As I always said, I have no problems if you would decide to forsake Imperium and transform this into Warband Quest, however your roll just assured me that it's not happening any time soon.

>>23345849
>Get shopping list of things to buy in new Forge
That'll require at least an hour or so of my work, so I'll leave it for later.

How many volunteers and which of his suggested geneseed acceleration methods do you pick?
>Seal away Messiah AI
Done.
>Go to Varda, drop off Clarus, investigate possible Red Giants infiltration
Where and how exactly are you planning to drop him off? Most of your Chapter thinks that a traitor should be dropped off into the void.
>Leave Brethorius in charge whilst we go and help Adriel.
How and where?

Overall - surprisingly well thought out plan.

>>23346063
>Where and how exactly are you planning to drop him off? Most of your Chapter thinks that a traitor should be dropped off into the void.
We're putting him on Varda, like we stated.
And there he will stay, if he leaves without our permission he will be exiled.
And get rid of the bug he planted too.
>Done.
Not forever I hope.

We're posting Clarus to Macedon's 6th company on Varda. This means he's just stuck on the green dirtball and can't spy on Chapter Master. And let's not forget that there are greenskins in them jungles....and his brothers won't be watching his back....

Kerius smiles as you enter his office. You notice that he looks much older than when you first met him, but he is still the same old, grumpy but unrelenting soldier he always was.
>What brings you to me, Astarte? I think I should thank you for the way how you managed to convince Sector Lord to supply Mormark with food again. Shame that I didn't have a chance to meet you earlier. You've done us a great favour and we are very grateful.

>Talk with our brothers around the Tombstone so we can assign more Chapter specialists

Would you like to speak with specific brothers or find news talents from among common marines?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIGHCoVzqtk

>>23346244
Worry not Kerius, for Mormark I should have had the High Lords of Terra come themselves to supply us with food.
Are there any problems with the Imperium's citizens, or are the Emperor's servants doing their job as well as we can?
Did you take that vacation I recommended?

>>23346244
We require a fleet master at the moment, as well as a new Chaplain, no named marines I can recall come out to me as a naval type, and the only marine that could be chaplain is Kronos, and I'm planning on making him a company captain as soon as we get the next geneseed harvest, so let's have a chat with new marines. Look for ones reading books about naval things etc. for the fleet master, and for Chaplain material looks for the obvious fire and brimstone material.

There is absolutely nothing official regarding his new posting, no written exile, no recorded penance, nothing for Kest to pick up on.

We tell Macedon to keep an eye on him, but don't do anything too....rash.

>>23346318
>Is Clarus oficially exiled/given penance?
If he spreads discontent among Civilians, attacks anyone without evidence, or tries to leave without permission he is exiled.
>Should he use Raven's Tome?
No, however we are going to reward the information in it if Klementhos does well.

As soon as quarantine is over, I am thinking of raising a cadre of Imperial Guard regiments here, maybe even a whole battle group, if Sector Governor approves. Sector is getting weak, my friend, I feel it. Mormark is one of those few places where Imperial blood hasn't thinned yet. Sadly, there is no time for vacations... On the other hand, I have a personal request for you. When going to your next mission - could you take my sons Xavior and Artemis with you? This quarantine is choking the life out of us, and I am afraid that my boys will grow up without seeing a galaxy and that is no way to raise a new ruler...

>>23346490
Well Kerius, the Quarantine restricts such actions, however I will do the best I can.
We will pick them up soon, I will guarantee it my friend.
Is there any special requests for what you want them to see?
Or, not to see?

You mingle with marines at every given opportunity, trying to get to know each one of them better and to understand their strengths and weaknesses... Chapter was bled dry during the last few battles, you need fresh minds and souls to revive it.

One of the first marines to draw your attention is Tempestos. A young, but extremely devout marine, he is built like a brick house(even when compared with other brothers), his voice echoes even in the middle of a field and Leutenant Cagerates mentioned, that he saw Tempestos knock Sarkos out with a single strike. Tempestos doesn't belong to any cult yet, adhering to the more traditional way of Codex Astartes. On the other hand he is not known for his intelligence or imagination.

