== Origins of the Legio == ===Before the Fall=== {| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center" ! colspan="2" |Legio Homeworld (1d100) |- |1-10 |Armory World - Amongst the Forge Worlds of the Adeptus Mechanicus, a rare few gain renown as masters of the forge. Whether they produce Land Raiders or bolters, these Armory worlds are renowned for the quality and quantity of their production. The establishment of a Titan Legio is a moment of great pride - and an even greater shame in the eyes of the loyalist Tech-Priests should they fall. |- | 11-20 | Forge Altar - Even amongst the ranks of the Forge Worlds, this world once stood out for its devotion to the Omnissiah. The esoteric symbols of the Cult Mechanicus once infused all its creations, from the lowliest powercell to the mightiest Titan. The tech-priests blessed to service these awe-inspiring creations are all the more attentive to their devices, even after they were tainted. |- | 21-30 | War World - The 41st Millennium is a time of war, and not even Forge Worlds are free from it. Despite formidable defenses and nigh-unlimited resources, this forge is embroiled in a war for its very survival. Yet even so, the demands from those above must be met - be it the Imperium once or now thirsting gods. A Titan Legio from a War World is made up of battle-tested Titans, something valuable to their new Traitor allies. |- | 31-40 | Manufactorum - The millions of worlds of the Imperium rely upon the Adeptus Mechanicus, and this Forge World was one of the most important. A tremendous variety and quantity of the technologies that are used elsewhere to hold the Imperium together are produced on this world, but such prodigious production means that the loss of their production capacity to heresy is a dire blow to the Imperium. |- | 41-50 |Shipyard - Focused on the complex and secretive art of shipbuilding, it is rare but not unheard of for forges of this sort to turn their arts to the construction of Titans. With their intimate knowledge of void shielding and fusion plants, they can produce Titans with similar enhancements. |- | 51-60 | Silent Forge - Insular and isolated, this forge has little to do with the Imperium as possible. This made their betrayal relatively painless, already used to being self-reliant. |- | 61-70 |Ghost Forge - A terrific cataclysm has befallen this forge. Whether by accident or design, its manufactories have fallen silent, powerplants glow no more, and its people have turned from the Omnissiah. The Titan Legion is now no different, believing the Omnisiah to be an aspect of Chaos. |- | 71-80 | Primeval Forge - Without the resources of the Primeval Forges, the Adeptus Mechanicus would be entirely unable to function. Not simply mining worlds of the Imperium, Primeval Forges are responsible for the extraction and processing of rare elements and trans-phasic substances required in the production of some of the most ancient weapons in the galaxy. The loss of one of these worlds to Chaos is a travesty indeed. |- | 81-90 | Datahive - Extremely rare and nigh-legendary, a datahive is a Forge World devoted entirely to the collection and analyzation of data. On those rare occasions when a Titan Legio is established upon a datahive, they are invariably equipped with immense and comprehensive databases on the foes of mankind from those long-dead tomes. With their change in allegiance, this database is turned against the Imperium. |- | 91-99 | Arsenal World - The wars of both the Imperium and the Traitors require vasts amounts of materiel, and it is the Arsenal Worlds which produce them. Other forges of this type are key and critical parts of the Munitorum's vast logistics chain, supplying everything from engine grease to bolter shells to Vortex torpedoes. With such massive foundries at their command, the Titan Legio is never at a loss for fresh ammunition. |- | 100 | Antiquary World - The Adeptus Mechanicus is a millenia-old empire, spanning hundreds of thousands of worlds throughout the galaxy, and privy to uncounted secrets of the distant past. Some worlds ruled by the Mechanicus are repositories of that past, charged with safekeeping of the most ancient and mysterious relics of the Dark Age of Technology. Perhaps these dark secrets are what turned the Forge and its Legion against the Emperor... |- |} {| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center" ! colspan="2" |Legio Age (1d100) |- | 1-5 Pre-M30 | [[Age of Strife]] - Deep within the abyss of time, this Legio was founded by the proto-Mechanicum to defend its far-flung colonies. As Imperial compliance was met, the Forge World and its Legion(s) joined the Imperium as the successor to the old human government which collapsed after the Iron Rebellion and the beginning of the Age of Strife. |- | 6-15 M30-004.M31 | The [[Great Crusade]] - In the wake of the signing of the Treaty of Olympus, the Legios of Mars are unleashed at the Emperor's command. This Legio was created at the behest of the Emperor, in order to meet the needs of the Great Crusade. |- | 16-20 005.M31-014.M31 | The [[Horus Heresy]] - The Horus Heresy devastates the Mechanicum, as Forge Worlds throughout the galaxy are forced to choose a side. Your Legio was born in that chaotic time, a Loyalist offshoot of some long-dead heresy. |- | 21-25 Early M31-Mid M34 | [[Forging | The Forging]] - Following the death of Horus, long centuries pass as the Imperium rebuilds itself. This Legio was established in order to aid the reconquest of the galaxy, or in the aftermath of the catastrophic [[War of the Beast]]. |- | 26-35 Mid M34-Early M36 |The [[Nova Terra Interregnum]] - The dark age of the Nova Terra Interregnum saw the Cult Mechanicus cleft in twain as the Moirae Schism rocked its own stability even as the Ur-Council declared independence from the [[High Lords of Terra]]. |- | 36-45 Mid to Late M36 | [[Age of Apostasy | The Sanction of Vandire]] - The end of the Nova Terra Interregnum failed to bring the hopeful peace as the Moirae Schism continued. Declaring its independence from the corrupt and mad rule of Goge Vandire, the Adeptus Mechanicus rearmed its defenses to fight for Mankinds freedom against the insane tyrant. |- | 46-55 End of M36-M37 | [[Age of Redemption]] - Following Vandire's defeat and the Thorian Reformation finally fixing the clusterfuck that started with Nova Terra Interregnum, the Moirae Schism was also peacefully ended as the schismatics rejoined the mainstream cult, probably after fighting together to end the reign of terror. As the Imperium prospered, so too did the Adeptus Mechanicus. |- | 56-65 M38 | [[Waning | Crusades of the Fringe]] - Long and bloody, the crusades of the fringe consume billions of lives and trillions of tonnes of materiel. Founded to sustain a long and difficult crusade, this Legio has fought with honor and won much glory alongside the Imperium's greatest heroes. |- | 66-75 M39-M40 | Tides of the Outer Dark - The rise of powerful new xenos threats in the fringes of the Imperium such as the awakening ancient and mysterious Necrons and the arrival of the innumerable hordes of Tyranids forces the Mechanicus to respond. |- | 76-85 M41 | [[Time of Ending | Hold Back the Apocalypse]] - As the 41st Millenium drew to a close, the might of the Imperium was strained to the breaking point. This Legio was founded to stem the tide. |- | 86-90 999.M41-012.M42 | [[Indomitus Crusade | The Indomitus Crusade]], first phase - As the great scar cut the galaxy in half the Legio was raised on the orders of the Re-Awakened Primarch to stem the flow of blood from a beleaguered Imperium. |- | 91-100 012.M42-Present | [[Age of the Dark Imperium ]] - With a galaxy-wide spike in Psykers and the Imperium in more peril then ever before even after the first phase of the Indomitus Crusade brought borderline heretekal relief across the galaxy your Legio was founded to deal with the new threats that have appeared in the aftermath of the Battle of Raukos (the final battle of the first phase of the Indomitus Crusade) and definitely not in preparation for a potential Mechanicus civil war. |} ===After the Fall=== {| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center" ! colspan="2" |Fall & Corruption (1d100) |- | 1-10 |The [[Horus Heresy]] - The Titan Legion sided with the Warmaster during the great Schism of Mars, making them among the most ancient of those devoted to Chaos. The data-tracts of their fell machines remember striding into battle alongside the traitor Primarchs. (Reroll if Legio Age is anytime after the Heresy. Otherwise choose "Destroyed" for the fate of the Legion's homeworld, due to The Scouring.) |- | 11 - 20 | Good Intentions - The Titan Legion's fall was an exemplar of the old saying of "the road to Hell is paved with good intentions". Whether the Legio were [[Tzeentch|trying to change the Imperium for the better behind the scenes]], [[Khorne|seeking to purge a particular foe of man with overwhelming zeal]], [[Nurgle|attempting to preserve the stability of the Emperor's domain by any means necessary]], [[Slaanesh|fighting for the sake of allowing happiness to come to all of man]], or something of the sort, the Chaos Gods used that desire and twisted it into a gnawing taint which eventually drove them to turn their guns against those they once protected. They may have instead rebelled against the Imperium outright in the name of a good cause, only for that cause to either be capitalized on by the Gods or for them to be driven to corruption in order to survive the harsh rebuke. |- | 21-30 | Tainted by the [[Great Rift|Rift]] - In the wake of the opening of the Cicatrix Maeldictum, the Titan Legion's home was either caught within or was too close. The Warp-taint emanating from the tear in the Galaxy changed and twisted the Legio, its members going insane and proclaiming a new allegiance to dark powers. (Reroll if Legio Age is after 999.M41) |- | 31-40 | Charismatic Traitor - An influential Princeps within the Titan Legion was the first to betray the Emperor, and proceeded to use said influence to slowly but surely turn others to service of the Chaos Gods. |- | 41-50 | Betrayed - The Titan