In the dark eddies of the Warp something has awakened...something...hungry.
In this yawning void, it is your task, Explorers, to go boldly where no man has gone before. To discover the undiscovered. To explore the final frontier. And to survive.
====================================================================
This is a game set in the Warhammer 40000 universe, where the great Empire of Man has spanned half the galaxy, where everything else is hell-bent on its destruction, where horrors and wonders alike await him in the strange and mysterious Expanse.
Characters are part of a Rogue Trader's ship, playing important members of his crew, tasked with adventuring for the glory of Mankind and for profit...often just the latter.
I will be using the Rogue Trader core rule book unless otherwise indicated.
Characters will be built using 100 characteristics points and the standard origin paths. Ideally, someone will want to play the Rogue Trader, the Captain of this motley crew, but I'm not going to force anyone to play him/her. Let's start with basic character creation first, before spending any experience beyond the origin, and then work our way from there. It may be that we can't get enough interest to really get this going, but I could see this working with a minimum of 2.5/3 players (the half is if I have to make an assistant-type NPC to run critical parts of the ship, like navigation)
