And a Rogue Trader’s influence is her most coveted weapon – for who would dare go against the business partner of one who holds a Warrant of Trade, the gracious one anointed by the Emperor, and sent Jae Heydari’s way by providence itself? That is, of course, if the Rogue Trader chooses to add a person of such controversial repute to their retinue.Īt the Rogue Trader’s side, Jae will set out toward the distant shimmering stars that hold innumerable riches and are home to multitudes of foes. Jae will not pass up any opportunity to curb the evil tongues of her enemies and keep their long knives at bay. A seasoned dealmaker and adept mediator of commerce with the enemies of Humanity, Jae has earned the great respect of many in the Footfall underworld and incurred the much, much greater hatred of her less successful rivals. Jae Heydari, a precious jewel of Footfall, a link in the glittering gold chain that is the Kasballica Mission among Cold Traders, a woman of countless talents and myriad mysteries, is truly the cream of the scum of the Koronus Expanse. Once you’ve been branded a criminal and a lowlife, being less than the best of them is not an option. Or they may not – if they have shied away from delving neck-deep into xenoheresy if they have hesitated to put anything and everything at stake, from their silken underthings to their very lives. Eventually, after years, they may reach the gates of freedom. They make questionable alliances and sell away their souls, one shard or shred at a time, for the tiniest of opportunities. They climb over the heads of their less nimble-fingered, less sweet-spoken rivals. They have their own path to follow, a relentlessly upward path. There are some who will happily let the foundations of whole worlds come crashing down for a chance to live on their own terms and not take orders from the soulless machine that is the Imperium. These scoundrels living outside the confines of Imperial law are known as Cold Traders. But even out of this riffraff, there have risen a bold and persistent few who are willing, for an immodest price, to venture forth and fetch treasures that the poor of heart would dare not touch. Smugglers, thieves, murderers, they crawl about like so many insects they huddle together one moment and tear at each other’s throats the next – for their eyes cannot see the truth, and their hearts are filled with only rancour and avarice. There, in that twilight, dwell the most pathetic dregs of society. Stake your claim.The light of the Emperor – may His grace rest upon His abject servants – is a most radiant light yet the brighter it shines, the denser is the dark swarming of shadows at the edges of His vast Empire. You stand at the threshold of unlimited opportunity. Your mandate is to go beyond the borders of the Imperium, to explore the unknown reaches of space, to seek out riches beyond measure, and to risk all to gain everlasting glory or eternal damnation. The lure of the unknown draws you toward a wealth of possibilities: ⢠Explore the uncharted regions of the galaxy ⢠Buy and sell entire worlds ⢠Battle pirates for control of valuable trade routes ⢠Discover the ruins of an alien civilization, the first step on a path towards a legendary prize⦠To survive is to face even greater challengesâand to wield even greater power. Your wits, luck, skill, and courage will be tested to their utmost limits. Foul aliens, pernicious raiders, and even other Rogue Traders stand in your way on the path to greatness. Such a course, however, is often fraught with peril. A Rogue Trader who can wrest profits from a dangerous universe through luck, cunning, or sheer force of will enjoys something few humans in the 41st Millennium even knowâa life of adventure and true freedom. Renown and riches reward the bold, but the unwary find only anonymous deaths. Vast fortunes await on the edges of the galaxy, if you and your fellow Explorers can muster the courage to find and claim them. In Rogue Trader, you can explore the universe of Warhammer 40,000 like never before. Warhammer 40,000 Roleplay expands into new territory with Rogue Trader, a new roleplaying game experience set in the grim darkness of the 41st millennium.
