it does, doesnt catch everyone or even most talents though. many people only show leadership once pressed

I can see that,
its really hard to spot somebody as being skilled at leadership without them being given a position that requires it as giving orders is a very different skill from being able to follow them (at least in terms of outward apparence of one's actions).....
......but that requires trusting somebody with something that is fundamentally important just to test it. (imagine having to test people for good math skills by handing them controls to a nuke buried underneith a inhabited city that goes off if you DON'T have it......pretty stressful that)
although with a good VR setups we can probably do a somewhat decent job at doing a non-damaging test of somebody's' skills....issue tho is it doesn't
do, as durin said, "stress test"....
is it possable to put somebody in a VR setup without them knowing I wonder? cas then you could put the stress on them with little to no risk (unless their a psyker I suppose, might be kinda hard to hide things from them in that case)

Troll Trade Results
You decided to provide the Trolls with level seven Tau technology in exchange for assistance with your mining and providing you with auxiliaries composing of a full. five percent of their population when you fight on Avernus. This deal is considered to be shockingly generous by many in the Imperial Trust, and will colour their views of your for a while but was good enough for you to avoid major diplomatic repercussions.

Looks like this wont bother the Trust in the long term it will just reinforce our previous reputation in deal making for a few decades. probably be fine as long as we dont try anymore diplomatic trades with Avernite people before the next High Council meeting and the Grand Conclave.

Turn One Hundred and Forty
Four Hundred and Fifteen years since the Founding of Avernus
Five year turn
Despite your argument with Tormod the last few years have been decent, with the Avernite military starting to recover and no news of coming attacks. Ridcully's recent findings howver show several massive long term threats, both of which are to large and have to much momentum for any sane group that you know of barring perhaps the Necrons to interfere with. Thankfully the Dragon and the Forces of Chaos are likely to work against each other if anything more then they work against the forces of sanity, though that is small consolation given Ridcully's visions.
The Avernite military is currently deep into its rebuilding, with hundreds of millions of soldiers in various stages of training even as countless more join the training ques. General Khol tells you that losses in the Eternal War have spiked up recently due to the weakened state of your military, with losses exceeding twenty million a year.
Marshal Vang upgrades trait Always on Guard (+2I, +1C) into Paranoid (+4I, +2C, -2D)- Marshal Vang's alertness has crossed the line into paranoia, ensuring she is never caught off-guard but interfering with her social interactions.
Marshal Stumpf upgrades Skilled Swordsman into Expert Swordsman (+1M, +3 C, +30 to melee combat rolls) - Marshal Stumpf is highly trained and experienced in the use of the blade and considered to be an expert.
Admiral Sarnow informs you that there have been a series of raids by Chaotic forces into both the Imperial Trust and Dragon's Nest in recent years. He feels that these were probes to determine how badly damaged you were by fighting the Tyranids, and their easy annihilation should stop the raids for a while and make the local forces of Chaos consider the Imperial Trust a greater threat then they had previously.
Issac strongly requests that the Adeptus Astra Telepathica push forward the Bloom Bees as a matter of priority, telling you that if they could be put into use across the entire Trust it could lead to a massive population boom, and thereafter a major economic boom. This could be the biggest boon that Avernus has produced for the Trust since the Nogs.
Inquisitor Klovis-Ultan tells you that he has started work on what he calls his last great scheme, which should both act as a test for his chosen successor and deliver a major blow to the Alpha Legion rings in the region. He does not go into details about his plan, but does mention that he will be devoting a large portion of the rest of his life towards it and has recruited the aid of several of Avernus' greatest heroes such as Vlad Tepes.

