The Weaver Option is a Worm/Warhammer 40,000 crossover fic by Antony444. It can be found at fanfiction.net and alternatehistory.com (now continued in multiple threads, starting here). An authorized spinoff fanfic, "The Emperor and Sons React to The Weaver Option" can be found at spacebattles.com.In the 45th Millennium, the God-Emperor of Mankind has sat upon the Golden Throne for a hundred and fifty centuries, but his reign is coming to an end. For with the fall of the Cadian Gate in the 13th Black Crusade, the forces of the Ruinous Powers have spilled out of the Eye of Terror into the Imperium. The vast armies that the God-Emperor could command are dwindling, and the light of the Astronomicon will soon fade.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })But the thirsting gods are not laughing, for from the void between galaxies, a new and greater threat has emerged: Hive Fleet Sidious, a Tyranid swarm ten times larger than Hive Fleets Behemoth, Kraken and Leviathan combined, followed by three more Hive Fleets of similar and/or greater size. With all other factions weakened by the endless war between the Imperium and Chaos, they crush everything in their path by sheer weight of numbers. In an act of desperation, the last surviving Chaos warband dedicates itself to a ritual to summon a champion into the past, in order to change history and create a galaxy better prepared to face the Tyranid menace. But during the final stages of the ritual, the ceremony is disrupted by the last of the Ultramarines. The summoning was completed, but the Champion's soul was not attuned to Chaos before being pulled through time, instead arriving as a free agent.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Tens of thousands of years in the past in an alternate reality, reformed supervillain and probationary superhero Taylor "Weaver" Hebert is fighting a losing battle trying to protect New Delhi from the Endbringer known as Behemoth when she suddenly disappears in a flash of light.Ten thousand years before the last battle against Sidious, the Imperial world of Fay is under attack by Orks. With the bulk of their forces wiped out by an unwise frontal assault led by a incompetent general, the world's last hope of holding out until the Guard can arrive from out-system lies in the Fay 20th, a battered regiment sent back to its homeworld for a refounding after a devastating defeat from another Ork horde, now pressed into defending the pass controlling the fastest route from the Ork's landing site to the populated regions of the world. As the attack begins, a tall woman appears in a sudden flash of light and disrupts the advance of the xenos vanguard by calling forth swarms of insects to blind and distract the enemy, allowing the 20th to seize victory from the jaws of certain massacre.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })The Weaver Option has begun. | |

Villain's Dying Grace | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_1207d30 | comment |
Villain's Dying Grace: Sliscus uses his dying moments to warn Taylor about the Queen of Blades and that she should destroy his soul as the Ruinous Powers would turn it into a weapon. Somewhat subverted when it's later revealed he sent the Queen of Blades a message gushing about how much fun she would find fighting Taylor to be. | |

Overranked Soldier | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_1230e19e | comment |
Overranked Soldier: Taylor appears in the future at age sixteen. Outside of Death Worlds like Catachan or Fortress Worlds like Cadia, the only people her age in the military are those who lied to the recruiters about her age. She ends up having subordinates old enough to be her grandfather. After the Battles of Ramev's Pass, Taylor becomes a Major. During the Battle of the Death Star, she has to take charge as Acting Colonel, and in its aftermath she receives so many decorations that her rank jumps to Major General. After being awarded the Star of Terra, she becomes a full-blown General, and her name begins to sound strong for becoming the Warmaster should a Crusade ever be called in the Segmentum. Some of the future texts reveal she will end up with the new rank of Star Marshal, a rank that only one other person will share in the next millenia, the one who would have become Lord Solar Macharius in the original timeline. | |

No OSHA Compliance: OSHA doesn't exist in the Imperium, but some things in the Dark City are so unsafe that humans and transhumans raiding the place are forced to take note of. One notable example is having foundries next door to munitions dumps. | |

The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_19d06ef7 | comment |
A Father to His Men: Taylor uses her powers to shield her men and make it less likely for them to die, applies her connections so as to obtain the necessary war matériel for their military actions, arranges everything she has in hand to ensure they gain their well-earned rewards and that widows and orphans will receive pensions, and visits them in the hospital after the battle to check on their status. | |

Underestimating Badassery: Taylor's enemies tend to do this. They never learn the lesson - because they die. Grevyth Xelian thought he could browbeat the human prisoner he found. Pity that it was Rogal Dorn, who promptly curb-stomped him. | |

The Purge | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_1c263b9f | comment |
The Purge: After his predecessor's death, Admiral Mikasev began conducting a purge of "traitors" on his new flagship. By the time the crew finally took its revenge, he had executed ten percent of the personnel and had just announced his intent to kill even more. Taylor does one of the corrupt Nyx nobility after taking office, forming entire Penal Legions from those found guilty of crimes. | |

Reality Ensues | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_1d9a2764 | comment |
Reality Ensues: The reason why Weaver is so hugely popular among the masses? She's a doer, while politicians are only talkers. In spite of becoming a Living Saint, Taylor still has paperwork to fill out. And political debates to navigate. No, Odysseus Tor isn't the only Inquisitor affected to Nyx. The workload is such that he needs thirteen colleagues, and they're still stretched thin. Operation Caribbean's complete victory shows the difference between a properly prepared and led military fleet versus a loose coalition of various pirates. A good portion of the pirates end up dying in a suicidal rush to engage with the Imperium while the other fleets fall one-by-one. When one of Sliscus's subordinates muses it's unfortunate they don't have insecticide handy, he points out that Taylor's array of insects obviously originates from multiple different worlds. Even if they had insecticide on hand it would maybe affect one or two species. Even if the Warp is twisted like a pretzel when it comes down to time and space, it still has to obey the laws of causality. So, when the Raid on Commorragh begins to destroy the source of the large source of power that were the Dark Eldar for Slaanesh, it begins to lose the power it drew from the Dark Eldars' future victimes, causing a paradox that erases millions of daemons from existence. The Biel-Tan forces are so obsessed with the idea of finally killing Taylor that they let the chance blind them to the reality that the Drukhari are unlikely to see them as saviors and more like expendable troops. Sure enough, when the Biel-Tan fleet enters Commorragh, the local defenders send them to the meatgrinder at Port Shard - straight into the waiting Necrons and their captured C'tan. The raid on Commorragh brings out the worst in the Drukhari. The Dynasts kill commanders who fail in battle meaning whatever lessons they might have gleaned from defeat are lost. Soldiers turn on one another because they have been taught to seize any chance for advancement. Forces equipped to fight slaves die in droves against soldiers with actual armor and weapons. When a call is sent to all Imperial forces to assist in the raid on Commorragh very few are actually able to do so. Readying a ship or army to deploy is impossible in the short time available, meaning only ships that were already prepped and en route to different battles are able to join the assault. On the other hand, the craftworld Eldar are able to use their Webway gates to deploy multiple fleets and armies with minimal delay in support of Commorragh. | |

Royals Who Actually Do Something | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_1edfa2c7 | comment |
Royals Who Actually Do Something: The heir of a Nyx noble took to act as a vigilante, stopping crimes carried out by other nobles. Taylor, noting that she was Not So Different, allows her father to peacefully resign his position in his daughter's favor as long as she stops her vigilante act. Valentin Seigneleas, chief comptroller of finance spends nearly all of his time vigorously carrying out his duties with an incredible eye for detail, and a seemingly inexhaustible level of energy. | |

Good Is Not Nice: Saint Weaver is a compassionate, far-thinking, capable young girl who is A Mother To Her Men And Women and funds orphanages and charities with the prizes she earns thanks to her heroics. She is also a ruthless governor who has no problems with purging the Nyx Sector nobility, sending millions to their deaths in Penal Legions, letting the Inquisition torture the worst of them or even sentencing particularly vile ones to long and painful deaths. | |

Magnificent Bastard: Trazyn the Infinite is most definitely one, all in his search for new things to add to his collection. The Emperor as well: it is implied he gave the Nebula Shard to Trazyn because he knew the Necron would end up giving it to Taylor, so she could use it to defeat Ka'Bandha. He also takes advantage of Tzeentch creating a Shadowpoint to increase its power and prevent Chaos from learning about the Raid of Commorragh until it is too late for them to prevent it. | |

