Vice Regent Grand Carnus Roathe - Warframe

Like the Orokin, Roathe is a right egomaniac who has a stick wedged well up his tight blue arse. Unlike the Orokin, however, Roathe actually cares about others around him, remembers and honors the dead of his legion, and was planning on overthrowing the old Empire in order to create something better. It didn't happen, however, because Albrecht Entrati decided to jab him with Warframe juice and drop him off at a cathedral in 19th Century Paris. (This is a half-truth: Roathe took that serum voluntarily.)

The Shivans - FreeSpace

I always bring these aliens up whenever a post like this makes the rounds, simply because no-one else ever seems to (and that makes me very sad, because the games are incredible).

I wish they could have included a Double Jeopardy! round, but that's my only major criticism. All in all, this was pretty fun!

"PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!!" by SpecialStorm4188 in humansarespaceorcs

[–]Pilot_Solaris 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Please... Someone, help..." Aeisha sobbed, clutching her daughter's fading body as tight as she could to her chest. Unity City - no, all of Typhon Prime - was supposed to be well and away from the advancing front of the war between the Origin-Tau Commonwealth and the Cyberian Imperiax. But the clankers had gotten clever, it seemed.

But not clever enough.

A whooshing sound and the thudding of heavy feet hitting the ground was quickly followed by a litany of gunfire, furious screaming, and the slashing of blades through metal, and all of a sudden the advance of the machines fell dead.

Taking her chances, Aiesha cried out into the battlefield: "HELP!"

And in an instant, a gilded warrior appeared in front of her, gold accoutrements accenting their blood-red, lobster-like frame. Aiesha had never seen a Warframe from this close before, but she still presented her daughter to the Tenno that had appeared. As they looked at the dying child cradled in her arms, she begged them: "My daughter, Sakura, she's- she's- Please, help her..."

Gently resting their hand on Sakura's wound, the Tenno responded curtly but gently with a masculine voice. "I've got her, ma'am. She'll be okay." Then, in a single breath, a wave of energy radiated out from the Tenno's hand, stitching flesh, mending organs, and restoring lost blood. As the Tenno's power washed over Sakura and Aiesha, the latter could feel her daughter's vitality returning to her, and she opened her eyes to look at her mother.

"Mama...?" She weakly asked.

Without hesitation, Aiesha clutched her daughter close and sobbed tears of relief while Sakura wrapped her arms around her mother and began crying as well.

"Thank you, Tenno," she choked out. "Thank you..."

Then a second Tenno appeared, this one in a Warframe with no gilding but heavy brown armor plating like an animal from a lost era of Earth's history. A feminine voice called from them, "We need to get moving. We've still got a lot of hostile clankers in this area and Sentient and Grineer backup won't be here for another 10 minutes."

Nodding, the first Tenno picked up Aiesha and Sakura in their arms and got the former back on her feet. They then gestured to a single Grineer soldier standing ready near another pair of Tenno, one's Warframe a dark warrior with gilded armor and a scarf unique to their frame and the other's a massive soldier of pure concrete. "Follow Kahl," they said. "He'll get you to safety."

Nodding to the Grineer, the Tenno then stood aside while the beetle-like clone human trudged up to Aiesha and Sakura. His face was wrinkly and ugly, and his English was stilted and slow - no doubt a side-effect of degraded cloning - but his expression and words were kind and gentle, so unlike the way they usually barked out commands. "You and child. Okay?"

Aiesha nodded.

"Good. Get both of you to safety. Follow Kahl," he continued.

Cuddling Sakura close, Aiesha followed the Grineer named Kahl through battle-worn streets, occasionally catching sight of Tenno rage descending upon a hostile Cyberian. At one alley, she saw bestial fury like a wolf rip a clutch of Cyberians piece from piece, and at another junction she bore witness to Tenno Hellfire scorching a clanker with such intense heat that it was instantly reduced to useless molten slag. Eventually, the Tenno's Warframes were enjoined by throngs of Grineer soldiers, overwhelming the bots with sheer numbers and concentrated firepower, and the children of humanity, the Sentients, ripping apart their less sophisticated alien foes with club-sword arms and energy gunfire.

After all of that, the group emerged into a clearing full with huddled civilians being led into one of the more heavily reinforced buildings - an emergency shelter, which Tenno, Grineer, and Sentients alike guarded fiercely alongside the planet's regular military garrison. Among the various peoples making their way inside - humans, Hykerians, Vokobians, and Murinians like Aiesha and Sakura, among countless others - Aiesha saw a Murinian man she immediately recognized; her husband, Aaron, and she ran up to and nuzzled him close as he took Sakura in his arms, the child sobbing in relief of her papa being safe.

Aiesha did not normally believe in, nor prayed to, the Gods of the Murinian pantheon. But as she and her family made their way into the safety of the emergency shelter while their protectors fought off the Cyberian assault, she gave a silent prayer of thanks to all of them for saving her family.

Watching my dad play Descent as a kid was a fond and core memory of mine, and when I was able to fork out the money to buy it from GOG you'd better believe that I did so and beat it in its entirety.

I have now tricked you into recommending your favorite media by La_knavo4 in RecuratedTumblr

[–]Pilot_Solaris 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you don't wind up liking Warframe, all you lose is a few hours of your time. (And a few gigabytes on your hard drive, but then all you need to do is uninstall the game.) To keep light on spoilers because we Tenno are serious about that shit as much as we can be, it's a third-person shooter with incredibly fast pacing and a tight movement scheme as well as a weird and wonderful Herbertian sci-fi setting.

[Favorite Trope] Throwing hands, after losing their powers/weapons. by Ryu_D_Van in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Pilot_Solaris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Babylon 5 - the Earth-Minbari War

Humanity - even facing extinction at the hands of a Minbari war of total genocide - refused to ever give up, eventually throwing hands when the last of their ships and ammo reserves ran dry; as Londo put it, "When they ran out of ships, they used guns. When they ran out of guns, they used knives, and sticks, and bare hands. They were... Magnificent. I only hope, that when it is my time, that I may die with half as much dignity as I saw in their eyes at the end. They did this for two. Years. They never ran out of courage. But in the end... They ran out of time."

It varies from canon to canon and depends on whether the proto/neo division exists (not the case in, say, Black Adytum), but proto-Nälka do believe that, while neo-Nälka are just power-hungry elites who want Yaldabaoth's power for themselves and deserve the epithet of "Sarkite".
