Recreated Weapons
Nearly all of these weapons had some kind of
spiritual power to them, and were sealed in a
vault behind heavy psy-warding. There is an
almost… storybook quality to their design, as if
they were conceived by artists, and not
weaponsmiths. The origin of the “Recreated” title
affixed to them by Beau is unclear.
Techpriest Marktwelve and
Psyker Sophistus are still in disagreement
whether or not this dusty tome is a miracle of
archaeotech or some kind of abominable warp
device. The text inside is unreadable, but appears
to be able to spontaneously generate weapons out
of thin air.
We had thought this to be a
mundane stub revolver, until we test-fired it and
nearly brought a wing of the museum down. The
bullets it fires are some kind of miniaturized
graviton warhead, and flicking the weapon’s
hammer appears to activate an “overcharge”
function of remarkable power.
From the desk of V.A. Beau:
“My Astropaths claim this pretty little ornament
hides a remarkable and dark power. I, however,
am of the opinion that something so frilly and
covered in hearts could not possibly be evil.”
This massive, excessively
ornate gauntlet, decorated with a huge xenos-
skull, hides a potent Force weapon, or so claims
Psyker Sophistus. Curiously, it seems to manifest
purple electrical discharges when used.
My weapons experts
claim this bizarre joined staff has a mind of its
own, and seems to have a real knack for attacking
from unexpected directions. We are still unsure,
as with so many other pieces of equipment here,
whether this is a psychic effect or the result of
some unusually potent machine spirit.
stored alongside the Cosmi Chevalier, and merely
being in its presence fills one with hope and a
desire to secure a future for humanity. Chaplain
Croesun insists it is some kind of holy relic,
though I am not wholly certain.

From the desk of V.A. Beau: “I had From the desk of V.A. Beau: “A sword

nightmarish piece of what we presume to be
xenotechnology- though it appears to be a simple
piece of wood, painted black with a red stripe
down the middle, it conceals some kind of
nanotechnological ‘micro-chainblade’. Truly a
weapon capable of unleashing remarkable
bloodshed.

All of our personnel

have reported sudden feelings of dread or betrayal
emanating from it, and Psyker Sophistus claims it
has a particularly potent anti-psychic aura. A dark
and accursed thing.