The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_24321e44 | comment |
Only Sane Man: Farseer Filgonilth Sirethmoren and Autarch Jirkanith Maloskilen are the only few members of Craftworld Biel-Tan who realizes their people's very militaristic campaign in restoring their empire and waging endless wars against all space-faring races would only destroy themselves as they couldn't afford the logistics and numbers than the Orks and Imperium. Unfortunately for them, their efforts to convince the High Council to reconsider has fall on deaf ears and in turn are deemed as "disgraced elders." Filgonilth is deeply appalled over the High Council's decision to enter the fray in Commorragh and siding with the Dark Eldar against Weaver, and argued against this. The High Council are not swayed by his warnings and instead banished him from Biel-Tan for "uncountable breaches of protocol", prompting Filgonilth to evacuate his supporters to Malan'tai. | |

Fire-Forged Friends: Downplayed with Taylor and Commissar Zuhev. He first believes she ought to be killed for being potentially tainted by the Warp while she's disgusted by his ruthlessness. As battles keep coming, Zuhev decides Weaver is more useful an ally than dead while Taylor grows to appreciate Zuhev's efficiency and ability to walk the walk. | |

Post-Victory Collapse: Taylor faints after the First Battle of Ramev's Pass, because she's been awake and has barely eaten or drunk anything since hours before the Battle of New Delhi (which was long and incredibly distressing). Also after the fight against Ka'Bandha, due to the injuries she has suffered and the overwhelming nature of becoming a Living Saint. | |

Persona Non Grata: Trazyn's presence isn't exactly welcomed in Necron worlds given his pathological kleptomania. In one occasion, he even gets captured and dragged in chains to the planetary ruler even though he really was only passing by. | |

Extremely Short Timespan | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_281de59f | comment |
When a call is sent to all Imperial forces to assist in the raid on Commorragh very few are actually able to do so. Readying a ship or army to deploy is impossible in the short time available, meaning only ships that were already prepped and en route to different battles are able to join the assault. On the other hand, the craftworld Eldar are able to use their Webway gates to deploy multiple fleets and armies with minimal delay in support of Commorragh. | |

Sunk Cost Fallacy: The Biel-Tan High Farseer agrees to enter the fray in Commorragh, further adding two fifths of all deployed Eldar forces, plus four Craftworlds' armies, in an attempt to take down Weaver, to the despair of the one Farseer who knows Commorragh is an irredeemable hellhole and that the Eldar forces aren't likely to fare any better than the two times they've confronted Weaver before. Slaanesh continues to follow its plan of sending legion after legion into Commorragh long after the point that its obvious this will only make things worse. It at least has the excuse of being insane. | |

The Dreaded: Weaver earns the eternal enmity of the Eldar for possessing the Nebula's Shard that has slain many of their kin, and being indirectly responsible for Trazyn capturing an entire Eldar fleet at the Battle of the Death Star, and invading Commorragh. Lelith Hesperax is this to the Necrons. Her appearance makes Trazyn the Infinite get serious, briefly fighting her with weaponry that would be overkill for anyone else, which still does nothing more than prolong his defeat. | |

Dirty Business: During the razing of Commorragh Taylor orders mass bombardments and declares an Exterminatus. She doesn't care about the Dark Eldars dying to these attacks but rather the billions of innocent slaves dying with them. Despite this she knows she can't save them; her force is vastly outnumbered and would quickly become bogged down trying to free even a fraction of the slaves, getting everyone killed. | |

Not Helping Your Case: Taylor points out to Marshal Markward of the Black Templars that the reason history tends to repeat itself is because no one bothers to pay attention the first time, something the Black Templars' penchant for destroying or modifying historical records do nothing to help. Markward promptly exclaims that the enemy can only be defeated by crushing them and erasing every trace of their existence from history. Taylor is not impressed. | |

Plunder | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_3511c4d7 | comment |
Plunder: The Fay 20th and their allies loot the very plentiful weapons, ammo, and armour that were plundered by the Orks on the Battle Moon and keeping their war effort going. They also find and secure some valuable archeotech from the ruins there, including a Standard Template Construct Database. Operation Caribbean sees the Imperial forces successfully recapture two Malta starforts, take the remnants of the Rashan as a protectorate member, claim several trillion throne gelts, as well as several PLANETS, in bounties, take treasures including Vulkan's Gauntlet of the Forge from captured ships, and ransom an Eldar fleet for millions of tons of adamantium. The greatest plunder is discovered on the Empire of Sin in Sliscus's vault which contains, aside from literal hills of coins and jewels, keys to the Web-Way, Eldar weapons, and Primarch Vulkan's Obsidian Chariot. Taylor does dampen the mood when plundering the vault as she points out all of this came from Sliscus and his forces raiding countless worlds, many of which were destroyed in the process. The raid on Commorragh proves to be even more rewarding. Aside from the fortunes in raw materials, the Imperium also recovers vast amounts of cultural treasures stolen in raids, multiple sacred Imperial relics, and stores of human archaeotech including multiple functioning STCs, perhaps the only remaining STC copy that was created by the Emperor himself to improve upon the STC design, and components for the Golden Throne. | |

Know When To Fold Them: Tziz Jarek, the third Imperial Assassin sent after Taylor, decides to accept her employment offer when it becomes obvious she is not going to succeed any time soon. Ulion Lakadieth stops fighting and tries to negotiate for his safe passage as he sees Weaver tearing through his fellow pirate lords, although he's forced to pay a heftier ransom for his safe passage than he would have if he'd left earlier. Lox'ena, when cornered with her family, chooses to negotiate rather than make a Last Stand, and while unhappy with the terms being offered, considers them preferable to certain death. | |

Foregone Conclusion | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_3bc88a7f | comment |
Foregone Conclusion: The Fictional Document quotes at the start of every chapter go on to state that Taylor's achievements will eventually get her declared a Living Saint, which of course requires her to live long enough to gain such a reputation. Other quotes trace back to the memoirs of people who knew her, which requires that they live long enough to write them as well. Taylor is going to live well over 114 years, based on the length of the First Age of the Saint. Taylor will also reach the rank of Star Marshal, a rank that would in the Original Timeline be Lord Solar. The rank that Macharius was given in the Original Timeline (Lord Solar). Macharius will also reach his rank equivalent in the new time line (Star Marshal) | |

While repeatedly failing to stop the Imperium-Necron alliance razing Commorragh and unable to find Asdrubael Vect, he blames his failures on his Admirals and Lords and had them impaled alive for several hundred cycles. He then ordered their replacements to do their jobs right or suffer the same fate as their predecessors. | |

The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_3d2c6d30 | comment |
Skewed Priorities: Downplayed, but when being told that she and her family will be taken prisoner instead of let go like Lakadieth was, Lox'ena demands to know why, and upon being told that one of the reasons was the ransom he paid for himself, indignantly protests that was far more than the ransom on his head, and calls Taylor an extortionist, forgetting about her own situation for a moment. One of the biggest hurdles that prevent the Dark Eldar from forging a worthwhile defense is that they keep putting their grudges and internal fights before the Imperial-Necron attack. When Taylor demonstrates her ability to control their insectoid pit beasts, the Dark Eldar order the slaughter of all "compromised" species. Due to Taylor staggering when she takes control of different species, a large portion of the Dark Eldar military elite is bogged down killing caged animals rather than fighting on the front lines. | |

Nay-Theist: Even after being empowered as a Living Saint by the Emperor, Taylor firmly refuses to believe that He's actually a god and not just an extremely powerful human, with Cyrene lampshading the Irony. This makes perfect sense, given the powerful parahumans Taylor met, fought, and defeated (or even killed in the case of Alexandria) on Earth Bet, and what happened to her world thanks to Scion, who was defeated despite his vast power. | |

