    Chapter 1: A Change in the Warp​


    The warp, a place born of the thoughts and dreams of every mortal, everchanging and beyond comprehension, in such a place, anything can happen. In the roiling waves of chaos and madness, something began to form, and the warp changed around it. It was not unusual for life to be born in the warp, far from it actually, but whatever this was, it was not the normal life born in this realm, for whatever form of normal applied to such a place. This change however was not unheard of, it had happened at least four times before.

    This was the birth of a Chaos God.

    As the warp bent and shifted around this entity, creating a manifestation of its power, its claim called out, it was the God of ….

    [ ] Humanity: Humans have cut a place for themselves into existence, becoming one of the most dominant races in the known universe. Clawing themselves up from promised oblivion. They have made themselves a dominant force in the subconscious of all races, and through these actions, you are born. You hear the voices of what is yours, calling out into the void for something to save them. Whether you answer these calls is up to you.​
    Domains​
    • Obsession
    • Devotion
    • Hatred
    • Will
    ​
    ​
    [ ] Machines: The devotion born of the Adeptus Mechanicus bore a fruit they never knew they planted, and the warp shaped around it, giving form to something untouched by flawed flesh. Not breathing, but instead gears turning, bringing to life you. You, who are the truest form of the perfection of machines, no, of all things. Through you, the universe will be made perfect. How you do so is up to you.​
    Domains​
    • Perfection
    • Advancement
    • Apathy
    • Machines
    ​
    ​
    [ ] Hunger: As a feral race pushes through the galaxy, consuming all things in a feral race, their hunger echoes into the warp, ripping apart chaos into a new form. A shifting, writhing desire to consume all things, collecting everything into one, a desire to be one with all. This was you, you were to be the consumer of all things, as was your purpose, how you will do this is your choice​
    Domains​
    • Hunger
    • Greed
    • Desire
    • Loyalty
    ​
    ​
    [ ] Something New: The bending and twisting of the warp change and twist, and all that could be was for but a brief moment. Something truly became born from nothing, the very embodiment of the new and the chaotic, something that never was, suddenly being real. Without fanfare, you now were, and what you would do with this was up to you, as you had to build your world yourself​
    (Note: If you take this option, you start with nothing, and will build up your power yourself​
    Domains​
    • Evolution
    • Mutation
    • Chaos
    • Creation
    ​
    ​
    [ ] Write in: If you feel you have an idea for a chaos god yourself, feel free to pitch it, and if enough people join you, your idea may become our new reality​
    Domains​
    • You pitch into this


    Coming into form, you stare out into the endless storm of the warp, watching as everything forms around you. You feel a word coming to your mind, one far greater in many ways than any before. This must be your name you decide, as you ready, and scream it into the void


    [ ] Your Name

    [ ] What do you look like


    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    The call rolls through the warp, shaking up the very shape of the storms around it. The words passed by some powerful ears, giving an answer to a question left unasked. Four sets of ears twinged at hearing this new name dance across their hearing. A smile danced across a creature of many plans as another piece fell onto the board. A warrior bathed in unending blood growled as a new challenger came to claim a piece of this world. A creator of rot and disgust gurgled in delight, hoping to share its disease with this new friend. And a being of pure pleasure smiled with glee, at a new toy to play with. Though they heard, they knew not the power it may soon find, which you may soon find.

    —-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    So this is a fun, if weird idea, a god quest set in one of the most grimdark series in the world. So enjoy finding your place, or forcefully making it. You will get to be something chaotic, something beyond normal. I hope you enjoy a taste of the madness

    As your name reverberates through the endless shifting form of the warp, your mind takes hold of what brought you into the world. The prayers of those lost in the warp, and those desperate enough to call out for some unnamed god in this rotten world, in such a bad place that something answering was no worse than their current fate. But instead of screams of hate or
    desires to die, these voices asked for sanctuary from this universe that refused to care for them, and screamed for revenge against the reality that thrust their lives down into such darkness, and you feel quite inclined to answer.

    Taking a deep breath, though you are unsure if you need it, you look out upon your domain, your piece of the warp. If you are to truly answer your purpose, this place would not do in its current state. The warp was unkind to mortals, turned their forms inside out, and twisted them beyond recognition. Before the sanctuary of dreams could come to be, first you would have to shape it to a form those mortals could enjoy.

    The realm of Unwaking, where the mortal unconscious enters the warp, and yet access to this place was nigh impossible, at least on purpose. This was where you came to be, as much a part of it as it is a part of you. This place exists almost on the flipside of the warp, in some odd 4th dimensional way, being inaccessible by any normal means, which would allow you far more safety from the machination of others

    A World Between: The place you lie in is far beyond the eyes of other, suspicion goes up at 0.5 times rate

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    You have 5 action dice, which are your currency to do divine actions, each represents an individual d6, which will be rolled, and any number above 3 will be classified as a success, dice that land on 6 are irrevocable and explode, allowing more dice to be rolled. Landing on a 1 counts as a Failure, and revokes one success. Exploding dice cannot remove a success if they land on a 1, they are simply revoked.

    This is our tutorial chapter, to allow me to explain the mechanics of the game.

    When control is handed over to you, the player, you will be able to choose to do any action as long as it falls under your domain. Some actions will be harder, as decided by me, the QM.

    Sometimes, you will receive prayers, if you follow these prayers, you can gain Faith. Faith points are what will allow you to gain new domains, upgrade your current domains or purchase special traits based on your domain. Each domain provides extra dice equivalent to its current level if it is applicable to that action.

    The suspicion rank is a rank calculating how much attention your action garner, you do not want this to go too high too early, as it can grant unwanted eyes.

    Sorry if this chapter is too small, chapters will be longer after we finish the tutorial
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    You have 5 dice to spend​
    [ ] Create your world: You wish to grant eternal sleep, but to do so, you must craft your world to your liking. (Variable Success)

    [ ] Write in: Choose any action you think applies in your domain.
