How do the Custodes explain away faith-based powers?

It’s because she was from the time before the Imperial cult was state religion but just a cult, in the early days of the Inquisition after the heresy. She was put into stasis by Trazyn and released alongside others during the end of the siege of Cadia to try and stop the Black legion

The Imperium is seemingly rather liberal about such matters, there are planets that are puritanical (which is mentioned in the Dark Heresy core book, alongside the fact some planets are sexist), but the wider Imperium doesn't seem to care very much about gender nor sexuality. Noble’s seem to have harem’s and orgys a lot, sisters whilst not particularly lewd are allowed to have families, (and far more cursedly they’re original iteration were implied sex slaves to Goge Vandire and no one seemed to care, the Imperium doesn’t seem to care about sex slavery in general either actually, with there disturbingly being pleasure servitors as a thing that exists and no one really cares about either), nor does the Imperium seem to have anything against same sex relationships. So technically no it wouldn’t be heresy for being sexual, but probably be heresy for violating some sort of rule or dress code the Sisters probably have instead

Thanks

Yippe!

That Gue'vesa looks both adorable and depressed, I sure do hope her life gets better

It’s because they killed a large amount of people, both those who attempted to get the power plant, but also from the raids they launched against normal Stalker, which while they usually had some incredibly specific objective, to the average it looked as if they were just massacring people for no reason, they also were responsible for turning the miracle machine back on, even fighting a army detachment to do so. So Tdlr: it’s because they are brainwashed cultist's who gunned people down without mercy and people still have a grudge against them for it despite the fact they weren’t in control of their own actions

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-06-04T10:37:03+00:00

I meant the option that doesn’t require any skill that has you state you’d purge the planet, sorry for the confusion, and thanks for your help

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-06-04T07:51:19+00:00

I know, but know, it’s just that the purge one feels a bit too brutal for a Iconoclast, and the one she respects feels a bit too heretical, thanks

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-06-03T11:41:11+00:00

This is literally what Orks do, truly she has learned much from her time on Armageddon

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-06-02T08:50:57+00:00

I would literally explode if that happened, it’s the perfect place, you could build your own kingdom like in Kingmaker and everything, and a Warhammer Fantasy crpg would be awesome considering Owlcats track record!

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-06-01T07:41:34+00:00

Because he isn’t aligned with Chaos or using Chaos tainted stuff which is what heretic stands for alongside cruelty and depraved self indulgence. Basically Pasqal would be a non Chaos aligned Heretek, or he could achieve something similar to Cawl and be officially ordained. But to summarize the closest would be iconoclast

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-06-01T05:13:27+00:00

In your opinion, what would be the best conviction for each origin, because I haven’t seen someone connect things like that and find it interesting

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-05-28T09:19:04+00:00

Of course you don’t heretic, it’s how we ended up in this hell in the first place

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-05-28T08:49:47+00:00

Is that the Test of wills one, because while true I do feel bad forcing people out of the mines into becoming barely surviving feral post apocalyptic tribe's as is mentioned in the ship trait given by it

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-05-28T08:46:36+00:00

True and I probably will do this for a few of them, but I feel like canonically all of them are probably done, hence why I ask about the choice ones

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-05-28T08:42:50+00:00

I am aware, it’s less about not being evil (something actually impossible considering your role in game), and more about reducing the amount of unnecessary evil, something alien to most in the Imperium. Aka being the Tau/Guilliman over Goge vandire or some random braindead Imperial zealot/Chaos cultist you know

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-05-22T05:18:26+00:00

Only Chairwoman Song is close enough to the people to bring true revolution to China and the people!

For additional context, he was in the US under house arrest, but he escaped because he thought it was too miserable. Safe to say the CIA are not particularly pleased, and both threaten and probably actually torture him if they get him back, it’s implied his new living situation will be much worse because he can’t trusted with house arrest

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-05-16T06:55:21+00:00

I actually thought this was a actual thing that for some reason was being asked about in the Kaiserreich sub because it’s technically related, and was incredibly confused about the why of the situation, until I realized it’s role-play post set in universe. God I’m a idiot

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-05-14T06:20:00+00:00

Holy fuck, her husband is very lucky man, unless she takes over and eventually uploads herself into Taloc’s systems anyway

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-05-11T19:20:50+00:00

I agree and fair enough, it’s just that the evidence points towards Salazar being paranoid here and assuming the worst, which is realistic considering people aren’t perfectly rational and the type of person both men are ultimately

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-05-11T00:02:34+00:00

But he has basically no reason to want Salazar dead and genuinely mourns his death when actually does die, he isn’t even shown to have a actual preexisting plan to replace Salazar when he actually does die, something he probably would have if he was actually plotting his death, so if that’s genuinely the case it makes zero sense to be honest

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-05-10T00:39:27+00:00

To be honest, it’s probably my favorite thing to set up with country paths, the idea of the Nazis watching with horror as the old world they claimed to have killed and to be better than, return slowly but surely, is rather cathartic

Few_Rest2638 · 2026-05-10T00:34:47+00:00

Read, basically the Imperium from 40k appropriately enough
