I have recently "aquired" some information from an eldar "guest" in one of my research stations, and he or she, well it doesn't matter, has given me some information about where it's from.
How about you acolyte Anon give me a run down of the answers I got from my questions?
Let's start with the first question I asked:
When was the Craftworld First Encountered by the Imperium?
>1d10
Some time after the Dune-times but before Horus Heresy?
Rolled 4 (1d10)
>>43773889
Alright, let's do this
>>43774524
Yes, it told me that it came in contact with the Imperium around 4-5.000 years ago. That means it came in contact in around M35.
How about the next question acolyte? The one where I asked how it's home was? Since I know the Eldar are quite keen on putting planetairy elements inside thier ships, so what kind of biome had the craftworld?
>1d8
Rolled 4 (1d10)
>>43774649
Ugh, hated that question. It kept making such a noise during intelligence acquisition, and I didn't have bionic ear implants back then..
Here's the relevant data slate entry, sir.
>>43774796
It seems thay hade plains as thier biome. If you ask me acolyte I think it's rather "plain". You have my permission to laugh at my joke acolyte.
Anyway, moving on. After a few hours of "talking" I think we came into the subject of professions amongst our two races. But I just couldn't remember what it said that the majority of the xenos on it's craftworld was doing. Can you please look through the logs on the data slate to see which path is most popular?
>1d10
>>43774857I wonder why my name disappeared?
Rolled 6 (1d10)
>>43774857
Apologies, sir. I must have inadvertently muted that subroutine. It wouldn't do to laugh during the recent visit to that shrine world. Most solemn.
I shall reset it.
+++Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!+++
Oh good. It is working. Personal database entry 3324.8 I believe? Redirecting to main monitor now, sir.
>>43774947
Thanks for reminding me that Mariner was the most common profession on it's craftworld. I must write it down in my future notes if I ever encounter it's craftworld myself. By the way acolyte can you take a quick look through the archives and go to section B/3-C and find information regarding what we manage to "persuade" the eldar in giving out How much military strength can the Craftworld muster?
>10
>>43775049
>1d10*
>>43775049
One secon-retrieved. Took significantly longer than the other questions to have this one answered.
Disappointingly vague answer, would prefer additional data if sir is planning on entering combat scenarios with the craftworld.
Sending over relevant transcript. Full transcript in datalink.
Sorry it seems to be just me.
>>43775526I am just happy that anyone is here at all
Rolled 8 (1d10)
>>43775600
>>43775526
And I forgot to actually roll. Fuck me with a mechadendrite. Er, sir.
>>43775526
>>43775676
No worries acolyte, everyone makes mistakes, well besides me, the high lords of terra, the Emperor and the Adeptus Astarties.
But it looks like they craftworld has nominal strength, i'll have that noted in my personal logs. Did it say anywhere in the same file if they used any prefered tactic?
>1d18
>>43775738Again with my name going missing!
Rolled 18 (1d18)
>>43775738
Here's the file, sir.
>>43775738
Well, acolyte, I want you to go to the mind scrubber after your shift is over in order to erase your memeory of this moment when I made a mistakeit's a d8 not a d18. Sorry for the typo
Rolled 7 (1d8)
>>43775738
+++Addendum: neither does the Glorious Machine God or it's many Spirits+++
Apologies sir, momentary distraction. That should have been muted. My vox implant's spirit can be overly talkative.
>>43775863
Ah yes, I remember when we caught it. I think they used show and awe tactics in order to attack us, too bad I outsmarted the foul xenos. Well, moving on!
From another round of "talking" with our "guest" I think we got an answer to what type of troops or forces that are most common on it's craftworld. Can someone play the vox recording of him uttering what it was?
>1d10
>>43775936
Playing on shipboard vox. Personal one is.. misbehaving. Will enact Rite of Lazarus later in my quarters.
+++Playing:interrogation-E_3-12:35+++
...wait. It is a male?
Rolled 4 (1d10)
>>43775936
great thread so far.
>>43776024
>>43776048
Yes, I think it muttered something in the line of "Aspect Warriors". And to be honest acolyte, I do not know if it is a he or a she. You may by all means find out for yourself. I have it locked up in cellblock 4T/Gamma on level 3. But please, do it only during your own spare hours.
