Greetings, Acolyte. Noosphere reports indicate that you have been searching our Dataspools for information on an obscure Xenos specimen. By the will of the Grand Magos, I have been sent to assist in your investigation. Here on Core Xi, we possess information on the Biologis and Xenologis of many species encountered over the millennia, many of them rendered extinct by the might of the machine and wisdom of the Psalm.

I do not expect an Acolyte uninitiated with augmentations to possess the viewpoints necessary in the efficient extraction of such obscure data. My experience in the matter will no doubt prove useful.

Now, let us begin by refining your search. What form of creation does this species originate from?

>Natural Evolution; the result of random mutations and adaptation within a naturally occurring biosphere
>Artificial Guidance; the result of a natural race being experimented on, or having their evolution guided by an intelligent force
>Engineered; the result of experimentation or design, this race has its origins in the advanced laboratories of its creators
>Other (Specify); often pure accident, such as Immaterial breaches breathing pseudo-life into otherwise inanimate beings, or perhaps a race of purely Warp-borne Xenos

you have much to learn young one, but with persistence and cunning you may yet move beyond being a mere shitposter and become a true troll.

>>
>>45500361
dice+1d100
>>
>>45500383

Options field my friend
>>
>>45500368
Take 6 abilities for small/medium creatures, 8 for Large creatures

Ok. Now let's roll 1d35 at a time untill we hit either our 50p point limit or get 8 abilities
>>
Rolled 4 (1d100)

>>
Rolled 20 (1d35)

>>45500401

Sounds like a plan
>>
Rolled 15 (1d100)

>>45500398
yes, thank you, finally got the right one! do carry on!
>>
>>45500412
Lure ... (4p)
The creature counts as having Defensive Grenades. In addition if assaulted it always strikes at Initiative 10 for the first round of combat.

Ok 46p left, gimme another 1d35!
>>
Rolled 20 (1d35)

>>45500444
>>
>>45500461
re-roll, or I just pick from the next anon that rolls
>>
Rolled 30 (1d35)

>>45500461

Oops, let's try that again, unless that counts as a better Lure?
>>
>>45500490
Resilience (5p)
Roll an additional d3: 1-Solid Slug, 2-Heat Based, Energy-Based
>>
Rolled 3 (1d3)

>>45500532
>>
>>45500547
Energy based. It will now get a 4+ invulnerable save against: lasguns, laspistols, hellguns, hell pistols, pulse carbines, and pulse rifles.

41p left. Keep rolling!
>>
Rolled 7 (1d35)

>>45500532

And the next Ability roll
>>
>>45500587
Defensive Maneuve (3p)
If the creature does not move or charge during its turn, it may gain a +2 to its armour save. Though it may not make attacks in the assault phase if it chooses to do so.

38p or 5 more abilities to roll!
>>
Rolled 10 (1d35)

>>45500614

Well these things became a nightmare for the guard and the tau
>>
>>45500639
Duplicating Attack

If the creature causes two or more casualties in the assault phase then roll a D6, on a 5+ place an replica of the creature within 2" of the first. This new model now counts as engaged in combat. The new creature has the same profile and abilities as the original, excepting that it has only one wound on its profile and it does not have the duplicating attack ability.

The cost for duplicating attack is 10% of the total cost of the creature that has purchased it.

4 more abilities to roll!
>>
Rolled 15 (1d35)

>>45500671

The lord of change really likes us
>>
>>45500725
Fission (6p)

When the creature is reduced to 0 wounds, the model splits up into smaller offspring, placed within 2". These offspring have the profile of a small creature but have share no abilities in common from the original creature other than the form of locomotion. Medium creatures split into two offspring, Large creatures split into three.

Only 3 left now!
>>
Rolled 7 (1d35)

>>45500746

I like this a lot actually
>>
>>45500812
re-roll, we already had that result
>>
Rolled 31 (1d35)

>>45500823

Fuckin
>>
>>45500835
Rush Attack (7p)

on the turn it charges, the creature may sacrifice all its attacks to inflict a single attack at +3 Strength AP4 attack. If a vehicle is charged but the creature fails to glance or penetrate its armour while using this ability then it suffers an automatic wound with no saves of any kind allowed.

2 left, we are close to finishing it!
>>
Rolled 18 (1d35)

>>45500855

Home stretch, I am actually buying these things being terrifying now
>>
>>45500876
Horns/Spiky (5p)

The creature has the Furious Charge special rule.

Ok last one to roll up now. Make it count Anon!
>>
Rolled 23 (1d35)

>>45500903

Big money, no whammys
>>
>>45500920
Musk (6p)

Enemies suffer a -1 initiative penalty Initiative when in base to base contact with this creature.

Ok, give me a few minutes to write down this Xeno
>>
WS 4, BS 0, S 5, T 6, W 1, I 1, A 2, LD 10, As 6+

Cavalry

Special rules:
Horns/spiky, Musk, Rush Attack, Fission, Duplicating Attack, Resilience (energy based weapons) and Lure

61p

Ok that's it for this creature, but I think we should increase it's wounds atleast with +1. What do you guys think?

Also here is the 1d4chan page for all the special rules https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Warhammer_40,000/Chapter_Approved/Creature_Feature

Now let's fluff this Xeno out!
>>
>>45501071
It's not sentient, right?
>>
>>45501112
it's a xeno beast so yea it's not sentient
>>
>>45501071

1 more wound definitely.

As far as the fluff goes we're dealing with a large, feathered, quadraped, that reproduces asexually and when it dies splits into smaller versions of itself. When it attacks it can make another one of itself so it is really making use of that copying ability
>>
>>45501071
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!!!!!
WHAT IN FUCKING FUCK IS THAT?????????
srsly, tho - nice critter, boys!
>>
Obviously is connected to the Changer of Ways, especially since we're sitting in Chaos held space. Since we are not sentient and not domesticated I am guessing that these are tied up in creature trade and probably are used in gladiatorial fights, maybe a sorcerer or two has one as a pet/mount.

What would it be like to fight one of these things?
>>
>>45502219
Disgusting probably
>>
>>45502219
I kill it, more appear. It killed my friend, more appear? Wtf why is it charging my rhino?
>>
The planet is Asuran III, a rocky world littered with rocky spires, locked in an eternal warp/thunder storm. Avian in decent this Xeno later lost it ability to fly but readapted well to life on the surface. Given the dark and storm it developed a keen sense of smell to track it's prey
>>
>>45502817

A blind quadraped with vestigial wings, after being grounded when a warp storm decided to hang out of the planet for a while. I am imagining a brightly colored bat creature if it hasn't been able to fly for centuries. The spines are still coming off the joints on it's forelimbs but it no longer has the skin used for flying.
>>
cool to see people using my charts lol
