In Character Info:
The planet of Harlick Mhor had the cancer of corruption within its very bones long before the operatives of the Twentieth Legion ever arrived to limit the life of the planet even further; it was (and remains) a complete pit of corruption, criminal activity, extortion, and perverse wickedness – when the Cicatrix Maledictum surged across the galaxy in a wave of warp-infused damnation, the descendants of those first operatives, members of a cult known as The Splintered Cell, knew that their time had come...
For several generations now the initiates of the cult, flame-bearers of their ancestors given missions in life, have infiltrated into nearly the highest echelons of the planets primary organs – from the Planetary Defence Force to the oligarchic government that is just one place below the Planetary Governor himself – and God-Emperor knows how deep they have slunk into the lower depths of the planets dozen or so hive cities.
The Great Rift is opened, those that first planted the seeds will assuredly return – nay, it had been ordained that they shall! - and with their coming shall be granted the rewards of rightfully your own.
Steps must be taken for their arrival, a gathering of the initiates must be called, and the prime steps must be taken to ensure that Harlick Mhor takes the direction it was always destined to do – Hydra Dominatus, for the Emperor!

Out of character info:
Welcome, one and all, to the grim darkness of the future where their is only war!
This roleplay, as you may have gathered, revolves around an Alpha Legion cult planted on Harlick Mhor at an honestly unknown date – it could have been as far back as the Great Crusade for all anyone knows!
Players will be taking the role of one of these initiates, members of the cult working toward the ultimate overthrow of the planets leaders in preparation for the arrival of the main Alpha Legion forces; some may be doing it out of a propaganda-induced sense of loyalty to the cause, some because they desire power and the potential to become immortal by unknown means, and likely there are those that joined because they never had any loyalty to the Imperium to begin with.
Characters can generally be from wherever you'd like, as old as you'd like, and from wherever in the class system of the Imperium you'd like, short of the highest ranks of the planets government.
They may know one another, and have likely attended other meetings together even if they don't realise it, with the only thing linking them (outside of their allegiance to the Legion) being a mark/tattoo/brand somewhere on their body of the three-headed hydra and a ritual curved dagger that each cult member carries when about cult business.
That's all I'll say for now, as things are going to be kept deliberately close to my chest.