Next question!
Can someone rewind the vox to 08.43 hours. I think it also said something in the line of:
"A perticular warrior aspect is very popular amogst my kin"
This was of course after I had injectim him with a harmless but intoxicating venom of the Merox vasp.roll a d10 for Which Warrior Aspect is most popular on the Craftworld.
Rolled 1 (1d10)
>>43776158
I got it sir!
>>43776199Dire Avengers is the most popular warrior aspect
With the toxins still inside of it's blood stream I also got some information about the craftworlds history, namley thier figure of legend. Acolytes, can you go to the databank and tell me what answer the xeno gave me?
>1d10 for craftworld hero
>>43776296Sorry for the massive spoiler text guys, I didn't mean to
Rolled 10 (1d10)
>>43776158
Please sir, I am not a biologis. I have little interest in xeno morphism aside from where it impacts wargear performance on them.
Odd that they have many mariners but focus on infantry. Troop carriers? Fleet used in nonmilitary scenario? Mining perhaps? Must have a use for large ship numbers.
>>43776296
Sir, I am aware that whispering menacingly and facing the screens that show the infinite void would look impressive for any watching, but it is difficult for us to hear your orders.
Rolled 3 (1d10)
>>43776296
>>43776318
Shall I strike that mistake from my memory banks as well sir?
>>43776359
It said that thier hero was a specialist of some kind (Ranger, Pathfinder, etc.).
But I think due to some outside interference they audio became a bit..bad. So can someone pull up the written logs from the scribe servitor that was present during the "talk"?
>1d18 for deed of legend
Rolled 15 (1d18)
>>43776441
>>43776441fuuuck, I did it again, sorry guys it'sa d8, not a d18
Rolled 8 (1d8)
>>43776441
Why do we even have an eighteen sided die?
>>43776848
This, "legend" must be really dangerous, since apperantly it took out a hive tyrant alone in a single combat. But while saying all of this it also said what type of force they where "allies" with for the time being. But knwoing how the Eldar scum works then I guess they are going to throw them into the meat grinder. I need someone to fetch me file labled "Possible Eldar ally" And bring up page 433, section 7, paragraph 12
>1d8 for craftworld allies
Rolled 1 (1d8)
>>43777066
+++File(s) located+++
Hush now little spirit! The good Inquisitor doesn't need to know every little thing you or your brethren are doing.
The file should arrive momentarily, sir.
>>43777196
Seems like the Orks have somehow struck a deal with this craftworld. But I think just a page or two over there should also be thier most fought enemy. Who are they again?
>1d10 for the craftworlds enemy
>>43777241
+++File loca-
Muted. Really now, you have been overly mischievous all day haven't you? Haven't you you cute little machine spirit.. Oh. Um. Yes. On the bridge, talking to you sir.
Can't say I'm surprised at their "nemesis". Eldar do seem to make them easily.
Rolled 2 (1d10)
>>43777298I swear I'm normally good with dice.
>>43777322
Well it seems like our good o'l guardsmen are giving them a beating from time to time. That is good news.
Now I have other matters to attend to, so can one of you acolytes just, you know collect all of this into a file and go through of what we know from top to bottom?
>>43777369
+++Reconnaissance/Interrogation Mission: Craftworld 4BH-O+++
Craftworld was first encountered in M35. Around the The Nova Terra Interregnum.
Craftworld is based around a grassy, plains-dominated world.
Mariners is common path for Eldar citizenry. Those who pilot and maintain ships.
Craftworld maintains decent numbers. Not enough to be overpopulated, not to few as to have shortages.
Military prefers to use Aspect Warriors of the Dire Avengers in Shock and Awe tactics.
A hero arose as a Ranger/Specialist/Other. Translation was not perfect. Subject was not in best of health at this point.
"Hero" came to prominence due to the slaying of a Hive Tyrant. Current status as yet undetermined.
Craftworld currently manipulated a number of orks into performing dangerous or undesirable work. Often clashes with Imperial Guard.
Acolytes and above are free to add/amend details of this report based on findings. Administratum transmission will proceed once report has been finalised.
Praise be to the Man-Emperor of Mankind
+++and the Glorious Machine God.+++
