The Ordo Hereticus, one of the 3 major Ordos of the Inquistion, tasked with hunting down heretics such as witches, mutants and traitors. This RP will follow the investigation of an Inquisitor of this Ordo.

Rules: • Players can create characters ranging from a simple Guardsman over Tempestus Scions and Battle Sisters to Space Marines in Terminator Armor. Backup characters can be created in advance or by necessity. • Combat will mostly involve NPCs. It's pretty liberal, but try to keep it reasonable (in 40K terms). • PvP will be decided by d20 rolls performed by me. It's mainly a 'fail or succeed' decision with criticals representing extreme outcomes, e.g. a 1 on shooting is a weapon jamming while a 20 could be a shot hitting a critical weakness. • There are 4 slots open. If you want to participate, just post a character with a short description, wargear, background.

Any questions that you might have or that come up can be posted on this thread as well.

Intro:

''The Valkyrie's frame shakes and rumbles as the vessel dives into the atmosphere of Bolna Sott, an Agri-World on the northern fringes of the Cinnabar Sector. The cramped interior is illuminated by a flaring red light and packed tightly with gear, weapons and last but not least the warriors gathered here by request of an Inquisitor. The howling of the engines makes communication barely possible, but eventually, the red light dies out in favor of the standard, dimly white lamps aligned on the ceiling of the cabin. ''

''The vessel slows down, the feeling of motion fading for that of descent and with a rumbling and a metallic thud, it connects to the ground. A moment later, the hatch opens with a hiss as fresh, cold air gushes into the fuggy cabin, opening to a dark sky and pouring rain. The landing platform is rectangular, its ferrocrete cracked and the Imperial Aquila pale and washed out. Elevated above a landscape of swampy flatland, a short set of metallic stairs connects it to a bleak platform overlooking a worn out rail line which disappeared in the rain.''

''An archaic looking train waits at the platform, spalling red paint barely concealing the signs of many, many repairs. Spewing fumes into the air, its engine bubbled idly as a door in the side swung open. In the formed rectangle of light stood a shadowy figure, its features unrecognizable safe for one thing: The broad-rimmed, tall hat commonly associated with the Ordo Hereticus.''
