Occam's Razor. It's simply simpler to assume that you do things the same as every other quest runner on the site instead of doing crazy freestyling stuff.

Well as my good friend OverlordVera can tell you, I am nothing but crazy freestyling stuff. He would know, because I have him counting the vote by hand.
 
Hm, curious as to where this goes

[X] Jack Rakan
[X] Male
[X]Hive
[X] You lived a normal life full of loving friends and family, free of any significant trauma by the standards of the universe you lived in. You were a normal, perfectly sane and adjusted individual, save one this one flaw: You couldn't ignore the suffering in the universe. No matter how you thought about it, you just couldn't rationalize all the death and misery. You just had to do something, anything to help your fellow man no matter how hopeless the situation was. Even if it meant embracing the darkness. You'll happily go through hell if it means others can know heaven.
[X] Undivided (i.e. you made no distinction on any level)
 
When I woke up and saw your post, words cannot describe how excited I got. I was literally looking forward to dropping that on you all day.
Why? It's not particularly entertaining. It's like a person picking up a child to prevent them from running into traffic, except actually its a dwarf and then they just look at you.
 
[X] Hugh Mungus
[X] Male

[X] Forge

[X] Justice? Revenge? Kindness? Who cares? You sure don't. There was no great injustice in your past to avenge. Or maybe there was. You don't care. Nothing you could have done would have made a difference. Whether you went left or right, nothing would have really changed. Anything you would have done would have been part of the plan of someone greater than you. So it all really doesn't matter. The game was rigged against you from the start, against everyone. So there was one one logical action: flip the board. You don't care how you do it, you just want to watch everything BURN.

Intro: Back In Black Part III
You stare the woman dead in the eye, a manic grin slowly spreading across your face.

"There's many reasons one fights for a god such as Malal. Some for justice, others for vengeance. But as for me? To put it simply, I just want to watch it all burn. There was no great injustice in my past to avenge. Or maybe there was. I don't care, it's all so fuzzy now. Not that it would've mattered. Nothing I could have done would have made a difference, whether I was avenging something or making some great change or did frankly anything. Anything I could have done would have been part of the plan of someone greater than me, anything anyone does is part of someone's plan. So it all really doesn't matter. Nothing matters. The game was rigged against me from the start, against everyone. So there was one one logical action: flip the board. I didn't know what I was going to do, I just knew one thing: the universe was a dark, twisted place, and I was going to burn it all to the ground."
The woman doesn't seem all that surprised by your answer, merely saying, "You've rehearsed that."

"I've had lots of practice. Damn near everyone asks that. Why? Never who, or what, or where. Just why, and maybe how. Self centered really; they don't care about who's killing they just want to know how they factor into the equation. Not many people took well to "Because," and a shrug," you say, shrugging.

"In that case, my name is Yuuko Ichihara, and who are you?"

"Mungus, first name Hugh."

"A pseudonym. I would like to say how smart, but... I'll just put down None Given on the contract."

"If that's the case I'd prefer Null."

"So be it, but writing down Null won't nullify a contract."

"One day it will," you laugh.

"Most people don't take their very existence so lightly."

"Most people don't actively worship a god of self destruction."

"You laugh now, but be aware. Nothing in this world is free. Th-"

"Ms. Ichihara, perhaps you missed my introduction. I don't care."

She maintains a neutral expression as she drinks more sake. If your flippant remark hadn't ended the conversation, the return of the business man does. He walks straight up to you. He looks your scarred visage up and down, examining your every detail. Your jittery twitching, a product of your upbringing on a Death World. Your red eyes and chalk white skin, a sign of your allegiance. He even seems to see through you, spying the various augments beneath your skin. You flash him a smile, one full of pointed teeth.

"So, Mr... Null, was it? We meet at last. Please, don't think that I've been avoiding you, a great many matters require my attention in these interesting times. I do hope you understand. Your... arrival, in these matters were relatively unexpected. Now there were some who objected to your recruitment. A madman such as yourself... would be too hard to, uh, control. But I remain firm in my assessment that any chaos your... effort may cause can easily be capitalized on for... well, that's not really for you to know. And I admit, I have a fascination with those who adopt and survive against all odds... they rather remind me of myself. You have... potential, Mr. Null, and I fully intend to take advantage of that. I've received some interesting offers for your services, and rather then pretend you have some measure of choice in the matter I've gone ahead and choose the first on for you. It is one thing to hear of... one's exploits, and quite another to see them in action myself."

He gestures towards the door.

"Please gather your... weapons at the door on your way out. Instructions await you on the other side."

WEAPON
Write in for this. There's no limitation on what weapons it can be, other than it has to be usable by a non-psyker human. Crew serviced weapons (ex. heavy bolter, autocannon) are also acceptable.
 
[X] FISTS SO WE HAVE THE PLEASURE OF KILLING THE SUNNOVA ***** WITH OUR BEAR HANDS!...If we go with this option can we have that monopoly guy moustache to boot?

Also, can we request multiple weapons or even use weapons from whatever poor ultimately doomed universe we inevitably crash into? (Perhaps a harmless black notebook where the deaths of those whose name are written inside are a total coincidence. Or a bizzare demon fruit that turns us into a fish.)
