Call me Éleuthère or Élie for short, IS-NTP / French/ 20/ I'm in too many fandom.... unfortunately? Instagram account: ego_sum_imperator Twitter: Éleuthère ᕕ ( ᐛ ) ᕗ @LeDivinConnard
So I'll post it here the censored version (hoping that it'll not be shadowbanned too) and the uncensored version is visible on my Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/eleuthere.bsky.social/post/3mporadholc2y
Since I can't post uncensored on Tumblr, there it is
I was illustrating this ask, very kinky one so beware
Censored version on my tumblr
🔥🔥
I know I should post more but writing a thesis takes lots of time and painting minis too (one day I'll post pictures of them because I'm really proud of my work). Writing fic for me only to read because it's terribly written takes so much time. I admire you fanfic authors and authors in general
For today I'll present you a pair of ocs and their backstories (not complete yet). I've created them to work a little on my anatomy and to exercise different shapes of faces in order to avoid the same face syndrome
Kinda kinky stuff under the cut. If my post is shawdowbanned by Tumblr because of it, I'll repost it with the drawing
So there is Sythe of the Night Lord and his pet Raven Guard sorcerer (for my défense, I've totally forgot Rushal's existence when I imagined them)
Their stories:
Sythe Raen (Night Lord)
A very apathetic person, rarely showing or feeling emotions, especially strong ones (e.g. anger), which makes it very difficult to read his face or understand what is going on in his head. When he does feel strong emotions, it is mainly during combat or while torturing someone, whether an enemy or one of his own men.
Merciless, he has no problem killing those who try to kill him to usurp his position as captain, killing them quickly or not depending on the severity of the crime and also on his state of mind and desires.
He is loyal to Konrad because he is his Primarch, but that does not mean he likes him. He follows orders blindly, no matter what he has to do, and does not hesitate to unleash his violence.
During the Great Crusade, Sythe was Captain Kyrion's second-in-command, even though he was much older than him but did not possess the same strategic genius. However, he never harmed Kyrion, even though Kyrion had no qualms about getting rid of those who caused him problems.
After Kyrion's disappearance (he knew that he had been imprisoned following the destruction of their homeworld Nostramo and the beginning of the Thramas Crussade and that his body had not been found after the DA attack on their fleet), he established himself as the new leader of the 9th Company. Of course, this was not well received by some, but especially by the squad of Contekars Terminators who were members of the company and refused to obey him, so he massacred their leader, torturing him until his body resembled nothing more than a pile of bloody, raw flesh begging him to finish him off (just like Kyrion did centuries ago, such a good student)
When Konrad was assassinated, he was there when it happened, like many others. While almost everyone else threw themselves on their father's remains to collect the famous relics of the Legion, which he saw as mere objects that had been given importance, he simply left to join his ship and enter the Warp, where he would hide most of the time. Since then, he has been attacking Imperial ships and worlds to continue the mission Konrad entrusted to them: to destroy the Imperium. He refuses to serve Chaos and its four gods, or even Abaddon. The latter has tried repeatedly to rally him to his cause (eager to obtain the power of an entire, well-equipped company), but without success. Sythe serves only one leader, his Primarch Konrad Curze, and refuses to serve any other, especially Abaddon. Abaddon squanders his own resources on attacks that yield very little in return for the price paid (in the lives of Astartes, serfs, slaves and equipment).
This infuriated Abaddon, who decided to force him to join him one last time by setting a trap. He sent one of his ships to attack Sythe's, leaving him no choice but to fight. Unfortunately, during the battle, Sythe was seriously wounded in the primary heart by an unknown spell cast by one of Abaddon's Sorcerers, which paralysed him before other legionnaires began to slaughter him, targeting his limbs first. His men came to his aid before fleeing into the Warp at full speed.
The captain was rushed to the apothicarion, where the medical serfs and apothecaries did their best to stabilise his condition. They would have liked to place him in a sarcophagus and then put him in a dreadnought, but unfortunately during the battle (which they won), a large part of the ship reserved for tech-priests and their slaves had been badly damaged, rendering the sarcophagus unusable. So the tech-priests used their expertise to adapt the dreadnought to their captain's dying body, locking him inside, half dead but also half alive
The dreadnought serves more as a kind of giant exoskeleton
Only his left arm remains intact, despite the loss of two fingers on that arm
He can survive outside the dreadnought by being connected to machines, but he looks like a very strange caterpillar.
