Anyone game for some 40k inquisiting? I have an adventure mostly planned out and just about ready to go. The setting will be in the Periphery/Spinward Front of the Calixis Sector.
Your character is a passenger on the Kestrel of Luggnum, an Imperial troop transport en route to the Feudal Planet Sisk. Your character can be a Guards(wo)man, Inquisitorial Warparty-member or anything else you can imagine if you want to get creative. The ship suffers critical damage from an unknown source and everyone is forced to evacuate to the life pods. The characters all end up in the same life pod as it is launched toward Sisk and the unknown.
If you want to know more about this area of space, you can find out more here, but if you don't want to read all that, I'll give you a summary.
Feel free to ask any questions, comments, so on, so forth.

The Periphery is a sub-sector of the Calixis Sector in Segmentum Obscurus that has largely been consumed in warfare between the Secessionist forces of Duke Severus XIII, WAAAGH! Grimtoof and the Imperium. Dark Eldar of the Children of Thorns Kabal raid all sides and chaos cults rising from the madness fight for themselves, but are secondary threats to the three primary combatants. Duke Severus XIII fights to establish his own personal empire: the Severan Dominate, having falsely convinced his people that he can bring forth utopia. Warboss Ghenghiz Grimtoof Git-slava has set his eyes upon the bounteous loot and slaves the subsector holds, in addition to the fight it provides. The Imperium fights to retain and retake what it once rightfully held.
Sisk is a feudal world ruled by a land-owning noble caste with a technology level barely beyond gunpowder. With the fall of nearby Avitohol to the Orks and the subsequent failure to retake the system, the Imperium is reinforcing planets bordering Avitohol in preparation for a potential attack. The Imperial presence in the system is largely centered in several orbital void docks, including the Governor Gavvit's Oribital Palace. The planet's surface is hospitable, but unpleasant. Moors, swamps and forests dominate the landscape. Sisk is also known for an uncharacteristically high mutant population. The human population live in walled cities and fortified towns to protect themselves from roving bands of mutant cannibals. Sisk mutants are identifiable by the extra joints they possess in their arms and legs, giving them a distinct and disturbing gait.
