Revision as of 21:10, 17 December 2015

This is a set of tables intended to create your very own band, secret society, or cult of heretics to the Imperial Creed. Taken from a similar mold as those from the Deathwatch Rites of Battle and the generators inspired by them, these tables are taken directly from the Dark Heresy Second Edition supplement Enemies Within. Note that a few tables will be expanded slightly to make the resultant cults a thing which all three Ordos could conceivably deal with.

Just like the Imperial Creation Tables, these are instrument for deepening fluff and adding yet more things to the systems and sectors you may create, to give you foes (or alternatively friends) to spice your campaigns. All that's changed is their allegiance. Through 8chan, with zeal, we bring this to you. Welcome to the true faith, brother.
