>Write in: The old gods (the dreamer cult).
On a distant planet, far out of the reaches, or persuasion of the god emperor lies a new religion, a new faith. Neither worshipping the gods of chaos, or the old dying man, this cult started forming from the shared dreams of people on this planet, and the things that festered within them. They dream of incomprehensible beings, far greater than anything within this mortal coil, and perhaps greater than the chaos gods combined.
I say a Lovecraftian cult would be a cool thing in 40k. Think of the crazy shit advance cultists and huge sacrifices could summon from beyond the stars.

Far from terra on a distant agri world a comet falls, startling blue as it streaks through the sky. Its disinigration in the atmosphere comes with a shining light, as beautiful crystal blue dust rains onto the ground .

A small farmhouse is struck of what remains of the comet. Crashing through the roof, flooring and into the cellar the crystal embeds itself into the ground. A farmer lays by its side unconscious the blast. Slowly the crystal grows its jagged lines in the dirt etching it's way to the man untill it touches him and his eyes turn a dazzlingly bright blue.

These are the words which stayed your hand from Heresy, opened your eyes to the Holy Sacrifice, and set your wayward soul on the Path of everlasting Salvation. Though it has been many millennia since the Messiah walked upon Holy Terra and was nailed upon the Cross to die for all Sin, you know that the Lord Our God is Eternal, and that He watches over you even in the grim darkness of the 42nd millennium. It is your Holy duty to see His Will be done in every world as it is in Heaven, see the Golden Throne shattered for centuries of Idolatry most foul, and see the Heretical servants of the Unholy in Chaos undone.

Despite your innumerable Sins and shortcomings, such is His Wisdom that you, among all others have been chosen, and the Path you must walk is clearer than any cloudless night sky. It is your duty to bring Hope to the masses, usher in a New Crusade, and dismantle the Imperium's hold on humanity, brick by brick, soul by soul! You shall witness the construction of His Heavenly Kingdom firsthand, or you shall be chosen for Martyrdom, and ushered into Paradise! Praise be unto the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit!

Purifying Chaos corruption is some *HEAVY* Warp-craft, and while Biomancy is always an option, it almost inevitably leads to Cronenberg shit and might make mass-evangelizing a bit too easy.

>>3420593

Nah dude we fix body horror not cause it.

>>3420603
True, but healing possibly present underlying spiritual corruption ranges from difficult to near-impossible. Hmm... I suppose Biomancy is fine, but if you want to veer into mutating shit, you'll need to BS some doctrinal justifications.

>>3420615
Not to mention lightning manipulation, which falls under Biomancy's purview and can be pretty badass, even if it's far less stable and symbolic than Pyromancy.

>>3420615
Yeah I see what you mean. I know that this kind of healing is almost non existant in 40k. As health class likes to say the best way to stay pure is through not fucking the succubus in the first place. I'm ok with vision over biomancy I just wanted us to be a healer not mutating dudes.

True, and reversing mundane physical mutations is perfectly possible, it's just that with Chaos-related deformities, there's a near-certainty of a deeply tainted soul, which is a whole other animal. You might be able to twist a Slaaneshi's tentacle back into a semi-normal hand, but you can never undo the effects of a thousand lines of Warp-dust. Not saying that it can't be done, only that it's unheard of, and your hands alone aren't enough. Mercy of God is a valid option, and you can choose it if you'd prefer.

>Lightning is pretty deific desu.

Depends on whether you're going for the God is judging, or God is wrathful symbolism, in my opinion. Different connotations and it's a tad easier to find biblical examples of the latter.

>>3420635

You have been chosen to wield the Mercy of God, in your hands twisted flesh may be made whole and broken bones set right, and should you focus, the lightning of the Lord's Judgment may be made manifest. It is a far greater Gift than you deserve and a burden to bare, for daemons whisper lies into your ears each time you exert your powers to undo the corruption of Eden, and you must remain ever-vigilant, lest they consume you.

> John 1:5 "“And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not."