Zerg Rush: Subverted. While Taylor can muster an army in the millions, this is the Imperium of Man. As immense as it is by our standards, it is still only what she can raise on her own authority and nowhere near what the Imperium as a whole could leverage. Played straight later with her insects. Any enemy they defeat is devoured in order to birth new, combat-ready insects, meaning the swarm is continuously growing even as it is fighting. The tactic employed by the Drukhari conscripts in Commorragh. It doesn't work. | |

Heroes Gone Fishing: The Dawnbreaker Guards are shown decorating a church or tending to a garden — their gene-sire having left them an appreciation for arts and beauty. Meanwhile, Taylor takes up to hand-writing and illustrating a book about the Dawnbreaker Guards. | |

Shoot the Messenger | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_4276401c | comment |
Shoot the Messenger The Governor of Matapan, when told by his Lieutenant that a Fleet of over three hundred ships has appeared over the planet and is most likely led by Lady Nyx, AKA Taylor and the person he's plotting to overthrow, he declares him a "liar" and has him executed for "peddling blatant false information". He later has four of his Admirals and three Generals executed and declared traitors after their soldiers all died or mutinied against Nyx's assault. He also tried to have one of his Colonels executed as well after said Colonel corrected him that their Regiments were grossly outnumbered by Nyx, but was stopped by a Space Marine breaking through the walls of his bunker. The Dark Eldar Dynasts usual action against anyone bringing them bad messages is to have them impaled or worse. One Dynast does eventually relent, but only because he's started to run low on capable messengers. Tzeentch does not kill his messengers, but instead makes them wish they were dead through horrible and humiliating mutations. | |

Inadvertent Entrance Cue: While trying to find a way to open the Webway Gate between the Desaderian System and Commorragh, an Imperial Guard general states that a Black Templar ship will be crippled by the Dark Eldars manning the Gate, barring a miracle of the God-Emperor. Cue the arrival of the Gloriana-class Battleship Flamewrought just as the Gate is opened. The Dark Eldar are quickly finished off, allowing the troops at the Desaderian System to join the Raid. | |

You Have Failed Me: Seemingly the only way the Drukhari know how to encourage their subordinates is by killing one who has failed and appointing someone else to do their job. Taylor is willing to employ this on any of her command staff who prove to be criminally incompetent and unwilling to change their ways. | |

It's also an Infinity +1 Sword in terms of armor among non Trans-human armors available, and normal versions of the Angel's Tear don't leave their users wanting either. | |

Reassignment Backfire: The Fabricator of Quayrian assigns one of his political rivals, Archmagos Thayer Sagami, to command the HMHMS Enterprise, expecting to get him out of the way for a full decade and perhaps killed (due to Lady Weaver's risky tendencies). Six years later, he is in command of the flagship of the fleet that destroys the Pavia pirate haven and razes Commorragh, retrieving in the process a large number of valuable archeotech, including two of the Artifacts of Vulkan. | |

We Have Become Complacent: The dark forge worlds realize, after Dragon's new dragon-armors deliver a Curb-Stomp Battle to a force of Heldrakes, that they've become too assured of the Heldrake's superiority and now have no means to counter them. Mused on with regards to the invasion of Commorragh. The rulers had considered possible invasions but ultimately felt them so unlikely to pose an actual threat that the standing defenses proved completely ineffective. The military forces of Commorragh are noted to be inept when it comes to waging war. Millennia of always controlling when and where they fought to avoid real combat has left them with no actual experience on modern battlefield. | |

The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_5148024 | comment |
Locked into Strangeness: After the Battle of the Death Star and her fight against Ka'Bandha, Taylor's black hair acquires a golden strand and her skin has a slight glow to it because of her mystical contact with the Emperor during the fight. During Taylor's psychic fight with the Tyranid on Catachan, the Emperor's psychic might going through her turns even more of her hair gold and her skins glow becomes more noticeable. By the end of the Shadowpoint arc, only a small amount of black hair remains behind her left ear, and the intensity of her glowing skin has doubled. And then reverted during the Raid on Commorragh, where her hair returns to its previous black color - while she gains a pair of enormous golden wings. | |

As of the Extermination arc, she is a Living Saint of the Emperor (with golden energy wings), carrying the Nebula's Shard (a weapon from the War in Heaven forged by the Eldar god Vaul), a Baal ruby that was a relic of Sanguinius himself that allows Taylor to act as the Barrier Maiden protecting the Blood Angels from the Black Rage, and the Angel's Tear, which may be the best non-Astartes Powered Armor in the entire galaxy. Even Space Marines are in awe of her. | |

Reassigned to Antarctica: Andes Primus is a barely-populated backwater with no tactical or logistic value. The various powers of the Imperium treat it as a dumping ground for scapegoats, embarrassments, and the insane. The survivors of the Ulm 2nd were dumped there to cover up the idiocy of their Lord Commander while Tech-Priest Dragon was located in the same area as a Heretek factorum. Pius Hoth viewed his appointment as Cardinal of Kerguelen as this, noting that the Sector had few resources, no high society to rub elbows with, and, most importantly, a lack of donations to the Cardinal. | |

Instead they tortured and killed on a massive scale, forcing her and the troops under her command to make many sacrifices to put an end to their evil once and for all. | |

Badass Normal: The Imperial Guard is formed by normal men and women armed with lasguns and wearing flak-jackets. Of course it is full of these. Commissar Zuhev becomes the stuff of legends by rallying the Fay 20th's 4th Company into battle and killing twelve Khorne Berserkers, including a Champion of Khorne (though it should be noted that several of these kills consisted of him finishing off foes who had been repeatedly shot by his subordinates). | |

Heroic Sacrifice | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_6439de78 | comment |
Heroic Sacrifice: A Wuhanese soldier jumps between Ka'Bandha's spear and Taylor, giving her just enough time to stand up and hand Ka'Bandha an Emperor-level beating. Theodora Gaius throws herself in the path of Fulgrim's blades. Her armor is easily pierced and she is fatally wounded, but she is able to shield Rogal Dorn and hold the blades still long enough for her fellow soldiers to disarm Fulgrim. This will possibly also lead to the healing, and return, of Ultramarines Primarch Roboute Guilleman | |

Meaningful Name | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Taylor decides to request that the name of the system where the Battle of the Death Star took place changes to "Brockton". As anyone with knowledge of the series knows, it is an incredibly appropiate name for a former war zone. There's a reason why the space station Leet has been forcibly emplaced is nicknamed Danger-Prototype-Central. The architect charged to design and build the Hagia Sanguinala is named Cyrene Versailles, as the famous French castle. The military operation to defeat the pirates in the Pavia System is called Operation Caribbean. The military operation aimed at attacking Commorragh to destroy its main infrastructure and kill as many Dark Eldar as possible is named Pearl Harbor - as it begins with a surprise attack on a large port that takes the defenders completely by surprise. | |

Of course, she then finds more of said relics. | |

Godzilla Threshold | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_72856b70 | comment |
Godzilla Threshold: Being forced to head towards an Ork Battle Moon, and eventually land on it and fight a massive horde is enough for the Tech-Priests to give Taylor some of the insects that they were holding back on giving her because they were really nasty. They also greenlight Dragon using her dragon-armor for fighting. Faced against Necrons during the Raid of Commorragh, the Drukhari have to bite the bullet and issue a call for the Aeldari to help them stop the attack. A treaty forbids the Dynasts from deploying their backlog of doomsday weapons due to sheer scale of collateral damage they cause. This goes out the window when the Imperium begins tearing through their fortresses. Knowing that it is close to losing all of their power because of the Raid, Slaanesh sends Fulgrim in to attack. With limited time to complete their objectives in the raid on Commorragh and with rapidly depleting supplies, Clockblocker very reluctantly gives Leet the order to bring out "Case Cthulhu, Horribilis-1". | |

From Bad to Worse: It was bad enough that the Imperial Forces have to land on an Ork Battle Moon and fight an Ork WAAAAGH!. Then the Biel-Tan Eldar sent a group to attack them after their previous defeat. And then a Chaos fleet arrived - led by Greater Daemon Ka'Bandha. Played for Laughs as Clockblocker and Leet tell Vista the number of commendations and awards Taylor has just earned in the Battle of the Death Star. The raid on Commorragh starts with an Imperial armada, supported by Necrons, invading one of the sub-realms of the Dark City. The Drukhari reinforcements were expected; 66666 Daemonic Legions of Slaanesh were not. | |

