Grey Knight Brotherhood Creation Table
Since creating a Grey Knight Successor that functions similarly to the Grey Knights Chapter itself would force a multitude of lore conflicts, these creation tables are a way to be creative with the Grey Knights within the Chapter itself. For this reason these tables represent 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 numbers of the Brotherhood, because much of the lore aspects are difficult to introduce without noticeable conflict. As per my creature feature creation tables, these tables are big on "numbers 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 only to the Inquisition, those above them, and the Chapter themselves. They are therefore as secret as other Brotherhoods and may be used by the Inquisition. |
| 5-6 | They are known only to the Chapter itself and therefore extremely secretive, although often ostracized by the rest of the Chapter. Because of this, they have no dealings with the Inquisition and act only on the Chapter's accord. |
