CANON INFORMATION NIGHT!

The game's pretty big isn't it? With so many characters it's sometimes hard to keep up with everyone's canon and character backgrounds. Not to mention that the apps aren't always placed in the character's journal, and it leaves you wondering how they are, or even where they come from.

WELL WONDER NO MORE! It's time for a canon and character night!

The idea behind this post is primarily an information exchange. Just fill in this form, and think about factoids and things in a list form. Remember, you're trying to sell your character & canon to others, so talk about what makes them unique and fun. With any luck, you'll learn some new things about other people's characters that you can base relationships or friendships on, or even find a new fandom which catches your interest!

Note: Please mark the top of your thread with the canon. This way, other people in your canon can add whatever they want to it, such as their character stuff, and other cool factoids about the canon that they might remember.

You are perfectly fine and more than allowed to ask questions about the fandoms to the other players if you wish as well!

WH40k is the universe for you. Humans ruthlessly slaughter anyone who is a mutant, isn't human, and doesn't worship their God Emperor...and will destroy entire planets with 6 billion plus citizens for benign reasons. The Eldar, this race this character here is, have instigated wars causing millions of deaths...just to save a couple thousand of their own race. The Tau are space communists who believe in working toward a Greater Good. Question one ethic of it and enjoy spending time in a 're-education camp'. They're also known for sterilizing entire planets because their descendants could be upstarts.

And that's like....just a couple races in the universe.

BUT YEAH, if you're interested in like....a gateway into the series, this book was mine. It's a darkish comedy about a nice guy who's kind of a coward doing his best to survive in the Imperial Guard, the human army.
