Passionario:
The very second the doors swing open, Pass's eyes go momentarily blank, as her mind plunges into a vision - or a memory?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)She's on some battlefield, wading though a trench, stepping over corpses. Some of them are wearing the Imperial Guard uniform just like her own; others are bedecked in garish armor covered with heathen sigils that make her eyes water. Overhead, she hears the symphony of gunfire and coarse shouts, interrupted only by an occasional explosion.
Suddenly, a round metal object drops at her feet, full of barely contained malice and lust for destruction. Almost disdainfully, she reaches out with her will, snuffing out the spark at the heart of the grenade before it can blossom into conflagration.
A second later, she snaps out of it - just as the frag grenade rolls into the room and Silhariel leaps towards it.
With an almost imperceptibly smirk, she points a finger at the grenade:
"I name thee... Dud."

Marcus Constantine:
While falling down to the ground Marcus managed to recite half of "Holy Psalms of Avnaria's Martyrs". He then managed to recite the other quarter and somehow he was still alive. He lifted his head to see what was going on
Gargulec:
To your surprise, Pass' powers did not cause the Emperor to smite you by means of a sharpnely explosion. The grenade did indeed not go off . It was likely, however, that whoever threw it at you had more.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)Pass gets 50 XP for saving the party from the grenade, and S from beaconing a mass of minced meat.
Silhar:
"My head... Eh... What... where am I... ?"
Realizing a bit late that something awkward has just happened and his behavior would certainly lead all of them to a painful death, Silharriel stumbles a few steps back, staggering. He kneels on his right knee, somewhere next to the wall, then bows his head and whispers something in his Xeno tongue. A hood falls on his head.
Words sound like some kind of ritual, blasphemous yet hypnotizing noise of the Outcast's prayer has a manner somehow unsettling to the rest, the humans, the Young Race. Words... words seem to be older than the Imperium, The Domain of Man, The Holy Terra itself.
"Kaela Mensha Khaine, The Lord Of Aspects, The Bloody-Handed One, The Lord of War, The Wielder of Doom That Wails, The Slayer of Eldanesh, The Torturer of Vaul, The One Who Fought The Prince of Corruption, The One In Thousand Shards, hear me who begs Thy favour. My wounds bleed, enemies are numerous, my will is broken, my thoughts are clouded. Swingth not Thy sword on me, as you did to Eldanesh, but giveth me Thy strength to bear my burden and bring doom upon those who stalk me... Let me not fail Thee !"
Spoiler (click to show/hide)Using FP to recover 1d5 damage...
1d5=4
I therefore spend 200 xp for an Agility Simple and a Willpower Simple advances.
After a while, Silharriel raises his head. A dim, barely visible light glows now from beneath the hood - the light of inner fire in the Eldar's eyes, the light which was seeming to fade before. The Lost Soul stands up to the crouch, gripping his weapon even tighter.
"Now, deliver this little trove back to their owners, shall we ?", he pronounces with a deep, low voice, which brings unlovely memories of torture, pain and war.
Xander Morhaime:
Halsted waved for the others to hang back as he moved up to the door frame, keeping his stubber out of sight. "Oi, in there! Fair warning, we'd kind of like you to come with us alive and unharmed, which is a better offer than you're going to get from the bloody army fighting outside right now!" he shouted. "Come out of there peaceful like and we'll get you to a secure location, soldier's honour."
It was a crude and simple bluff, but so far in his experience those were the ones that worked best...
