Gideon does indeed have a tendency to get around.

As for the telepathy stuff, I suppose guys like this one need to learn to use toxins that kill off brain matter, or to render their brains unusable by some other means... then again, generic low-end villain types are a bit short on sense by definition.

An explosive charge implanted in the brain would do the trick. Not going to be much that a telepath could do with that kind of mess.

Indeed. That said, it probably wouldn't occur to even those slightly more blessed with sense - psykers aren't exactly plentiful.
However, when going into an Inquisition fortress likely to be well populated with telepaths, the distinction between clinical and brain death becomes a little more important.

Still, I suppose it got him out of being tortured to death.

You could argue that he was braindead to begin with, or at least stupid enough to qualify.

Yay, cosmic horrors. As soon as they manifest Gideon's probably gonna pass Grant the biggest gun left (Probably a bolt pistol) and run off to hide somewhere.

Out of the two, Grant has never fought more than one or two daemons at a time (usually the lowest-level sentient that can communicate with its summoner, so for example a Bloodletter). Gideon on the other hand has encountered daemons on three separate occasions, one of which entailed a full-blown planetary invasion (incidentally, planet Adin is now uninhabitable on account of being, well, Mordor without an atmosphere), and as a consequence he isn't all that enthusiastic about fighting them unless he absolutely has to. He therefore respects, and is scared witless of, any and all Ordo Malleus operatives... something Glosche may be able to use to his advantage later on, as it happens.

If that wasn't quite what you wanted the beacon to be for Necris send me a PM and I can ammend that post.

nope it's good you got the idea the transponder was placed as an emergency escape plan, a drop ship awaits the beacons signal...

Might as well get the killing started - whichever way around the killing is going to happen.

I originally wrote more of that post, but cut it back to leave more of a cliffhanger for someone else to jump onto.

As you may have noticed, I'm doing a bit of exploration with Maya's powers.

I hadn't originally given her the Fireball psychic power on her tabletop profile, but she's meant to have powers based around low-level telepathy, micro telekinesis and pyrokinetics - while her powers are often a mix of the different disciplines, there's no reason she couldn't just hurl fire at the enemy, given the relatively moderate skill and control it would take compared to the other things she's capable of.

She has more powers on her character sheet than when I started this RP, I can tell you.

Postage. Swarb, I expanded on your mention of close quarters fighting and had something manifest near you and Grant.

by the way, prepare for incoming brown stuff if you court-martial Gideon for running off -- Grant is literally the only person in this RP aside from Gideon himself who knows why daemons terrify him.

Fabio kicks the arse of an unaligned lesser daemon, in a reference to the Destroy Daemon power from the daemonhunter's codex.

Right, I'm going to not be here this weekend. Wyebold still intends to run for the bunker and try to coordinate things from there

Episode synopsis: Lyra speaks in Latin* & tries to make a badass one Liner, Kai shows why Lyra keeps him around, and Maya rants at a daemon.

*Probably very bad Latin, given that I can't actually speak it.

Okay. Things are not looking too good for Fabio. And everyone else, if that Bloodletter drops him and Grant doesn't take it out.

Let's hope he makes it.

I'll post something in the morning; exactly why I'm still up at 2am, I don't know...