So you preach to the huddled masses, and so they bow their weary heads in prayer. It has been less than one month since you began to preach The Word unto the inhabitants of the Kabburius Vault, and you dared not pray for a more receptive audience. Many among them are lesser mutants, baring deformities for which the Imperium denounced them, many among them are beleaguered laborers of the nearby Manufactorum, and a handful are gangers who've seen fit to abandon their sinful ways.

All of them were drawn by your Holy Message, that there is a God who Loves them for who they are, that they can be forgiven for what they've done if they accept the sacrifice of the Christ upon Calvary Hill, so many millennia ago, and upon their deaths, go to be with Him in an eternal paradise. Your impassioned tales of a rugged, wooden Cross and a Messiah who died on it for *them* personally, and the whole of humanity resonates with them in a way the tired old preaching of fat priests bidding them to worship a Golden Throne they'll never see never did.

Soon you gathered a humble congregation, some twenty-odd souls enraptured by every word to pass your scarred lips, and then came the doubters. A mob of filthy men mired in a lifetime of unspeakable poverty, their eyes angry that anyone would dare to feed them such beautiful lies, and their souls crying out for something to believe. They held weapons, clubs, knives, and a handful of autoguns, and demanded that if you served a healing God, you would heal the worst among them, a starving Scavvie child whose shriveled arm was twisted and bent backwards at birth.

Some of those in the congregation rose to do battle but you bid them to sit, and asked that they bring the wretched boy to you, for you know that nothing is beyond the God of Nations. You knelt in prayer, laid your hands upon the child's scabbed flesh, and sent your soul out to the Lord Our God. Minutes of deep contemplation passed while the crowd grew restless, but your followers begged them to wait, and so they did, and so they staggered back at the sight of a sudden white light.

Your hands were wreathed in radiant lightning, and your mind was possessed by an instinct not entirely your own as you sent the electricity deep into the boy, shattering his bones, then piecing them back together in a proper assemblage. When God's Mercy left you, it was as if you had fought a hundred campaigns in as many moments, and you collapsed, half-dead from the exertion but the child arose with a straight arm, and the eyes of those in the crowd were filled with the rapturous, timid joy of the hopeless who've been given True Faith.

> [CONT.]

we could hole up in the lower parts in the hive , convert the mutants and gangers to start a rebellion on the gise that god is the emperor , we are a saint and the hive governor or the planetary governor is a heretic, them convert til we achieve the Lord's glory

>>3421262
Not a single one to follow held doubts, and even if you aren't so eloquently spoken a preacher as the robed men in the Imperial Temples, your passion is none the lesser for it, and every single one in that crowd remembers what they saw. They hang onto your every Word and beg to touch the Good Book, but they weep, for you do not permit them, for it is the last of its kind, and must be preserved by any means necessary.

Every single man, woman, and child there has given his soul to Christ, and you estimate twenty-seven of them are given unto the rabid, furious and passionate praise that might get someone labeled a madman in the 21st millennium, but in the present day is nothing but a sign that the Holy Spirit rests in their souls. They are eager to spread The Word and begin the Sacred Work of tearing down the False Imperium, but you hold them in check, for if you are to bring about the Heavenly Kingdom, you must determine a proper course of action. Your Church holds 440 Throne Gelt to its name, enough to feed a family of five for a year's time, but a mere pittance otherwise, and there are 81 in your congregation, but you estimate 120 could be jammed into the side-tunnel where you extol the praises.

If you are to spread The Faith, you must first go about expanding the Church or acquiring another, and if you are to convert anyone who hasn't seen the miracles which God's Mercy works, you must improve your Oratory Skill to an Adequate standard. Perhaps most importantly of all, you must find a way to print more copies of the Holy Bible, and transmit your Holy Message to the teeming masses of the deep-vault, who need the Lord the most.

>>3421280
That's not a choice for Doctrine, that's a list of what the Church believes at the moment. You can propose additions, but actually changing Doctrine requires scriptural justification, or one hell of an argument.

>>3421283
For that, you'd need a printing press, plenty of paper, and a handful of fanatics to crew the thing. You have no idea where one could be found but you've already begun memorizing the Bible, and with your level of dedication, estimate it'll be another half a year before you can recite it verbatim.

