“In the grim darkness of the far future there is more than war. There are real people there too.”


This post is looking for a GM.

This prompt is not beholden to Owlcat's CRPG nor to strong authenticity of canon lore. I view everything through whatever serves to tell a quality story as well as the Rule of Fun and Rule of Cool. It is my presumption that this story will follow the Rogue Trader (2023) plot to some extent, but I really don't care if somebody completely unfamiliar with the game reached out to do this prompt. Unless I tell you no, the answer is probably yes. The intended kinks for this plot will deviate wildly between characters I'll be playing and will often be decided upon whatever my partner most enjoys. Current working theories include a bisexual Iranian man or a lesbian Indian woman as the MCs, each with their own tastes and desires.

Content warning; genocide, the surveillance state, trauma, indoctrination, potential references to topics of survivalism including non-fetishized cannibalism.

i give you hope



HOMEWORLD

Primitive World



Whether they be worlds that were outside the reach of the Great Crusade or lost to bureaucracy, the Imperium is not as great a monolith of mankind as it would care to admit. The inhabitants of some of these worlds will pray to a half-remembered human god with rituals that would be unrecognizable to any branch of dogma, while others never knew of the Emperor or his empire.

ORIGIN

THE LUCKY CASTAWAYS

The Age of Strife was not kind to sentient life no matter its species. Nonhuman empires thrived in the chaos, bringing ruin to lives that only sought peace - but, more often than they reaped souls, they stole them, lifting them away as cargo on their ships so that they could perform the labor their masters hid from. One such ship belonged to your ancestors, but unlike many others, this ship crashed on a habitable world, and the survivors worked together to build a new home for one another and their children.

TRIUMPH

LOST TO THE WARP

You survived where all others perished in the bowels of a space hulk lost to the Warp after a terrorist destroyed himself and the Gellar Field.

DARKEST HOUR

XENOS LOVER



Although none speak the words, all know of your childhood spent amongst Xenos and their human slaves and lovers. It was only your blood and youth that saved you from the virus bombs that consumed the world you grew up on.

ARCHETYPE

SLEEPER AGENT

Do not believe the Emperor and His monster's lies. All sentient life carries within it the capacity to love and be loved. You were happy, once. Your people were happy. The Imperium and its dogs burnt away the only hope left in the galaxy, and all debts must be paid. You are a master of obfuscation, hiding your most deep of thoughts and most deep of needs whilst knowing the worst things about people with only a glance. Precious years of necessary education and training were denied to you that others take for granted, but you are uniquely suited to interact with nonhumans.

"I feel as if I am . . . a pilgrim, Ibram."


. . .

Emperor: The deity and secular ruler of Mankind, and the one who tore you from your family and then disintegrated them from orbit. He must die. He. Must. Die.

The Imperium of Man: A staggering amount of worlds whose singular unifying feature is their loyalty to the Emperor on Terra. Any attempt to imagine the number of worlds makes your head ache.

So, you're looking for a GM, correct? I can't say I've ever done a 1x1 RP, but I could certainly try my hand if you'd be willing. I'm familiar enough with the world of 40k to wing it, and gotten through roughly the 65% threshold of the game in question (according to PS's tracking thing). Still, I know enough about the setting (both broad and specific) to run something.

This writing sample you have is fantastic, by the way.

You're too kind; thank you. Like my post says you're free to wing as much of the universe as you'd like and operate solely on vibes and whatever happens to sound cool or interesting. I only really care about some level of internal consistency within the vacuum of a story, and even then that tends to be pretty shaky with me. I'll drop you a message in just a moment.