Jane is highly worried about the news of Chaos' Galactic Ritual, and what it would mean for the efforts to keep down rogue Psykers. While her current forces and those of the Lizardmen should be enough to ensure that Rogue Psykers cause little damage as they are, a significant power boost to all Psykers will change that. She is looking into ways to even further boost her Psyker Hunters in preparation for this, a task made more challenging by how much she has already put into them.
Despite another series of brushes with death for Archmagos Biologis Maximal the Adeptus Mechanicus remains intact, for the moment at least. Fabricator-General Scott is worried by the increasing radicalisation of the remaining conservatives, and tells you that a war of annihilation with them will occur within the next half century no matter what she does. While she will win said war not without the conservatives inflicting major damage to several key locations, including the shipyards of Vanaheim which maintain the mighty fleets of the Imperial Trust.
Archmagos Tranth gains trait Clear-sighted (+3L, +3P, +1 to all stats, can think without any cognitive bias)- One of Archmagos Tranth's greatest gifts is his ability to put aside his cognitive biases and see the world as it truly is.
The Battle Psykers of Avernus have almost recovered from their losses against Hive Fleet Grábakr, with the hundreds of thousands of Psykers found each year being able to quickly refill their ranks. Given that Ridcully foresees a quite period for the Imperial Trust coming this would be a good time to set up the infrastructure for the next few centuries, and to continue your research.
High Grandmaster Ridcully gained Artifact: Olhixcocl's Defence (+100 vs Psychic effects, +1 armour, block first hit each round)- The small size of Olhixcocl's Defence belies its ability to halt even the greatest of attacks in its tracks, a abiity that its first wielder used to fight against the larger monsters of Avernus and that Ridcully can use to protect himself against the Greater Deamons of Chaos. For a while.
Currently you are trying to deal with the combination of Syr's death and your argument with Tormod. While he went to far in his accusations what hurts the most is that to a point he was correct. You have been assuming that Avernus will be following blood inheritance, in large part because that was what you grew up with. It might be a good idea to look into what alternatives there are, and choose one.
Tormod upgrades trait Veteran Survivor (+3C, far less likely to die) into Tried and Tested Survivor (+5C, far less likely to die) - Tormod has managed to survive in countless situations that would be expected to kill him thoughout his life, and come out of them all alive, and more often then not intact.

Two Locked Choose One
One Three years
Recruit: Helguard – Your Helguard was nearly wiped out the recent daemonic incursion and in dealing with the following cult uprising, with tens of thousands of regiments being annihilated entirely.

Locked – Twenty-One out of Twenty-Three years completed
Anti-Psyker Training: Militia – You have recently finished preparing a training regime to better prepare your militia to go up against hostile Psykers.

Time: 25 years
Cost: 64,000,000,000 Thrones, 3,200,000,000 Material, 320,000,000 Promethium .

Locked- Ten out of Twenty-Five years completed
Recruit: Helltroopers- Three fifths of your Helltroopers was wiped out fighting the Tyranids of Hive Fleet Grábakr. General Khol strongly advises that you immediately begin to rebuild their numbers.

Locked- One out of Ten years completed
Bolehs Spider Packs: Guilds- The best people to train your first Bolehs Spider Packs for war are undoubtedly the guilds, whose numbers include those whose skills and inclinations are already suited for the task. Due to the small size general eccentricity of the guilds it will take a good bit of time for General Khol to get a full set of Standard Operating Procedures from them, but it should be worth the wait.
Time: 12 years
Cost: 380,000,000 Thrones, 3,800,000 Material, 71,000 Advanced Material, 890 Exotic Material, 10,000 Food.

Time: 24 years (can not begin until tour 4)
Cost: 940,000,000 Thrones, 100,000,000 Material, 700,000 Promethium, 72,000,000 Advanced Material, 870,000 Exotic Material.

Implement (Technology or Warbeast): Planning – A lot of the most important technologies that you have unearthed or that have been shared with you have already been implemented, but there are still many types that remain unused.

Time: 2 years
Cost: 39,000,000 Thrones, 7,800,000 Material, 790,000 Promethium, 85,000 Advanced Material, 95 Exotic Material.

Thunder Warriors – Hive Fleet Grábakr will be reaching the Imperial Trust in five years' time, well before Avernus' forces recover from their recent losses.

Reward: Recruit 5 Regiments of Thunder Warriors
Special-Issue Impalers – Archmagos Tranth has recently finished designing Special-Issue Impalers which can fire specialised ammunition.

Reward: Special-Issue Impalers put into use, +5 to militia rolls, +3 to Light Infantry rolls
Djinn Skein Gladiatoria: Militia – By supplying Djinn Skein Gladiatoria to your militia training programs you should be able to push your militia's training to another level of skill, making them an even more effective defence for your cities. This will most likely have a trickle-up effect on the quality of your regular forces due to better-trained recruits, and as such will provide a significant boost to your entire army's combat power. On the other hand it will be incredibly expensive, even by your standards.
Time: 30 years
Cost: 4,200,000,000,000 Thrones, 42,000,000,000 Material, 4,200,000,000 Metal, 420,000,000 Promethium, 810,000,000 Advanced Material, 9,200,000 Exotic Material.