>>3421283
we could make the orange bible from dune or "retranslate" the bible to Gothic and adapt to the times ( ala new testament) by adding a more martial god ( Jesus joining the Roman empire and becoming the emperor and being crucified by "the enemy , etc)

Adding books onto the Bible is a huge no-no, but there's nothing saying you can't start writing another.

It does not, but when the Church gains many more members, more controversial ones may require some convincing. Community service is a great way to improve your Reputation, but distributing food will take a significant chunk out of your Treasury each week.

So you preach unto the people, and so they begin their Blessed Work. You teach the congregants that if they are to give themselves unto the Christ, they must live as Brothers and Sisters in Christ, and put the needs of others before themselves. Each moment your tongue confesses a new Truth, compelled by the Mercy of God, and such is His Mercy, those sitting crouched upon the dust-strewn floor of the church are reduced to tears, for they have never heard such Words, and they are repentant, for to this day, they have had no family beyond their blood, and they have lived selfish lives, seeking only to render lesser good unto themselves, rather than Greater Good unto the God of Nations.

Only a handful live in the church each day, the overwhelming majority of the congregation dwell else-where, some in the cramped tunnel slums of the mid-vault, and most nowhere but the nooks and crannies of the tunnels. Still, the Holy Spirit compels them to contribute to their own lives and do good unto their neighbor, and so they do, sheltering the abandoned in their own homes, giving scraps of their hard-won food to the even less fortunate, and laboring day and night to clean the trash thoughtlessly littered almost everywhere the teeming masses of mankind can be found.

The impact they make is of little difference, but to your humble congregation, the subtle change around them means everything, and soon, word of what the Guardsman's Temple does for others begins to spread. Surely enough, curious folk come, in their tens and twenties. They hear what you have to say, and some eleven are moved enough to give their lives to Christ, but most have hardened their hearts, wish the church well, and return to their squalid states, albeit, with very much to think about.

You are immersed in contemplation of the scripture when one of the former gangers enters your inner sanctum. It is a humble affair, with a cot, a small, rusted table, and non-functioning wash basin, no different from any other congregant's chamber, but it is a Gift from God and you treasure it all the same. He bows his head in reverent respect as you do the same, then he speaks of what his intrepid questioning has discovered.

Listening with an open ear, you consider what he has to say, and thank him for his service. Another twenty minutes of satisfying his theological thirst come to pass, and another twenty more of prayer that the situation of his cousin, who suffers a tumor in the left eye will recover in time. The newly converted thug understands that miracles are rare and precious things, but asks if you can do something to heal him, all the same. You promise him you'll ask God about it, and do what His Voice tells your soul.

When he leaves, it's with tears in bloodshot eyes and you consider the rumors he's uncovered. Apparently, a smuggler by the name of Kwarth has a set of slightly-used tunnel excavation equipment he's willing to part with for 2,500 Throne Gelt, 2,200 for you, since the church-goer's gang was once a frequent client. Alternatively, you could purchase a set of hand-tools for 500 apiece, and set a volunteer to chipping out the steel and then the stone, but such a project would take months, rather than weeks, and the end result would be crude at best. 2,500 is certainly a significant sum, and taking the mere 40 you've received from a weekly tithe into account, you have a great deal to think about.

Come to think of it, best of three for the soup kitchen roll, considering the context.

I thought I couldnt roll for soup kitchen as I already stole two.
Here is my soup kitchen roll

I just want to prep for our holy Templars

>>3421807
It's fine, I'll take your third roll, but only this once.

>>3421808
Praise be. Advanced weapons or no, you could do some serious damage to some of the smaller gangs in the tunnel, because advanced weaponry or not, a mob of zealots nearly 100 strong is a significant threat.

wait if we make contact with these small gangs we might get some armed and "trained" converts.

