Gangnamstein22

Set before the fall of Cadia, the players must defend key Imperial worlds.

Author's Note: Premade characters start at Cadia Gate, generated start in Necromunda. The premade players are agents of the Inquisition/Deathwatch, tasked with eliminating Chaos threats spreading from the Eye of Terror in The Shattered Imperium universe. Set before the fall of Cadia, the players must defend key Imperial worlds, confront dangerous secrets, and navigate moral dilemmas. They will travel to both well-known and obscure Warhammer 40K locations, uncovering forgotten relics, hidden Warp rifts, and the rise of a secret Tzeentch cult. Chaos corruption will test their sanity and faith, while powerful allies like the Deathwatch guide them through the Imperium’s darkest days.

Description

Necromunda is a sprawling hive world teeming with towering spires, sprawling underhives, and toxic wilderness. It's a dangerous starting zone for fresh characters eager to prove themselves. The hive cities of Necromunda offer everything from gritty urban encounters to untamed wilderness exploration, combining intrigue, survival, gambling, dungeon crawling, and faction politics. Rules: -Players should feel like their actions can change the dynamics of the city—build relationships with factions, gain influence, and uncover secrets hidden in the depths of Necromunda. -Use Necromunda's verticality to emphasize the difference between its bustling commerce districts, decaying lower levels, and the lawless ash wastes. -Introduce connections to the Inquisition, which uses Necromunda's chaos to root out heresy. -Avoid cliché fantasy tropes (no mysterious hooded figures or intricately-carved boxes).