For Want of a Nail | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_79a60aec | comment |
For Want of a Nail: The arrival of parahumans in the Imperium has caused changes to both the Imperium and Earth Bet, such as: The sudden disappearance of the Queen Administrator Shard angers Scion to the point where he starts the Gold Morning two years early. The scene before Taylor gets pulled into the future shows that the plan to defeat Behemoth in New Delhi was a failure, with only a couple dozen capes still alive (with most of them injured and all irradiated) just before the ritual took effect. Taylor's arrival allows the Fay 20th to hold Ramev's Pass against the Orks, which likely stops that Ork warband from inflicting tens of millions if not billions of casualties before it was stopped in the original history - Eldar farsight held that the Warboss of that horde would have devastated at least three other planets before being stopped. Taylor helping stop Iash'uddra prevents the elimination of an entire Hive, and causes the Imperium to learn of the existence of the Necrons a good 5,000 years before their first confirmed (read: had surviving witnesses) canonical encounter at Sanctuary 101. Dragon's arrival allows for the Mechanicus to successfully reconstruct a Great Crusade-era tank from recovered archeotech, and she also gets to introduce other ideas like her Dragon armor. The Imperial forces at the Ork Battle Moon manage to successfully retrieve a Standard Template Construct Database. During the withdrawal from that battle, enemy losses include the Chaos Battleship Certamen Ferale, the entire World Eaters Successor Warband crewing it, and the Greater Bloodthirster Ka'Bandha, with the destruction of the former two significantly weakening Khorne's elite non-daemonic forces and the banishment of the latter freeing the Blood Angels and their Successor Chapters from the Black Rage (or at least substantially reducing the risk of falling to it), along with a minimum of half a billion Orks and a fleet of Biel-Tan warships. With the Inquisition taking much interest in the Vandire Clan, it is likely the Age of Apostasy will either be prevented or happen in a different way. The Reign of Blood, for instance, is going to be known as the Reign of Terror. Trazyn's interest towards Taylor results in him selling his stock of more than seventeen thousand first-generation 3rd Legion progenoid glands to her instead of to Fabius Bile, which significantly reduces the ability of the Emperor's Children to reproduce, and possibly allow the Imperium to create a dozen additional new Astartes Chapters the next time a Founding is declared. Taylor's taking control of a Catachan ant puts her in contact with the Tyranid Hivemind, which again causes a first confirmed (had surviving witnesses) contact with a 41st Millennium threat eons in advance. Taylor has been advocating sending an expeditionary fleet to the Svalbard sector to reduce the Ork population there. Svalbard is home to the Forge World of Tigrus, which in the OTL was conquered by the Orks in M35 and lost to the Imperium for millennia, significantly weakening Imperial logistics in the area. The Battle of Pavia eliminates the thirteen largest pirate fleets in the Rimward Segmentum Pacificus, and includes among the spoils the Gauntlet of the Forge and the Obsidian Chariot, two of the nine Artifacts of Vulkan believed by the Salamanders and their Successor Chapters to contain clues on how to find their missing Primarch - the first found on 722.M41, the second still missing as of M42 in the original timeline. Instead of the Sisters of Battle, the female religious army is called the Templar Sisters, and they are founded by Taylor. The combined Imperial-Necron assault on Commorragh and massacre of the Dark Eldar not only deprives the survivors from their only stable base in the entire universe, it also allows the Imperials to recover the Salamanders' Forgehammer before the Eldar can try to get in and makes the Commorragh Raid more spectacular, as the raid will now include over six hundred more Astartes, millions of Guardsmen, Skitarii and Frateris Templars, and a Necron fleet. Said raid was also originally Just as Planned by Vect. This time it is not happening on his time schedule, and since during the battle of Pavia multiple Artifacts of Vulkan had been discovered the Salamanders had been contacted and were no doubt on their way, ensuring that their arrival will be earlier then it was in the original timeline. The Mark of Commorragh will likely destroy the main source of power of Slaanesh, irreversibly. Due to Taylor's raid, Rogal Dorn is freed from an otherwise inescapable prison. Tzeentch is forced to disperse a warp storm, freeing an Imperial warship: The Flamewrought, Vulkan's personal battleship, still crewed by Great Crusade-era Marines. The blades of Fulgrim are captured by the Imperium and Archmagos Cawl believes he will be able to use the poison on the blades to engineer a cure for Primarch Guillman several millennia early. | |

An Offer You Can't Refuse: Taylor offers Nostradamus Vandire a trial and swift execution in exchange of the names of all his co-conspirators and the places where he has stashed all the money he has stolen. When Nostradamus interrupts her and rejects the offer, Taylor reveals the other option: being tortured by the Inquisition until he reveals the names of his co-conspirators and the places where he has stashed all the money he has stolen - and then he will be turned into the first volunteer of the 1st Nyx Pureblood Penal Legion.

Right for the Wrong Reasons: Mikasev orders Fay's SDF to go after a small "pirate ship", a ship that could have been easily handled by a part of the SDF while the rest helped in the defence of Fay. Unknown to him (and everyone else), said "pirate ship" is actually the ship of a Chaos warband, and its destruction strands the warband in Fay - right on time to leave them in the path of the advancing Ork army, which kills them all and frees a Rubric Marine to do a Heel–Face Turn. | |

Bling of War: Much to her chagrin, Taylor gets pretty much wrangled into wearing golden power armor, as befitting a Saint. She draws the line at wearing anything made by Leet, though. She is later given the Angel's Tear, the first models of power armor and weapons made from the templates she recovered, made out of gold and even more expensive materials. The pirate Lord-Count Quintus 'Gold' Kalmar wears golden armor. | |

Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_8a817c2a | comment |
Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil: If there is something Taylor hates more than rape, is people that use their power to extort sexual favors - and above that, people who rape children. One Nyx noble that had been doing the latter for decades is sent straight away to a long, painful death by hanging. | |

Name That Unfolds Like Lotus Blossom | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_91f9b1ad | comment |
Name That Unfolds Like Lotus Blossom: The name the Imperium uses for Taylor's sword, the Nebula's Shard, is a loose translation of the Eldar name Elsar'bryn. The literal translation is something closer to "Song of the Nebula Tearing through the Heavens". The simple translation of the Eldar title given to Taylor, Maelsha’eil Dannan, is "Angel of Death". The literal translation is "The Burning Angel Governing the Cycle of Entropy". | |

Not So Above It All: Taylor is not above getting revenge on Dragon for teasing her about Wei Cao by teasing her about Archmagos Lydia-Beta Rosamund. Similarly, for all that they are "inhumane", the Tech-Priests can be worse gossips than most humans when it concerns interesting information. Also, the Space Marines that form the Dawnbreaker Guard are quite willing to laugh at Taylor's expense when she is embarrassed by anything. | |

Dynast Maestros Xelian.