This blessed piece

was
Dust Weapons
These truly bizarre arms are as colourful as they
are deadly, and were indeed coated in a thick
layer of dust when we found them in one of the
underground storage facilities on Animuu’s
northern continent.
I cannot imagine the kind of martial arts that
would have to exist to justify the use of weapons
of such unconventionality. One cannot deny they
have a certain stylishness to them, however.
 A massively impractical combat
scythe also equipped with a surprisingly potent
long-las. It seems to be designed such that the
scythe blades allow the weapon to be braced,
though why anyone would bring a sniper’s
weapon into a melee is beyond me.
A curious cleaver-like sword,
connected to an integrated monofilament line,
connected to a powerful little autopistol firing
some kind of hallucinogenic dart round. This is
clearly technology of Human make, but
something about it feels dangerously Orkish.
I had always been under the
impression that ballistic gauntlets were
assassination tools, but clearly, I stand corrected.
These reinforced power gloves are also equipped
with a set of shotguns firing incendiary buck.
This particular weapon showed
signs of extensive reconstruction and repair. It is
a double-ended spear with an integrated combi-
autogun, which despite its shape sits surprisingly
well in the hand.
A round shield, equally
battered as the javelin that goes with it. Despite
the colour scheming, I find myself reminded of
certain ceremonial weapons favored by the
Ultramarines, or the shield generators employed
on Tau battlesuits.
From the desk of V.A. Beau:
“Elegant, simple, utterly unrestrained, and a
pretty shade of pink to boot. Who knew that a
grenade launcher and power hammer would go so
well together?”
I have seen weapons such as
these before, wielded by hive nobles looking to
impress the credulous. The blade should utterly
ruin the pistol’s balance, and vice versa, and yet
somehow, they work. The flechette rounds these
weapons fire are capable of a remarkable degree of
area saturation- is this indicative of some kind of
technological cross-pollination with Eldar
shuriken weaponry?
This elegant, flowery duellist’s
rapier has some kind of integrated revolving
cylinder mechanism built into the base-
Techpriest Marktwelve speculates it may have
been part of a larger combiweapon, but there is no
evidence of parts having been removed. It is
intensely psycho-conductive, however.
For once I see the
logic in this weapon- if some upper hive armourer
were to gain access to the plans for such a
combination of weapons I have no doubt they
would sell well on those worlds where nobles
traditionally carry blades. The sword’s heavy
sheath can be unfolded into a bladed shield, or be
left on to convert the small sword into a much
larger and significantly heavier two-hander. A
clever conceit.
Trick Weapons
Techpriest Marktwelve Data Log: “Logged weapons
discovered alongside cache of xenos and mutant
trophies, including severed heads, limbs, etc.
Weapons designs originate from culture with
clearly high degree of skill in metallurgy and
mechanism design. Evidence of STC-derived
manufacturing techniques unclear. All weapons
suffer from significant surface corrosion.
Conjecture: These weapons have shed the blood
of ancient and terrible beasts.”
This ‘weapon’ is little more
than the dessicated forelimb of some monstrous
xenos creature, which still twitches with
preternatural life. Just holding it caused me a
sense of deep physical revulsion, especially when
hitting a nub of gristle caused it to spring open
and whip around, its claw flailing wildly.
We found these in a heavy
ceramite case covered with blessings and
benedictions. From what I have pieced together
from Beau’s writings, these daggers were carved
from the bones of some Chaos-twisted
monstrosity on a frontier world in the depths of
the Expanse, and drive their wielder mad with
bloodlust. The depths of the Rogue Trader’s
heresies grow ever blacker.
A massive cleaver, equipped with a
switch that deploys it into a huge flail or whip.
What monstrosities did the people who made
these weapons expect to fight? There are still bits
of dried viscera stuck in the serrations.
 From the desk of V.A. Beau:
“The hunters said this was an archaic relic, from
the first days of their endless war against the
beasts. It is a quick and elegant thing, despite its
age- lead with the scimitar edge, then collapse it
down into a shortsword to get inside the enemy’s
reach.”
A sword of unusual metallurgy.
Marktwelve claims it rivals Lathe-wrought
weapons for weight. It splits from a shortsword
into two daggers when activated, and the speed
with which even a layman can attack is
staggering- as if nothing is there to slow the arm.
Came even more heavily protected
than the Bone Dagger, for good reason- even I
could sense the touch of Chaos from it. The very
air around this spiny, monstrous-looking mace
stinks of gore and iron, and according to the
accompanying label it is necessary for the wielder
to sacrifice their own essence to make it stronger.
By the Emperor, where did Beau find these
things?
Techpriest Marktwelve Data
Log: “A compact blast furnace built atop the head
of a striking weapon. Simple and devastating.”
This obviously ancient
sword is made out of the same ultra-light material
as the Merciful Blades. It comes with a detachable
folding haft- a few quick movements and it
becomes a scythe of tremendous reach.
Marktwelve claims its construction is more
primitive and personalized than the others, as if it
was some one-off construction by a single
tradesman.
From the desk of V.A. Beau: “It draws
upon the user’s very essence! Oh, the genius of
the east, that could turn plain steel into an edge
sharper than a soul. This blade- this curved,
simple thing- is the bane of any enemy. I think,
sometimes, I hear it calling me.”
I almost mistook this for a piece of
damaged architecture when I stumbled across it,
for it resembles little more than a sharpened
sword-sized metal spike. The trigger converts it
into a long war pick, with a wickedly sharp tip
that is surprisingly good at cleaving through
armour.
Techpriest Marktwelve Data
Log: “Weapon consists of twelve pounds of
wrought iron with a handhold on one side.
Exceptionally good for hitting things with.”
One of the armsmen picked this
up bare-handed despite the warning labels,
claiming the blade spoke to him. Before we
gunned him down, he claimed the glowing blade
wanted to guide him to greatness, and managed to
project some kind of warp energy blast from the
blade.
It is no wonder Beau was so dissolute, if he kept
such Chaotic relics so close to him. I cannot help
but wonder if the Ordo Malleus should be
contacted.
A remarkably powerful piece of
clockwork is at the heart of this brutal spiked
club, which unfolds into a spinning circular saw
blade on the end of a haft. I shudder to imagine
what combat with such a weapon would
resemble.

