The Warp is a native land for Humans... they just don't know it.
The Warp has kind of been... Corrupted so to speak but a better way to put it is the Warp is the spirit realm.
You know, where Yu-Gi gets threatened with all the time.
I burst out laughing at children's trading card games in 40k, thanks a lot for the mental image

What do you collectively call the head subordinates (astropath, navigator, seneschal, etc.) of a rogue trader? His officers?

All fanfics are heresy, each and every one, especially the shipping ones. Those are by far the worst.

I'd personally go with "entourage". A Rouge Trader group are a rather eclectic mix of powerful people afflicted with PC syndrome. Aside from the arch-militant, there's almost no reason for any of them to personally adventure with the RT other than thrill-seeking.

...Entourage is an accurate word for it, but I'd say that generally a Rogue Trader would wish to have a veneer of, well, officiality. I'd say Entourage OOC, and Officers when you're trying to impress governors or whatever. :P

Thanks. Entourage really is the right word.

There is no officiality for being a borderline-heretical weirdo who insists on bringing his pet witches, his priest, his butler, his bodyguard and his machine cult wrangler to spire dinner parties and acting like he's the put-upon one when Throne-fearing Imperial citizens object to sharing a room with such filth. And that's if the Rogue Trader doesn't have any xenos mercenaries or customized twists in the entourage.

I can only even imagine what the bridge officers, holding actual naval rank, would think of having their titles appropriated for the captain's cavalcade of freaks.

The only individuals who fear the Golden Throne are heretics and mutants.

Xenos have no souls to be eternally damned and so have no fear of the God-Emperor, only His servants, as they have no true understanding of Him on Terra.

Latent psychers have good reason to be afraid, especially specifically of the Golden Throne.  But I suppose they count as "mutants" :P

Thanks. Entourage really is the right word.

Crew and officers would also be acceptable substitutes. Entourage sounds appropriate when they're out and about off their own ship. Crew & Officers might be more appropriate when they're aboard the ship.
