Night Lords/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • The end of Blood Reaver, when Vandred/The Exalted dies. Not only does he guide The Covenant of Blood in awesome void warfare against superior odds but at the end he relinquishes control of the body back to the Exalted; allowing the daemon to suffer as the Covenant explodes.
  • Talos and his Squad taking down a Warhound Titan.
  • Malcharion's Reawakening scene. Or, pretty much any scene where Malcharion is active.
  • The slaves standing up to Ruven. To be more accurate, A Navigator, 2 Normal Humans, and a mutant stand up to a fully armoured psychic sorcerer who could easily kill them with very little effort. Part of this is because Talos would kill Ruven immediately if the slaves were harmed, but they all draw weapons on him first.
  • Uzas, the human slaves and thirty raptors taking down Demonically Possessed Marine Caleb, ending with Lucrophys snarling I'll eat your eyes. Coming from a Chaos Space Marine, let alone a Raptor, that is a genuine threat.
  • Vandred maneuvering the Covenant of Blood to enable him to evacuate the Night Lords from Crythe, and prevent the Warmaster from firing on his brother captain's vessel, by using his own orders is very, very awesome, especially considering how Vandred was behaving before hand.
  • Talos pulling a Ceiling Cling on a Blood Angel squad and simply slaughtering them. When the last one retreats, he simply laughs and remarks that he wasn't expecting that.
  • First Claw annihilating Third Claw who outnumber and outgun them, by simply charging forward and cutting them to pieces. Helps that one of their members is mister Ax Crazy and another is a Master Swordsman.
