Diary of Dr. Frankenfurter

21/09/05

We attacked a tzeentch warband at dawn this morning as they were about to steal a wandering beast from under our noses , there were so many of them with three , yes three accursed wizards!! Dark elves no less , what were these pathetic creatures doing here in the chaos wastes , no less their souls would be a tasty morsel for slaanesh ,she who thirsts savours them above all.

As we charged in the first of our spawn reached their lines , the pathetic wizard run for his life but was despatched by gavileros' pet.

The noxious seahorse did nothing again whilst the rest of us advanced under a hail of crossbows, one of their wizards attacked gavileros with magic but to no avail he shrugged off the arcane energies with a laugh.

The battle heated up with our beastmen tearing through some brigands as gavileros tore up the enemy with his fire stick , my absolute pleasure at seeing this weapon blow chunks of flesh and sinew from people was so intense that I almost forgot where I was till I attacked a mutated chaos warrior and stove in his skull.

The griffon spawn ripped up a few orcs then set about a centaur and two minotaurs no less! That beast is truly impressive .

The seahorse spawn stood a drooled a little more til it was torn apart by a raging minotaur, that bloody thing was useless , we will be better off without it.

My reverie and wanderlust was suddenly distracted by the same minotaur who had the temerity to attack me!

The battle raged on, the griffon spawn had finished the centaur and a minotaur, the other running like a welp that has been scolded ,then had dined on two more orcs .

This was going very well till a lucky blow from the minotaur knocked me out, I still hadn't managed to get used to my new tongue and had tripped on it, the last thing I saw as my eyes dimmed was gavileros in a rage over his beloved pets disembowelling a couple of dark elves.

I awoke to find the enemy had escaped and that we had lost one of our beastmen and the seahorse spawn , this was no great loss as only those that are truly worthy will survive.

The eye of slaanesh looked down on me and did indeed favour my endeavours , I was granted a fantastic gift of a demonic weapon , it whispers of its hatred of all mortal chaos followers and its lust for carnage (gains blade of hatred 2attacks for each attack on profile against hated foes)

Gavileros has become immense chaos does indeed fit him like a well worn glove he is stronger taller tougher quicker a real handful (gains 2 rewards both characteristic increases (STR+2 , T+2) and also mutates a bit more extra joints in legs and arms M+1 I+1).

Four humans join our band searching for glory and death so we are growing forwards we travel further into the wastes

The chaos wastes

Week 1 we arrived in the chaos wastes, as did many other war bands vying for their patrons favour.

We came across a terrified mule in a ruined building, it was good for us as we hadn't eaten meat for a while and the creatures and beast men were getting restless .

We decided to take it back to our camp when we were attacked by a band of goblins , orcs led by a dark elf sorcerer , the fools! Not allying themselves with a god would be their undoing.

It didn't start so well for us though the elf took down the harpy spawn with a fireball before we could react and the goblins wounded our amphibian , we went to attack with all our might , the beast men started to take the mule away for cooking , in the middle of the battle no less .

We moved to a better position all except the fish beast that stood and drooled a lot , I shall have to talk to gavileros about this later.

The goblins laid low the fish beast and their leader charged gavileros but could not hurt him, the orcs went to charge the griffon spawn but two decided to cheer on the other instead, the spawn was not happy this day.

Me I was lost in the cacophony of noise and injury and almost forgot myself.

The griffon spawn then charged into methistoluos and his mechanical steed and laid him low as well the chimera spawn strolled towards the goblins and two of the beast men decided that blood letting was the order of the day and left the hastily prepared lunch.

At this point I could no longer stand to watch my troops have all the fun and put pay to an orc with my trusty morning star, it was so satisfying to see his face split open when the spiked ball struck, I shall have dreams about this for a long time , the pleasure of my first real kill! The griffon spawn finished off the last orc and the goblins ran for the hills.

That night we ate the mule and offered slaanesh our sacrifices, I have changed yet again my face alters and my tongue has grown immensely it will serve me well, (gains reward face of a fiend) gavileros has now got a fire stick that kills from a distance! It's noise is like a thousand hammers on an anvil but louder, what kind of arcane weapon is this, do I care, not as long as he still serves me I do not (gavileros gains reward bolt gun)

gains reward face of a fiend
gavileros gains reward bolt gun

His pets were not killed but merely incapacitated which was lucky as gavileros was almost inconsolable, well almost, I can be very persuasive.