Although his body and mind have been saved, fate continues to make him suffer horribly, and the apothecaries cannot find a way to ease his pain (even though they have tried everything).
Unable to take it anymore, Sythe orders one of their long-time guests to be brought in: Ascunde, a sorcerer... With his abilities, Ascunde manages to ease his captain's pain, which makes him very happy, but it hurts his ego to find himself employing a psyker to help him, given that he hates them.
At first, the two are very cold/cordial with each other, Sythe insulting Ascunde copiously, who could not and did not respond, especially at the beginning. Gradually, he began to respond to him, but only when they were alone together. After a while, the two ended up becoming even closer to the point that Ascunde became his confidant but also, perhaps... his lover... With the two now close, Sythe asked for something he had never asked of anyone else before: to examine his little brother Vire'leth, who had gone mad without explanation.
An answer came...
An answer that did not please him...
Vire'leth had been corrupted against his will by the four gods of Chaos, and the voices he heard were the voices of the gods trying to corrupt him further. His mind fought the voices and the corruption, but it drove him mad and caused him to lose all contact with reality.
His own brother... corrupted by Chaos... No... he couldn't let that happen, but unfortunately, Ascunde could do nothing. The gods were too powerful and his powers were insufficient... So Sythe asked his lover to kill his brother because he couldn't do it himself and couldn't leave him in such a state, but the sorcerer couldn't do it either, as he was also attached to Vashta. So, they made him leave the ship because, as captain, he could not allow one of his men to be corrupted by Chaos, and as his brother, he could not bring himself to kill him. Sending him away was the best solution, making his departure an unexplained escape to hide the truth.
Ascunde (ex Raven Guard)
Unlike Sythe, Ascunde is very young, becoming an Astartes at the end of the Great Crusade. He is one of the Astartes created by the Primarch of the XIXth, Corvus Corax, and unfortunately, he was one of those whose genetic heritage was damaged by the Alpha Legion, which had somehow infiltrated the order. In his misfortune, he was lucky that he was not too badly deformed, simply having feathers growing perpetually on his body and miniature wings all over that he has to remove every day.
He later discovers that his “luck” is due to the fact that he is a psyker who has been connected to the Warp for a long time, which allows him to “control” his mutations.
If he releases his abilities and loses control, he will become a mutant, deformed beyond humanity, like the rest of his brothers.
He was captured by Sythe's NL warband during the pillaging/destruction of his ship because his psionic abilities were sought after by the NL, who needed a Sorcerer (they were not happy about this, but their Sorcerer had just died).
Ascunde spends most of his time in his room or in the ship's library, always under someone's supervision. After Sythe was converted into a dreadnought, he began spending more time at his side.

Best day ever 😭😭😭😭 thank you @slaaneshsleftovergender for the gift and letting me play with you tuoys and @little-miss-bioweapon121 for the awesome art. I can't stop staring at it
Oc Friday but kinda late because I had a lot of things to do at the lab and I completely forgot what day we were. Better late than never. (Little bonus at the end hihihi)
So, I'll present 2 of some ocs I was cooking since few weeks but unable to sketch them until now. They're a part of a larger warband leaded by a dissident Word Bearer called Bahram and his three lieutenants:
- Malefaim, a lonely Death Guard,
- Anghèu, a Night Lord,
- and Werre, a World Eater traitor to his legion.
For the moment I've only designed Werre as a mutated Astartes/Manticore (I hesitated with making him a horse centaur) and Anghèu.
Some presentations now!
Werre:
He was a proud son of Terra' member of the War Hounds before Angron was found. He thought that he'll love his new Father but the deception was huge and he started hating him, especially when Angron forced the Nails on his sons. Werre didn't had another choice than to accept them and serve (he tried to pull out the Nail but it caused him an ineffable pain). He did until the the end of the Siege of Terra when he quit his Legion with few brothers to form a rogue warband.
