Theorizing about what might have happened to Marazhai's mother, Farkaza Aezyrraesh . . .

Marazhai says she was a leader, and the family name Aezyrraesh seems very connected to the Kabal of the Reaving Tempest. She was also powerful enough to be protected while she carried two pregnancies to term. Therefore, I assume she was the Archon of the Reaving Tempest prior to Yremeryss (although iirc this isn't explicitly stated).

I also assume that, as she is no longer Archon, she is dead. My theory is that one of three things happened: (1) Yremeryss had her assassinated; (2) another kabal had her assassinated; or (3) Farkaza died during the dysjunction that occurred in the Path of the Dark Eldar books (which also could have led to an opportunity for assassination).

Because I like seeing connections between stories, I guess I like the idea that Farkaza died during that dysjunction, which occurred in 842.M41 (Rogue Trader takes place roughly around 999.M41 or the beginning of M42). So, with around 157 years taking place between Path of the Dark Eldar and the game, it would make sense if Marazhai and Yremeryss were alive during the dysjunction, and it impacted their lives.

A dysjunction, from my understanding of it from reading PotDE and playing Rogue Trader, occurs when there's a warp breach into Commorragh and daemons flood into the city. In addition to the danger posed by daemons attacking the city, many Drukhari take such occasions as an opportunity to attack enemy kabals or grab power if there's a power vacuum (which is apparently what Yremeryss wanted to do by causing a dysjunction in Rogue Trader).

In PotDE, total chaos ensued from the dysjunction. Many Drukhari (and other species, of course) died fighting the daemons or each other. But in addition to this, Commorragh's overlord, Vect (the guy who Marazhai fears enough not to talk about, and who is also the ultimate leader of the Black Heart Kabal that Nazrakhei was an Archon of), decided to regain control of Commorragh by unleashing weapons of mass destruction on everything and everyone inside it. (As a side note, there is an *awesome* Harlequin character in PotDE, Motley, who hates Vect for this).

What all this means with regard to Marazhai's mother is that she easily could have died during the dysjunction, whether from daemons, other Drukhari, her own daughter Yremeryss (who as we know thinks dysjunctions are a great way to shake up the power structure), or Vect basically nuking the place without caring if he killed daemons, rebels, or his own loyalists.

Anyway, I wish there was more info on what Marazhai's mother was like; she must have been a very interesting character.

Marazhai romance playthrough 19/?

Meeting Yremeryss.

(Alternative dialogue if you asks Marazhai if he has any last words for his sister, which adds a bit of lore:)

This entire scene is so absurd to me. Don't get me wrong, I love it, I am so into it, but honestly this part in particular makes it feel like he's an innocent country girl who I've accidentally impregnated and now he's demanding I marry him to avoid the stigma of a baby out of wedlock. If his sister wasn't dead he'd make her threaten me with a shotgun into properly branding him to save her baby brother's honor.

Marazhai being Trueborn is worth it if nothing else for the fucked-up sibling drama he has with Yremeryss. She decided to take him being born extremely personally, but also, he's her only Dracon so she's not super incentivized to kill him. So they've just been stuck in a cycle of sabotaging each other for who knows how long, and at least until you come along it seems like she'd been winning.

He fucked up a raid? She has her haemonculus torture Low Gothic into his brain to teach the other Kabalites a lesson. He tries to have her usurped as Archon in front of their liege's Kabal? She lets the Wyches take his skin and make him fight in the arena to earn it back. And even though last one was bad enough he wants her soul trapped over it, he's more mad about the status loss than the "making him earn his skin back" part.

And then later you can ask him about why haven't they killed each other sooner and beyond just being too scared cautious to do it himself, he's also like, "its a bonding thing, and trying to torment other people would be boring so :/" which is probably true but also he doesn't seem to have many stories of getting one up on her so...?

#he's such a loser actually #but I did lose it at her boss fight when he's like “if you were actually good at anything mom wouldn't have needed to have me so :/” #We don't ever get to meet the esteemed Farkaza but I think she'd be equally disappointed in them both idk #but i wish we had more time with Yremeryss #duolingo torture machine and flayed for sibling usurpation crimes are so gross and so funny I love her #she's my beloved SiL and I need her freed from the soul trap immediately #rogue trader #rogue trader spoilers #marazhai aezyrraesh

A rough guide on how to turn sub!Marazhai into an Archon

Just finished my second playthrough and managed to make sub!Marazhai an Archon. I used Toy Box only to check Tempest points and how the developers changed all the incorrect etudes with dom/sub roles.

I don't know what exactly influenced it, as Tempest points were added and lost without any flags or etudes, although I only started watching closely in the branding scene and before the meeting with Kharael.

