About the adventure
Attention, pathfinders of the Greater Good! Stranded by the Great Rift and cut off inside the Gilead System, a T’au strike force clings to survival aboard the stealth cruiser II’Porrui. Your cadre will refuel, rebuild, and recruit, balancing soft-power diplomacy with precision strikes, while hunting for a missing Ethereal and carving a quiet foothold beneath hostile stars. Play as members of the T’au castes and their allies: Fire Caste hunter teams, Water Caste envoys and infiltrators, Earth Caste tech-adepts, Air Caste pilots and scouts, plus Kroot and Vespid auxiliaries, or even desperate human defectors drawn to the promise of the Greater Good. Your crew is not a band of pirates; it is a deniable cell working from the shadows, choosing Kauyon (patient lure) or Mont’ka (decisive strike) to win impossible odds. Expect tense stealth ops in neon-lit industrial corridors, fraught negotiations with Mechanicus handlers and Inquisition eyes, forays to a derelict Kroot warsphere, and crystalline gardens guarded by Aeldari. You will sabotage auspex nets, restart drowned refineries, recover archeotech, and make hard choices about which worlds to help, and which to leave behind. No extra books or apps required: we run on Foundry VTT with ready to use, gridless top down maps and scene lighting. Just bring your mic, your wits, and your best plan B. So, seal your helmets, prime the drones, and ready your pulse weapons. Step lightly across the Dock Manifold of PR-45, speak softly in the cant mechanum, and let your actions argue for the Greater Good. Join us for a campaign of precision, persuasion, and peril, from Tier 2 ops to a Tier 5 decision that will define the T’au in Gilead. Slots are limited. Assemble your cadre, and advance the Greater Good.

Creating your character
Charter creation in Wrath and Glory is quick and easy. To get started, you'll choose a faction from among the various factions, Imperial, Eldar, Ork, to name a few. Each faction has its own unique strengths and weaknesses, as well as special abilities and equipment. Once you've chosen your faction, you'll select your character's archetype. This will determine your character's role on the crew, such as a combat specialist or a tech expert. You'll also choose a background, which will give you additional skills and abilities. Next, you'll allocate points to your character's attributes, which represent their physical and mental capabilities. These attributes include things like Strength, Agility, and Intelligence. You'll also choose a set of skills, which represent your character's specific talents and abilities. Finally, you'll select your character's gear and weapons. This is where you'll choose your character's signature equipment, such as a power sword or a custom-built lasgun. You'll also have the option to choose additional equipment, such as grenades or a grappling hook. All of these choices come together to create a unique character that is ready to explore the universe of Warhammer 40k. And with the game taking place on the VTT Foundry, you won't need to purchase any additional materials to get started. So gather your crew and get ready to set sail on a journey of adventure and danger!
