Game Overview
This is a play-by-post of Dark Heresy exploring the incredible Haarlock's Legacy trilogy. Written by Alan Bligh and John French, the scenario explores many of the old ghosts and horrors lying in wait at the very foundations of the Calixis sector. It's also all but outwardly stated that the material in the adventure will be at the core of the upcoming Owlcat game.If you're on the discord and you want to join, just give Kaiser a shout.
Current XP is 4,300
A bonus 100 XP can be earned through a creative work of any kind that establishes what your character was up to at the beginning of their entrance into the campaign
A bonus 50 XP can be earned each scene for a dialogue aside or join creative work with another player (This can only be earned once, but you're welcome to do multiple!)
Everything within the FFG rulebooks is free-game in terms of material. For more detail on character creation - reach out to Kaiser.
House Rules
Overall, I tend to run games that reward creativity and helping fellow players tell their stories and enjoy the campaign. With that in mind, my rules are mostly technical.
Unnatural Characteristics simply add a +10 on top to a stat per rank, rather than DoS for successful tests
You may exchange one aptitude at the end of an arch to represent character growth, but you need to produce some kind of creative work that supports this new change in direction!
Cast
Quintos, Administratum adept turned poison-based assassin. A clever good man and good dad.
Lovelace, Lexmechanic in training turned Medicae. Everything is crochet if you really think about it. Sweet, strange, deft, occasionally quite lost.
Franziska, Heretek turned inquisition asset. Artifact hunter from a strange, far-away knight world. Brusque in a 'its not me, it's you' sort of way.
Spica, Scion of a Navigator house and inquisitional asset. Strangely streetsmart and with good reason, but you would never know it at first glance. Also a Medicae.
Phantine, Dogmatic Ministorum librarian, turned zealot inquisitorial soldier. Always ready with a prayer, scholarly reference, or Chainsword.
Thorne, washed out Interrogator, addict, and psyker, although you might not know that last part by looking at him. Fiendishly intelligent much to his own detriment.
