Warhammer 40k RPG - Rogue Trader

The Warp surrounds the Empire. Only the bravest venture into the Warp.

The threats are endless. The possibilities are immeasurable. The wealth of innumerable planets awaits the bold, the brave, or the foolish.

It is time to venture forth. Leave behind the shackles of humanity. Embrace your destiny or meet your demise.

Do you have the talent to stretch forth into the stars and grab your destiny with lightning claws?

Sign here to join the expedition. Or ask questions.

Sundays - 2 pm East - 6 pm East. Roughly 3 Sundays per month.

Your tale begins on May 18th.

 

The warp is only terrifying to those who do not comprehend it's power!
..But never fear, I see the truth. It calls out to me saying that I am to arrive on the 25th of May, no sooner, or no later.
Beware the lies of man!

 

Enlist me to the crew!

Are we doing preset characters or self made?

 

are alien races ok?

 

We will be making characters on the 18th.

Aliens I am debating on. With the default "setting" of Rogue Trader, they would be problematic.

Which Xeno are you thinking of and why would you be aboard a ship full of Imperium crew?

 

Kroots sometimes sell their services as mercenaries, mostly to gather as much gene material as possible so their children will be stronger, at least thats what i remember from fluff.

Of course if you would prefer to have human only crew thats fine by me too.

 

Depending of the Rogue Trader in question (how hard-line they are) Kroot mercenaries could definitely make sense.

Some other races...less so.

 

Apparently I cannot edit my first post to update the list of players. But at the moment we have:

Caesar
Solomance

and a few sorta kinda maybes.

 

I do have rules and will allow Orks and Kroots. However, I will warn you in advance that there will be serious downsides to either one. Including the fact that any humans that are not part of the crew (and possibly some who are but are not player characters) will be very racist and likely to shoot first.

 

Thats fine, we have captain for negotiations. I am content with being tracking machine.

 

I really wanted to make an entire dwarf space marine company (yes, there -are- dwarf space marine models) but it wouldn't really be worth the investment unless I win the lottery
(I found my dwarmarine!)

 

I am able and ready to face the unknown, sire!

 

Putte makes 3 officially saying yes.

Caesar
Solomance
Putte

Jacob, should we put you officially on the list? Anyone else?

 

yep, i am 99.99% sure ill show up

 

Okay, we have 3.9999 players.

This isn't going to be enough to play, do we have anyone else wishing to join us?

 

I wish I could, there's just no way I'm going to be able to commit to a weekend day this close to summer, I can barely commit to a weekend day in the off season -some- of the time

 

ive been spreading the word around and its more or less the same, people enjoy the idea but no one wants to commit. If we dont get another then maybe later down the road there will be more willing.

 

I sent a few messages aswell, hopefully not annoying the butts off people that Caesar already talked to.