Reward: Djinn Skein Gladiatoria training program for all militia, +24 to militia combat skill, +5 to regular combat skill

Time: 1 year (must be taken with Feasibility Study: Idea)
Cost: Free
Reward: Learn if the suggested design is useful, and if it is not whether you can do something to make it useful.

Militia Readiness Training – General Khol suggests putting the militia though combat readiness training in order to ensure that they are fully prepared for the incoming invasion.

Jane is highly worried about the news of Chaos' Galactic Ritual, and what it would mean for the efforts to keep down rogue Psykers. While her current forces and those of the Lizardmen should be enough to ensure that Rogue Psykers cause little damage as they are, a significant power boost to all Psykers will change that. She is looking into ways to even further boost her Psyker Hunters in preparation for this, a task made more challenging by how much she has already put into them.

Integrate Lizardmen- Recently the Saurus Empire have agreed to assist you in the hunt for Rogue Psykers by deploying Lizardmen Hunting packs and the Oldblood Zuxoch-Qa. Given how deadly Saurus Warriors are, and how terrifying their Oldbloods can be this is a major boon to your psyker hunters.

Despite another series of brushes with death for Archmagos Biologis Maximal the Adeptus Mechanicus remains intact, for the moment at least. Fabricator-General Scott is worried by the increasing radicalisation of the remaining conservatives, and tells you that a war of annihilation with them will occur within the next half century no matter what she does. While she will win said war not without the conservatives inflicting major damage to several key locations, including the shipyards of Vanaheim which maintain the mighty fleets of the Imperial Trust.

Personal Void Shields- In his study of Void Shields Archmagos Tranth made enough progress recreating the legendary Void Shield Harness's used during the Great Crusade may be possible. These Void Shields are small enough to be merely awkward for a power armoured warrior, and can make the bearer and those near him immune to small arms fire and able to take some anti-tank firepower before overloading. On the downside miniaturising Void Shields to that extent will not be easy, and the result will not be cheap.
Time: 6 years
Chance of Success: -125% (44% after bonuses)

Reward: learn how to make Void Shield Harness's
Gravitic Engines Part Four: Upgrade – Archmagos Tranth has recently determined that it is possible to improve the Gravitic Engines you got from The Well of Urd.

Gravitic Array Program (System) – Now that Archmagos Tranth has figured out how to create programs to run the Gravitic Array, all that remains is to actually create the programs. He will need to create a separate program for every system that the array is used in, at least for the moment.
Time: 2 years

Advanced Singularity Thrusters: Part One – Advanced Singularity Thrusters are a highly complex manoeuvring system that makes use of gravitational wells to pull off rapid turns. What the Imperial Trust currently has access to are work-in-progress prototypes only able to be fitted on Escorts. Given that the intended aim of the thrusters was to provide a rapid manoeuvre system for Super-Capitals and above it is clear that there is a lot of room to improve them.

Reward: First step on the path towards allowing Advanced Singularity Thrusters to be used by larger ships
Naval Neutron Guns – Found in one of the Data-Jewels on Roskilde these weapons are complex with an enormous power draw. These designs were prototypes intended for use with an annihilation reactor. Currently they are works in progress, riddled with flaws making them not viable combat weapons but if they could be completed they would be a powerful and exceedingly long-ranged weapon for those ships able to supply them with power. Archmagos Tranth believes that with a good decade's work he might be able to finish the designs, giving you a rather powerful new naval weapon.
Time: 10 years
Chance of Success: -110% (increased by 40 by Fundamentals: Neutron Las or by 20 by Fundamentals: Las) (-28%)

Reward: Allows production of Naval Neutron Guns
Ultimate Shield: Part One – Found in one of the Data-Jewels on Roskilde was a work in progress on creating a far more effective void shield, one that would require the power of a Deus' antimatter reactor to power and be able to shrug off pretty much any conventional weapon. Currently they are far from being completed, with design having stalled on encountering several major obstacles. Archmagos Tranth tells you that it will be a decades long project to complete this design but one that can be easily split into several small projects.

