Description

Finally! My newest drawing, one of my most detailed drawings ever is ready. Enjoy!

In this drawing you can see three Temple Guards in futuristic part of my universes timeline.
After cataclysm know as Rain of Blood, Temple Guard became regular fighting force, elite of Shata'lin military. Male Temple Guards are usually crewmen of vehicles, technicians etc. while females are warriors.
Every single female Temple Guard is potent psyker on her own. They are also equipped with best weapons and armor Shata'lin can provide. Here, you can see the most common type of armor Temple Guard uses - so called Rosa armor. It is modified version of standard medium armor, used by champions of regular guard. It is suited for female body shape, armor plates are tougher and better profiled, generators are also better. This type of armor is designed to enhance psychic abilities of its owner. It is one of two kinds of armor (second are heavy command armors) equipped with shield generator. Weapons are also unique and designed for psykers. They don't use standard ammo but rather psychic powers of their owners.
Female Temple Guards are ones of the best Shata'lin soldiers, elite able to neutralize any threat.
In this drawing you can see two regular Temple Guards and champion - note her special, customized armor and scars on her once beautiful face.

EDIT: I have found a name for the champion in the middle :) Nagatsani - sounds pretty in my opinion. So, she is no longer a random character ^.=.^

After few months of reading and viewing your artworks and references, I am indeed found it very interesting and would like to propose a long story of fan-fiction. It's about a human castaway from post-Imbuia warfare accidentally encountering a small group of Temple guards on-duty, and barely convince them the hatred from humanity is weakened (it's a timeline that Red Hammer hasn't entirely united as a faction yet) for his survival. He may ended up into big humility from Shata'lin's lessons and interrogations, but also an opportunity to prove his worth and serve the temple guards together. Usually the story will be quite centric to few temple guards, and fighting will be a typical routine of their duties, until the protagonist (human castaway) is capable enough to join them to assist.

It may sounds like a wild attempt to put a human character into Shata'lin universe and learn with them, but I kinda think this concept could work if you could provide some lore to guide me. I will provide some questions if you think this story have potential to be expanded. :)
