It's a mask custom made for Gustav from archeotech parts. He's not really comfortable explaining why he needs his mask to fight, but it's likely a sense of detatchment. He is a lover of beauty and serentiy when not on the battlefied, and probably fears that without making a clear definition between Gustav the man and Gustav the warrior, his writing would suffer.

I think there some term for this kind of thing.. s psychological switch? Reguardless he's a neat character and he looks bitchin.

Yeah? Thanks, I really appreciate that.

That actually makes a lot of sense. He sees the mask as a way of putting the spear down as it were.
Awesome. I may have to steal err, I mean TAKE this idea and use it.

Hmm. He puts on the mask to enter his war-persona, and takes it off to become a sheltered civilian with no knowledge of war other than what is strictly necessary?
I didn't know there were Eldar Aspect Warriors in Ragged Edges.

Shhhh, the Ordo Xenos would send the Deathwatch on him. Besides, everyone has their "quirks". For example the overly superstitious guardsmen who engage in strange rumor rituals to enhance their weaponry (It will either not work or they will be duped into heresy probably).

tbh Gustav looks like a Space marine scout more than a guardsman lol

OMG. It's a Me as a Storm Trooper! LOL.
I'm just saying that cause he and I have the same personality. Other than the awful color, (Sorry, if it was a bit darker in shade, it'd give a stronger feel) This is a good character.

Dr. Myers and Mr. Eversor?
I hope that these two personalities of him never change over in the middle of a battle or worst, in the middle of the mess room!

He doesn't go beserk, exactly. But yeah, he wouldn't be wearing his mask in the mess room

You know wearing masks in combat has a serious effect, I've done some training with my TA Unit while wearing Gasmasks and I really did feel like I was watching someone else do all the work. As if it wasnt me holding the Rifle and shooting up those targets.
I suppose then that perhaps Gustav feels detached from battle while in his Mask, and feels that its some other primal instinct doing all that vicious killing. Fantabulous armour as well might have something to do with that.

I've been told its not an uncommon feeling.

Could explain why most special forces wear some form of Gasmask or other derivative I guess. Phycological Warfare is a big thing these days.
'Sides, Gas Masks and Rebreathers are cool.

His willingness to wear fabulous purple armor does him credit.

Sounds like a swell guy. Gotta love a dual personality complex.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
To me, his split personality while wearing the mask might be attributed to the mask itself also having a chem inhaler, the same kind of thing the Savlar Chem Dogs use to make them a bunch of psycho crazies. Then again I'm the over analytical type.

Ah, plausible thought, but its just a re-breather, with maybe an hour or so of oxygen.

I'm really likin' that quote of his, probably thinkin' about it a lil' to much!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's not my own creation (as with many of these quotes, they are lifted from history) but it is very much appropriate to him. It's a good one.

I can only hope in my heart of hearts that if you aren't doing so already, you will be modeling miniatures of these characters at some point in the future.

I can't model for toffee

Do artisans, particularly popular ones, get drafted frequently in the Imperium? I would have thought that they'd have left them alone to keep the proletariat happy.
Just outta curiosity, what is the purpose of all these characters? And are they original creations?

These are just character profiles for the many troops from the Ragged Edges stories I write. I thought it'd be fun to make bios for them I guess. They are of my own creation.

This is quite the turn from the little wuss I'd first observed.
Damn, he is scary.

A bit of a dude is Myers, when it's time to get some killing done.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
He's kinda like an Eldar Aspect Warrior. Expensive guns, bright armor, and a split personality that's a lot better at fighting.

hmmm...has any of his officers checked his ears I wonder?

Heh. He has got a bit of that, yeah.

Anything strong enough to destroy the mask, I feel, would not leave much of his head either.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
so no small ams fire could destroy it
what the hell is it made out of
👍: 0 ⏩: 1

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Standard issue for his former unit.

When i saw this guy, i instantly started to think Leatherface, though he's mask is perhaps more like Jason's. It was maybe that chainsword...
Tash'n chainsword murderer in theatres M42.00000!
