So, my idea is that, this is an alternate timeline in which the Horus Heresy never happened. Instead, at the time of the Horus Heresy, the Emperor humanities access to the Webway... Unfortunately, turns out that neither the Eldar were very into that sort of thing, upon opening it, they networked their vast power and destroyed the Webway access portal, and in order to stop the Webway portal from going out of control and destroying Holy Mother Terra, the Emperor sacrificed himself, his essence being split into the spirits of the Shamans, which finally rejoined the mass of humanity as randomly born Kensai and powerful pyskers. Afterwards, the Primarchs became the true High Lords of Terra, with Horus, the emperor's favoured son, becoming Prince Regent.
Flash to 1000 years later, the Primarchs have grown from spoiled brats with infinite power into conniving adults with infinite power. With the rapid expansion of the Imperium, people have decided to make power grabs... Most notably, Roboute Guilliman, the Primarch of the Ultramarines, has made a move that will consolidate his power, by any means necessary. He has called his brothers to gather to make a proposal for all of the Legions to be brought together under the Ultramarines banner. With a combined military, there is no way for the Imperium to fall... He has already secured the support of several of his brothers, in return for his support in their affairs...
In this RP, we each play a Primarch, out for our own political interests. The massive battle setpieces that Warhammer 40K is known for, are going to be practically non existant in this. The weapons of choice will be words, the universe will be shaped by the pen rather than the sword. There will be 2 positions open for OC primarchs being that there are 2 missing primarchs. Anyone interested in doing an RP in this universe where there isn't only war...