>>3421834
Always a possibility, but convincing hardened gangers to embrace Christ's Sacrifice is far more difficult than the downtrodden vault-dwellers.

sure but most of those would be hardened gangers are/used to be downtrodden vault-dwellers who his rock bottom. and here we come a bringing a religion that literally forgives there wrongdoings, instead of turning them into servitors or corpses.

>>3421852
True, that's why it's possible. You can click a post number to quote it, anon.

Rolled 25 - 20 (1d100 - 20)

I'll roll once.

Praise be, the healings and soup kitchens are an enormous success, which isn't hurt by the fact that you exorcised a daemon before the whole of your congregation.

>>3421888
>>3421894
Currently 520, as per >>3421878, but the small soup kitchen costs 30 each week it's maintained, leaving you at 490.

>>3421902
oh ok. how about this.
>give a speech about how the one true God shall save us all with his holy light and how he will forgive us with a smile at the end. this should inspire some adherents to become fanatics

>>3421918
I feel kinda meh about turning people into fanatics. Those with normal lives are more useful and helpful rn. Making them throw everything away for the faith is wasteful

>>3421852
We could try but I feel like we also have a chance of getting shot by a cynical ganger who thinks we are just another chaos cult trying to lure them in

>>3421924
I agree. just some fanatics pad our defense. you know since we still are a heretical cult in the making. but we should do this after we do what you said.

>>3421932
We have 31 fanatics we dont have the arms and armor to equip even them. I would argue we need to have the money to even start supplying them before considering to get more.

>>3421934
yeah your right how about this we try to find a cheaper way to improve the church and gain some gelt from the tithe

>>3421939
after this if we can we enlarge the church and then try to requite some gangers

>>3421939
That's what I'm thinking we should gather enough to get those manual sculpting tools and either commission a sculptor or get one of our own if they are skilled enough to work on making a proper church out of the stone. It will take a long time but it will be an excellent foundation for the future and larger congregations.

While we are at it we can continue raising out reputation in the community and gaining more faithful which will increase our tithe.

>>3421948
Yeah gangers will mean free weapons so they are good to convert

how about we start selling holy water. it will be cheaper than the imperium's seals and will get a quick buck.

>>3421955
We could try, no idea if it would work
Also sounds like it may gain the ire of the authority.

We should start connecting the state of 40k to the prophesized end times: demons and devils killing and maiming, and people being devoured by sin. Maybe we could give the people of this grimdark universe hope, and the thought of rapture to holy and beautiful heaven in the clouds. Later on, we could even say the emperor is the beast, or the anti-christ (unless we were super powerful, I would say making enemies is a bad idea though).

>>3421966
now that's a good idea but lets not denounce the entire empire yet...yet

OK so what do we what to do lets vote.
I say we should wait until we have the funds to get the hand carvers tool and expand then we should try to recruit some gangers

>>3421963
The people who would buy holy water would only be doing it out of anxiety or superstition anyway

> James 4:7 "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."

The Will of the Everlasting God is clear, you have been given the hands to heal this child, and so you shall, so that none of the Church shall hold doubt of Christ's Salvation in their hearts. When you explain what you intend to do, the former ganger is ecstatic, and on the next sermon, for you do not know whether it is Sunday on Holy Terra, and preach four times each week to compensate, he fetches his cousin for you, and when she is brought before the altar, your soul plunges into depths of grief.

The left side of this child's skull is swollen, leaking black bile and yellowed pus, as she moans in pain and can barely move, such is the agony the visibly cancerous mass's throbbing never-ceasing inflicts. Staring into that child's clouded eyes, one a pale, sightless white, and another choked with tears, you are tempted to succumb to great despair, but you rebuke the sin of doubt in the Name of the Savior, and bid the child approach.

So she does, before the congregation, and she lays her head in your lap, left side facing up. She is almost a skeleton, rail-thin and riddled with maladies besides the tumor, but looking into that single eye, as the congregation begins to sing one of the hymns you've taught them, you witness a flicker of purest hope that pierces through your mourning darkness, and reminds you of the purpose for which you have been ordained.

