About the adventure
What's the campaign about? Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor Aegidius Halikarn has assigned you to investigate an incident at an acid refinery within Hive Rokarth. Rumours of some kind of miracle have been circulating and your patron wants answers. You must find out what truly happened and establish if this was a sign of a true saint of the Imperium or if this is an entirely explicable event. --- What is Imperium Maledictum? Having only recently emerged from the horrors of the Noctis Aeterna, the return of the Emperor’s Light has revealed the vast scale of the destruction across the Macharian Sector. The powers who dominate the sector, Imperial Adepts, scions of the noble houses, Adepta Sororitas Canonesses, Inquisitors, Rogue Traders, Ecclesiarchy Cardinals, and Tech-Priest Magi, are only now becoming aware of the scope of the devastation, as well as the opportunities it might represent. While all ostensibly work for the betterment of the Imperium and the sector, each also have their own agenda. For this reason they have recruited you, a deniable and expendable asset that can be used to advance their interests, and tossed aside when you are no longer fit to serve that purpose. How will the campaign work? We'll do a FREE session 0 to create characters and the adventure should take around 4 sessions to complete. Aiming to complete one session per week (preferably at the same time each week) starting at 6pm UK time and going on for around 4 hours (including breaks in that time) we can potentially continue after the end of this campaign should you wish. My games have lots of visual and audio elements to make you feel immersed in the game and encourage creativity. The game is an investigation so you'll be chasing leads and trying to smooth talk NPC's for information. But it's a dangerous world so you may end up in a fight or two along the way.

Additional details
How to prepare
A good quality microphone. Lots of background noise just breaks the immersion. Access to Discord and an account on Alchemy VTT is essential. It's free. A decent quality PC/Laptop (no phones or tablets). This is for using Alchemy as some low end pcs and tablets can't use Alchemy properly. The game is open to all skill levels. There's a rules reference I'll send you with information on the basic rules. Reading those would be helpful.
What I provide
I'll be running the game on Alchemy VTT using a host of maps, animated scenes, music and sounds for added immersion. You'll be able to adjust your own audio levels. To get the best experience it is recommended you have a decent PC/Laptop capable of running video games (no tablets or phones!) as the you'll miss out on the immersive features I've created on Alchemy for you and you'll feel left out. I expect chilled players who enjoy roleplaying interesting characters and engaging with the setting to create a fun experience. I use rules as written. If you're asking for something particular that's outside the rules I'll generally get you to justify your characters reasoning and rule based off that. At the end of the day we're here to have fun!
Gameplay details
As a general rule I ask for transparency. If something makes you uncomfortable then speak up. DM me on discord or say something and we can work on it straight away. I always ask before we start for any topics to avoid so we can avoid surprises. Alchemy also has safety tools that can allow players to communicate things are uncomfortable for them discreetly.

How will character creation work
We'll run a FREE session 0 to build your characters. The game has a system where you roll for your characters stats, background, role etc and receive bonus XP to add your own talents and skill boosts for doing so. It's a really fun way of making a character and brings everyone together to get the party dynamic rolling early. There are premade characters as a last resort but making your own character is preferable.
