Asurmen

Asurmen

Inktober day 4. My boy Asurmen. The greatest hero of Eldar hands down. The one famous not for destruction, but for creation! He is the one who came up with a philosophy of the Path, that allowed his kind to overcome the shortcomings of their nature that had lead to the Fall, and build a beautiful new society. The society that enables everyone to follow the calling of their hearts on the road to self fulfilment, at the same time keeping the whole society coherent and strong.. The second greatest achievement was the establishment of martial traditions, that gave Eldar unparalleled specialist warriors in their respective Aspects, and he also came up with the concept of War Masks, that allowed those warriors to come back to normal life unscathed by the horrors of war.

Thanks for nothing, Gav Thorpe, you wrote a book named after this guy, and you told square nothing about him and especially about his greatest deeds. You also managed to show the Fall, the greatest catastrophe in the history of 40K, as a contemptible fizzle, missing all the points. Thank you for the Path of the Warrior, and maybe Seer, but not the other books. Do us all a favour and don’t write about Eldar anymore.