The technological standout from

the ‘Trick Weapons’, some clever internal
chemical reaction or mechanical generator creates
a brief but intense surge of electrical energy about
the head of this weapon when it is dragged along
a flat surface. Perhaps these hunters were more
technologically advanced than we presumed?

Beau seems to have taken quite a

shine to these weapons, as we have acquired more
than two dozen of them, each slightly different.
Their operation is simple- pull a lever and the
handle nearly quadruples in length, making them
effective in both close and open quarters.
 I am familiar with bladed canes but
this device extends the concept to a new level; a
twist of the handle converts into a curiously
serrated whip, no doubt capable of inflicting
horrific wounds. Clearly, this is of different
manufacture than the cleavers. It somewhat
resembles the Myrtle Rapier we discovered
earlier, though in this case the black powder

similar in form and function to the ‘humane’ would make for an elegant duellist’s weapon I

charge at the moment the weapon contacts the
target, driving a huge metal spike into it. That
said, I have never seen one wielded so it can be
punched with.

Of similar make to the Red

There is clear evidence that the
‘hunters’ had access to sophisticated gunpowder
technologies, so this weapon stands out as another
curios anachronism. Its springy blade splits in
half to form the arms of a surprisingly potent
longbow- though I cannot help but wonder how
much use a bow would be against enemies of any
size.
A monstrously twisted
woodcutter’s saw, which unfolds into a sort of
oversized glaive. These people had an
uncomfortable obsession with saws, I presume.
Blade, though not obviously corrupt in any way,
this two-bladed sword splits neatly down the
middle of the handle to become a matched
duelling sword and main gauche dagger. This is
yet another ‘trick weapon’ which would not be
out of place in a hive spire.
Chaplain Croesun’s Missives: “I take
the writings on this massive greatsword to be
some kind of holy inscriptions, though to what
blasphemous god they are dedicated I dare not
speculate. Though I am no master of the aesthetic
arts, I would presume this blade to have been
constructed by those who built the Pick and the
Mallet.”

The accompanying texts

claim this… thing is cursed. But how in the

metal that unfolds into a bigger, serrated hunk of
metal. The people who created this were mad,
desperate or possibly both.

Techpriest Marktwelve Data Log:
“Shield frame and decorative elements are of
human make, but ceramic ‘glass’ core is replete
with unidentifiable chemical compounds
indicating xenos origin. Device demonstrated
extreme thermal and electromagnetic dissipation
properties during testing.”
Chaplain Croesun’s Missives: “To
wield a living xenoform as a weapon? Heresy in
the highest! A blasphemy against the works of
man that turns the stomach! The very fact that it
draws so much power from the human form is
further sign of its innate malice and corruptive
effect on the soul.”
This appears to be little more than a
gravestone lifted from the earth with a
mechanism to attach the hilt of a sword. The
wielders of such tools were no doubt men of great
strength, but I wonder if their souls were pure?

