Once more he saw the lasgun being pushed into his hand. Once more he saw the door torn apart. Once more he saw his mother’s head disintegrating in a cloud of red mist. Once more he saw the sinister giant dragging his father into an air duct. The image faded away. Hieronymus stared at the strange figure that loomed before him, its mirror-face now showing utter darkness. “You have already faced your greatest of fears, human child.” The female voice ebbed away. He could not say whether those words had actually been spoken or only formed in his mind. “It is him.” One of the grotesquely clothed aliens waiting in the back approached. They were warriors. He had seen them cleansing the ship of their enemies with a kind of grace and elegance he would never forget. The warrior put something at his feet. “It will ward off evil spirits. Wear it, und you will be able to see it clearly- the path that is yours.” He knelt down to look at their gift. It was an amulet. Hieronymus VI. von Remus Hieronymus von Remus VI. was born into a rich and influential family of merchants. His parents, however, were killed in a Chaos raid on their flagship when he was only eight standard years old. He himself was only saved then thanks to the sudden intervention of a band of Eldar Harlequins. Upon reaching majority he surprisingly sold off the conglomerate he had inherited and left home without giving any reason. His aimless wandering took him all across the galaxy, and it was not for long until he entered the dubious profession of a mercenary and rogue trader. PROFILE FOR Hieronymus is right-handed.

Warhammer 40K: Orks by Aehriman
Warhammer 40K: Orks By Aehriman The Orks are the pinnacle of creation. For them, the great struggle is won. They have evolved a society which knows no stress or angst. Who are we to judge them? We Eldar who have failed, or the Humans, on the road to ruin in their turn? And why? Because we sought answers to questions that an Ork wouldn't even bother to ask! We see a culture that is strong and despise it as crude. -Ulthan the Perverse, controversial Eldar philosopher "Of all the races I have battled throughout the galaxy, the Ork is the hardest to comprehend. They wage war with machines that should not work, care little for strategic gains, and are just as likely to slaughter each other as the enemy. How does one battle an enemy that defies all logic?" -Captain Varnael Larik, Rogue Trader The Orks plague the galaxy from end to end with their ceaseless warring and strife. They are a race rooted so deeply in war that peace is utterly incomprehensible to them. They cannot be bargained with or bought save with weapons that they will inevitably turn against those who tried to bribe them. I pray with all my faith that some great catastrophe will annihilate them but I fear that ultimately it is they, not we, who shall rule the galaxy. -Xanthius, High Lord of Terra "Orkses is neva defeated in battle. If we win we win, if we die we die fightin' so it don't count. If we runz for it we don't lose eva, cos we can come back for annuver go, see!" -Common Ork Saying WAAAAAAAAAAAGH! -Every Ork Ever Alright, shut yer gobs an listen up.

As the streets are inundated with horrors from beyond the veil, Supreme Overlord Asdrubael Vect battles to keep his enemies in check and maintain his stranglehold over the riven city. Kabal turns upon kabal, archon against archon as the fires of hell are unleashed. Redemption for Commorragh rests in the hands of a disgraced incubus warrior wrongly accused of triggering the Dysjunction itself. His efforts to reclaim his lost honour could save the city or damn it forever – assuming it can survive the daemonic invasion and the archons’ deadly battles for supremacy.

Warhammer 40,000: Tyranids by Valeria
Warhammer 40,000: Tyranids By Valeria Introduction Warhammer 40,000. A galaxy where there is only war. Men, aliens, daemon and robots all battle for conquest, extermination and to serve their dark masters. It’s a dark, grim world to find yourself in and hope is rare to find. But as bad as it may seem, as hopeless as life may feel, a growing threat seeks to make it so much worse. The Great Devourer draws ever nearer to this galaxy that teems with life. The Tyranid swarm ever hungers. The Tyranids are a race that travelled from outside this galaxy. They seek only to feed and eat and devour. There is no culture, no history, no love. The entire race exists as a united hivemind, the combined psychic and mental energies of every Tyranid organism that directs the species to devour all biological life and continuously evolve. Their true number and origin is unknown. Perhaps they have devoured countless galaxies already and what fleets of Tyranids have arrived, each taking a devastating toll on sections of the galaxy, are mere fragments of the great beast. Or perhaps what has been seen so far is all there is to the race. Whatever the truth of the Tyranid race is, you now find yourself to be one of these organisms. You’ll be on one of the existing fleets during their invasions into this galaxy or an entirely new fleet. For the next ten years, you’ll be responsible for fulfilling a role assigned by your species, so as to drive your entire species ever onwards towards victory.

Warhammer 40,000: Craftworld Eldar CYOA (Jumpchain-Compliant!)
Warhammer 40,000: Craftworld Eldar CYOA (Jumpchain-Compliant!) The Eldar. An ancient race, born some sixty million years ago in the War in Heaven. Raised from genetic stock cultivated by the Old Ones in their galaxy-spanning battle against the Necrontyr and the C'tan. Alongside the Krork, the Eldar were the foot-soldiers of the Old Ones, wielding the powers of the Realm of Souls against the soulless monsters they faced in the form of the Necron. When the Necron began their long sleep, the Eldar turned from servants to inheritors, bringing nearly the whole of the Milky Way under their reign – only to grow decadent and hedonistic as centuries became millennia became untold eons. While mankind still festered on Old Earth, chucking spears at ancient mega-fauna, the Eldar removed their need to truly work with automatons that handled all manual labor, engines that could reshape stars, and greater wonders still. Impossible trillions inhabited the galaxy by the time mankind's Dark Age of Technology began – and it was the Eldar that would put an end to that age. Had it not been for the psychic feedback created by the growing decadence of this ancient race, mankind might yet have recovered from the assault by the Men of Iron. Alas, it was not to be – for some ten thousand years ago, the Dark God Slaanesh was born. The Eldar gods, save three, were slain and devoured by She Who Thirsts. The Exodites, having abandoned the Pleasure Cults long before, were relatively safe, as were the cultists of the Webway city of Commoragh and the austere denizens of the Craftworlds which fled the core worlds just ahead of a wave of destruction.
