We're happy to welcome new contributors. If you'd like to have a read of the project (and please, don't pitch an idea without having read anything!), there are a few possible starting points. The main page is: 1d4chan.org/wiki/The_Veeky Forums_Heresy
While the Primarchs and the Legions are firmly locked down at the moment, we welcome any and all with ideas for Successor Chapters, Xenos Empires, Great Crusade Era Factions, Ork WAAAGHdoms, Eldar Craftworlds, Imperial Army/Guard Regiments, Knight Houses, Mechanicum/Mechanicus Forgeworlds, etc.

While they've been fighting the forces of chaos with an efficient, bitter hatred since the earliest days of the heresy, they weren't formally inducted into The Adepts until 137.M33, thus making them arguably the oldest or the youngest of the brotherhoods.
The sentence structure here is fucked, but my brain is still in numbers mode. Please help.

Maybe break it into two sentences, that should help the flow.

Tomorrow: Eldar corsairs.

The following was modeled after catholic religious texts, specifically early translations of the bible from Latin and a few ecclesiastic texts from the catholic church. One of the big themes ronin pushed for the "angel" house of the grey knights was sticking to a hardcore catholic theme, so I'd attempted to mirror their meter and tone as I wrote the fluff for that house.
My question is this: is it too much? I'm trying to keep a strong religious tone, but I can't help but look at it and wonder if I need to tone it back a bit.
>Where go the Ruinous Powers go corruption and sickness, the whim of the moment and the madness of aeons to lead astray the weary and weak. Where go the Angels of Lucifel go dreadful portents of fire and woe, ire to the enemies of man and beacon eternal to the faithful of His flock. These great defenders of mankind want not purity or virtue, seeing the sinfullness of man and excising with haste such impurity from their bodies and minds that they may never be tempted. What temptation can hold the Dark Gods to these most hallowed servants of His Will, they whose wrath struck from their flesh all weakness, they who seek eternally that great purity of the emperor? No sinful ambition can the Changer of Ways offer those whose only want is to serve their Lord. No corrupt respite can the Plaguefather offer the blessed few whose hearts can never know peace while their duty is undone? No glory can the Bloodlord offer such humble souls whose visage of glory is only that of their Father. No temptation of flesh can the Prince of Sin offer those who strip away their desire with lash and holy fire.

I don't see that as being too much of a problem. You can justify it by making it metaphorical writings about their purpose, not a literal description.

Is Arkhan Land still doing his thing in our continuity?
Daniel Rodriguez
How DARE you steal my ideas after rebuking them!

If you're actually ronin, which I don't really believe you are, you'd know that I told him literally eight times that I was perfectly willing to work with his ideas. And I already wrote them into the codex, so I'm not bothering to go back and change most of them.

If you two are going to start shit again, take it to IRC so you don't mess up the thread.