Hunting Weapons
Xenographer Thripsus Reports: “As all of these
weapons appeared to be of human make, but were
composed of a huge varieties of xenos-tissue,
Interrogator Exxhi has asked me to perform the
examinations on them.
At first glance, I am amazed at the scale of these
weapons- whatever world they hail from must
either have significantly lower gravity or a much
stronger native strain of humans. A Death World
certainly- I find myself reminded of Catachan
hunting knives when looking at the hardware I’ve
been presented with. There are dozens of
individual variations, but I have categorized them
into 15 separate types.”
“These weapons were, aside
from their materials, generally quite mundane.
Merely a paired longsword and a shield cleverly
constructed to allow the user’s off-hand to remain
free in a fight. Most of them were composed of
xeno-materials designed to inflict poison or other
unpleasant side-effects upon an enemy.”
“The only thing in common
between all the paired blades in Beau’s ‘Hunting’
collection was their ferocity- these weapons seem
designed for pure offense, often with designs that
minimized protection for the hands while
maximizing striking power. Several of them also
took the form of a variety of bladed gauntlets or
claws- I’d imagine a wielder would take on a truly
devilish appearance.”
“I thought these weapons were
ornamental at first- they appear to large, too
rough to be called blades. One of our enhanced
Ogryn guards took a great liking to them,
however, describing them as extremely
comfortable to wield and even large enough to
block attacks.”
 Though more reasonably
proportioned than the Monstrous Blades, these
weapons are all longer than I am tall, and fitted
with curiously-designed sheaths made to
maximize the speed of the wielder’s draw. From
the shape of their tips, they seem designed
primarily for slashing over stabbing.
Unfortunately their length meant several of our
armsmen hurt their companions rather badly
while testing them.
“These extended polearms and
paired shields seemed designed for use by cavalry,
but we could find no design features that would
allow them to be braced against a saddle or
anything of the like. Still, they have prodigious
reach.”

“How one manages to swing a

mallet that weighs almost as much as a full-blown
human being is beyond me. As with the
Monstrous Blades, the Ogryns were quite taken
with these.” “I can only presume the
inhabitants of this world had some contact with
the Orks, for only they would be mad enough to
utilize a small-calibre howitzer as a melee
weapon. Most of the body of the lance appears to
be a complicated heat-dissipation or recoil-
absorption mechanism, made even more
complicated by the xeno-substances involved.”

“Many human cultures

bring musical instruments into battle with them,
but actually weaponizing those instruments
seems a little… excessive. They are all large and
heavy enough to strike nearly as hard as the
Monstrous Mallets, however.”
“I thought for a moment we
had run into another one of those gruesome ‘trick’
weapons here, but apparently, I was mistaken.
This overcomplicated axe/greatsword
combination includes a sort of… boosting system
in which a battery overcharges the latent effects

“This is functionally
identical to its lighter counterpart, save that it
lacks the capacity for rapid fire, appearing to be
designed more for shot-per-shot damage rather
than suppressing fire. Astoundingly, the recoil is
light enough that it can actually be fired from the
hip without serious injury.”

“I have read of various xenos

species using unusually-constructed bow weapons
of considerable power, but these bows, taller than
a man, beggar belied. They require gigantic
strength to even draw, but launch arrows several
meters long over extraordinary distances. A
clever sighting system even allows them to be
fired in high arcs- with a few minutes’ practice
one of our armsmen could reliably hit a man-
sized target three hundred paces away, though the
strain has permanently damaged his shoulder, I
believe.”
Hyperdimensional Weapons
Beau’s records on this section were surprisingly
complete, and unsurprisingly heretical. We
haven’t actually opened the bulkhead doors
leading to the “Hyperdimensional” wing of this
particular storage bunker, because the walls began
to drip blood and Psyker Sophistus had a fit as we
approached.
From the desk of V.A. Beau: “The heart of the void!
The Heart of the Void! All mankind’s glories and
sins, compiled in one place! Not a game, but a
whole universe! And they came armed!”
“Within its crystal blade the Planet-
Named One sealed daemon creatures from
beyond the Warp itself. Its purple glow- so sweet.
So worthy of a top protagonist.”
“The Changer of Ways gifted it
with terrible, remarkable luck. Its spirit is
mutable, indecisive, afire with an inability to
decide.”
“It appeared in the
catacombs one day, whispering sweet nothings.
With reverence, I approached it. Affixed to its
whirling surface was a note, in a pretty hand. ‘Let
us not be forgotten.’”
“Excess in everything. In victory,
in attack, in confidence. At the height of glory,
the user, she whispers, will make baseless quips
when striking the foe.”

