Your only path forward is through the depths of corruption, betrayal, and violence. ______________________________________________________________ Need a job?

Whether you are: A desperate Imperial noble clinging to lost authority, A xenos mercenary seeking fortune in a human-dominated void, A sanctioned mutant or psyker balancing power and peril, Or something even stranger... There is a place for you at this table, though survival is not guaranteed. ______________________________________________________________ What to Expect This is a narrative-driven, choice-heavy campaign steeped in the brutality, intrigue, and horror of the 41st millennium. You will: Navigate the criminal underworld of Chancer’s Vale, where every deal has a cost. Uncover forbidden secrets and decide what is worth keeping... and what is better left buried. Forge uneasy alliances or leave a trail of bodies in your wake. Face the void itself, from pirate strongholds to the horrors that lurk in forgotten places. There is no safety here. The Imperium is not coming to save you. The only question is whether you will rise, burn out, or be forgotten. ______________________________________________________________ Game Details Hosted on Foundry VTT for an immersive experience.

Character creation

Creating your character

Character 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!
