I feel like, after a while, being a daemon (why ae?) would become fairly repetitive and boring.

Curon,

I saw that Firefly threw in a little sass with the ae, so I thought.. Why correct him, might as well stick with the status quo and go with it since he does run the place. lol

"Daemons are good or benevolent nature spirits beings of the same nature as both mortals and gods, similar to ghosts, chthonic heroes, spirit guides, forces of nature or the gods themselves."

"A Daemon is an intelligent entity of the Warp, and daemons are collectively the greatest servants of the Chaos Gods and of Chaos itself as a universal force. They are created at the whim of a Chaos God from a fraction of the God's own power and act as an extension of his will. A daemon's appearance and intrinsic character reflect the God's own nature. These daemons may be reabsorbed into the God's own psychic signature in the Warp at his whim."

Ork horde. C'mon, man!

Speaking of War-Forty-Kay, I am the third book into the Horus Heresy. Pretty good story telling.

I love the authors style. He is the guy who wrote the gaunts ghosts books as well.

The ciaphis cain books are also great though much diffrent then most 40k fiction.

Ciaphus Kain. Oh my god. Such hilarity to be had in the grim darkness of the far future.

Ciaphas Kain. Firmly behind his men in the forty-first millenium!

It's amazing that Cipahus shows that even in the grim dark setting you can be hilarious without seeming out of context.

Agreed, Faceless. I think that was the best part about the series.

Literature is just so enriching to one's life.
Speaking of, don't we have a small community within ourselves that practices writing?

Not only are we badass we're also cultured!

Hey, hey! It's pretty close not really to describing the company, isn't it?
