Really, by the time you get to around 40 corruption you're switching to a Black Crusade game and accumulating infamy.

Since it looks like it will be Tech Priest, we should totally be a Cyber Mastiff handler for our first rank, from Book of Judgement.

Added that and a few others to the Tech Priest options. Another one at level 1 is from Lathe Worlds - Factor of the Lathes, which is more of a diplomatic Tech-Priest. We are currently 11:9 in favor of Tech Priest.

Copyist NO Tainted Blood Disciples of Thule Tech-Use Common Lore (Tech) Trade (Technomat) Let's go with a standardish techpriest for now. There will be plenty of opportunity to gain glances at forbidden techthingies in exchange for corruption and insanity points. Why waste them now with so little to gain in return? Scarlet Ember

If you wouldn't mind throwing out some clarifying poo poo as we go along as to what these things are for the lurkers, that would be great, but obviously not expected.

Oh, this will be fun. Looks like we're already getting our Radical v Puritan factions. Have some Eisenhorn: "We all become radicals eventually as we appreciate that we must know our enemy in order to defeat him. The real dangers come from extreme puritans. Puritanism is fuelled by ignorance, and ignorance is the greatest peril of all. That's not to suggest the path of the radical is easy. Eventually even the most careful and responsible radical will be overwhelmed by the warp. The real judge of character is what good a man can do for the Imperium before he is drawn too far.""

As an aside, Warp Touched gives you From Beyond, which gives you immunity to insanity. So all you need to worry about is corruption On the flip side, someone want to link me to Scarlet Ember/what book its from? It looks like a 300XP background or talent, but I don't know anything else about it. Loel fucked around with this message at 16:38 on Aug 20, 2014 |

Obscil posted:This sounds good, but switch Technomat to another trade. I'm sorry I don't have any ideas of a good trade, I haven't ever played this game before. Options that might fit our character include Armourer: Used to create and maintain armour and weapons. Copyist: Used to swiftly copy text, illuminate manuscripts and forge written material. Embalmer: Used to prepare and preserve corpses. Miner: Used to extract minerals, maintain mines and identify common hazards. Prospector: Used to find and identify valuable materials. Scrimshawer: Used to inscribe patterns, text and imagery onto materials. Smith: Used to forge metals into shape. Technomat: Used to maintain mechanical and tech items, often without any understanding of a machine’s true purpose. Wright: Used to assess, design and construct buildings, vehicles and the like. and a basic tech priest gets a choice of Scrimshawer and Copyist.
