Most witch hunters are the state-issued Templars of the Cult of Sigmar. However, there are a wide variety of others, from the Colleges' Magisters Vigilant to local mercenaries hired out to a nobleman's service. What they all have in common however is their dedication and zeal against all things tainted and unpure.[1a][4a] Since the practice of any witchery outside of the auspices of the Colleges of Magic is deemed an abomination within the Empire, death by burning is the proscribed punishment for this particular crime - and the witch hunters are far from squeamish about meting it out. In recent times, woodcutters and witch hunters are kept busy as more and more people reportedly turn to the dark arts. All ordinary citizens agree witch hunters are necessary and the work they do is crucial to the safety of the Old World, but there are very few who do not feel a flush of fear when they see a figure wearing the familiar wide-brimmed hat, buckled tunic, and long black cloak.[/CENTER] Greetings, one and all once more. After much deliberation, again, and with plenty of time on my hands, I have decided to go with another RP. This time set in the more fantastical cousin of the 40K universe, yet still based inside Games Workshops chronologically confused but nonetheless quite entertaining lore. If you do not know this 'version' of the franchise so well, or if you have any questions, please feel free to send me a PM or ask in this thread.

In my opinion this just makes for a much better and more entertaining RP overall. Therefore I have chosen an RP based the retinue of the Witch Hunter Helmut Van Graff - a group of highly motivated and possibly specialised warrior men and women from across the breadth of the Old World (and possibly new), in the employ of a fanatical tracker of the enemies of the Sigmarite faith and just 'good' in general. If you as a reader are familiar with such works as the Witcher novels (or indeed know of any historical witch hunts) then you may know a little of what to expect; essentially a group of misfits slammed together in their shared lust for gold, adventure and getting into other peoples messes with the eventual goal of exterminating a dark adversary/monster. While there shall be plenty of action, there will also be intrigue, politics, religion and all the 'grim darkness' that the 40K version is known for...just in a more fantasy-based setting. Interested? Then come aboard! [B][u]The Setting[/u][/B] Ubersreik is one of the most important trade centers in Reikland. It sits astride and important bridge on the road from from Bögenhafen to Dunkelburg. Trade flows along the road as well as downriver to Auerswald, Grünburg, Kemperbad, and Altdorf. In addition, because it is located near Grey Lady Pass, Ubersreik is the ideal location for merchants travelling over the Grey Mountains to move their wares from the river to overland transportation, and vice versa. From Ubersreik anything is possible! One could travel to the steaming jungles of Lustria, to the frozen northern wastes, over the mountains into Bretonnia or into the civilised lands of the Empire. Here is where it shall all [i]begin[/i]...but where it will all [i]end[/i] is another matter entirely.
