The Black Fires of Birth (Naggeroth's Intro Thread)

There are many races in the galaxy, and not all of them possess the powerful genetics that allowed psychic manipulation and warp travel possible. Some have little presence in the warp; others, like the mutants of the Pariah Gene; actually lack a warp presence, and disturb and confuse Psykers. One of the psychically void races are the Tau; and it is these Xenos that are currently held in Research Facility Delta-17.

Hands played over instruments of torture; needles, electrical stimuli; scalpels; all to further the cause of Chronosian Science. The Tau here incarcerated have been tortured, tormented, manipulated at a cellular level, all to attempt to enforce psyker genes onto them...Others have been treated with Navigator Genes.

It is a normal day, thus far. The Tech Priests go about their business; and one enters the room, examining the subject; who turns to look at him; his eyes fixed, blazing with an aggression...The Tech Priest smirks, reaching for the button which controls the electical shocks; when a sharp crack echoes through the room; the glass has splintered down the middle; the spreading cracks moving across the two way mirror; he turns, only to see that the console has broken apart, blazing with warp fire. He gasps, turning back, and sees it, dear god he sees it...The blazing eye that has unfurled from the centre of the beings forehead, and the psychic scream before he feels his neck break; flesh tearing, bone shattering; divine implants of the Machien God wrenched from his flesh...
I'll kill you...

Emergency. Emergency. Containment failure; Cell Blocks 1-9, A-L; Rioting...Warning; Prisoner escape confirmed...

Sha'Lu stood, the bonds that had once held him not even slowing him down. With no more then a thought, he tore the Tech Priest to shreads, the pieces flying round in a Cyclone like fashion. He continued to pass through the corridors, ripping them apart as he went. A number of Guards came in, their weapons about to fire, but they where torn to shreads, their biomass clothing and weapons moving upwards to join an expanding form that was growing over the complex. He went throught the corridors, those that where not Chronosian where brought out and began to follow him, and above the swirling mass began to be manipulated into the massive form of a ship. Componets once shaped for one task where redifined into others, as Sha'Lu designed an engine in the design of one he had seen in the Tech-Priests mind. And then it was done, the entire facility no longer existed, and in its place above stood a ship that had a very tau like design. Sha'Lu looked back and spoke, when he did it also sent the message by mind.

"You" He said, pointing to a Small stunted Tau. "You will fly the Escaper"

"But I do not know how." The Tau quivered.

"Then I shall show you" he motioned for a second, and the Tau's eyes glazed over for the slightest moment.

"I understand."

"Good, You will lead us to the nearest Tau world, and we shall make our home there."

The people then rose, with no seeming effort, they where brought into the ship. The Stunted Tau moved to the main control pannel. The ship began to fly out of orbit, entering the depths of space. Then, the ship entered the warp.

A few Weeks later, they arrived on a Tau've world known as Naggeroth. It was a world that had origionally been settled by eldar, but slowly Tau had begun to increase in number, until now the Eldar where mixed in with a tital wave of Tau. The ship was given clearance, and then the words where spoken.

"We are the new breed of Tau, this must be known. In the next Generation we will replace the Ethereals, we must spread out through the Castes, We shall eventually move, but for now, let us begin."

So it was, that they did what was so. Those who had been implanted with the Nav Gene where spreed throughout the Air caste, those that where Exceptional at Reading minds had been sent to those of the water Caste, those that could use their power for destruction where send to the Fire Caste, and those that could use it to build where sent to the Earth Caste. The Two that where exceptional in all aspects, with no seeming flaws in their power, where sent into the Ethereal caste. For A full generation, they held on their breeding program, while after ten years sufficiant people had been born for the Ethereals to belive that these ones had evoloved of themselves, and not of some design. While not all children born had these powers, there where those that did, and they where asigned new tasks. With the New Nav Gene in the Air Caste, Space travle began to increase, and planet after planet was brought under the Tau've. Within Sixty Years, the Old Tau where a thing of the past, a new form had been born.

The attack had come suddenly; a thunder bolt from beyond the Imperium's Eastern fringe; where an Imperial outpost had fallen, torn asunder by raiders who used a technology more advanced than any that the Imperium had thus far encountered...

Chronosian Colony World; X37B; Designation: Acherok.

The Inquisitor knelt, examining the sundered metal of the colony, as Tech Priests crowded about. "This was not done by bolter fire..." He hissed. "These were energy weapons"

"My Lord; we have made a discovery..."

"What is it?"

"Lord; we have identified DNA samples from the Xenos; they appeared to be Tau, but are different. We have, however, records of them in our archives."

"How so?"

"We created them..."

The Inquisitor spun, his mind lashing out, lifting the man into the air, choking him with his will alone.

"You did what!?" He hissed "You birthed Xeno filth? An abomination in His sight"

"My Lord; we were authorised by the Emperor; we experimented with increasing Tau psychic abilities; the facility was destroyed, we expected them all dead."

"And now they live, and breathe and kill" He tossed the man aside. "Get this degenerate from my sight..." The Tech Priest was dragged away, as the Inquisitor looked skyward. "Abhorent mistakes must be purged...In his Name"

The Tau've had slowly expanded over the Years, always moving outwards. Tau, Kroot, Humans and Eldar where the most prominent races that existed within it, but there where others.

Sha'Lu sat in the House in the Capital Naggerotha. He held a cup of wine in one hand, and he was looking over the City from his houses veiw on the mountines. He smiled, it was beautiful, quite so. The City was made White, and it was surrounded by mountines on all sides, besides one which opened up onto the ocean. The middle of the city was split by a river, and where the ocean met the rivers mouth a delta had formed. He smiled, looking over his creation, and it was good. He had spent Sixty Years Making the World the Eden it had become, and he was spending time now relaxing and enjoying it.

"Ethereal" someone said from the door. "Our couts report all attacks are succsessful"

"Good, halt them now, we have plenty."

"Yes Ethereal, would you like to give any other orders?"

"Send messages out asking for peace, we wish stability, so let it be said we want it."

"Yes Ethereal, it will be done."

OOC: Is that just general messages of peace; or directly to me?
Oh, and Bump
