"In The Grim Darkness Of The Far Future There Is Only War" Warhammer 40k is set in a Universe where no one is safe from the horrors of space. The Imperium of man struggles to hold its borders or protect its citizens from the the alien, the mutant and the heretic. The human race is no longer a progressive race, most of the weapons and vehicles they use date back to the "Dark age of Technology" long before the days of the Emperor. Technological advance is at standstill and much has been forgotten, never to be recovered. In this dark millenia danger lurks behind every corner, and it is the holy duty of the Inquisition to guard and purge the threats within and without the Imperium. Take the role of Malachias Kane, Young Inquisitor under the command of Lord Inquisitor Dante, warring agains the notorious Chaos sorcerer Bathomeos. It is your mission to rendevouz with allies, and deliver the final piece to the plan to bring the Chaos scum under the Emperor's hammer.
Hello all!
This is the beginning of SkethyWeek as we present some character concept art for the mod.
I think it is time to give face to our hero and so I present you: Inquisitor Malachias Kane
New page from my sketchbook tomorrow!
That is one awesome looking concept art
Can't wait to see him in 3D !
Excellent start !
He looks nice!
Though I have to wonder what kind of inquisitor you are going for? A radical that uses Psyker abilities or a puritan that forbids them and uses his might and authority to full effect.
For looks wise, I suggest deciding what armour he will wear then add the coats/accessories/wargear. Otherwise I like the pose and the more fanatical look he has.
Emperor Protects.
This is the Acolyte right? I wonder how the Inquisitor looks like!
This is the Inquisitor you play with Zhika. this pic is him having a really bad day, like those in our tale. ;D Fierce look and array of weapons are a result of days of intense fighting for his life.
And as for what kind of an Inquisitor he is, as he is still very young and new to this bussiness time shall tell. He hasn't been an Inquisitor for more than a decade and before that served his master Lord Inquisitor Victor Dante on his crusade against the dreaded Chaos sorcerer Bathomeos.
Kanes life long service proved him worthy of the rank of an Inquisitor and this conflict between Dante and Bathomeos is what our tale is basicaly about as the crusade is coming to a end as Dante is gathering forces for the final assault against Bathomeos.
As Dantes second in command Kanes current task is to gather up some allies but he ends up in a fierce battle against an unexpected enemy.
Wargear wise, this is what he has and you'll understand why, when you play. His basic gear is along the lines of his sword and revolver, his coat and bodyarmor beneath it and his I pendant, the symbol of office hanging from his neck.
The blade is a gift from a Space Marine sergeant Kane saved and the revolver a heirloom of his family, tracing back over ten generations.
The coat is weaved of extremly though materials and is armored and thoughened to offer more protection with the body armor beneath it. And the last piece is the -I- pendant, for it is incorporated with a refractor field generator. Arcane technology very suitable for an Inquisitor I think.
Hello, Zakathius! Thank you for the double confirmation, but I already suspected our Player Character would be an Acolyte ( "young Inquisitor novice" ). But besides my reply to your statements, I would like to suggest that you add what you have written here to the Summary page ( makes the newcomers not have to browse through every single picture reading comments, like I did! ).
Also, your choice of Wargear for the Inquisitor is excellent! I will very much look foward towards utilizing them. Thank you again for your time!
Thanks Zhika. Ill update the summary soon, thought about it this morning as I uploaded the latest sketch, but never got into it.
