Here is my entry. It is just directly lifted from the other thread, I don't know how to quote from a different thread.

It was the first summer after the re-colonisation of Malifaux and after the initial fear this brought, a wave of optimism was sweeping through the human inhabitants of the city.

A summer celebration was planned, a festival for all those who had ventured through the breach. Everyone looked forward to the carefree weekend ahead, even the Guild seemed more relaxed in their ways than normal.

Little did they know that the great musician Jimmy E. Quinox - booked to headline the event - had diverted much of his great wealth and influence in mastering the dark arts of necromancy, and now all would gather to see his finest symphony...

Where the swamps give way to beaches, the ocean calls those parched by their prolonged stay in Malifaux’s unforgiving climate. Rumors have it that on these beaches, away from the prying eyes of the Guild, there are communes where life is a massive party, where glistening, golden-bodied men flex their muscles for fawning women in scanty bathing suits. The food is never ending, warm sun beats down by day and bonfires rage in the night. What the tales do not tell is that these refuges are the domain of Helios, Neverborn master of the sun and fire, and his minions have their own idea of what makes a good party.

Helios

Neverborn Master (40mm)

Cache 3

Bearing a golden tan and rippling muscles, Helios leads parties of all description on the beaches of Malifaux. The promise of an endless summer bash, however, comes at a price: the Neverborn who dance around the bonfires and frolic in the waves burn those they touch with the heat of summer, and pick the charred flesh from the seared bones of their victims.

As an old west tune plays, a man stands in the distance with an ominous aura about him(que old west wah wah waaaah). The man holds a sword but in truth the sword holds the man. Gripped by the spirit of the sword Djaingo wanders and brings spirits to form other wepons that imitate but never quite coppies the true sword. With every kill the sword foms man into a wepon, greater than his former existance, sharpening his being until ready to be wielded by another. This day Djaingo is not a man but the will of his sword made manifest. And what the sword wills only its keeper kaijimbo, a lost demon who knows how to care for the sword, shall keep its secrets.
