Nagasena came upon a civilian woman named Escarter, who had witnessed the slaughter of a squad of Black Sentinels by the renegade Space Marine Legionary. Refusing to give up, Nagasena pursued Severian relentlessly throughout the Petitioner's City, located on the outskirts of the massive complex of the Imperial Palace. ![]() Only Severian managed to survive the relentless pursuit of the hunt team led by the Seer Hunter named Yasu Nagasena who worked for the Sisters of Silence in seeking out psykers for their Black Ships. After breaking free and rescuing the Astropath Kai Zulane from The Vault and escaping from the prison complex, the Outcast Dead proceeded to fight their way across Terra in an attempt to escape back to their respective Legions. The Legio Custodes imprisoned these Astartes within Khangba Marwu, a vast, underground Imperial prison complex deep beneath the Himalayan Mountains also known as 'The Vault'. When news of the Warmaster Horus' betrayal of the Emperor of Mankind reached Terra on the frigate Eisenstein, the loyalty of all members of those Legions that had sided with Horus was considered suspect by the warriors of the Legio Custodes. He was the last surviving member of the Outcast Dead, a small group of Renegade Space Marines who belonged to the Traitor Legions and had been part of an Astartes Honour Guard known as the Crusader Host based on Terra in the days just before the start of the Heresy. The name "Rosette" harkens back to the bygone era of the 31st Millennium during the opening days of the Horus Heresy and the hunt for Battle-Brother Severian (known as "The Wolf"), formerly of the Luna Wolves Legion. The rosette is most commonly used when in the company of fellow members of the Inquisition or when an Inquisitor wishes to strike fear and awe into the common man. The rosette, however, is used very sparingly, as most Inquisitors prefer to keep themselves and their Acolytes inconspicuous. ![]() The rosette signifies that an individual is in the employ of the Inquisition and is enough to ensure the fearful cooperation of most adepts and citizens who know of the Inquisition’s purpose. The rosette can be worn by those in an Inquisitor's employ and can also be displayed on vehicles or by the armed forces being used by the Inquisitor. This powerful symbol of the Inquisition is worn on an Inquisitor's clothing or wargear. Rosettes are often inscribed with verification technology and coded encryption in order to communicate the bearer's authority to any cogitator, confirming the bearer's clearance as well as preventing forgeries. The Inquisitorial Seal is, in a sense, an Inquisitor's most important item of equipment, and he will never willingly relinquish it. This powerful symbol is recognised throughout Imperial society, for those who bear it wield ultimate authority, and they do so in the name of the Emperor. This is a small amulet or icon in the shape of a stylised column. Upon their ascension to their rank, every Inquisitor is presented with an Inquisitorial Rosette. Yet with this little object I can sign the death warrant of an entire world and consign a billion souls to Oblivion."Īn Inquisitorial Rosette is a symbolic icon of the members of the Inquisition, akin to countless others worn by the servants of the Imperium, but in reality, it is so much more. It is a modest thing, relatively plain, adorned with a single motif and a simple motto. It is a small, unassuming object contained in a neat box of Pluvian obsidian. ![]() ![]() In the Fiction tab are the official short stories, audio dramas, novellas and novels that contain characters from my Rogue Trader army.īelow is a list of the characters and what spurred the decision to add them." I carry with me an Inquisitorial Seal. In the OpFor tab are the opposition forces that I have available. In the Squads tab is how the army deploys. In the Fluff tab you'll find my head-canon, including the levels of command within the motley army and their ships. I've also added some other characters where I saw an excuse to. I may never get a chance to field the entire army in a game.Īt its core is the Blackstone Fortress characters, including those added through White Dwarf, and the Kill Team: Rogue Trader characters as well as Necromunda Dramatis Personae. Although when all combined I could field enough units for a battle size beyond Onslaught, my gaming group and I will start by mainly playing Combat Patrol sized games. This is a descriptive and visual presentation of my personal Rogue Trader army. Homebrew - Narrative Driven - Matched Play