Locked- Four out of Eight years completed
Personal Void Shields- In his study of Void Shields Archmagos Tranth made enough progress recreating the legendary Void Shield Harness's used during the Great Crusade may be possible. These Void Shields are small enough to be merely awkward for a power armoured warrior, and can make the bearer and those near him immune to small arms fire and able to take some anti-tank firepower before overloading. On the downside miniaturising Void Shields to that extent will not be easy, and the result will not be cheap.

Reward: Total production of chosen resource for the year increased by 5% per success, can be taken multiple times, critical success has a chance of providing permanent boost.
Black Ship Design: Grand Cruiser – Now that you have determined how to ward Black Ships it is time to create your first design. Black Ships will allow you to start training Psykers from worlds that do not have a major Adeptus Astra Telepathica presence, greatly increasing the number of Psykers that you can train. If you make a Grand Cruiser scale Black Ship it will be significantly cheaper and faster to build than a Grand Cruiser, but be less able to protect its precious cargo from attack.

Reward: Designs for Grand Cruiser scale Black Ship
Hyper Heavy Cruiser Design: Graviton – Archmagos Tranth has recently worked out how to fit Hyper-Plasma reactors into smaller warships. This will allow the creation of Heavy Cruisers armed with more powerful weapons, such as Graviton Weapons. A Heavy Cruiser equipped with a Hyper-Plasma reactor and Graviton Weapons would be capable of massive amounts of damage to targets within short range, though the Hyper-Plasma Reactor would make it more vulnerable than you would like on a brawler.

Advanced Ramilies Design: Type – Archmagos Tranth has recently finished reverse engineering the Ramilies Starfort and has sketched out a few different ways that it could be improved with current technology. Both Fabricator-General Scott and he are able to turn these simple ideas into complete plans, though given the size of a Ramilies it will take some time. The current suggestions for design variants are pure fortress, orbital defence station, forward operating base, and orbital artillery, though there may be other possible purposes.

The Battle Psykers of Avernus have almost recovered from their losses against Hive Fleet Grábakr, with the hundreds of thousands of Psykers found each year being able to quickly refill their ranks. Given that Ridcully foresees a quite period for the Imperial Trust coming this would be a good time to set up the infrastructure for the next few centuries, and to continue your research.
High Grandmaster Ridcully gained Artifact: Olhixcocl's Defence (+100 vs Psychic effects, +1 armour, block first hit each round)- The small size of Olhixcocl's Defence belies its ability to halt even the greatest of attacks in its tracks, a abiity that its first wielder used to fight against the larger monsters of Avernus and that Ridcully can use to protect himself against the Greater Deamons of Chaos. For a while.

Research: Destructive Resonances (Changer of Ways) – Now that your psykers have discovered several of the exact frequencies that the Chaos Gods seem to rely on, it is possible to determine which frequencies resonate destructively with them. This is the next step on the path to creating specific anti-Chaos powers, which should prove very useful against the coming threats. While not as dangerous as finding the frequencies this still runs a worrying risk of taint.

Anti-Blood God Powers: Countering – Tamia thinks that with a few years' effort and a bit of luck she will be able to create a Psychic Power designed to specifically counter the Powers of the Blood God. Given the complexity of the Blood God compared to Orks she will need to combine both Freedom and Independence to best counter the Abomination's powers, though leaning more towards Independence.

Law of Attraction – High Grandmaster Ridcully recently discovered what seem to be three Laws that underpin the Warp. The first of these Laws is the Law of Attraction, which can be summed up as "like calls to like". This is what causes primal gods to arise and is the basis for some forms of divination, and for curses such as the one afflicting the Blood Angels. With more study High Grandmaster Ridcully may be able to determine more about this Law, possibly including how to take advantage of it.

Law of Cost – High Grandmaster Ridcully recently discovered what seem to be three Laws that underpin the Warp. The second of these Laws is the Law of Cost, which can be summed up as "nothing involving the Warp is free, and if you think it is there is a price you can not see". He tells you that this applies to everyone, from the weakest of Psykers to the Great Gods. The price can range from the energy it takes to wield the Warp to your soul itself. With more study High Grandmaster Ridcully may be able to determine more about this Law, possibly including how to take advantage of it.

