So just to start this is an thread for Rogue Trader RP that I will be running. I am still working on the full story but bare bones are You all are members of the Trader Xander's Crew. Open for Characters are all types of Imperium of Man characters. Limit to only one Space marine or power type. You guys can be of any background and equipment level within reason. Your mission should you all accept are to recover artifacts of humanity from a lost colony out past the Light of the Emperor past the Southern border of the galaxy. Edit: Character List Landon - Space Marine Raven Guard - Uriel Tyesha - Ex-psyker Spyer - Kieivh Marcus - Wastes Mutant - Tuska Theta-Xi - Skitarii - Maleth Abel - Ex-Guard Sniper - Matt23 Amadeus Veldt - Noble Big Game Hunter - Gorewrencha Lomax - Magos Errant - High Adept Zeth
Already have three ideas for a character. 1. Ogryn bonehead given average human intelligence through the use of bionics 2. Sanctioned Ork pirate nob because orkz is da best 3. Half drunk Vostroyan sharpshooter Just need fo figure out which one.
Gonna go with whatever Specialist will be missing. Medic, Scientist, certain fighter type (i.e. heavy weapons, brawler, etc.), or any of that sort. Probably if allowed will run as all-round scientist. You know, understanding of physics, engineering, medicine, etc. But overall then very flawed in combat situations and probably personality (and no, not just plain out OCD )
Yeah sign me up for this ! All of my yes ! Tuska stole the sanctioned pirate "slot" . Hmm i guess i'll probably be the astro-path or a primaris pysker
Yeah that's the one I'm doing since I really don't get a lot of opportunities to rp as an ork so how does Urkrag Umietalka sound for a name?
Umiespeaka sounds a bit orkier tbh but otherwise it sounds good. which is better a primaris pysker or a astropath ? Would a rouge trader even have a primaris pysker ?
I wonder why there can never be a full human Rogue Trader crew, lol. I mean there are soooo many good other "I don't give a crap except beating some people up" characters in wh40k. Like the gang in 'Warriors of Ultramar'. Not criticizing or anything, just seems to happen every time there is a Rogue Trader RP at least one guy goes with an Ork
Its because how many RPs are there that have orks in them ? That are playable ? Elite time force and what else ? All other ork rps get killed off by their creators or fail early. So people play orks when tjey get the chance also they get to play a cockney space pirate football/fùtball/soccer hooligan which does spund like fun but yeah it would be nice to find a all human rogue trader crew
Yeah that does sound orkier and I think a rogue trader could have both but if you want to get into details a primaris is more powerful but an astropath is nessesary for space travel in the imperium. I could always go with my ogryn bone 'ead or half drunk Vostroyan idea if we want to stick with being human. But if I had a choice in the matter orks all the way. Now where did I put that mad dok character sheet?
