==Religious Influence== {| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center" ! colspan="2" |Religious Influence (d100) |- ! 01-75 | '''The Imperial Cult:''' The planet is governed by the single official faith, with the Emperor worshipped and all dissenters persecuted as heretics. Faith permeates every level of governance, and even minor deviations are seen as grave offences. |- ! 76-78 | '''Local Cults:''' Various local cults and sects have sprung up, each with their own interpretations of worship, sometimes at odds with the teachings of the Ecclesiarchy. Some are harmless deviations, while others may teeter on heresy. Better hope a death cult isn't the big fad when you're visiting. |- ! 79-81 | '''Religious Purging:''' The planet is in the grip of an ongoing religious purge, with both suspected heretics and faithful rivals of the ruling order persecuted. Mass trials, public confessions, and executions are a feature of daily life. |- ! 82-84 | '''Religious Tolerance:''' While the Emperor is the primary focus of worship, the planet allows the practice of various methods and beliefs of worship of Him, though always under oversight and scrutiny. This rare diversity leads to tensions between the planets rulers and the Ecclesiarchy, who see such openness as dangerous. |- ! 85-87 | '''Charismatic Preacher:''' A charismatic religious leader has emerged, uniting the people in fervent worship, often inspiring both devotion and fanaticism. Their presence has reshaped the planet as fanatics pour into crusades or uprisings at their word. May show absolute belief in the Emperor, hold strange interpretations of the faith, be outright heretical, or be touting themselves as a god. Whichever it is, the population are behind them. |- ! 88-90 | '''The Cult of the Machine:''' The Adeptus Mechanicus or similar groups hold great influence, with the worship of the Omnissiah or the reverence of technology being a central aspect of society. Mechanised rituals dominate, and planetary culture reflects their strange mix of superstition and logic. |- ! 91-93 | '''Faith Through Labour:''' The population worships the Emperor by dedicating their lives to work. Religious belief centres on the divine nature of toil, with hymns, prayers, and rituals integrated into factory schedules. Productivity is both faith and salvation. |- ! 94-96 | '''Faith in Saints:''' The population worships a local saint who is said to have performed miraculous deeds on the planet, may be alive or dead. Belief in the God Emperor is still likely the most common, although worship of the Saint is widespread. The saint’s relics, purported tomb, and statues dominate religious life, often to the frustration of the wider Ecclesiarchy. |- ! 97-99 | '''Martyrdom Cult:''' The populace venerates martyrdom as the highest expression of faith, glorifying self-sacrifice for the Emperor. This has led to suicidal work ethics, mass volunteering for the most dangerous work, and dangerous negligence of survival in the name of honouring Him. |- ! 100 | '''Heretical Movement:''' A growing or entirely established heretical movement seeks to undermine the local religious order, with dangerous ideals that could lead the planet to fall into chaos or rebellion. Heresy spreads in the dark underhives, in corrupted local preacher halls, or even within noble houses. |- ! 100? | '''Gork ‘an Mork:''' Gork. Also, Mork. |} <br>
