"In my hand is a small badge with the ability to damn billions to their deaths and yet this weapon is to never see an open battle.
For us Inquisitors fight a war against shadows, in the shadows, and born of shadows; glory is not part of the job description."




"Chasing the one known as Kartez Korhallen is the greatest test I have ever faced; but my soul is armored in faith. The Imperial Creed guides me, banishing all doubt or regret. The Emperor stands with us and I have felt the purity of his righteousness. I have witnessed his glory burn away the darkness. I have seen the Imperium's indomitable ferocity unleashed upon its many enemies. I saw courage and valor displayed in his most honorable name. I bear witness to the unwavering loyalty which he inspires. No fortress can stand against his fury, no fury, his protection, no corruption, his light. There is no curse which he cannot sunder for his glory shines to those who embrace his ideals.

Everything I have done, sacrificed, preformed, investigate and committed has been in his name to protect his Imperium but now I have failed. I beg for repentance but I have not the breath for it but I do wish to note that he has lead me to all of my actions. I can only pray to him that my apprentice can take up my mantle and continue my work. My time is near but her's is just beginning. My child, if you ever find this, I am sorry I have left you with precious little for you to work with but as of now, I ordain you an official servant of his majesty; thou are now an Inquisitor of your own right. The appropriate officials have already been contacted. Please, hunt down this vile slave of Chaos... for me... for the Imperium... for the Empero––"
Dying breath of Inquisitor Karthis moments before his ship was destroyed




While the Imperial Guard and the Adeptus Astartes may fight in glorious open battle with songs sung to their names, you have been gathered for a very different type of war. Not one which requires you to charge a bunker head on or drop from orbit in glorified metal box (under ideal circumstances), but one which requires a more inquisitive eye and a more specialized skill set.

In case you haven't figured it out by now, this is a 40k RP based around an Inquisitor and their retinue taking nod from the Dark Heresy RPG game and The Emperors Blade's brilliant RP which inspired all of this which you can see here. So in a way all credit goes to him for this. That said, I'm not nearly as well versed in the at of GMing real tabletop games, never mind Dark Heresy so there will be obvious differences and I am going to have to ask for forgiveness for any derps I may make. That said, I will be attempting to mimics DH is some limited form. As to what you (the players) will be playing, everyone will be part of an inquisitorial retinue lead by an Inquisitor played by @Ollumhammersong.

In regards to writing, this should be about High Casual in that I'm looking for players who can write 2-3 paragraphs at least and have a level of maturity and understanding of how to write a good collective story instead of trying to constantly do their own thing. As to number of players, I'm looking for a handful of people like 4-5 with the Inquisitor included at max. If there's more then who will be accepted will be discussed between me and the Inquisitor.



Rules:

  • My Word is Law – I am a hardass GM but I do not wish to have to use an iron fist. I am willing to talk but what I say goes unless I go against it and I also reserve the right to go against my own rules should I deem it necessary. @Ollumhammersong is a co-GM and his word should be respected unless I personally say something on it.
  • This is inspired by Dark Heresy, but not a Dark Heresy RP and such will not be exactly following everything it presents. Please do excuse any deeps I may have.
  • Be mature when dealing with one another and keep any disagreements strictly IC
  • Do understand the circumstances which the IC is taking place, I promise you there’s a reason why you can’t bring a twin linked plasma cannon and a D-weapon and that I am trying my best to make a good story here.

@Jbcool Reminds me a bit of the blind monk from Rouge One

I just have a quick question on his martial arts, does he actually do Neo-level gymnastics while yoga-fighting?


Well, he isn't blind...but yes, he probably can do that last part. Not that he'd want to unless he needed to.

@Jbcool Ideally this would have been kept to its original parent but oh well
So long as he's not pulling out anti-gravity fighting styles all the time and goes head long into all fights, go for it.

NAME: Inquisitor Tarmon Vosk

AGE: 27

GENDER: Male

WARGEAR:

custom pattern laspistol

Personal clothing & attire, padded & lightly protected.

Servo Skull

Various items from his personal armoury,

Viper class scout sloop
-Naval armsman, Slaves, Servitors, other associated resources

Inquisitorial Rosette

NOTABLE EVENTS:
-Information Classified by order of His most Holy Majesties Inquisition-

PERSONALITY:
Stern and uncompromising. He has not been an inquisitor nearly long enough to throw himself behind, or be placed into any circles or inquisitorial sub factions like radical or Puritan. Time, plus a lifetime of seeing the absolute worst the galaxy can throw at you will make its mark on him yet. But for now he is mostly a clean slate as far as other inquisitors are concerned. He is more tempered than his known radical master but still proves willing to take a risk or ask questions. His future choices and actions will determine which, if any groups he becomes associated with.

He is still ruthless and capable of extreme brutality as is any inquisitor. Even most trusted acolytes are disposable if they overstep themselves or fall to corruption. But he has never had to make a decision as grave and irrevocable as exterminatus of an entire planet or obliterating an entire hive city population.

By and large he is capable of imitating a variety of personalities and habits. But naturally he is a very self assured and confident individual. Perhaps a little arrogant, though given he is still a youth and one with a ludicrous amount of power at his fingertips, and he was raised to his position from a radical master. So this may not be wholly unsurprising.

He is unquestioningly loyal to the Imperium and the Emperor. And despite what his seemingly carefree and impulsive approach to the cuties of his office might otherwise imply, he does greatly respect and feel the weight on his shoulders. He is required to make decisions of such weight and gravity that It might even cripple the mind of an astartes with guilt and self doubt. And the recent death of his master struck a dent to his usual bravado. Teaching him that even agents of the throne as lofty as inquisitors are not beyond death.

As far as the execution of his duties goes he prefers the tried and true approach of inquisitors. No one should ever be able to identify you to begin with. He prefers to blend in and will never introduce himself as an inquisitor unless he feels it absolutely necessary. Often he pretends to be an acolyte of the throne. An agent of a more powerful inquisitor, finding that such a half truth is often more believable than a flat out lie.

@Ollumhammersong Provided you don't have the "kill acolytes if they disobey" thing, I'd say you're golden.

@All, I'll see to starting up the IC soon now that we have the Inquisitor and several others up now.

Well he wont actually kill the other players. But he is an inquisitor, so that mindset of 'everyone is expendable, no exceptions' is kind of a requirement in his line of work. Even if he really really likes them. In the back of his head he would still consider killing them if it was absolutely necessary. because that is his job.

@ClocktowerEchos I am not sure to be honest, yet. I do have a handful of rp's I'm trying to put quality in right now, but I am uncertain how active they are going to be. I may join this still, or I may do so a bit later.
