Subject: DH2 - Xanthite faction game - CLOSED Fri Sep 04, 2020 6:52 am
Looking to start up a DH2 game based on the Xanthite faction of the inquisition. I expect applicants to read the following link to get a feel https://warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Xanthite
Your inquisitor will be part of Ordo Malleus and also a Xanthite.
I have 2 spots reserved and I'm looking for 2-3 more players.
I'm starting everyone off at 5000xp so you'll get to flesh out your characters some.
As we're playing in the realms of the Xanthite faction I'd expect characters to have that kind of leaning, or perhaps they don't care or perhaps they owe the inquisitor their life and do what they have to do to get by, their souls be damned. Its a chance to more openly play a mutant, a rogue psyker, a heretek or an ex deamon host or whatever... while still beholden (perhaps) to Him on That Throne.
... the starting point for all of the PCs will be a penal colony. You've been sent there for whatever crime guilty or innocent, or you could even work there. The story will not be on the penal colony but its the starting point.

Good to have you back on the site Richard, you're more than welcome. With you I have three players (Azza, Iron and Metal and Sylphilis) with another possible who will decide in 3-4 weeks if he has time to spare (Murcurie). So we'll be looking to start posting in the last week of October.
However I'm cool to run the game with 3 players so we'll get the game forum up soon and we can start sorting out characters.
I'm still looking for one more player if anyone is interested.

Final call before starting. I've got 4 players but happy to take 1 more.
Recruitment for the game will stay open for 1 more player once we've started. I'll engineer dropping someone into the game but you'll have to wait until a suitable time.

Did this game get going yet? I’d be interested in seeing what kind of characters everyone picked to see if they have a role missing in their group that I could fill.

We're still open for one more for this game. We're very soon going to be getting into the meat of the adventure so can easily fit someone else in at the moment.

Great, you're more than welcome. We're currently trying out Discord instead of LINE (just trying it out for now).
Have a look at the current characters and get a feel for what you want to play. FYI - the psyker in the group is likely dropping out although we do not need a psyker so if you're game just choose what's fun.

Are all the characters currently shown on the PC sub forum currently being played? Just so I have some reference for what would fit best!
I'm interested in playing a mutant of some flavor, not sure if they'd be a psyker or something more mundane. A sister of battle could also be fun, though obviously one with a bit... Extreme beliefs, compared to other sisters.

Everyone apart from Kage is active.
We have... 2 Psykers (1 a social type the other a melee fighter) 1 Null / Assassin 1 Tech and general know it all (lots of lores) who can also cover medicae 1 Warrior / Hive Ganger (combat drug junky)
If you want to play a sister thats ok, but yes as you've pointed out the Inquisitor wouldn't have picked you if you'd be overly challenging to her Xanthite leanings. If you choose that path your background will need to be interesting while maintaining your faith (if you want faith powers). If you wanted to plug a gap the group is already strong in melee and lacks a ranged specialist, so a sister with a boltgun would fit that. Mutants are also fun... (the PC Lokar gained his psi powers from his mutation)).
I've a few ideas for how an adepta sororitas PC could fit if you're not sure and favour that.
