About the adventure
Forge World Orgathaius, an ancient manufactorum planet with a long history going all the way back to the Horus Heresy of supplying materials for constructing heavy weapons such as autocannons and parts for armoured personnel carriers. Rumours spread of a growing civil war on Orgathaius and so the imperium has decided to involve one of its many arms in investigating the situation and preventing it from occurring if the threat is real, however due to rising conflicts up and down the Macharian Sector resources have become limited so whoever takes up the job will have to make do with whatever they can find. You and several others find yourselves on the prison world of Chadaian, either incarcerated within its walls or simply a guest of the warden you receive a message that an individual has requested your services and curious or simply happy to get out of a cell you head towards the warden's office to hear them out. This campaign is lore accurate and features many different aspects of the 40K universe all of which have been heavily researched and will seek to deliver an enjoyable experience, players will work together uncovering the mysteries on Orgathaius before a great tragedy plunges the planet and nearby systems into darkness.

About me
Experienced DM who has too much writing and not enough players as I tend to create a lot of lore which can be adapted for any player to fit ideas they may have. I can run a wide range of games and campaigns and discuss with players about what they would like to do and try to match both my style and what they enjoy. I am an Anti AI GM as the devastation to the industry by job replacement and the ethical problems with it are concerns.

Creating your character
players will create a character using standard creation methods outlined in the core rulebook, ideally players will have a backstory as to how their character ended up on the prison planet where they will start the campaign. Use of AI art is expressly prohibited in this campaign although artwork for characters can be provided upon request and the use of programs to make characters such as hero forge is also allowed.
