Godless Sond and the Ancestral Sarikote

[Long description:

A ragtag detachment of funny-looking cyborgs made of bone, flesh, steel, and wood. Their long, imperious robes have been weathered by the ages. One wields something like a pistol made of bone, with many spinal columns dangling from his back as makeshift appendages. His face is obscured by a hood and a respirator, which is set with vertebrae instead of cartridges. Another wears a frayed amigasa and brandishes two singing blades. The one in the background is much larger, a humanoid construct with the body of a huge, skeletal snake from the waist down.]

Read the story of the ruin within the ruin, and those imprisoned within…

Quite possibly the funniest fucking thing I could do to moribund since reverend jesse cauldwell. Release your inhibitions feel the rain on your skin etc.

I was 10000% secure in the fact that there was no chance for interchange between Moribund and the warhammy ripoff. Fundamentally incompatible from the ground up. They barely even have the concept of war in morb. But then

A series of surreal edits of a deadpan emoji. It says 'I Realized.' And then in the next panel, the emoji grows a third eye and says 'And then I couldn't stop realizing.' In the third panel, more eyes pop up all over the emoji's face, and it says 'I want to stop realizing.'

It’s been a while since I had the chance to sit down and write articles about things that will probably never show up in a mainline Moribund story. I want to make more room for that on this website, but time has been on a premium lately. Fingers crossed I get around to it.

I’m ehhhhhh middling my hand about accompanying this with art, but I spent an inordinate amount of time on this for something so goofy. Been trying to figure out a workflow that will make Rebelle less intimidating to open. I /am/ unreasonably tickled that slapping Moribund aesthetics onto the decidedly anti-Moribund framework of warhamster 40k resulted in “Morrowind, but make it a fucked up bone cyborg.” Morrowind had a formative influence on Asthaom and particularly the ancestral Sarikote.

so like… those endlings, huh
