If anyone else wants to join, this is still open. There's still time!

[abculatter_2]

Could I join as one of these?

[Cthulhu]

Psykers are even more guaranteed to die than the others because of perils of the warp.

[HonkyPunch]

Judging from the description, those are a bit more advanced than your first level/class psykers.
maybe you could build up to one, though?

[Cthulhu]

As a general rule of thumb, if you see it in the tabletop game, chances are it's way out of your league, and would kill your entire party in two rounds.

I'm trying to decide what class I'll be.  If someone wants Psyker I might end up being a scum or an arbitrator.

[HonkyPunch]

Yeah, that's what i've been hearing. The idea is to start as low level weaklings and die before you get very powerful, ahah.
A lot of pen and paper roleplaying games have low life expectancies so I imagine that one as GRIMDARK as this would have a very low one.
Though out of the roleplaying games i've played, Call of Cthulhu/Cthulhu d20 had the lowest, yet somehow our Luchadore and Samurai managed to be the most effective in combat.

[Cthulhu]

Rogue Trader puts you at a significantly higher power-level, that's another RPG I'd like to try.

Anyway, my guy's almost ready, and will be up shortly.

[HonkyPunch]

Yeah, I want to try some rogue trader at some point. Sounds pretty cool, being able to fly around kicking heads in for profit.

Description:  Tall, with a wiry, muscular build.  His clothing is aged and dirty, with many patched and unpatched holes, and he wears an old leather jacket with faded gang colors (red and black).  Nearly every inch of exposed skin, and likely most of the unexposed skin, is emblazoned with various tattoos, and his hair is a garish green, bladelike mohawk.

Background:  Tarkan grew up in the lowers parts of the hives, fending for himself, and as a child developed a fanatical hatred for mutants and abhumans.  As a teenager he became the leader of a small gang and under his  quickly expanded until the gang ruled a sizable area, brutally suppressing those he saw as impure.  Unfortunately, nearly all of his friends in the upper ranks of the gang were killed in a disastrous heist attempt on an upper hive block.  Captured by the adeptus arbites, Tarkan surely would have met an inglorious end were it not for an inquisitor visiting the prison looking for recruits that weren't afraid to break the law doing the Emperor's will.  Tarkan accepted the offer only because it would get him out of prison.  He suspects once he has outlived his usefulness or steps on the wrong toes he will be killed and replaced, and fully intends to desert as soon as the opportunity presents itself.  He cares little for the Emperor, and his hate of mutation is personal, not religious.

I believe everything is in order, if something isn't tell me.  It's been a while since I've played DH.

[HonkyPunch]

Nice. I'm having a bit of a problem choosing.
Male Hiveworlder Assassin or Female Voidborn Assassin.

[Cthulhu]

So do we have anyone planning to be adepts or clerics or anything?  You gotsta have your smartypantses.

Also, Culexis assassin, everything else is for bitches.

Also also, the newest WH40k RPG, Deathwatch, will apparently have Officio Assassinorum guys as well as Space Marines, but I'm not sure when it comes out.

[Sneevil]

well i'm rolling cleric. oh and about the perils of the warp the chance you turn into an unbound demonhost is a thing i'd rather not take

[Cthulhu]

Then maybe I'll be the psyker.  I dunno, I'm still not entirely sure my above character is notable enough to be taken in by an inquisitor, so I might make a new one.

[Sneevil]

if you want to be a psyker you may but i'l be putting you down if you get a bit too bonkers in the upstairs

[Cthulhu]

I KNEW YOU WOULD SAY THAT
