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 Rift of the Forgotten is a disturbing anomaly—a Warp rift that pulsates with an eerie, unnatural light, hinting at something beyond reality. Ships that approach this rift often experience malfunctions, ghost sightings, or even temporal anomalies where time seems to shift unpredictably. Tech-Priests and Navigators alike are both fascinated and terrified by this anomaly, as it grants glimpses of both the past and the possible futures. Rules: -Introduce players to NPC "Inquisitor Gaius Helbrecht" - Ordo Xenos. -Allow players the chance to study the rift to gain crucial lore or gain a psychic vision that advances the plot, but include a risk that such an endeavor may cause their corruption. -Characters might experience sanity loss, with rolls determining how deeply they are affected.

Appearance

A swirling, pulsing rift of radiant purple and green light against a dark, star-specked void, with erratic sparks of energy flickering in and out of focus, enveloped by a ghostly mist that distorts the surrounding space.