Law of of Narrative – High Grandmaster Ridcully recently discovered what seem to be three Laws that underpin the Warp. The third of these Laws is the Law of Narrative which has several effects, all of which result in making things more likely to happen as they would in a story. These effects leak into the Materium as well and are so pervasive that they are hard to see. This seems to bend the fate of great heroes, allowing them victory after victory until they fall in a heroic last stand or meet someone with a greater story behind them, as well as many other effects that are so commonplace that they are just how the world works. With more study High Grandmaster Ridcully may be able to determine more about this Law, possibly including how to take advantage of it.

Primal Warp – Recently Saint Lin discovered the existence of the Primal Warp, a layer of the Warp created by the souls of plants and animals. This layer is utterly incompatible with Chaos and is possible to draw on for Psykers. As such it is a subject of great interest for the Adeptus Astra Telepathica, who are fascinated by its potential as a comparatively safe source for their powers to draw on. The first step in accessing the Primal Warp wold be finding it, a task that only High Grandmaster Ridcully has a real chance of.

Time: 2 years
Cost: 39,000,000 Thrones, 7,800,000 Material, 790,000 Promethium, 85,000 Advanced Material, 95 Exotic Material.

Reward: find one Warp Echo
Research: Conceptional Bonding: First Stage – Recently it has been found that Truesteel works by somehow permanently bonding the concept of steel to metal. Given that conceptional bonding is considered to be highly unstable and requires constant attention from a skilled Psyker to maintain, the fact that a stable form of it exists is highly interesting, among other reasons because it was believed to be impossible. Tamia thinks that if she spends a decade or so studying Truesteel she will learn more about how it works; not nearly enough to replicate the feat but still enough to be of great use. She mentions that among other uses any more information on this subject may be useful in working out how to copy the power that Island Turtles use, which would be invaluable.
Time: 12 years
Chance of Success: 25% (uses learning)
Cost: 39,000,000 Thrones, 390,000 Material, 850 Advanced Material, 95 Exotic Material.

Examine: (Siren Rune) – The Sirens have recently traded knowledge of how to make several forms of Runes in exchange for the souls of chaos cultists. Tamia would like to spend a few years examining each in order to both determine what it does and to ensure that it is safe. This will also determine exactly how you can use the rune, including whether you can form wards of it or inscribe it on weapons.
Time: 3 years (must be taken by Tamia)
Chance of Success: 80% (uses learning)
Cost: 39,000,000 Thrones, 390,000 Material, 850 Advanced Material, 95 Exotic Material.
Reward: Determine the effects of the selected Rune and whether it is safe
Psychic Materials: Wildlife – There are some materials that channel psychic energies better than others, or in certain ways. Given the sheer variety of psychic wildlife of differing sorts on Avernus, Grandmaster Jameson believes that at least some of them will be useful in this manner. She will only be able to examine a single type of creature at a time, so it will take quite some time to examine everything that Avernus has to offer.
Time: 1 year
Cost: 4,000,000 Thrones, 400,000 Material, 4,250 Advanced Materials.
Reward: Determine if any part of selected species is useful as a psychic conductor.
Research: Black Crystal Items (Item) – Headmaster Ridcully has determined that each of the items of Black Crystal has its own unique property, though he was not able to determine what they are.

Time: 2 year
Chance of Success: Unknown (uses learning)
Cost: 355,000 thrones, 17,750 Material, 43 Advanced Material.
Reward: More information on Black Crystal Item selected
Research (species for which Biologis research has been completed) – Many of the more interesting creatures of Avernus use psychic powers in some manner and while Archmagos Biologis Maximal has discovered as much about them as he can, there is still more to learn. Headmaster Ridcully would like to lead a team of Sanctionites to try to discover more about these species, hopefully including how to mimic their innate powers in some manner.
Time: 1 year
Chance of Success: Unknown (uses learning)
Cost: 81,000 thrones, 8,100 Material, 8.6 Advanced Material.