“The colours! The lights! The
Sound! Every aspect shimmers! An unlearnable
weapon for the uninitiated.”
“They say the blood god prefers
his weapons with an edge, but blunt force trauma
causes internal bleeding, does it not?”
“Oh noble needle, how sweet is
thy sting! A single strike fills the blood with
surging poisons, and surging joy.”
“Even the Two Brutes tend to
their sick, but in ways that I cannot consider
‘safe’. What medical tool would need chain-
teeth!”
“Their great Gestalt empowers them,
but in the realm of the physical they are still flesh
and blood and bone.”
“A ragged doll that bends the will and
twist the mind of all who touch it! How
adorable!”
Encant Pistol
We found a single example of this strangely
elongated single-shot pistol, and Emperor be
praised have determined that not only is it
Human archaeotech, but it was built somewhere
in the vicinity of Terra, more than thirty
thousand years ago!

The weapon’s shells are each individually

numbered, and appear to function like
extraordinarily compact Vortex weapons,
triggering controlled Warp effects on impact. For
all that it is unbelievably stable- Sophistus
believes it might originate from a time when the
energies of the Immaterium were calmer and less
harmful. We have found quite a few of each type
of shell, but no evidence of shells numbered 1, 2, 7,
8 or 9.

Beau’s notes mention his

suspicions of other Encant
weapons out there, but
despite a thorough scouring
of those areas of Animuu
currently accessible to us we
have only found this solitary
example.
Illusory Weapons
I worry that our continued exposure to such
degrees of bizarre and heretical technology is
having a deleterious effect on our sanity. Many in
the exploratory party have reported strange and
vivid dreams. Only last night I dreamt… the
details are hazy, lord Inquisitor, but a voice
seemed to be calling me from a green and pleasant
land, which radiated a strange and primal energy.
I saw a phantasmagoric view of flowers, a
compelling subterranean animism. It is difficult
to describe. When I awoke, there was a ledger in
my hand- another one of Beau’s texts, describing
in fragmentary and confused detail the artifacts
he had recovered from a “Land of Illusions.”
The book’s first entry speaks of a
“miniaturized furnace”, a patterned octagonal
block of a strange and uncanny metal. Within it,
it is said, hums a limitless energy source drawn
from the gods themselves.
Supposedly, a magical text
belonging to a wise, powerful and very violent
sorceress. Curiously, the page it was mentioned
on was covered with crude sketches of tiny dolls,
wielding what could only be power weapons.
To think that a humble stopwatch
could scare a mind as twisted as Beau. This page
was ripped to ribbons, as if it had been hit by
many blades. Supposedly, the device can stop the
flow of time itself… and within the frozen time,
“a World of knives.” Whatever that means.
This entry makes even less sense
than the rest- while it is named similarly to Tau
fusion weaponry, the arm-mounted device
described could only be some kind of ancient
graviton weapon. Just who are the inhabitants of
this Land of Illusions?
And now it all becomes
clear- clearly this is a demoniac weapon, which
subjects its targets to horrific madness. Beau, you
fiend!
Another cursed Warp
weapon- this device fits the descriptions Psyker
Sophistus has given of the sorcerous powers of
Tzeentch. A weapon of merciless domination,
seeking to corrupt and enslave the minds of the
weak-willed.
So many of these treasures
of Beau’s seem to, for lack of a better explanation,
alter fate or probability. Certainly, he may claim
this weapons grants blessings and miracles, but at
whose expense?
Another curious spot of mundanity.
A long power sword of exotic make. One cannot
help but wonder just how far afield the patterns
for power weaponry has spread through the
universe. This is a classic main-hand weapon,
simple and brutally effective.
Clearly a smaller “main-gauche”
equivalent to the Roukanken. Beau mentions it
“cutting spiritual ties”, though what this actually
means is unclear.
nameless power what
nameless power at work and yet the page is both
blank and full of terrible truths WHAT DARK
POWERS ARE AT WORK HERE? It bears no
name…
A sick and joyous thing, as Beau
describes it. Something akin to the Trick
Weapons in its indiscriminate and savage
reaping.
To find an object described as
“holy” amongst this textbook of surreal madness
seems laughable. And yet, the sketches of the
patterns are unquestionably similar to devotional
artwork to the Emperor… I wish I understood.
The sketch of this weapon
was immediately familiar- I have seen it in
images of the mighty weapons of the Custodian
Guard who protect the Imperial Palace on Holy
Terra. What- what does this mean?
And then, on the very next page… a
plain-looking pipe, filled with an endless supply
of a mysterious drug. The Land of Illusions is a
land of madness and inconsistency.
Techpriest Marktwelve insists
that this is either related to or a descendant of the
pattern for the “Sollex-Aegis Energy Blade”,
whatever that might be.
And of course, after page upon
page of marvels and madness… an umbrella
which can fold space. I must confess to not
drawing the obvious connection between keeping
the rain off and punching holes in the fabric of
reality.
Revengeful Weapons
Techpriest Marktwelve Data Log: “Following
discovery of book of “Illusory Weapons”,
Interrogator Exxhi is taking several days of rest
leave aboard ship. I will step in for this catalogue.
These weapons are, thankfully, of Human make,
many with Machine Spirits that are both active
and well cared-for. Conjecture: does Beau
maintain access with some lost and
technologically advanced human colony?
Ripper Blade: Blade of high craftsmanship and
quality, with a machine spirit that delights in
unleashing its strength upon its enemies. I
confess to losing control of my scientific
objectivity and cutting several lab benches into
small pieces.