Closing your eyes in meditation, you utter prayer unto the Lord Our God and feel His Mercy begin to move through you. Slowly, the electric force of the Holy Spirit fills your soul, and begins to flow through your veins, arcing out to strike the child's tumor with furious intensity. This is a far more difficult task than restoring the child's arm to a healed state, and were it not for the absolute knowledge that the Lord's Presence guides your hand, you have no doubt in your mind that you would have failed.

As it is, the poor girl screams, contorting in agony as the sickness is purged, the tumor popped, and flesh knitted back into place, and unaware though you may be, the former ganger rose to demand you cease, only to fall to his knees in reverent praise upon the sight of God's Mercy made manifest. Ten minutes of eternity come to pass before the child falls into blessed unconsciousness, and ten more pass before, scar tissue aside, the left side of their skull is the same as their right, and the pain is gone.

> [CONT.]

>>3422036
You rise on shaky feet, lay the healed innocent upon a nearby mat, and turn to address the congregation when a fractal nightmare beyond comprehension assails every facet of your mind, soul, and spirit. It screeches atrocities most foul in ever-changing tongues, sifting through your memories to fill your senses with illusions of your greatest fears, and attempts to twist the healing force within you to its own ends, and in that moment, there is no doubt. You are engaged in mental combat with a servant of the devil, and enraged by the light of the Christ that has illuminated so many, it attempts to possess you, and devour your soul.

But little does the fiend know that your soul is held in the Hands of God Almighty, and before His Glory, this daemon in all its terror, is less than nothing. At the remembrance of this Sacred Truth, the fear begins to fade, and the powers within you begin to crackle and surge in furious denial of the unholy. Your mouth opens as your eyes glow, and you fall to your knees, howling the praises even as your noise bursts in blood, and body convulses with the sporadic flashing of the Holy Lightning.

Gathering everything you are about you, an intangible shield of the spirit is formed, and through it, no daemon may reach your soul. "THIS I KNOW IN THE NAME OF THE LORD OUR GOD ALMIGHTY, JESUS CHRIST, HEAVENLY MESSIAH! GET THEE HENCE DAEMON! IN THE NAME OF THE SAVIOR WHO DIED UPON THE CROSS, I REBUKE THEE, I DENOUNCE THEE, AND I SAY UNTO YOU AGAIN, GET THEE HENCE!"

A discordant screech sends the hairs on your skin straight, as the daemon recoils, faced by such sudden and fierce resistance. Some vestige of it remains in your mind that you force out through a monolithic effort of will, and as it is thrust back into the Immaterial Hell from whence it came, it hisses with a dozen voices, each at a different pitch. "Huuumaaan, know this, the HOPE that thine cult spreads hast gained my master's attention, and lest they submit to Him, in time they shall be expunged from this frigid waste in a thrashing, pulsating maelstrom of CHANGE that cannot be contained!"

You have no patience for this monster, and tell it as much, rising to your feet and frothing in the effort. "GET. THEE. HENCE!" A thunderclap is heard as it leaves your body and you collapse, dead. Or so it appears, for moments later you force your eyes open, and stand before the shocked church, merely nearly dead. Two words pass your lips before sudden slumber takes you without warning. "Praise be..."

>>3422040
Some two days later you reawaken to hear that the sight of you crackling with lightning and shouting thunderous praises as twisting, prismatic, and otherworldly light attempted to wrap itself around your throat, only to be banished, on the cusp of a visible miracle did much to bolster the faith of the multitudes. Everyone in the church converted on the spot, over a dozen more fell into zealous faith, and rumors of what you've done have begun to spread far and wide throughout the mid-vault's tunnels.

You don't care, and demand to see the child with an urgency leaning on anger. Once you've embraced them, the healed gap-toothed smiling girl, and the ganger who brought her to you, the tears of joy won't stop flowing, and you think the Lord Our God each waking moment for the chance to wipe the sadness from their eyes. Reaching into a sudden burst of inspiration, you have a profound realization.

