40K: Warlords

@ApothecaryMeros could you use the updated NS format and PM @Fallen Muse and I the NS for approval before posting the Character Tab? Thanks! I should have noted that in the OP, my bad.

40K: Warlords

Can I still have my faction be a order?

@GreivousKhan

you mean like a player made order? sure! Or do you need more numbers than I give above, bc that's also fine.

40K: Warlords

Let me think on it.

40K: Warlords

<Snipped quote by Flagg>

Well seeing as it's a giant Warp Storm and the Ordo Malleus are involved, they would have a 99% chance of being called to deal with it and mind wipe their surviving Brothers.

@Legion-114

Well, not all imperial conflicts against chaos involve them, but I understand the rationale for them being involved. I just wanted to know what you had in mind in terms of RPing them. Like, how many, etc.

40K: Warlords

Grey Knight? >.<

@Legion-114

I might have to be sold on that one. What did you have in mind specifically?

40K: Warlords

Pontius Secundus

Zone 1) Fortress Macharius

Ravenstein's headquarters. The Fortress Marcharius is a sprawling installation protected by trench works, walls, void shielding and mounted turrents and artillery. It is the command center of the Imperial defense, controlling the surface-to-orbit weaponry network across Pontius.

Zone 2) Hive Bohemond

Zone 3) Bohemond Outskirts

Zone 4) The Broken Desert

ASTROPATHIC COMMUNIQUE

- CLASSIFICATION LEVEL: CRIMSON -

YOUR EYES ONLY

Commander,

At 0400 hours sidereal, a major warpstorm enveloped the Seleucis Subsector. Communications with planetary governments there have been patchy, but the intelligence we do have paints a grim picture. The Hive World Dis has fallen under attack from traitor elements: domestic rebels as well as heretical Astartes and Sororitas that arrived on planet just as the warpstorm struck. By the time you receive this communication, the planet will is expected have fallen.

The Governor Subsector, Lord von Ravenstein, has assumed direct command of all forces within the subsector and conscripted all PDF forces directly into the Imperial Guard. Ravenstein is fortifying the industrial world of Pontius Secundus, which lies along the only use able warp-route to the rest of the subsector. But Ravenstein is outmatched by the numbers and resources of the heretics, and tacticae predicts defeat if he is not reinforced.

Commander, augurs suggest a brief break in the Warp storm in ten days time that will afford Imperial forces an opportunity to enter the Seleucis Subsector and rendezvous with the defenders. You and the forces under your command are ordered to reinforce Ravenstein on Pontius Secundus and ensure that the Seleucis Subsector does not fall.

In His Name,

Antiochus Nox, Inquisitor
Ordo Hereticus

This RP

Welcome to the Subsector Seleucis!

This RP will be a character- and story-focused faction RP based in the 40K universe, in the embattled Seleucis Subsector, which is all but cut off from the rest of the Imperium and under assault from the forces of Chaos. Players may create and write as many characters of as many types as they think they can handle- from Astartes Captains to IG grunts, from Chaos Sorcerers wielding the might of the warp to pathetic heretics armed with nothing but a club- on both sides of this conflict.

This is an RP in which huge NPC forces will be clashing around our characters and our factions, NPCs over which players will be allowed a significant amount of control to in order to advance the story. Players will work with the GMs (@Fallen Muse and myself) and with each other to decide the outcomes of battles and story arcs, and we will collectively decide how the war proceeds from stage to stage, with the GMs introducing major events as necessary to keep things moving.

The basic plot so far:

- warp-storm cuts off seleucis sector, chaos invades.

-Hiveworld of Dis falls to invaders/domestic rebels quickly, but Lord Militant Ravenstein reinforces the planet of Pontius Secondus and prepares for battle.

- Inquisitor Nox arranges a reinforcement party of Imperials during a break in the warp storm. Imperial reinforcements arrive on Pontius just before Chaos forces descend on the planet.

- Imperial forces are under the overall command of Lord-Militant von Ravenstein.

- Chaos forces will be commanded by a council of the most powerful chaos lords, known as the Council of Anarchs.

Expectations & Details:

- players will work with one another to tell the story of an epic conflict. If you are looking to play a competitive strategy game where you get to "win", you've come to the wrong place. (I suggest playing Dawn of War- it's alot of fun!) If you want to work with other 40K enthusiasts to create a unique setting, awesome characters, and a badass conflict- you've come to the right place.

- GMs word is final. We're going to be doing our best to make sure everything fits together, so please give us the benefit of the doubt. I'm not huge on starting an RP with 18,000 rules listed out, so when I or @Fallen Muse make a judgement call, please respect it.

- Since this game allows significant freedom and control over characters with a great deal of authority and power, please be cool like the Fonz. Lose a battle! get your squad wiped out!

- writing standards are advanced.

The Seleucis Subsector

Dis: Hive world with significant industrial capacity & of course a huge population. Dis fell quickly to chaos in the opening hours of the warpstorm, and after only a week chaos had taken the planet completely, with some Imperial forces barely able to escape off world. At the start of the RP, most chaos forces will be on Dis, preparing to invade Pontius Secundus.

Pontius Secundus: a terran planet with vast oceans and several large contintents with a variety of biomes. It is home to a few (relatively) small hive-cities and has a significant industrial output. Pontius is the gateway to the rest of the subsector, and it is here that Imperial forces are marshalling at the start of the RP, under the command of Governor-Militant Konrad von Ravenstein. Some Imperial forces from outside the Seleucis sector, requisitioned by Inquisitor Nox, will arrive on planet, managing to brave a gap in the warp storm, just before chaos forces attack.

Ptolomea: (OPEN for player creation)

Antenora: wasteland world with a few major settlements. Antenora is a radioactive desert, filled with crashed imperial cruisers from ancient naval battle, and infested with savage orks.

Serpens: Mechanicum Forge World, home of Titan Legion Serpens

Celestine V: civilized agri-world, throneworld of the sector and home of Governor Ravenstein