Revenge Before Reason: The Biel-Tan launch a punitive raid to avenge the loss of one of their raiding parties, ignoring the fact that it only happened because its leader picked a fight with someone out of his weight class. After being defeated twice by Weaver, the Biel-Tan believed they can surely end Weaver by siding with the Drukhari along with four other Craftworlds that are willing to heed the Drukhari's aid to defend Commorragh. | |

Superweapon Surprise: After carving their way through the Pavia pirates, Operation Caribbean discovers Sliscus's secret weapon: The space hulk Empire of Sin has been made mobile and equipped with Dark Eldar shields and a massively powerful cannon. The Dynasts attempt this on the Imperial forces, pulling out forbidden weapons from sealed vaults. It turns out Taylor was expecting that response and was using expendable insect minions as cannon fodder. | |

Awesome Moment of Crowning: Taylor is basically acknowledged as a Living Saint when the Blood Angels assemble, thank her for battling their Primarch's Arch-Enemy and kneel before her. More low-key with the Astartes Decathlon, a sport competition intended to track promising recruits for the Chapters. The winner is granted the laurel wreath by Lady Nyx herself and is publically declared an aspirant. Taylor, after learning that she fits the criteria, declares herself the new Aeldari Empress in order to gain control of a Core Gate and reshape the Webway. While this ends the Chaos assault on the Golden Throne, it also ensures Taylor must duel Lelith Hesperax. | |

General Failure | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_a01f88a7 | comment |
General Failure: Ivan Byukur was dismissed from the Guard in disgrace after he got his entire armored regiment wiped out by lightly-armed rebels. Despite this, his father, the Governor of Fay, made him "Exalted Marshal" and assigned him to fight the Ork invasion of Fay. Which he promptly bungled, getting the best-equipped of their ground forces wiped out in one engagement. Admiral Mikasev, Byukur's counterpart in the SDF, wasn't any better. Immediately after replacing a more competent Admiral, he proceeded to kill a tenth of the flagship's crew for no reason at all, completely screwed up the defense of the planet, ordered the use of excessive firepower against a single ship and then stated he would have even more crewmen killed. It is no wonder that the crew, led by the Mechanicus members, mutinied in order to help save Fay. The Ulm 2nd were assigned to a grossly incompetent Lord Commander. For twenty days he sent the 2nd, a unit consisting solely of cavalry, against a well-defended fortress. The result was a one-sided massacre and the General commanding the Ulm who tried to protest the orders was disappeared. The slaughter only ended with the Lord Commissar executed the Lord Commander. The officers selected by the Munitorum to serve as Division and Corps commanders for Operation Caribbean are almost exclusively this for a variety of reasons. There are a handful of competent officers whose careers had stalled for political reasons, but they're vastly outnumbered by the washouts, burnouts, and outright incompetents, not to mention the ones willing to sacrifice entire armies for their own glory. | |

There is a ninth, female, Parahuman, revealed to have become a follower of Tzeentch. Called "Malicia, the Destiny Unwritten", her identity has not been established.note It is a Worm character Taylor personally knows and who is not Tattletale, Dinah Alcott, or Emma Barnes There is also the possibility that the Simurgh survived the destruction of their original dimension. | |

The Emperor as well: it is implied he gave the Nebula Shard to Trazyn because he knew the Necron would end up giving it to Taylor, so she could use it to defeat Ka'Bandha. He also takes advantage of Tzeentch creating a Shadowpoint to increase its power and prevent Chaos from learning about the Raid of Commorragh until it is too late for them to prevent it. | |

The Friend Nobody Likes | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_a861560f | comment |
The Friend Nobody Likes: The Biel-Tan are generally treated with disgust and contempt by the other Eldar Craftworlds for their very aggressive nature and xenocidal campaign of restoring their empire that would only create further harm to their species (among other things, an obsession with retaking systems the Eldar abandoned millennia ago that they don't have the resources to hold - or do anything with, for that matter - even if they succeed in doing so). Eldrad Ulthran even express his regret of the deaths of Vyrion Kaeran and his brethren because it was not at his hands. Trazyn as in canon isn't very well liked by his fellow Necron Lords for stealing their stuff. He apparently considers Taylor a friend despite her viewing him with justified skepticism. Leet has not changed much from his days as Brockton Bay's greatest demonstration of what a villain failure was. As Wei Cao points out, when Dragon and Vista, two of the nicest people in the universe, are all too willing to insult you in private, you have a problem. Even Clockblocker, who is the closest thing to a friend Leet has in the future, can barely stand him. | |

Mad God: All the Ruinous Powers are completely insane by the standards of any living being. For example, Slaanesh, rather than influence the Drukhari leaders in order to form an alliance against the Imperial forces assaulting Commorragh, stop soul-sucking the Dark Eldar during the battle, or any other logical strategy, chooses to send its legions to assault the Dark City, and not only do its inhabitants fight back and keep them from getting to Weaver, but Slaanesh sends so many of its forces that Khorne seizes the chance to attack before the battle is even over. | |

The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_ac0f4761 | comment |
Future Imperfect: Taylor brings some of her classic songs back to the 35th Millennium. The Fay 20th then start treating "Beat It" like a hymn. M35 era alcoholic beverages are not the same as they were in the past, because the original methods of making alcohol did not survive through time. Instead, humanity have produced their own unique drinks which Dragon and Taylor regard in a very poor light. There are hints that this may change, however, as one of the planets of Taylor's sector is looking to grow grapes. | |

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_acf33d00 | comment |
Nice Job Fixing It, Villain!: The ritual initiated by the Chaos Space Marines at the beginning of the story only succeeds in bringing Taylor to the 35th millenium - where she promptly becomes a hero of the Imperium, saving billions of lives. When Slaanesh realizes its power is in danger of being permanently crippled by the razing of Commorragh by Taylor, it attempts to intervene... by sending its own armies to seize Commorragh first. The result is the defenders splitting their forces to fight both the humans and daemons, further reducing the resistance they can put up to Taylor's attack. And this only gets worse when Khorne decides to attack Slaanesh while it's vulnerable. During the Horus Heresy, Chaos destroyed all components for the Golden Throne along with the means of producing more. However, prior to the Heresy a Dark Eldar raid had captured three containers of these items and taken them into the Webway, where they were protected from the daemon purge. | |

Oh, Crap! | |

Oh, Crap!: Discovering a Tyranid entombed within Catachan's planetary crust is enough for Weaver to seriously consider an Exterminatus, and the Inquisition furiously agrees to seek confirmation of her concerns instead of just tossing it like every other request to bomb Catachan that reaches their desk. On board of Danger-Prototype-Central, there are two sentences every Tech-Priest dreads: "I think I have solved all the problems this time." and "They are going to recognise my genius with this invention!", since they mark another of Leet's "inventions" being finished (and highly likely to explode at the worst possible moment). The First Exploration Fleet from Nyx is quite disturbed when they see how much the Space Pirates from Pavia have fortified the system. Slaanesh's reaction when it realizes the razing of Commorragh will permanently cripple its power. The Drukhari forces guarding Khaine's Gate when they see it cracking from the other side. | |

Stupid Evil | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_affd30b0 | comment |
Stupid Evil: The Dark Eldar are incredibly evil but as the forces razing Commorragh find they're also kind of incompetent. While a lot of their weapons and architecture look horrifying and imposing, most of it proves completely useless in face of an actual military. And that's before you consider the idiocy of Eldar soldiers turning on and killing each other even as they're under attack by humans. The Chaos Gods are insane by their very nature. As a result they're liable to act in ways that seem idiotic and keep doing so even when it's obviously not working, often to their own detriment, as seen when Slaanesh over-commits to invading Commorragh and is caught off-guard by Khorne. | |

Loophole Abuse: A Cardinal of the Ecclesiarchy demands having a copy of the files found in the STC, arguing that nowhere in the Treaty of Olympus is indicated that only the Mechanicus can get them, only that the originals have to be sent to Mars. In the same chapter, Harrowmaster Isley's surviving Alpha Legionnaires are technically wiped out by an Imperial Tribunal. In reality? An Alpha Legion warband walked into the courtroom. The founding members of the 20th Legion's only known Loyalist Successor Chapter, the Heracles Wardens, walked out. The assignment of Taylor and company to oversee their reintegration into Imperial administration, and to make sure they STAY loyal, potentially foreshadows the Heracles Wardens engaging in their own Alpha-characteristic Loophole abuses in regards to recruitment and equipment. | |

The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_b4a6ae4c | comment |
Everyone Has Standards: As arrogant as they all are, most Eldar dislike the Biel-Tan for their extreme concentration of efforts in the Path of War, their obsession with restoring the Aeldari Empire and the brutality with which they carry out their military actions. So much so, that the death of several of their leaders at the Imperium's hands is regretted by no less than Eldrad - if only because they wanted to be the ones to do the deed. Taylor (and pretty much everyone else) is appalled with about ninety percent of everything Leet makes. Leet himself is disgusted by Cauldron's monumental mismanagement of the upcoming crisis that was Scion. All the Dawnbreaker Guard agrees with the opinion that the Izmir Imperial Palace is an artistic abomination. The Adeptus Mechanicus can't stand Leet, and assign priests to his station as a punishment posting. The latter later rise up and take over the station, forcing Leet to follow their lessons or else. | |