Locked- Four out of Six years completed
Royal Alkahestry – The Nynye are now willing to share the secrets of Alkahestry with the Adeptus Astra Telepathica. While Alkahestry is a highly complex art that takes decades to learn, your psykers now have a good grasp of even its advanced principles. This allows them to begin work on the highest level of Alkahestry, Royal Alkahestry. Royal Alkahestry is far more complex than even Master-level Alkahestry and it will likely take decades for your Psykers to get a grip on it.
Time: 20 years
Chance of Success: 10% (uses learning)
Cost: Free
Reward: Adeptus Astra Telepathica learns Royal level skills of Alkahestry, unlocks Alkahestrial enhancements and Titants

Anti-Dark Prince Powers: Grand Banishing – Now that Tamia has created a power that can be used to banish the servants of the Dark Prince she now needs to figure out how to scale it up to make it usable by entire choirs.

Anti-Blood God Powers: Countering – Tamia thinks that with a few years' effort and a bit of luck she will be able to create a Psychic Power designed to specifically counter the Powers of the Blood God. Given the complexity of the Blood God compared to Orks she will need to combine both Freedom and Independence to best counter the Abomination's powers, though leaning more towards Independence. As with the Orks her initial power will be small-scale, and she will create a larger version from it.
Time: 6 years
Chance of Success: -10% (uses learning)
Cost: 39,000,000 Thrones, 390,000 Material, 850 Advanced Material, 95 Exotic Material.
Reward: Create personal-scale power optimised to counters the powers of the Abomination
Anti-Dark Prince Powers: Grand Countering – Now that Tamia has created a power that can be used to counter those of the servants of the Dark Prince she now needs to figure out how to scale it up to make it usuable by entire choirs.

Anti-Abomination Powers: Banishing – Tamia thinks that with a few years' effort and a bit of luck she will be able to create a Psychic Power designed to specifically banish Angyls. Given the complexity of the Abomination compared to Orks she will need to combine both Freedom and Independence to best counter the Abomination's powers, though in this case Freedom would be the focus. As with the Orks her initial power will be small-scale, and she will create a larger version from it.

Reward: Create personal-scale power optimised for banishing Angyls
Research: Destructive Resonances (Chaos God) – Now that your psykers have discovered several of the exact frequencies that the Chaos Gods seem to rely on, it is possible to determine which frequencies resonate destructively with them. This is the next step on the path to creating specific anti-Chaos powers, which should prove very useful against the coming threats. While not as dangerous as finding the frequencies this still runs a worrying risk of taint.
Time: 6 years (must be taken by Ridcully or Tamia, best done by the person who found the frequencies)
Chance of Success: -10% (uses learning)
Cost: 39,000,000 Thrones, 390,000 Material, 850 Advanced Material, 95 Exotic Material.

Cost: 4,800,000 Thrones, 380,000 Material, 8,400 Advanced Material, 940 Exotic Material.
Reward: Determine if selected recipe is possible
Anti-Ork Powers: Grand Techbane – Now that he has created an anti-Ork Power Xavier thinks that it is possible to upscale it so that it can be used by entire Choirs of Psykers. While it would take a good bit of research to create, this power would allow your Demonology Choirs to cause malfunctions to entire Orkish armies, or even disable Gargants.
Time: 7 years
Chance of Success: -50% (uses learning)
Cost: 180,000,000 Thrones, 1,800,000 Material, 4,200 Advanced Material, 480 Exotic Material.
Reward: Create choir-scale power able to cause Ork technology to malfunction
Law of Attraction – High Grandmaster Ridcully recently discovered what seem to be three Laws that underpin the Warp. The first of these Laws is the Law of Attraction, which can be summed up as "like calls to like". This is what causes primal gods to arise and is the basis for some forms of divination, and for curses such as the one afflicting the Blood Angels. With more study High Grandmaster Ridcully may be able to determine more about this Law, possibly including how to take advantage of it.

Law of Cost – High Grandmaster Ridcully recently discovered what seem to be three Laws that underpin the Warp. The second of these Laws is the Law of Cost, which can be summed up as "nothing involving the Warp is free, and if you think it is there is a price you can not see". He tells you that this applies to everyone, from the weakest of Psykers to the Great Gods. The price can range from the energy it takes to wield the Warp to your soul itself. With more study High Grandmaster Ridcully may be able to determine more about this Law, possibly including how to take advantage of it.