We move ever further into the chaos wastes in search of further prey.

Dearest diary, how did this all happen you ask, let me tell you a story, are you sitting comfortably then I will begin.

Many years ago my studies into medicine and mainly surgery gave me ample opportunities as a good doctor to operate on people, this gave me much satisfaction, so much so that I decided to join the altdorf lancers as a field surgeon, this was my first step.

One of my former orderlies, Gavileros decided to sign up as well, we made a good team did we, his natural affinity with animals was crucial to calming panicky horses with their stricken riders.

After about two years I began to feel different about the wounded, I wasn't bothered by their injuries, at first I thought I was becoming inured to the horrors around me, but it was more insidious than that, I was becoming to like the agonised screams it was like a symphony of angels caressing my eardrums.

A dying man will tell you his innermost secret upon his deathbed and I kept everyone!

It was at this time I heard the keeper calling to me for the first time, asking me of those secrets and promising wealth and power beyond my wildest dreams for the power those secrets held over the lost souls, what was I to do, for every soul I gave to the keeper I would gain her favour.

War is brutal and many men were brought to my tent for help, the screams of the dying were ecstasy for my soul so much so that I began to indulge in a little creative surgery to ease the life force from the shattered body, ahh! To feel the rasp of a saw grating through living tissue and grinding against bone was sublime, Gavileros at this time also began to enjoy it also, he had certainly grown into his job, a real slab of a man, but I digress.

Six months later slaanesh spoke to me directly and I answered in earnest, my life was one with the pleasure god, pain was my pleasure, agony my ecstasy, death my nourishment, the soul is nought without nourishment. I grew strong in discipline (gains +1 will power) under slaanesh's tutelage, life and death was good.

Mark of Slaanesh gains +1 will power

The stigmata of chaos is on me I don't know how long I can keep this pretence up, It would be a shame to lose this fountain of souls and pleasure that the army bring but they are suspicious of me , my mortality rate is soaring , I am losing my focus , just the other day a captain came to me complaining of a sore throat , so I cut out his tongue ! At least he won't tell anyone!

I spoke to Gavileros last week he certainly has grown! I don't know what he has been eating but its effects are profound! A giant of a man no less, I must get him on my side he may be useful in the coming weeks.

Gavileros came to my tent again it was nice, he told me he knew my secret! I was aghast, how? I thought I had been so very careful, he told me he knew because he heard the call as well and had chosen to worship as well.

Alas and so it ends all too soon, I am to be investigated by the altdorf militia for malpractice, indeed they know not of my work, it was exceptional skill that I use how dare they accuse me of negligence, it was all planned and intended, the fools.

I must leave Altdorf now but not before my final masterpiece is finished.

I have poisoned the wells in the citadel and have offered up the pain and suffering to slaanesh as a gift, Gavileros and I have left by the southern postern gate and have stolen some equipment from the armoury, I am not a soldier but I take an interest in causing pain, my weapon of choice a morning star , it will serve me well .

Slaanesh came to me in the night and rewarded my endeavours (gains face of slaanesh), Gavileros has gained a cloud of flies , their incessant buzzing is exquisite torture to my hearing , he has also got even bigger , there is no hiding him now!

'Gains face of slaanesh
Chaos thug gained growth 3 times normal size and cloud of flies

We journey south and stumble upon a small beastmen party led by a mighty shaman who promptly tries to vaporize Gavileros, to no avail (Gavileros is magic immune) And swiftly loses his head. The rest of the beastmen quickly prostrate themselves and join us. ther are a little strange almost albino but with strange green eyes.

Gain 3 beastmen
Gavileros is magic immune

As we travel further south Gavileros's skill with animals comes to the fore we are joined by slavering beasts from all corners who follow Gavileros at will, he commands them and they do his bidding, it is most disconcerting I shall have to watch him!!

Gavileros gains 4 chaos spawn