Werre is difficult to apprehend due to the Butcher's Nails altering his personality and behaviour, always swinging betwen periods of depersonalization, sadness or violence. And being most of the time with powerful psyker don't help him at all to calm the constant pain.
He joined Bahram's warband later in life with his brothers, forming a larger one, stronger and more functional
Anghèu:
Of the warband, he's the youngest. Not a Nostramo born, his parents were descendants of baselines humans from a planet in the Thramas sector, serfs in a Night Lord war band's ship. He was taken from them when the warband started needed more Astartes writhing its ranks and the young Anghèu was at the perfect age to start the process. Little they knew or they didn't care about was that Anghèu was a Blank but it didn't stopped the Night Lord to made an Astartes out of him.
Years later his warband was defeated by another and Anghèu was left to die, his Blankness being intolerable to be near him (he was causing people head aches, lot of pain, sudden collapse and sometime he killed some serfs and slaves by accident). Bahram was the one to find him and didn't reject him: his blankness can be an advantage in combat. To help him a little, he created for the Night Lord an artefact based on the Aeldari soul stone to give him a relative presence in the warp, nullifying temporary the side effect of his blankness when he's wearing the artefact mounted as a collar.
He's a huuuuge picky eater, eating only some very specific thing. He smiles and laugh a lot but his laugh his kinda weird and often he manages to choke himself while laughing.
Werre and Anghèu are extremely close especially when the blankness of Anghèu sometime attenuate the psychics energies emited by the psyker that can trigger the Nails and can also attenuate the pain caused by them.
I'll talk more about them another time when I'll have the time to work a little more on them. For the moment I'm working on another project (not one of mine) and also on the design for Malefaim and Bahram.
For Malefaim, I want to go on a design based on bugs because I love bugs, so maybe a spider type tarentula because in my mind Malefaim have the phsysic of a sumo, so a large spider for a large boy maybe mixed with a moth (maybe a hummingbird moth) or some scarab for the tank aspect.
And for Bahram, since he's a master of possession, I want to include in his design some goat features. I will also look in my books and lessons what I can find to give him a look based on Indian art, maybe early 1st millennial, maybe based on the sculpture from the Bharhut and Sanchi Stūpas and early Gupta art (I'm reserving the Gandhara's art for someone else 🤭).
Little bonus: quick sketch of Anghèu and Werre taking a nap
HAII EVERYONE!! it's been a while but I got into warhammer 40k and to get myself out of artblock I'm doing a series where I draw the Primarchs as my little ponies for fun!!
Your Konrad is so full of energy and life (ironically so maybe) I absolutely adore the way you draw him, you capture his spirit so well : )
Thank youuu!!!
I must say i do think i mischaracterise him, i often draw him a lot happier than he actualy is, or rather having a great time causing suffering, when realy he tends to be a bit more grim and cruel about it, i fear i may be playing up the Crazy(trademark) aspect of him a bit too much,
Anyhow, here's him happily skinning a man, cropped for gore, full under cut
actually im curioussss, for those of u with Astartes oc’s, have they met their primarch? what were the circumstances, was it often, what was that meeting like etc etc
So Kyrion meets Konrad the first time when he was introduced in the Atramentars by Sevatar. Then he meets him several time, especially when he became claw master (aka captain) of the ninth claw. He was kinda scared, he knew the NightHaunter only through rumors and stories (he lived in the country side) but he swears to be ever loyal to him and did.
But after the destruction of Nostramo, their relationship became weirder with Kyrion starting to doubt his Father and Konrad keeping an eye on him. He saw in a vision that Kyrion will not fall to Chaos/heretic side so he had to ensure that the vision will become true by testing him by making him do terrible things like: helping him eviscerating Vulkan, making him kill innocent. Kyrion finally "betrayed him" at the end of the Thramas Crusade by refusing to commit a massacre of innocent people.
Kyrion remain loyal to the Imperium.
Last time he saw Konrad was abroad the Red Tears during the Siege of Terra, he spoke with him one last time, telling him everything he had on his heart.
Later, Konrad was send into the Void by Sanguinius (Kyrion hated the Angel on the moment).
Even if he was mad at his Primarch at the end, he misses him a lot.
