This actually works OK; Today, while spending roughly an eternity in the pubic (not a misspelling) transport system, I decided to steal the Brutes from Halo because they rock.

You're all fucking heart.
All the same, I'll remember that line next time I hit on a widow. Since it obviously works for such a renowned lady's man such as yourself, it would have to work great for me too...
I think I've been burned. Maybe I should stop making trouble for myself. Taunting the assassin, Petrosjko, and considering putting Typhonus's honey through a Malleus investigation. Who needs enemies?

Hey, you were the one who said that a character death wasn't official unless it ended with 'he died'. And you're free to have his boots (or rather, the small cloud of ash floating around in the station's ventilation system that used to be his boots).

It was surprisingly easy. Word association and a few pieces of mutilated Latin (word association with High Gothic for in-universe consistancy) and it all makes sense.

It was... interesting. What is 'glossia', exactly?

Inquisitorial code language. Generally each inquisitor makes one up for his team's use. Featured in the Eisenhorn novels. This is my character's variant.

Ah, I see. I was wondering if it was another Imperial language or something, like High Gothic.

They usually use pseudo-Latin for High Gothic. Adeptus Astartes, Schol Psychia, Officio Assassinorium, Ecclesiarchy, etcetera, etcetera are all High Gothic.

While similar things are in use across the Imperium, I'm fairly certain the term glossia is only used by that heretic Eisenhorn.

You're right. Lots of inquisitors have similar code languages and Eisenhorn named his Glossia. Maybe I'll change the name when I can think of a good alternative. There is always my spine crushingly heavy thesaurus.

1, if the Psycannon is the Malleus trademark and the Power Armour is the Hereticus trademark, what's the Xenos trademark?
The flamer is the Hereticus Trademark. And I'd say it varies for the Xenos.
2, do Interrogators always become the same Ordo as their 'tutors'?
No. Hell, the Ordos aren't even offical, with the exception of the Malleus. You can be in none, one or many.

Just kidding. Please don't hurt me.
So how many Iron Men have you disabled in melee combat then?
Besides, if 2.4 Imperial Guardsman can kill a Chaos marine without losses, how hard can it be?