In this playthrough, I had the quest to kill Yremeryss in the journal properly displayed, which wasn't the case on the first run (I didn't have Argenta, Heinrix and Ulfar in the party on my first run before that notorious scene in the Pit. :D And as a result, I didn't get any Tempest points at all for killing her ). It was hilarious to see only Argenta (!) trying to kill Marazhai on the second run;

In Commorragh, 'killed' Tervantias and destroyed his star-powered construct;

Took an Agoniser (though it didn't show up in the bedroom and the dialogues, which is clearly a bug);

Marazhai finished off Yremeryss with a final strike (I doubt it's critical, but just in case) and he took her soul.

There were 2 Tempest points on the way from Commorragh to Janus.

After the first warp jump, let him hunt wherever he wanted (not so dom!rt style, eh?);

Going on the main quest, his personal quest and gaining ascension points and dom!points;

He let me brand him!

At this point Tempest's points went to zero, which was very confusing.

In Chapter 5, Kharael commented that Marazhai looked great for being in realspace for so long, and then noticed the branding. By the end of the dialogue, Tempest's points went up to 3.

In the encounter with the Black Heart, through passing-skill, we bend Kharael to our side.

Does everyone have this bug in this scene? I reloaded my old save with another dom!RT and the scene plays similarly: Marazhai descends from the throne instead of bowing, even though the dialogue is correct:

And finally… 'here we are':

I hope you can make him an Archon too and it's not a game bug.

The villains kind of sucked.

Voigtvir disappears for 80% of the game when they imply he could strike back any time while actively hunting you down or debate your right to the title since he's a petty bitch. He just comes back to be sacrificed and he isn't that much of a threat during his battle because he's accompanied by five chaos marines including Uralon. He lived and died being mildly annoying and kind of a forgettable weakling.

Uralon is just there for the chaos marine jumpscare. I could fit his entire dialogue in a sticky note and most of it would be chaotic evil villain 101 nonsense. Aurora could have been more effective as the main chaos leader the way they used their wrap powers to create ghosts but they were killed so early they're almost completely forgotten by the end.

Idk if I didn't trigger the conversation with the Edge of dawn because he said he talked to me and I absolutely do not remember. Either way his fight was a chore and he accomplished even less than Uralon.

I enjoyed Marazhai as the arc villain of the end of chapter 2 but by then you're three steps away from Commorragh and four from recruiting him. They could have developed him as your rival earlier, for example since the Rykad's star was stolen and the Drukhari entered the scene. To me his personal beef with Yremeryss detracts her own role as someone who hurt you too because his defeat in the trail was framed as the last, worst humiliation that drives him to you. She's his villain and just your chapter boss.

Tervantias was great as this figure that you're forced to cooperate despite being vile with you and your companions but bringing him back in chapter 4 felt like they didn't know what to do with him, only that he should be there because he's too powerful to die the first time you fought him.

Actually from chapter 4 and onwards there's a huge villain decay. Calligos and Incendia go from being your equals whom you have to tread around carefully and play politics with them or else you could provoke an all out war to having their own brand of insanity and when death is about to hit them it's almost funny. Incendia, full on christian zealot who had people crucified on the street, dies in a bar fight. I didn’t have to kill Calligos because I had high persuasion but a daemon beat his ass with one swing of its sword and Calligos kept talking to me while he was on the ground bleeding out.

The necrons were truly decor for the last stretch and a hint towards the C'tan endgame. Nothing came out of them outside of three annoying almost infinite mook fights.

Calcazar explaining you how every piece of the puzzle fits was a detraction to every mystery in the game. I don't go to the endgame looking for answers, I should have figured those out as the game progresses by being curious of what was happening in each chapter and place. He could mention some parts that would be impossible to decipher but then again he's the fucking grand inquisitor and if this setting is famous for something is for anyone more powerful than you saying fuck you i don't have to tell you anything, I'm holding all the cards so do as i say or you're going to the people grinder. You should have forced him to tell you and even then it should probably be behind a high coercion roll.

And then so many bugs make me think I actually missed some things or didn't trigger some conversations that would have clued you more on what was going on behind the scene.

It seems that almost no one draws Marazhai's older sister.

First chat with Marazhai. Part 2 (I split it in four smaller videos for tumblr uploading reasons).

Here there is a bit more about his plan to defeat Yremeryss and the kidnapping, plus his deal with my companion.

I think marazhai is hilarious because he may be a horror alien from the pits of hell in a high position but he's also a shitty younger brother who thinks he deserves better than the sister that gave him the cushy job he flaunts around.

And he can prove it to you! In the game he: executes a shitty plan that fails, gets so pissed at you for shit talking with him he snaps, wildly shoots at you and runs away from battle, executes a plan that fucks you over, executes a plan that fucks you and him over, becomes the city jester, needs an aeldari to plan an escape just like you do, puts a brave face instead of asking anyone what warp travel involves, most of his solutions to the colonies sidequests are the worst ones and he needs all the answers to the final drukhari test whispered to him by the human everyone is telling him to shut up (you)!

Like Yremeryss plan sucked but I don't see a way for the raving tempest to survive to the next century lmfao.

#just looking at them i know he's centuries or millenia younger than y/rliet #tbh i doubt he's over a thousand years old #rich little boy vibes