drawing. A novel concept.
Chainsaw Flail: Analysis: a dismounted servitor
weapon. A mono-edge chainflail of considerable
power and finesse, though much too dangerous
for human use. Handling of such a weapon by an
unaugmented soldier highly illogical.
Bloody Pincer: Notion of combat using a pair of
power-assisted shears utterly absurd. See ref: Ork

myself wanting to give them a chance.

Part 2: Armour

Though weaponry has formed the lion’s share of
what we have recovered from the various caches
and musea on Animuu, we’ve also recovered a
number of suits of armour, clothing and other
garments whose capabilities, proven or otherwise,
simply beggar belief.
Xenographer
Thripsus Reports: “The significantly higher levels
of xenofibre in these more customized suits
greatly enhance the wearer’s latent abilities. Some
of them have been modified to be truly bizarre in
form- they look more like sporting clothing than
combat armour!”

Living Fibre
We have found dozens of these white uniforms,
made of varying mixes of mundane fabrics and a
curious psychoreactive semi-living fibre which
Thripsus is derived from some form of Eldar
Wraithbone.

We’re unclear if these suits represent true Eldar

xenotech, or some form of human technology
upgraded with Eldar xenotech. Either way, they
come in a variety of grades.
We have only
These found a handful of this grade of armour, but they
contain a bare modicum of psychoreactive fibre, are potent weapons indeed, capable of shifting in

damage, and seem to enhance their basic motor
skills.
 Xenographer
Thripsus Reports: “Alas, we couldn’t find a
physical example of one of these suits in Beau’s
collection. His notes establish that only three of
them were ever made, and that they were
effectively living clothing, beings of more than
human intelligence- no doubt some equivalent of
an Eldar Spirit Stone, but composed of fabric
rather than crystal. Somewhat disturbingly, he
claims that they were fed on human blood- I
don’t suspect a Chaotic influence, but this
certainly brings to mind the decadence of the late
Eldar Empire.”
Psycho-Photonic Armours
Psyker Sophistus’ Journal: “Tiny jars of crystalline
sand. ‘Twas all they seemed. And yet, they draw
the energies from within. They harden the light,
yes. The very soul! A suit of armour, the power to
protect and crush with a whim! And they glow,
with all the radiance of the spectrum! Would that
Exxhi would permit me to wear the Psycho-
Photonic Armour again, though she claims the
risk of the Dragon is too great.”