Too Dumb to Live | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_b58b4e3c | comment |
Too Dumb to Live: No, Nostradamus Vandire. When a girl that has been proclaimed a Saint, that is obviously beloved by the people and has a retinue formed by some of the best, most deadly warriors and soldiers humanity has ever had, arrives to the planet you want to rule, the answer is not to try to have her killed. The same can go for the other nobles in Nyx who thought they would be able to have Taylor killed. A bunch of nobles were horrified that Taylor had reduced the work week to 80 hours and given a free day per week, and decided to threaten her with retiring financial support if she did not follow their 'suggestions'. Within a few days, most of them were sent to the Nyx Penal Legions, and Taylor reduced the work week to 72 hours. Leet is very lucky that Taylor is still willing to keep him alive in case he comes up with something useful - because otherwise he would already be dead meat. You have to be a Grade-A Dumbass to not only tell the most powerful woman in the Sector to take a hike, but also to tell others to follow your example. Good job, Gulliver Nixon. Major-General Gregory Lichtenlade. The man attempted to rape a female soldier. Said female soldier had mastered two martial arts and was skilled with knife and katana. He also acted like a stereotypical sexual predator when he should know how Lady Weaver deals with rapists. The fact that he survived long enough to be put through trial is not a sign of him being lucky. The leaders of Biel-Tan, save for Farseer Filgonilth Sirethmoren. When they learn that Weaver's army is razing Commorragh, they decide to attack the one who has already humilliated their armies twice. Said Farseer decides to leave the planet with his followers before what amounts to be planetary suicide reaches them. Their troops are not exactly that bright, either. They are in the middle of Commorragh, which has become a complete mess in the Mêlée à Trois that the Imperial invasion has sparked and they are being warned that using sorcery is tantamount to opening a door for Slaanesh's daemons to enter. What do they do? Start to use sorcery. The Dark Eldar. Save for very few exceptions, they tend to prioritize their internal problems over the Imperial-Necron alliance that is currently razing everything that stands a meter above the ground. | |

Blood Knight: The Orks, naturally. During the Battle of the Death Star, it actually plays in the Imperium's favor when a lot of their ships decide to go fight the Chaos Battleship Certamen Ferale, which weakens both enemies and allows the Imperial Fleet to win by being the last man standing. Many of the Blood Angels count, but Champion Kratos of the Flesh Tearers is even more of this. The Queen of Blades is lured to join in the battle of Commorragh after Sliscus sends her a letter gushing about how much fun she'd have fighting against Taylor. | |

Chest of Medals: Due to her efforts in the Battle of the Death Star, Taylor ends up being awarded more than forty decorations (and that's the lower estimate, since Clockblocker stated he would be still talking the following day if he listed everything, and this is on top of the numerous medals she won in the earlier arcs). This doesn't take into account that she could also be awarded one or both of the Imperial Guard's highest decorations, the Star of Terra and the Order of Ollanius Pius (getting the former in 5.4., but not the latter, because it is almost always awarded posthumously). Fortunately for her, from the moment she is awarded the Ultima Honorifica, she can get away with wearing only that. | |

Per a suggestion from her subordinate she decides to refer to the various Eldar factions by their individual names as none are worthy of being called Aeldari. Trazyn later sends her a message that not all of the Aeldari are gone when he encounters Lelith. Once Fulgrim is revealed to be nothing more than a daemonic parasite using the real thing's body, the Marines and Rogal Dorn show it nothing but contempt. | |

Taylor's reaction when one of the pirate captains that live in Pavia turns out to look quite a lot like a panda bear. Again, Taylor's reaction when getting Trazyn to give her the third Key to the Webway gate and the Emperor's Children's progenoid glands is as easy as letting him take Sliscus' corpse for his collection. | |

The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_bb48f8ba | comment |
Timed Mission: The Necrons deploy a Dolmen Seal to destabilize Commorragh's stolen suns and close all the Warp Gates save for the ones they control, giving all Necron and Imperial forces a hard time limit to finish all objectives and leave before either the Eldar come in en masse or the entire realm collapses into oblivion. | |

Prophecy Twist: Maea is told by another Eldar farseer that if she goes on the quest to recover Elsar'bryn, she will one day hold it. She doesn't get told that her holding it involves it being shoved into her hands to prove that the gene-coded lock won't accept her after being taken prisoner. | |

Shout-Out | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The Ork Battle Moon gets called a Death Star by Taylor. The name sticks. Taylor then introduces Star Wars music. Dragon's various Dragon suit designs are named after various dragons from fictional works such as Smaug from The Lord of the Rings and Saphira from the Inheritance Cycle. In keeping with his usual style, Leet first appears dressed as Mario and kills an Ork warboss with a Holy Hand Grenade. He later builds a power armor for Taylor based on Samus Aran's Zero Suit. Taylor's Champion (former Champion of the 1st Company of the Flesh Tearers) is named Kratos. Trazyn the Infinite Collector, a Necron, disguises himself as an archaeologist with the surname "Koschai", very similar to the name of Koshchei the Immortal. At Taylor's petition, the battleship that is to become the center of the fleet she will use as transport for her armies is renamed HMHMS Enterprise. However, Taylor insists that she did not choose the ship's name from Star Trek, but instead named it after the World War II aircraft carrier, aka "The Big E", which in turn inspired the starship's name (it is somewhat implied she insists on this in part to screw with Leet's mind). The operation to rid Pavia System of its Space Pirates is called Operation Caribbean. Many of the officers assigned to Operation Caribbean by the Munitorum have names inspired by the generals of the Third Reich. When Asdrubael Vect is about to be killed by the Space Marines, he claims "If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine". Taylor is warned to be careful when meeting the Salamanders, because they tend to give extremely painful hugs. A Dark Eldar(Urien Rakarth, in fact) tries to claim he is a God in front of a Space Marine kill team. Pierre volatilizes its head with a punch and says "Puny God". When Clockblocker rebukes an Imperial general for a screw up but gives the man a second chance, he states “See that you do. Lady Weaver is not as forgiving as me.” One of Leet's weapons is kept under the code name "Case Cthulhu", and its password is "Han Solo shot first". An Imperial officer from a Death World renowned for the many deadly creatures that inhabit it is called Paul Dundee. | |

Unspoken Plan Guarantee | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_c82e751f | comment |
Unspoken Plan Guarantee: The Emperor, via Anubis Excelsor, gave Taylor a list of ten primary and thirty secondary objectives to be achieved in the assault against Commorragh, though the reader is not privy to them until they begin coming up: Objective A is the destruction of the maximum amount of Eldar space infrastructure - achieved via the destruction of Port Carmine, Port Shard, and the Port of Lost Souls. Objective B is the death of Urien Rakarth. It is unclear if him joining the Legions of Excess is a failure. Objective C is the death of Asdrubael Vect. His first body, as well as many of his clones, has been killed, but so far he remains at large. Objective D is the death of Drazhar - personally carried out by Taylor herself. Objective E is the reclamation of Imperial archaeotech - repair supplies for the Astronomican. Recovered thanks to Trazyn the Infinite Collector, no less. Objective F is to locate the Primarch that is imprisoned in Commorragh, presumed to be Jaghatai Khan of the White Scars. Instead, Imperial Fist Primarch Rogal Dorn is found. Objective G is to lure as many Eldar forces to Commorragh as possible. Objective H is to use Commorragh's Core Gate to modify the Webway in order to put an end to the Siege to the Terran Webway Gate. Objective I is to send an as yet unspecified life form to the a Webway gate on the Word Bearer world of Sicarus in the hopes of significantly damaging the Word Bearers. Objective J is to set off the Mark of Commorragh on their way out, presumably to kill all the Eldar lured in during objective G. | |

