I already had this sitting around in my Google Drive thingy, so I'll just link it instead of filling out the CS rubric thingy, I suppose. I just need to tinker with it a little, since we can apparently start off already aligned to a Chaos God.He's more or less what you'd expect to look like. Powdered wig, needlessly fancy clothes, etc.

Certainly an intriguing idea, I will ask you to roll stats for this campaign specifically though for him when you get the chance.

Greetings, fellow heretics, this is your captain speaking.I would like you to give a great big Heretical welcome to the ship we'll be traveling on: the Havoc-class merchant raider .Oh, and don't worry, Omega, it's all good now, I did the math stuff as I remade it.

I see you made some noteworthy alterations, I shall look over it more closely when I get a chance but I do not think I see any kind of a primary cargo hold of making off with acquired loot.

But is it an acquisition with a modifier +20 (and thus basically one common item) or one with a total modifier -30 and therefore 20 more than normal?

Think of it as adding 20 to your infamy.

Edit: After work tomorrow expect me to get up the starting setting. The current plan is an Imperial hive world which was nearing the throes of rebellion as several cults made large inroads into mid hive regions of most large hive cities. Zed's pirate prince was lured in by promises of wealth just in time for the Imperial response to show up. A veritable army of arbites and an actual army of Imperial Guard quickly made planetfall and the small escort fleet succeeded in chasing off Zed's vessel stranding him planetside.

The upper hives have now been secured in swift order and are pushing down into the mid-hive regions. Your characters will be given a choice, try to seize the world for your own or find a way to flee it before Imperial Guardsmen, Arbites, or even the rumored Inquisitors on planet kill you.

There is no Innocence, Only degrees of Guilt

I do not generally do posting orders but more let people post when they feel appropriate so long as they let other people have a chance for input.

There is no Innocence, Only degrees of Guilt

I was hoping to give everyone a chance to kind of introduce their character though will post again in a day or two.

Honestly, that makes it so worthless as to not bother with. Maybe start off with something good, but more likely get nothing or common junk? Not worth it in the slightest. XD

Well remember acquisition tests can be used for groups of items as well, though ya it does not seem to worth it unless you really want something and feel like you can get decent odds at it.

Rules of acquisition can get complex it seems taking things like flaws in the item, different grades that can be changed afterwards, and even making a test for just the parts of something.

Hah, I just noticed a mistake I made, i have been wondering why everyone's infamy was so high. it seems for everything else you roll 2d10 but for infamy is 1d5 at start.

I had to go look at that again when I saw it possible to start in terminator armor easily.

Edit: I see you rolled your right though I noticed that with the wealth pride you actually have to roll for the item in question.

The Trail of Dust WH40K Black Crusade

if you are looking for extra protection I noticed power armor is extremely rare and terminator armor near unique.

edit: did that entirely wrong.

And the default for 'what can you start with?' is Infamy Bonus items, each with an acquisition modifier of -10 at worst. Thus, Wealth would be one more of -30, wouldn't it?

Ah, yes, for that one test you can get an item that would be a -30 normally for you.

The Trail of Dust WH40K Black Crusade

I do not see the -30 Acquisition Modifier. Wealth as a pride let's you get something extra with a +20 bonus to the acquisition test and since you do not roll for acquisition tests during character creation is a decent chance at a rarer item at the cost of -3 WP.

Edit: I believe with your infamy score with the wealth pride you can acquire a near-unique item.

I'll stick to wielding my axe normally for now. And being a medic, I guess. XDI can also breathe in space, but it's questionable what use this is.

When you say "medic" do you mean like a helping people medic or a medic who wants to see what happens when he adds things to you kind of medic?

Also breathing in space has tons of uses, just imagine what you could do with that, like fighting a guy on top of a space ship.
