Grey Knight Brotherhood Creation Table

Since creating a Grey Knight Successor that functions similarly to the Grey Knights Chapter would force a multitude of lore conflicts, these creation tables are a way to be creative within the Chapter itself. For this reason these tables are used to create a 9th Brotherhood to the Chapter. For those unfamiliar to Grey Knights this would be similar to adding an additional company to a Space Marine Chapter. Finally, these tables will also focus on the number of units in the Brotherhood, because many of the lore aspects are difficult to introduce without noticeable conflict. As per my 'creature feature' creation tables, these number tables are big on "stats driving the lore."

This is currently a difficult work in progress.

Brotherhood Origin/Secrecy

Brotherhood Origin (d10)
1-6	The Brotherhood was created from a 9th chosen Astartes by Malchador himself at the time of the Grey Knight's inception.
7-10	The Brotherhood was formed some time after the Grey Knight's inception as growing needs for it were confirmed.

How secretive are they? (d6)
1-4	They are known to the Chapter as well as the Ordo Malleus. They are as secret as other Brotherhoods, and may often be used by the Inquisition.
5-6	They are known only to the Chapter itself, though possibly ostracized by the rest of the Chapter. They rarely join the Inquisition and if so remain quiet about their origins.