Legion was excommunicated by the Imperium for no good reason, be it they crossed an [[Inquisition|Inquisitor]], someone needed a scapegoat for a recent disastrous campaign, or similar. Out of spite and/or in order to survive, the Legion threw in their lot with the Ruinous Powers. |- | 51-60 | Lost in the Warp - The Legio was tainted during a Warp jump gone wrong, be it that they were off course for so long that they went insane, or the Gellar Field failed and the Titan Legion was hijacked by Daemons. Whatever the case, they returned as servants of the Archenemy. |- | 61-70 | Converted - Another Chaos force, perhaps other agents of the Dark Mechanicum or another group of servants of the Ruinous Powers, brought the Titan Legion to their knees, yet spared them so as to [[Word Bearers|enlighten them of their 'truth']] and perhaps gain new allies. Whether they actually believed their words or changed sides to save themselves mattered not, for they joined willingly. |- | 71-80 | Daemonic Incursion - The Titan Legion was unfortunately caught in the midst of Neverborn tearing their way into realspace. Their Titans are now inhabited by Daemons which have long broken any surviving Princeps into serving their own masters. |- | 81-90 | Rebellion - The Titan Legion rebelled against the Imperium for reasons that did not pertain to the Ruinous Powers, yet they would end up having to turn to them in order to stand a chance against the overwhelming might of the Emperor's followers. |- | 91-99 | Hereteks - Unsanctioned innovation and experimentation led the Titan Legion to ruinous powers, either before or after the Cult Mechanicus cast them out. Their Titans are rife with bizarre technologies not seen within the Imperium, many of which are tainted by the Warp itself. |- |100 | [[What|From the Eye]] - This ancient Legio was lost to the Eye of Terror when it formed at the end of the [[Age of Strife]]. Whenever it reemerged does not matter, for the Legion and its homeworld have long been tainted for millenia. (Reroll if Legio Age is anything but pre-M30. Otherwise, select Hellforge from the Fate of Legion Homeworld table and ignore your originally selected Legio Homeworld.) |} {| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center" ! colspan="2" |Fate of Legio Homeworld (1d5) |- |1-3 | Destroyed - whether because their homeworld joined them in Chaos worship or just by association, [[Exterminatus]] has been conducted by the Imperium for the Legio's treachery. (Roll on New Homeworld table below.) |- |4 | Loyal - unlike the Legio, their Forge of origin has not been found wanting, or has been retaken by the Imperium. They seek vengeance upon the traitors for being a black mark upon their name. (Roll on New Homeworld table below.) |- |5 | Hellforge - The Legio's home Forge was also corrupted by Chaos and joined the God-Machines in their secession from the Imperium. They survived the Emperor's ensuing wrath and are now a Hellforge, producing damned technology and Daemon Engines alongside supporting their Legio. (Optionally can be a [[Daemon World]] as well, depending on how you want to flesh it out.) |} {| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center" ! colspan="2" |New Homeworld (1d100) |- |1-10 |Voidborne - No longer having anywhere to call home, the traitor Legio wanders through the Galaxy. While not able to support as many of their numbers due to this, it has been a boon in allowing them to spread the Gods' reach wherever they wish. (Legio Strength must be lower than Full Strength.) |- |11-20 |Conquered World - After the loss of their Homeworld, your Legion forcefully took another to serve as its new base of operations. [[Grimdark|The populace is now enslaved to your will, forced to maintain the God-Machines in the name of Chaos]]. |- |21-40 |Daemon World - Forced to flee into one of the Galaxy's many Warp Storms, the Legio is now based on a world that belongs thoroughly to the Chaos Gods and their daemonic spawn. |- |41-50 |Chaos Knight World - A house of Chaos Knights has agreed to host the Legion in return for their assistance in the House's campaigns. (You automatically select a Chaos Knight house as your Main Ally.) |- |51-60 |Asteroid Cluster - The Legion hides from the Imperium's watchful gaze in an asteroid field, mining the metal-rich rocks for resources to maintain their God-Machines with. |- |61-90 |Hellforge - A pre-existing Hellforge of the Dark Mechanicum welcomed your Legio with open arms, granting them sanctuary and means of sustaining themselves in exchange for a cut of their spoils. |- |91-99 |Chaos Space Marine world - A Warband of Chaos Space Marines has allowed the Legion to be based off (one of) their world in exchange for their servitude. (You must have some Chaos Warband or Chaos Lord as you Main Ally.) |- |100 |Large Domain - the Titan Legion has carved out a large region of space for themselves with their diabolical might, ruling it with literal iron fists. Multiple star systems are controlled by them and their allies, and has proven a tough nut for the Imperium to crack. |}