The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_c86a6f38 | comment |
Cannon Fodder: The actual military forces of the Drukhari are very slow to mobilize during the invasion of Comorragh due to internal strife and a disorganized response. To buy as much time as possible, they send waves of poorly-equipped conscripts to get butchered by the humans. As powerful and proud as the Asuryani forces coming to Commorragh's aid are, and however much they claim they are valiant warriors come to save the Aeldari Empire in its hour of need, they are quickly reduced to this when the Necrons unleash a C'tan straight on top of them. During the attack on Commorragh Taylor uses the various native species of mega-insects as this, both against troops and to take the brunt of the enemy superweapons. | |

My Species Doth Protest Too Much | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_c8bea4ec | comment |
My Species Doth Protest Too Much: Neferten opposes the Necron stance of exterminating all life and is in fact seeking a way to break free of the Silent King's control. This is not new, as she was a dissenting voice at all three of her race's major mistakes: going to war with the Old Ones, allying with the C'Tan, and entering the long dormancy without accounting for entropy. Farseer Filgonilth is highly critical of Biel-Tan's extreme militarism and is strongly opposed to the revival of the Aeldari Empire, as he recognized its depravity and cruelty led to the Aeldari's downfall and that the Drukhari keep on carrying out the old empire's dark excesses. He has the final straw with Biel-Tan over the High Council's decision to assist the Drukhari in defending Commorragh against Weaver. Lelith Hesperix has nothing but disdain for what the Drukhari have become despite technically being considered one of them. She has never spoken against their current behavior because she no longer cares enough after witnessing the Fall and seeing that the Drukhari learned nothing from it. | |

We ARE Struggling Together: The usual state of the Imperium, which is pretty much a large number of independent organizations that are technically under the banner of the Double-Headed Aquila and will likely work against each other when it suits their interests. As of 5.1, Weaver is clearly fed up with this attitude and begins to fight against it. The Biel-Tan cause this whenever they "work together" with another craftworld's forces. The Dark Eldar, being beings with a large penchant for betraying each other, have a hard time at working together for anything. | |

The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_cc247b2d | comment |
Unsatisfiable Customer: Around sixty years before the story, Belisarius Cawl walked into Quayran, a shipyard in the Ultima Segmentum, with a Parliament of Mars writ basically granting him a blank check for whatever he damn pleased, and ordered a colossal battleship that gave nothing but record performances in all of its trials, produced the strongest Gellar Fields ever recorded, was loaded with an absurd amount of weaponry even for a battleship of its class, and was completed in a record forty years. Despite this, Cawl declared himself unsatisfied and sold it back to the shipyard. | |

Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu? | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_cc4d190a | comment |
Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Taylor not only defeats Ka'Bandha, the mightiest of Khorne's servants, but humiliates the son of a bitch, steals a Baal ruby it took from Sanguinius, and heals (at least temporarily) most of the Blood Angels from their Black Rage. That Living Saint title is well deserved. In Commorragh she arguably tops it by fighting Fulgrim (or at least the daemon using the body of what had once been Fulgrim), and wounding it with a C'Tan blade that it can't heal from, severing its link to the Emperor's Children, and sending it back to the Warp to face Ka'Bandha, raging that Weaver is HIS kill. Lelith Hesperax once faced a C'Tan, albeit a minor one, in battle during the War In Heaven and lived to tell the tale. She easily defeats a shard the Necrons were using in the Seige of Commorragh. | |

Outside-Context Problem | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_cc7fae30 | comment |
Outside-Context Problem: Taylor becomes this in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. The ability of controlling all arthropodes (insects, arachnids and centipedes) without having to use the Warp makes her incredibly powerful and a huge boon to the Imperium. It is heavily implied that her presence is seriously messing up with the Eldar Farseers' ability to see the future. Contessa later reveals that Taylor's presence is disrupting/preventing every prognosticators' ability to predict the future. Eldrad mentions that the region of space centered in Nyx has become a Shadowpoint, which prevents all Farseers from looking into the future of the region. | |

Tank Goodness | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_cd809603 | comment |
Tank Goodness: The reconstructed Great Crusade-era Karon Battle-Tank Pattern Dragon (later renamed as the Jaghatai Khan). Equipped with a dual cannon, the Karon is capable of destroying a superior Eldar tank and can ignore their ghost-system (assuming that wasn't Dragon following Taylor's targeting coordinates, as her bugs were definitely immune and she was giving the location over the vox). While smaller than a Leman Russ, it is much faster and have far more autonomy, due in part to their greater internal fuel capacity, and its size makes it a far smaller target for long-range gun duels and artillery fire, and its lighter weight allows it to cross bridges and obstacles where heavier machines will be unable to pass. However, it lacks better protection compared to a Leman Russ and is not suited in an urban environment. Dragon upgrades the second-rate Cataphract Super Heavy Tank, replacing more or less everything that isn't the heavily armored hull, leaving a comparatively fast and heavy-hitting machine. It still doesn't compare to a Baneblade or other STC-based Super Heavy, but is more than a match for any basic tank. The Obsidian Chariot, Vulkan's personal Fellglaive is a still operational pre-Heresy tank and quickly proves it's still formidable in the attack on Commorragh. | |

Serial Escalation | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_ce104b8e | comment |
Serial Escalation: Given that the main character is nicknamed "Queen of Escalation", it fits. The fic starts fairly low key, with a local war against Orks, dealing with two rogue Inquisitors and having to fight a small Eldar team. Then the ship she's in is forced to land on an Ork Battle Moon, forcing her and everyone with her to fight for days, climaxing in a duel with a Bloodthirster daemon. Then there are several years of calm, as Taylor becomes the governor of the Nyx sector, until the Shadowpoint arc comes around and she leads a fleet to destroy the pirate fleets over Pavia. This is immediately followed by the Extermination arc, with Taylor's fleet razing Commorragh and permanently destroying Slaanesh's main source of power! | |

The presence of several Knights who have spent generations dreaming of this day only reinforces this. | |

Anti-Villain: The pirate commander Ulion Lakadieth is this, or at least A Lighter Shade of Black, almost always taking prisoners and ransoming them instead of slaughtering everyone in his path, and devoting his spoils to rebuilding his Craftworld rather than for his own personal gain. This pays off when Taylor decides to ransom his fleet rather than destroy it. | |

In Spite of a Nail: Even after Taylor made her appearance, Ciaphas Cain (HERO OF THE IMPERIUM!!!) is still born in the 40th Millenium and becomes a Commissar with the same penchant for being an Accidental Hero, though his comments on this nature somehow end up in his official memoirs rather than in the classified Cain Archive that make up the books. Someone else who also makes an appearance is Alexander Macharius, only that, instead of Lord Solar, his rank is Star Marshal - the same rank Taylor will eventually attain. The Forgehammer is still captured and taken to Commorragh with a complement of Space Marines on board. But rather than a rescue by their chapter, Taylor's fleet arrives first. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_d397657d | comment |
Hoist by His Own Petard: The Dark Eldar kept millions of Helspiders (huge spiders that are lethal even by Warhammer 40000 standards) under Commorragh, planning to use them against their enemies. Guess what happens when Taylor "Weaver" Hebert arrives? Thanks to the timeless nature of the Warp, Slaanesh could draw on souls and suffering not produced in the "present" to strengthen itself. But since most of that comes from the Drukhari and the suffering they cause in the Dark City, Taylor's assault puts its position among the Four, and potentially its existence on the line if they succeed in razing Commorragh... Even worse, its attempt to intervene not only leaves it open to Khorne, but weakens the Drukhari defense even more. | |

Mook Depletion | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_d41485b9 | comment |
Mook Depletion: One of the issues plaguing the Dynasts during the razing of Commorragh is that they keep executing any commanders whose forces are defeated. This prevents the development of a coherent response to the Imperial forces as each new commander tries a different strategy before meeting their demise. It eventually reaches the point that a new leader can't be assigned before the unit is overrun. Messengers bringing bad news to the Dynasts get murdered as a result, but one Dynast eventually lets them live simply because he's running low on capable messengers. | |