The reason so many innocents suffer so is their lack of proper nutrition, for they can't even find the opportunity for labor to feed themselves on anything but what rats they can catch and garbage they can scavenge, but a solution comes as clear as your old home-world's days you wish you could remember. If the church united itself, and spent a portion of its Tithe earnings on distributing soup to the starving, at no cost save ten minutes of the gospel, there is no reason that anyone needs to go hungry, or unaware of the Messiah's Love!

Merely two days after exorcising a daemon from yourself you are in the church, stirring a murky broth and scooping ladle after ladle into eager scavenger's chipped bowls. They hang onto your every word with gratitude once unthinkable to one so Lost as yourself, and over the course of the remainder of the week, dozens more are Found. You do not seek out the injured, the crippled, and the maimed, but when you see them leaned against the wall, languishing at the back of the line, or begging another man for soup because they couldn't stand to walk through the tunnel church's steel door, you do not leave them be.

A handful are healed without ceremony before the remainder of their peers, and all but one converts on the spot, the last of which simply flees into the eternal night rather than face his guilt. Rumors of what you've done are spreading by the moment, and should your work, soon, you suspect, they'll take on a life of their own, and transition into legend. Praise be!

Fanatics aren't necessarily incapable of living normal lives, they're just obsessed with their religion, view every single thing through a religious light, and will begin evangelizing their religion at the drop of a hat. Longinus Petrus himself is a particularly intense fanatic, but willingness to charge into lasfire with a hymn on their lips aside, fanaticism can definitely be a mixed bag. Make of that what you will.

>>3422049
I say we should find a cheaper way to increase the size of the church

>>3422044
> Focus on finding a cheaper way to go about expanding the humble church!

Can we teach a self defense class, maybe after every other sermon? If not, maybe it's time to turn some fanatics into preachers and lecters

>>3422064
We need to increase our follower capacity before we develop more recruiters

>>3422064
Given your experience in the Imperial Guard, you're likely one of the most dangerous men in a dozen tunnels. You certainly can, and instructing the more charismatic fanatics to preach is always a possibility but keep in mind, until you can get a printing press going, you'll only have one Holy Bible and that may hamper your follower's efforts to evangelize.

>>3422070
At the moment, a handful of the congregation have to stand outside and listen to you shout, but there's no violence whatsoever over who gets to hear you preach.

>>3422072
If we start trying to recruit gangers that might change if we have no room

>>3422044

>Offer self defense classes in case other people get any funny ideas, but emphasize that it is for /Self-defense/

>>3422080
If the any of the imperium catches wind that we are a heretical cult that is teaching people how to fight in the open we might have some issues let's find a cheaper way to increase the size of the church

>>3422075
True, but you'd need to convert most, if not all of a gang if you wanted to begin preaching in one of their larger safe houses.

>>3422078
That it would and likely give Emps an aneurysm when he hears of it

>>3422080
Another week followed by five months.

>>3422080
We should still do this though but not just after sermons it would be to crowded, do it on one of the 3 free days

>>3422086
You can always offer self-defense classes in secret, if you were so inclined.

>>3422088
That's fair so that's way we should make our church bigger

>>3422094
Not to mention, turning violent gangers into (relatively) upstanding citizens would do wonders for your Reputation.

What happened to the rest of our Regiment I wonder? Afaik most retired IG regiments dump all the troops on one world

Or are we a sole survivor type?

>>3422145
"You were an Imperial Guardsman, one of trillions to fight and if need be die for the Imperium, but by some miracle, you managed to survive your deployment and retire onto a "safe" world, but the memories of what you did and were forced to do consumed you, and you began to contemplate ending your life when you discovered a True God to fight for." I guess it's the sole survivor veteran type (or maybe the others in the regiment can be brought into the faith, as guardsmen of the new prophet)

>>3422145
There were several tens of thousands left out of tens of millions, God you remember the screams and they were given the chance to select their own vault from a carefully chosen list of the most crime-infested with a guaranteed spot in an upper-vault slum and manufactorum administration or VDF command, their choice. (Vault Defense Force, PDF equivalent) There are undoubtedly several hundred here, but there are tens of millions in even the smallest vaults, and after being separated at the transport, you'd be hard-pressed to find them.
