Carlos McConnell
"Dressed in his sombrero and kilt,
With his bagpipes and maracas,
Playing away for his supper;
Boiled haggis with nachos."
- – Enter the Haggis
Carlos McConnell, the Most Interesting Man in the Imperium, is the result of fa/tg/uys getting into a discussion about the felinids in what was originally an image dump thread.
Felinids are Abhumans that come from the world of Carlos McConnell, the denizens of /tg/ decided that this was the name of the planet’s discoverer and gave him a backstory.
It was glorious.
History[edit]
A power claymore in one hand, a laspistola in the other, Carlos McConnell was the bravest Rogue Trader the galaxy had ever known. Wearing a kilt and sombrero (because in 'Murica all Spaniards are Mexicans), his faith in the Emperador was so strong that he was able to accomplish his duties even with a ship crewed by nothing but Felinids. Only Emperor knows why the man chose to surround himself with Abhumans, but that's Rogue Traders for you.
Carlos McConnell! Born of an Angry Spanishian Commissar and her Angrier Scottishian General Lover!
Sent into this world in the midst of battle! Like Hercules in the crib, he throttled Rippers! He spent his childhood beating up Gretchin - as practice!
His mother was eaten by a Mawloc - so he ate it! With Potatties and Hotsauce! His father was killed by a Champion of Slaanesh - so we all know what happened next - "My name is Carlos McConnell. You killed my father. Prepare to die!"
He stole a ship to get his revenge - and the crew gladly accepted him as their new captain!
He killed a Hundred men and pleasured a Hundred women to earn his warrant of trade!
He conquered a planet from xenos and heretical filth, named it after himself, and found it filled with catgirls!
Carlos McConnell - Rogue Trader and Hero of the Imperium!
Personal Ship[edit]
A Cruiser, so obnoxiously decorated it was once hired to infiltrate a Slaaneshi fleet by the Inquisition. This lead to the infamous incident where he gained the hatred of a Keeper of Secrets by beating it in a seduction contest while remaining pure to the God Emperor. He seduced the Keeper of Secrets. (The Keeper of Secrets then killed itself due to realizing it could never be adequate.)
It has two figureheads; a Scottishian Catgirl and a Spanishian Catgirl making out.
His crew consists entirely of Felinids and includes Seneschal Schrödinger and Arch-Militant Clan-Clan. Additionally, the AdMech willingly made a servitor body for his ship's Machine Spirit for fear of the consequences of not giving the machine spirit a body, after they discerned how bad it wanted to fuck McConnell. It was, of course, a busty catgirl. And he, of course, fucked it.
It contains a component that lets him rearrange the interior like a maze. Not because it protects the ship from boarders, but because his ship is designed so that he can have any crew quarters in the ship lead directly to his bed room; i.e. you step out of your shower and into his private chambers with nothing but a towel and don't know how you got there.

- Amberley Vail probably read about McConnell somewhere and bestowed the title of Most Interesting Man in the Imperium upon him, leading to his running rivalry with Cain.
- Amberley Vail is in love with him. In all those unspoken of sex scenes with Cain she made him wear a kilt and a sombrero. (Carlos actually met her after a freak webway accident left him adrift in time. Cain might have swag but even he couldn't compete after Carlos saved her by winning a three way sword fight between him, Asdrubael Vect and Trazyn the Infinite. Luckily for Cain's reputation the Inquisition redacted all evidence of the event but he knows what REALLY happened.)