Another man you found was Copernicon, Leutenant in the Second Company, an Ice Wraith serving under Harmantos. His passion and love is sky. He spends his free time exploring starcharts and reading books about astronomy. If you are looking for a marine who would have a slightest chance to choose starship deck over a ground battlefield, it would be him, however it will take long time to train him... (Starfleet masters and ship captains are usually human, as Astartes are more useful in other roles, however having an Astartes Fleet Master would be awesome, but it will require a little more more effort)

Another brother whom you haven't noticed before is Simmer, one of the new scouts, Mormarkian by birth, atheistic in his views, and very practical in his approach to war. He proved to be a top notch marksman, but is also intelligent enough to learn himself many of the sacred machine rites. He could become a good Techmarine or maybe a superior marksman.

Rolled 45, 40, 66 = 151

>>23346743
Offer Tempestos training to be a Chaplain, for his wondrous voice and power.
Offer Copernicon a tutor to help him become a Ship Captain.
And finally, Simmer should have personal help from the Forge Master to become a worthy tech marine.

Seran does a good job and now Proteus 34, or as Brethorius calls him 'Pro', is flying around you as a cybernetic eagle. He seems to enjoy his new body a lot, but constantly tries to engage with random officers in philosophical talks about the meaning of life.

>>23346384
>>23346397
Klementhos is so excited that he comes running into your cell:
>Milord! It has worked! I managed to convince 9 brothers to become volunteers and I've had a 100% success rate on all of the procedures! I've managed to accelerate their production of geneseed about 9.2 times, meaning that in a year their current geneseed will be ready to harvest! Ofcourse, until then I'll have to keep close watch on them for side effects...

A little later Nerial approaches you and informs:
>We received two transmissions, one from Captain Dreidor and the other from Lord Sector Governor Larion Ursus. Captain Dreidor reports that they've run into first serious trouble on Kruun - it seems that prisoner rebels have received some heavy weapons from off-world and some of our brothers have died,. There is a list of 12 names attached, it appears they paid the ultimate price. Meanwhile Larion Ursus is asking when will those marines you promised will arrive.

>>23346743
Furthermore, look specifically for new marines with an outspoken interest for biomedical procedures, and things related to an Apothecary's job. We'll be needing those with our experimentation.

Unexpectedly, our Escort "Kentauros" returns. Actium, Techmarine that you sent to Mars and didn't wait for him to return in less than a decade, all of a sudden appears on your front door.
>Milord! Our mission was a complete success - Emperor smiled upon us and our journey took just a couple of years to complete! Furthermore, our machine worshipping brothers in Mars have heard our plea for help and decided to help us out without asking for anything in return expect for a token of gratitude - accepting and protecting three of their emmissaries so that they could extend dominion of Mars wherever our Chapter goes. Let me to introduce you to Magos Explorator Adelphi, Magos Artificiatorum Misriah and Magos Mechanite Bunther...
The first techmarine is not known to you, but you suddenly feel as your twin hearts start beating faster when you remember your days on Luna that you spent with Misriah and Bunther, those two crazy cogheads who were responsible for outfitting your Chapter and instructing you...

There are in fact two marines in your Chapter who seem to fit description of a man you are looking for. One of them is Neiton, an Apothecary known as "Stitch", who is known for his dedication to healing and curing. In his own words 'destroying is hard, creating is harder and restoring is hardest. I never took the easy path'. His specialty is battlefield wounds and more then three dozen brothers can thank him for their lives. However "Stitch" is known for having a weak will and character when compared with other marines, for example it is known that he is psychologically addicted to smoking and using light drugs(physically for an Astartes it is impossible), he caught those habits while stationed on Mormark, in one of the red light districts where he often patrolled.


Another Apothecary that seems to be more than dedicated to the field of biological sciences is Avicenor. He is an unofficial student of Klementhos and a good friend of Seran, making him proficient both in the fields of medicine and machinery. He is undoubtedly the best person to ask for augmentation, implants and improvements of your body. However some claim, that he is a too unorthodox - his quest to improve human body is almost equal to the zeal of techpriests to augment their body parts...

>>23347901
Oh Skargan, are you creating me in-game?
Assign Avicenor to aid Klementhos in getting used to the Apothecary machinery.
P.S What the guy originally meant was non-apothecaries to become Apothecaries

>>23347949
Assign them both to Klementhos, Stitch to learn a bit of researcher's discipline, and Avicenor to get used to all the shiny new toys he's going to be working with.

