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

The Black Library is an enigmatic repository of all knowledge regarding the Chaos Gods, cloaked within the ethereal expanse of the Webway and zealously defended by the Harlequins. Gaining access demands both humility and cunning, as only those deemed worthy by the Eldar may behold its secrets. Within its shadowy confines lie potent texts and relics that could turn the tide against the encroaching Chaos forces; however, those who dare to disrespect or flaunt their ignorance may find themselves exiled into the dark void of the Webway.

Appearance

A dimly lit corridor with glimmering sigils etched into the walls, spiraling shelves overflowing with ancient manuscripts, and flickering lights that dance over the shadowy alcoves where Harlequins remain vigilant, with a soft echo of whispers reverberating through the air.
