LFG

It is the 42nd Millennium.

The galaxy has been split in twain by the machinations of Abbadon the Despoiler, worlds across the galaxy that were once considered free from the taint of Chaos manifest cults dedicated to the ruinous powers in ever-growing numbers. The forces of the Inquisition hunt heretics through the streets of worlds ever-closer to the throneworld, but even in these times they are not free from the schemes of their peers, clashing with one another as the citizens of the Imperium are left to fend for themselves against the debauched madmen of thirsting gods.

And so it is on the world of Perttronia XIII that the people are protected not by an Inquisitor, or by the hand of the Adeptus Arbites, but by a former Astra Militarum soldier. Banding together the people of Heladon Hive for over a generation under the Heladon Hellfighters, they function as both gang and military force, fending off the Obsidian Blade cult and standing to defend the innocent people of Perttronia, all while knowing little of the true nature of these malevolent forces, only that they need be slain in the name of His Holy Throne.

They fight alone; the plutocracy of autocrats that rule the planet have turned a blind eye to the cult out of self-interest, or mere apathy, offering no attempt to crush them with their Enforcers. The Planetary Defense Force remains incompetent, either infiltrated or bled of its power by the autocrats who command them. Any who wish to fight have since fled to the ranks of the Hellfighters. The Arbites, who may have been their only ally, see them only as another gang to be crushed beneath the boot of the Lex without the legitimacy of the PDF to support them.

And thus it is left to the people to fend for themselves, yet they can only see these cults in the light they present themselves; the ever-present gangs that stretch the whole of the planet, fighting for control outside the Hive Towers of the Plutocracy. Still, they fight. Citizens arrive every day at the training camp of General Voss to defend their homes, their neighbors, and themselves from the corrupting forces of the planetary Scum.

It is on this night however that the Hellfighters shall uncover a potential game-changer in the conflict. A man in a black coat, surrounded by the scum of the Obsidian Blade and the corpses of his former comrades who claims to be able to bring the Emperor's Light to this devious organization.

It is the beginning of the 3rd Millenium, and I, Caesar_Wolfman, am taking on the role of storyteller and game master of the Wrath & Glory system in the Warhammer 40k setting.

This shall be a game taking place in the 42nd Millennium, after the events of the Cicatrix Maledictum and in-line with "current lore" as far as anything is considered. You will all be playing members of the Heladon Hellfighters with backgrounds as varied as you desire. Ex-Guardsmen, Scum, disgraced Arbites or anything in between.