Techpriests politely nod to you, but despite you noticing their warm attitude, they do not break the spectacle in front of their senior Magos Explorator. Adelphi is the one who answers:
>Council of Mars has recently decided that this part of our glorious Imperium has been under-explored. We have multiple tasks and missions here. Partly, we will just ask you to allow us follow you in your tasks and grant us shelter and support, however sometimes, if we will think there is a good opportunity to gain or retrieve knowledge we seek, we'll ask for your aid. Furthermore - we have another mission that is secret. I will tell it for you, but you are not allowed to let it slip your lips, otherwise you will forever be shunned by servants of Mars. We are here to observe Forge World of Nestorium, and more importantly - it's master who is known as Regon. There are certain things that worry us on Mars about him and we are here to investigate them. Finally, we are looking for certain Assassin known as Ceiron, High Lords of Terra informed us that he was last sent to your Chapter but afterwards he failed to return. We need his services and thus we must find him.

>>23348267
May I ask what troubles you about the nearby Forge World?
Regon has been a trusty friend over the decades, they've helped us get back on our feet.
And we were just about to call for Ceiron actually, he got mixed up with some business on another planet, we'll try and recall him for you now.

And thus we phoned someone who was on the hive-water-world-thingy where Ceiron was where he was.

Also, after we're done with the Magi, pay a visit to Nerial Derang, our High Astropath.

Nerial Derang is very glad and spends almost 6 hours talking about his days as an astropath. Finally, when you offer him something just so that he would let you go, he says:
>Well, you could always get me some high quality amasec if it's not a problem to you... It helps me fall asleep. Oh, and I constantly kept forgetting to give it to you, but as you visited me, I guess it's a good idea to give it to you. All those years ago, when the Chapter was nothing more than just some notes and blueprints, Entyrus Zykion, High Lord of Terra who decided that Ghosts of Retribution need to be founded, gave me this thing.
He takes out an old, small rusty key.
>He wasn't sure whether he'll be still working on the project, so he asked me to give this key to the man who will become the Chapter Master. Soon, he wasn't able to work as the coordinator of this project, but because of other reasons than he thought - he was assassinated. Well, but politics is a dirty business, I guess... Yes, I know, it's strange why he wanted such a strange trinket given to you, but as it was his personal wish... Please, take it.

>It will take up to a decade for Cathedral to undo the damage that was done to the climate during these years. But one thing is certain for now - Prothera is saved and soon will return to it's normal state... However social and cultural wounds will take a lot longer time to heal. Infrastructure is wrecked, government doesn't exist and ruins of once mighty cities are under iron rule of techno-barbarians who roam them in search of a lasgun or canned food.

There is a total of:
3 major city states - Lastum, Virilis, Auctumnus
47 lesser cities
Only major city states still have some power to fight off Astartes, having looted some heavy weapons, etc. They all would like the planet to be restored under Imperial rule, however they want to be the ones to rule it, thus making an alliance between them impossible, unless a lot of money would be invested.

Bribing a city state: 10 wealth + 1d5 wealth for each fail on the negotiations roll. Technically, if you would bribe two city states and promise leadership for third one, this world would be in your palm.

Auctumnus supports idea of returning to democracy just like it was in the pre-Storm world. However in truth it is a clique of very corrupt former politicians that clearly understand that they won't be able to return to those days of prosperity any time soon and just want power for themselves.

Virilis is ruled by a warlord named Keighan, he is ruling by brute strength and is very devout, claiming that it is his manifest destiny to rule Prothera.

Lastum is run by former Imperial Guard commander Justinian, who is a supporter of Imperial unification, but bears a great hatred for your Chapter because of what befell his world. He is known to belong to Ionian Veterans.

The main problem I have with these overgrown city pictures is that yes, trees and plants will grow in them, but how the fuck did they manage to grow on the 43rd story of a skyscraper without the building already having fallen apart. How does soil and sunlight even get there?

decayed paper can make for ok soil, and sunlight can break through windows/openings in the wall

also: it's magic, ain't gotta explain shit
