Background and role in the sense the character generator uses, I think. Also, if she somehow came to the belief that chaos wasn't evil, she'd be dead. If not shot by the Inquisitor for heresy, then possessed by a daemon or killed by one. Most likely possessed. And if the father had been a follower of Nurgle he either wouldn't have died or would have become a plague zombie, most likely. And this is not the kind of setting that allows an 'exception to the rule'.

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

So is that it for my character?

Everything seems to be in order. Did you purchase an aptitude with EXP? It's free if you had overlapping Aptitudes, and I don't think you can buy Aptitudes with EXP anyway. You also have 150xp remaining, so you could still buy a rank in a skill.

You and MNiI should also get things from the Armory, Chapter V. You get an amount equal to your Inf bonus, so 2 items of Scarce rarity or better.

Yes. Wasn't that what the "Stat picker" section of the character generator?

And I don't have the rulebook. Suggestions?

He's dead becuase the inquistor killed him flat out and she came to the theory that chaos wasent evil through logic more then the warp she figures that since her father was a good man chaos couldn't be evil yes i am aware that if anyone fimds out she's dead as a doorknob.

That does not change the fact that if she caused daemons to appear, she would be possessed or dead. And it's one or the other, there's no surviving the summoning of daemons. Especially if it's more than one.

Kay let's make someone else summon demons and not her then that seems a lot more realistic for her survival.

To be honest, unless she was in the process of being evacuated when the daemons were summoned, she'd probably be possessed anyway. Unsanctioned psykers are not good at resisting daemons. But it's up to the GM in the end.

Also, in 40k they're specifically daemons.

That's kinda what i was saying she was probably one of the first off the planet and i thought daemons was just a nickname among 40k for em.

That still leaves the issue that if she was actively looking into the warp for three years, there is a literally zero chance she isn't possessed. And even if she somehow wasn't- and that would take literal divine intervention by the Emperor at least- she wouldn't have any training with her powers, and would be summarily executed to prevent her from being possessed or summoning daemons. The Imperium does not take kindly to unsanctioned psykers.

Okay what does sanctioning imply?and when i meant 3 years i meant over 3 years meaning I'd say she looked into the warp a maximum of 5 times over that period.

Sanctioned means the Imperium knew about her and took her to be trained at the Scholastica Psykana when she was a little kid at the oldest. This would lead to a career in the Adeptus Astra Telepathica (which would be what you put in for 'background'). If anyone knew she was a psyker and she wasn't a sanctioned one, she'd be shot. And possibly so would anyone that saw her using her powers.

And I don't have the rulebook. Suggestions?

                   NAME              CLASS    RANGE    ROF    DAM   PEN CLIP SPECIAL     WT.      AVL.
How about: 2 Frag Grenades | Thrown | SBx3 | S/–/– | 2d10 X | 0 | 1 | Blast (3) | 0.5kg | Common

And:           Sword              | Melee   |   —   |    —   | 1d10 R | 0 |   | Balanced | 3kg    | Common

I'll help you out in a bit, Abstract.

That works.

And maybe I could replace the stat I thought I could purchase (which I apparently can't) with a talent? Are there any talents that would cost the amount of exp I'd have left?

So she would have been adopted into that at ten when she discovered she had them sp i can defintly adapt the backstory to  that and just having her leave at a much earlier age.