Refuge in Audacity: Trazyn the Infinite requests an audience with Taylor by disguising himself as an archeologist - after teleporting into the Lower Hive, stealing a number of Menelaus' artwork, disguising himself, stunning a Magos to steal his identification, tricking the machine-spirits into slotting an audience for him and putting a monitoring system in a video loop. To use an Eldar artifact in Commorragh to reshape the Webway and redirect the forces of Chaos attacking the Golden Throne, Taylor, after discovering that she fits the criteria, declares herself Empress of the Aeldari. | |

Unwanted Gift Plot | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_d4cd68be | comment |
Unwanted Gift Plot: Taylor soon learns that the Nebula's Shard, while really useful in fights against Eldar and daemons, is also making her the target of the Eldar because it is one of the Blades of Vaul (the Eldar god of smiths and craftsmen). In Decision 5.4, Trazyn gives her an equally dangerous gift - a canister containing a first generation progenoid gland...from the Emperor's Children. Later, it's revealed that this is only one of more than seventeen and a half thousand glands, enough to create an entire legion, a price that the Third Legion would burn entire sectors to gain. Quayran's Folly. Belisarius Cawl spent colossal amounts to create an unspeakably powerful, armored, armed and fast warship. Then he looked at the record-breaking performance and decided it wasn't up to scratch. Since then, the shipyard that created it has tried desperately to find a buyer for the immense thing; the only reason Taylor has anywhere near the resources needed to buy the gigantic warship is having found the STC. | |

Hypocrite | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_d52d28b6 | comment |
Hypocrite: The Black Templars, according to Harrowmaster Jeremiah Isley. For all that Marshal Markward accuses the renegade Alpha Legionnaires of "terrible devastation unleashed on innocent menials", the Black Templars themselves are known to purge entire cities at the first sign of mutation or defiance. In fact, he gets many of the charges dismissed because he could prove that the Black Templars had no right to judge him for crimes they had committed themselves on a larger scale and on a more regular basis. The Space Wolves are even worse, according the Blood Angels. The Black Templars cheerfully own up to the fact they're bloodthirsty fanatics for the God-Emperor, the Space Wolves are nothing but crude, half-feral savages convinced of their superiority. Harrowmaster Jeremiah Isley lampshades this when Ka'Bandha, despite Khorne's hatred of psychic sorcery, uses what is is obviously a sorcerous attack (and if the storm of black and red lightning wasn't sorcery, he'd eat his Powered Armor) to make the Brothers of the Red drop to the ground like puppets whose strings have been cut. During the Battle of Pavia, Sliscus complains about the World Engine destroying his superweapon is incredibly unfair. The narration helpfully points out that Sliscus was about to do the same thing to the Imperial Fleet, and that hypocrisy is expected of people of his self-proclaimed rank. | |

When it becomes obvious that the Raid on Commorragh is going to be a success, millions of Drukhari run away and desert rather than face death. When the mysterious stranger that has managed to infiltrate his throne room presents himself as Trazyn the Infinite Collector, Ariex Yllithian knows he can only do one thing: hightail it out of there. When the Flamewrought appears in Commorragh, Aurelia knows that the humans have won and directs her forces to flee for the Gate to Craftworld Ulthwe.

The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_dc9b1fe9 | comment |
Cue the Sun: Justified when a whole regiment of Space Marines comes to relieve the human soldiers stranded on the Death Star — their landing actually disturbs the cloud cover, letting light pass through. Every time the Enterprise fires its cannon. So much firepower is comparable in intensity and brightness to sunrise. When Taylor's fleet makes its way to Commorragh to raze it, it is noted to be the first (and last) time the sun rises in the Dark Eldar city. During the ensuing invasion, Taylor acquires a species of worms which absorb light and can release it with a glow like the sun. This blinds the defending Drukhari and means that everywhere Taylor goes, so does the dawn. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure: Taylor is this to the hilt. When she meets with Calico, the leader of the Rashan, she offers him a planet where he and his people can leave in peace, the only thing being that they will have to worship the Emperor and work for the Mechanicus. | |

Throwing Off the Disability | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_e016e53f | comment |
Throwing Off the Disability: Upon arriving in the Imperium, most of Dragon's hardcoded restraints disappear, most notably the "must always obey lawfully appointed authority" one. Given that Dragon's nightmare scenario of a tyrant rising to power through legal means happens on a semi-regular basis in the Imperium, this is a very good thing. | |

Assassin Outclassin' | |
The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_e2f7ab99 | comment |
Assassin Outclassin': The Vandires send three Callidus Assassin apprentices after Taylor in revenge for her role in Nostradamus' death. None of them even come close. The first travels to Nyx on a ship owned by an Astrogator clan that is dabbling in piracy targeted at the Astrogator clan with the primary contract for Nyx shipping - which runs into an Astartes anti-piracy campaign. The assassin ends up an incidental casualty without even reaching the Nyx system. The second makes it to Nyx, but is identified as a Callidus Assassin when she crosses paths with a Heracles Warden and is killed before she can make it out of the spaceport. The third actually got within two hundred meters of Taylor. Unfortunately, two hundred meters below Taylor's office was a nest of some of her insects. The assassin quickly found herself trussed up in spider silk and suspended by her ankles above a spider pit until Taylor was ready to question her. She ends up accepting an offer to join the Imperial Guard. Before all that, there were all the assassins that various nobles hired to kill Taylor after she became Basileia of Nyx. It was a massacre. A massacre of assassins. | |

Divide and Conquer: During Operation Caribbean, in order to capitalize on the pirates' lack of unity, Wolfgang suggests getting them to fight each other to weaken their defenses. Taylor is reluctant, but agrees to the proposal. Done accidentally against the Drukhari, as the Dynast of Commorragh blames Asdrubael Vect for the invasion of the Webway, and commits forces to destroying his power base. Vect is more than willing to respond in kind, ensuring the forces sent against him can't fight the invaders. | |

Since the Astartes haven't been organized into legions for millennia, that reveals him as one of the Fallen. One of the pirate lords in Pavia made a deal to attack the nearby system of Pandaimon. And he will do it... in two cycles, upon which time the intended targets of this attack will be long gone. | |

Big Creepy-Crawlies: On every planet Taylor goes to, she finds at least one species of very nasty insect she can use against her enemies, and takes some with her when she goes. She can even control the robotic Canoptek Scarabs, which greatly helps her in her first battle against Iash'uddra by taking control of his Canoptek swarm and turning it against him. When her forces end up trapped on the Death Star, the Mechanicus brings out the samples they had kept stored because they were too dangerous; soon after, Taylor is riding some of her new bugs. | |

Mundane Utility: Downplayed with Taylor's parahuman ability of insect-control. Yes, it allows her to corner a sweet part of the economic markets (raising spiders for their silks, crustaceans for their flesh) but she's only one person so her goods are in limited supply and as such luxury items for the wealthy. She does use them for her day-to-day life, though. | |

Never Found the Body: Behemoth and Leviathan were confirmed casualties of the Gold Morning. The Simurgh was not. It's also mentioned that right before Taylor was transported, none of her fellow Undersiders were answering their radios but Regent was the only one she'd seen fall. While the others are presumed dead it's possibly that some of them were among those who led exoduses into other dimensions and/or that one of them is the Destiny Unwritten. The same is true of several of Dennis and Missy's teammates. | |

Kneel Before Frodo: After Taylor kicked the shit out of Ka'Bandha - sworn enemy to their Primarch - and became their living shield against the Black Rage, all of the Blood Angels Chapters present expressed their gratitude by kneeling to her. During the Raid on Commorragh, the Regent of Nocturne (the Chapter Master of the Salamanders) and Archmagos Belisarius Cawl bow as well, with the Regent even bending the knee. When Taylor tries to tell him he does not have to, the Regent claims that he does. | |

The Weaver Option (Fanfic) / int_f52ae5d8 | comment |
Enemy Civil War: Breaks out between Asdrubael Vect and Dynast Maestros Xelian after both men accused each other of allowing the Imperium-Necron fleet to attack Commorragh. As events progress, the infighting spreads throughout the Dark City becomes less a civil war than a free-for-all as individual factions turn on each other mid-battle. Later estimates would conclude that this resulted in ten billion casualties, or, to put it another way, five percent of the total Drukhari population. | |
