Yeah just try not to kill each other, that would be great.
Alright I'm going to talk about some of the stuff LottaPumpkins brought up.
Rithy talked about her characters things already. Although her predictions may tell what the future holds, they're predictions, like she said she's gotten one wrong and one was vague. So it's sort of a hit or miss thing. Her divination powers though make my job a lot easier, I can use Rithy's character as an aid to help direct the plot.
As for MarcusXVI's Commissar, while I understand that usually Bolt-weapons are pretty unusable by normal humans, there are cases everywhere of guys using Bolters without breaking their arms. Commissar Yarrick lugs around a Stormbolter and fires it with his offhand. So, I made an exception for our Commissar. As for his Necron blade, I saw similarities between Slayer's Blade and the C'tan Phase Weapons used by the Callidus Assassins. I let him have it because I have a plan/plot for his character, and his sword.
Good luck Marcus.
Shadowman's assassin is yeah, one of the strongest characters we have right now due him being well, a Vindicare. We'll see how he progresses in the RP. But I let him in since a Vindicares strengths are sniping and stalking, and we won't be doing much of that in the RP.
Switch01's Malek is indeed another one of our strongest characters. I banned Grey Knights, Blanks, etc because of their immense strength and ability. However we do need a a good tanky person, and I thought he was a good way to acquire one without letting a Grey Knight in. Aside from lugging around an autocannon and being good at threatening doors so they open, Malek isn't that useful. He can't smooth talk his way past guards, or mingle with the nobles to acquire intel. And a character who has difficulty overcoming an obstacle is more fun to play as than one who can easily step over it, right?
And the kinds of missions we will be doing, usually isn't stealth subterfuge. We're an Ordo Malleus team, from my understanding, we go to where the Daemons are and smack them in the face. This mission where we've had to come up with disguises and false identities is the first time this team has had to do this sort of thing. So the team composition might not be tuned for said missions. We also won't be doing these sort of missions very often, maybe twice in total, out of the four/five planned.
While Findragon's Stormtrooper is a bit outlandish, as LottaPumpkins says, it's not impossible to have a constant lone survivor. Low level Psykers often find themselves to be incredibly lucky in most situations. This luck is out of their control and typically happens in high-stress environments, like a suicide mission. His character may change dramatically if he finds out that he has some Psychic ability, as it is a life changing discovery.
I may or may not also have a plan/plot for his character.
Hopefully this explains some of my thought processes when I approved these characters.

I'll be posting my thoughts about all this after i get home from my classes.
I will say that we wont be fighting mere cultists or normal daemons, so we can pardon most equipment, I'll actually be giving characters chances to pick up heavier weaponry at various points in the RP.
I was also thinking that the Commissars Necron sword was approved by [spoilers]. So we can wave the problem about his xenotech sword away too.
I have been busy.
With.... Things.

"I have found a few places my Lord that do arouse suspicion. Though a gallery has piqued my interest, I recommend going there first." His trusted Vindicare said, bringing up a dataslate. Zhevon leaned in closer to get a closer look at the picts, he nodded slowly. The gallery could be a quiet meeting point for any cultists. "For an item like yours. This is a good place to start. I will accompany you there and provide support." James assured.
"My thanks, friend." Zhevon said, bowing his head slightly in respect.
"My Lord, we should move. Something is amiss..." The Vindicare spoke up. He began to move towards the Cafe, which did feature a bar. It was also on an elevated position, making it an obvious choice for spotting. Zhevon followed closely, albeit less tense than his Vindicare companion. "Zhevon did you bring anybody else?"
"A number of my retinue." Zhevon replied as they were walking up the stairs.
"Oh, and before I forget. I didn't drink. Too many heretics here. They are hardly subtle...It is quite appalling and a test of my willpower." James remarked. Zhevon chuckled. "My Lord, I have a hidden cache nearby with my equipment inside, I will need to re-arm there before we proceed if that is alright."
"Of course. When we leave the port, we'll part ways. My retinue and I will go straight to this Gallery, and you can go to your cache. We will then both meet up at the front of the Gallery."
When they reached the Cafe, Zhevon looked around for a table for the two of them to lay low. Instead, he saw Adrianne. He tapped James on the arm, a way of getting his attention, and walked to her table. "Ah! Adrianne." He spoke, as if seeing an old friend, "This is James, we will be working with him." He introduced the Vindicare. He then pulled out a seat for him and gestured the Assassin to sit, while moving to sit on his own.
It was then that a Waitress appeared, ready to take their orders. Zhevon looked to the other two sitting at the table, and decided to order first.
"This Cafe does sandwiches, right?"
"Oh yes. Some of the best around. Just for you, we'll grab bread from LeDésir." She spoke in a sweet voice.
"Excellent. May I have a cup of Tanna? A cold sandwich as well, ham, lettuce, swiss, and light on the mayonnaise." He asked, she expertly jotted down his order, and waited for the other two to order. Once they had placed their orders, she walked away.
"Well, this seems like as good a place as any." Zhevon said, he placed the dataslate containing the picts of the Gallery on the table, but it was only a moment after he said that, that the Waitress placed down the drinks that they had ordered. Zhevon picked up his cup of Tanna and brought it up to his faceplate, the hot cup of tea marked his mask with steam. "A genuine cup of Tanna, wonderful."
The Waitress smiled, "We were surprised that an Inquisitor of your reputation would visit our little Cafe, so we are making sure that you receive our best."
Without skipping a beat, Zhevon replied, "You flatter, this Cafe is one of the most luxurious establishments I have ever had the pleasure to sit down at."
The Waitress smiled widely and practically waltzed off, pleased that he found the Cafe acceptable.
After looking to make sure that she had gone, Inquisitor Zhevon looked at James and Adrianne with his gold glowing eyes and plainly said,
"This disguise did not last as long as I thought it would."
"My thanks, friend." Zhevon said, bowing his head slightly in respect.

Wellp, I look away for a day and there's posts. So many posts. That'll teach me.
Just yesterday we were moving at a snails pace, now that there's stuff going on, we're going faster.
