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

The Iron Cairn stands as a gruesome monument, a massive heap of bones, war relics, and iron spikes. Each piece tells a story of Perturabo’s ruthless conquest, a warning to all who would defy him. Players experience danger as they explore the remnants of war. Players may explore the cairn in search of relics, but such actions risk disturbing the restless spirits of those who died here. Failed stealth rolls could lead to ghostly attacks, and players must decide if the potential rewards are worth provoking the dead. Successful exploration may yield unique relics that provide powerful boons.

Appearance

A vast mound of bleached bones and rusted iron artifacts protruding from the parched earth, surrounded by ominous storm clouds swirling overhead, with faint whispers echoing in the wind.