“Yes, the Dragon… for evil lurks in the hearts of

men. We gave a vial to one of the
Astropathic Chorus, and he went
mad with the power, his once-
elegant Photonic Armour becoming
twisted with spite and rage. These
vials… they carry the seed of an
ancient anger.”
Reaction Armour
When Techpriest Marktwelve saw this device,
she nearly blew a gasket- if I’m interpreting her
excited babbling correctly, this is a truly
venerable piece of Old Terran archaeotech,
hailing from a legendary group of Magii calling
themselves the Darpa.

Not only is it a suit of well-made power armour,

it incorporates a massively overpowered plasma
reactor, reaction control thrusters that permit
truly uncanny mobility, and some form of
wireless MIU connection that feeds targeting
data from the suit directly into the wearer’s brain.

One of the armsmen tried it on and literally knee-

slid through a structural bulkhead without
suffering a scratch. Maybe
Marktwelve’s excitement is
justified?

Symphonic Armour and Weaponry
V.A Beau was known for many things- his
insatiable lust for treasure, his ruthlessness, his
odd obsession with stuffed animals, but this… this
is something new and unfamiliar.
The “Symphonic Armour” cache is a series of
seven suits of armour apparently designed for use
by female wearers. Marktwelve holds that they
are of Human make, though the technology
involved is so advanced as to be nearly
incomprehensible to the layman, myself included.
Apparently they use the harmonic vibrations
generated by the human vocal structure to cause a
warp fusion reaction which generates
unbelievable power via a sort of oscillating
structural integrity field…?
But really, powered armour driven by singing?
 Compared to the Ivaldi, this purple and white
armour is fragile, ungainly and seems to have
little to no power output. However, it has the
capability to bend light about itself in a way that
is eerily similar to T’au stealthsuit technology.

Whoever designed this blue suit had a clear

obsession with their own skills as a
swordsmaster. Every part of it is sharp and
finely-balanced. Curiously, it seems to have
undergone several… revisions? Marktwelve
claims there is evidence that the weapon has
either been rebuilt or heavily upgraded numerous
times.

This bloodred symphonic armour grants the

wielder the equivalent firepower of an entire
squad of Space Marines. It is quite fragile, though
This suit’s golden-yellow heat dissipation vanes it clearly packs a massive and very unsubtle
hide a massive powerhouse of a weapon- every offensive punch.
punch or kick the wielder makes strikes with
force greater than a Power Fist. The curious
design of the arm and leg units let it act as a
piledriver- a weapon for the unskilled, maybe, but
devastating nonetheless.

From the Desk of V.A. Beau: “A child in a pink

miniskirt throwing circular saws everywhere!
How droll!”
 From the Desk of V.A. Beau: “Beneath the pointed
green hat, an endless sea of scythes! Ah, two
hearts as one!”
Part 3: Stand Battles

We’re not quite sure what to make of the ancient,

ornate arrow we found atop a purple velvet
cushion in the depths of a long-forgotten storage
wing. It appears wholly mundane, though of
extraordinary age and craftsmanship. Sophistus
claims it possesses an aura that he will only
describe as “bizarre.”

Part 4: Martial Arts

Many of the books from Beau’s extensive

collection are neither heretical nor supernatural,
but simply refer to a vast array of strange and
exotic martial arts. Beau’s passion for combat is
quite striking, even if many of the examples
we’ve found seem… unfeasible.
