Soldier of the Margin Crusade
Career: Guardsman
Homeworld: Any
Cost: 200 xp
The Margin Crusade into the Halos Stars was launched following ratifying of the Lex Corvinus by the Great Synod Segmentum thirty years ago. This bull granted the power to raise a war of faith under the auspices of High Confessor Corvinus of Thracian Primaris and called upon the Sectors Scarus, Calixis and Ixaniad to provide the means. In the subsequent decades, the Crusade made scant progress and slowly exhausted itself, boiling away beyond the borders of Calixian space, far beyond the frontier world of Kalf. The Crusade continues to demand regiments from Lord Sector Hax, and he reluctantly supplies troops from the worlds of Calixis under the proviso that surviving veteran regiments are returned after a span of service before fresh meat is fed to the grinder. The war is a diverse and bloody affair, bogged down by the vagaries of warp travel and the tactical ineptitude of those in charge, achieving little despite thousands of lives spent and the continued admonitions of its controlling priests.
The soldiers who have returned from Corvinus’s holy war are scarred veterans who have seen much in their travels, and their experiences out beyond the Emperor’s light make them ideal for service with the Holy Ordos.
Characteristics: Reduce Toughness by –3.
Skills: You gain Awareness (Per) and Survival (Int).
Talents: Gain the Unshakable Faith talent.
