the lower left, he carried a Daemonhammer, weapon of the Inquisition. Thanks to his superior strength, he needed but one arm to wield such a weapon. In the lower right hand, his automatic heavy shotgun. How this ork weapon even functionned or held together, Traliks had no idea. But he had come to learn not to question Gork and Mork's mysterious ways. After all, it was thanks to it that he could carry all of his equipment.
In his upper right hand, a mighty Singing spear, an eldar double-headed lance and battleaxe, with its two split heads on each end.
And in his upper left, a Tau Ion Cyclic Raker. Devastating weapon against any foe.
Wandering the depths of the ship, Traliks, standing around the height of a primarch, his hooded cloak trailing behind him, expected anything to come at him.

[b]Vaaxius chuckles.[/b] "So how did you get all of this gear?"
-
[i]"I got it through the years."[/i] He carried his weapons, and wore nothing but Space marine armour over critical spots. Most of his legs and arms were exposed, letting her drool over their bulging musculature. Some parts of his chest was exposed too, letting her gaze into his chiseled abs. On his back was a strange pack without a bottom. Ork magic.
-
[b]Vaaxius stares at everything with awe, her eyes widening.[/b]
-
[i]"Each item I carry has a history of its own. A tale to tell. A legend... and now you're just staring at my abs."[/i] He chuckles. [i]"Can't blame you."[/i]
-
[b]Vaaxius softly rubs them.[/b] "They're so nice.... I mean what! I'm focused!"
-
He chuckles. [i]"They have been waiting for you. In all the milennia, I haven't touched another woman, promise! Although not for lack of them constantly trying..."[/i]
-
"Well if they try while I'm around. They'll get to see what the top of the ship looks like."
-
He smiles. He puts away his two lower weapons, picks her up and holds her to his height. [i]"I've missed you, Baby."[/i] He kisses her.
-
[b]Vaaxius kisses back, her lips still soft despite her looks.[/b]
-
Despite his hardened nature, despite being from another universe, his kiss tasted just the same as she remembered.
-
[b]Vaaxius melts into his arms, her eyes filled with joy. Even with what she was, she was still the same.[/b]
-
He put her back down on the ground. [i]"Glad to see you're still kicking, babe."[/i]
-
"And I'm glad you are too...."
-
[i]"You went through some changes, I see."[/i]
-
"Yeah, they weren't by choice though..."
-
[i]"I see... well, you still look like yourself. Which is good."[/i]
-
"I do?.... I don't feel the same..."
-
[i]"Well, no matter what you look like, you're still my baby."[/i] He smirks.
-
"Thank you, and you're still my hulking sweetheart..."
-
[i]"indeed I am."[/i] He chuckles. [i]"Love you, darling."[/i]
-
"I love you too...."
-
He put two hands on her. One on her back, the other on her butt, as they walked. [i]"So... do you have a camp nearby?"[/i]
-
"Yup, it's over there...." [b]Astrid points in the direction of the general quarters[/b]
-
He walks to it with her. [i]"So, have you made any friends?"[/i]
-
"Yup, a few too. There's is Kor'El.... Actually, you probably don't want to meet him...... There's this girl with wolf traits named Lupa.... I think I met a Daemoette queen who was pretty friendly, I can't remember though, too much booze.... That's it I think. Oh, and don't worry about this Daemoette, she's on our side." [spoiler]aka Vaaxius got smashed during the celebration and can't remember any of it.[/spoiler]