Law of of Narrative – High Grandmaster Ridcully recently discovered what seem to be three Laws that underpin the Warp. The third of these Laws is the Law of Narrative which has several effects, all of which result in making things more likely to happen as they would in a story. These effects leak into the Materium as well and are so pervasive that they are hard to see. This seems to bend the fate of great heroes, allowing them victory after victory until they fall in a heroic last stand or meet someone with a greater story behind them, as well as many other effects that are so commonplace that they are just how the world works. With more study High Grandmaster Ridcully may be able to determine more about this Law, possibly including how to take advantage of it.

Primal Warp – Recently Saint Lin discovered the existence of the Primal Warp, a layer of the Warp created by the souls of plants and animals. This layer is utterly incompatible with Chaos and is possible to draw on for Psykers. As such it is a subject of great interest for the Adeptus Astra Telepathica, who are fascinated by its potential as a comparatively safe source for their powers to draw on. The first step in accessing the Primal Warp wold be finding it, a task that only High Grandmaster Ridcully has a real chance of.

Honing an Edge – You live in a galaxy of war so it might be a good idea for the heroic Psykers of Avernus to focus on preparing themselves. While normally the time just before a war is not a good time for a military force's leadership to spend a year meditating and training themselves, when the leader is as powerful a weapon as a heroic psyker it becomes a good option.

Mentoring: Beta – Given the high rate of failure for the more powerful psykers Headmaster Ridcully would like to have one of his best psykers mentor any Beta-levels in the year leading up to their trials. This will hopefully be enough to increase their chance of passing by a significant degree.
Time: 1 year. (can be taken once)
Chance of Success: 50%
Cost: Free
Reward: each point of success increases the chance of Beta-level psykers passing the trials
Currently you are trying to deal with the combination of Syr's death and your argument with Tormod. While he went to far in his accusations what hurts the most is that to a point he was correct. You have been assuming that Avernus will be following blood inheritance, in large part because that was what you grew up with. It might be a good idea to look into what alternatives there are, and choose one.
Tormod upgrades trait Veteran Survivor (+3C, far less likely to die) into Tried and Tested Survivor (+5C, far less likely to die) - Tormod has managed to survive in countless situations that would be expected to kill him thoughout his life, and come out of them all alive, and more often then not intact.

Asgard, Byzantium, Muspelheim are who I would like to look at. Funny options are Eldar (we'd be asking them about xeno succession on deathworlds). Quartus, Secundus and Callamus are likely too disimillar to be of great use.

Wow, propably the best trait out there, and also mechanically great.
Unrelated to that and about the Dragon:
What do we know about the capabilities of the Dragon?
In Red Flag's work he is the unquestioned master of physics, knowing quite literally anything there is to know and can use this not only to "invent" technology without any research or testing, but also to predict his foes almost perfectly, unless the Warp (that he can't percieve or understand) is somehow involved.
That means Psyker-heavy factions have something of an advantage against him and even humans can sometimes surprise him, due to having a soul and free will outside of mechanical predictability. Even our tech has some minor resistance against him due to Machine Spirits.
However, the Necrons, soulless and Materium-bound as they are, are almost completly useless against him, their every move predicted, their ships and weapons overtaken or disabled with ease. Their only and best shot against the Dragon back in the last war was the Warp-Cannon of the Blackstone Fortresses, that the Dragon didn't expect (back then, now he knows about it of course).
Might that be similar here, that the Necrons directly are relativly useless?

Someone wants to go out with as bang, looking forward to see what comes of this.
Polishing our rep with the Trust could be useful now.
"With these Thunder Hunters and Lizardmen hunting packs my lifelong goal of keeping Avernus safe from rogue psykers is finally complete."
"I have some bad new Jane"
"Reeeeeeeeeeeeee!"
This would be wise, this issue needs to be dealt with.

I think the Silent King may have some opinions on that, since the Dragon maybe the strongest, but that descrives every C'tan.
I'd say its a guarnateed chance that they've got both tactics and weapons to deal with it.
I'd be very surprised if Szarhek was just ****ing around for the last 60 million years.
Midgard might be a good choice, too, since they don't have hereditary succession. (speaking of which, I'm surprised their governor hasn't died yet)
That said, I had really thought this matter was already settled from when we married Freya - hereditary unless there's no incompetent/unworthy biological heir, otherwise pick someone else. It's pretty much what she agreed to.

He's only 673
Got at least another 30 years in him, assuming he doesn't go for other options available to the powerful in the trust to boost it more.
