It is the 41st

Millennium

For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor has sat

immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the master

of mankind by the will of the gods, and master of a million

worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a

rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark

Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium

for whom a thousand souls are sacriiced every day so that he

may never truly die.

Yet in his deathless state, the Emperor continues his eternal

vigilance. Mighty battleleets cross the daemon-infested

miasma of the warp, the only route between distant stars,

their way lit by the Astronomicon, the psychic manifestation

of the Emperor’s will. Vast armies give battle in his name

on uncounted worlds, but for all their multitudes, they are

barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat from aliens,

heretics, mutants, and worse.

To be a man in such times is be one amongst untold

billions. It is to live in the cruellest and most bloody regime

imaginable. Yet you are not just any individual—you are a

Heretic, a follower of forbidden gods and dangerous

schools of thought, cast out by the rulers of the

Imperium and their cursed corpse-god for the calling you

have chosen. And yet both glory and revenge can be yours

as you tread the path to greatness and take your place among

the champions of the Dark Gods themselves!

countless worlds and beyond, and as long as a Heretic draws

breath he will never be free of these most hated agents of the

God-Emperor. Despite these perils, for those who can survive

long enough, glory and power awaits and the chance to live

free from the shadow of the Imperium.

P r e -G e n e r a t e d C h a r a C t e r s

The following sample characters have been speciically

designed for the B r o k e n c h a i n s preview adventure that

begins on page 16 of this booklet. Four different characters

are provided, although this adventure can accommodate

larger player groups by adding additional Chosen or

Renegade characters.

WhAT IS BLACK CRUSADE?

B l a c k c r u s a d e is a roleplaying game in which

you take on the role of a renegade from the

Imperium—a follower of dark gods

or master of forbidden powers.

In your thirst for power,

revenge, or carnage you

have chosen to walk the

path to glory, beseeching

the Powers of Chaos for

their favour so that you might

rise up above those around you and

become one of their favoured few. It

is however, a path that is fraught with

peril, and for every mortal that rises high

enough to bask in the light of the gods

a million more die screaming, their lesh

twisted and their minds broken by the cruel

malevolence and pitiless indifference of the

very powers they hoped to consort with.

The gods and their ickle ways are far

from the only dangers a Heretic must

contend with, and as outcasts from the

Imperium, much of humanity counts

itself as your foe. The Inquisition is

especially relentless in its hunt for

Heretics across the Imperium’s

Character Name: Asrodel the Fated Player Name ________________________________________

Character Type: Chaos Space Marine Archetype: Forsaken

Character History: Asrodel is a Chaos Space Marine known for both his martial pride and honour, and his thirst for victory at any

cost. He believes he is destined for greatness, and this drive to succeed left him at odds with his previous warband. During an honour

duel with his warband’s champion, Asrodel found himself losing. Rather than accept defeat, he drew his bolter and shot the champion

at point blank range. The remainder of the warband was incensed at this breach of their warrior code, and Asrodel joined a wolfpack of

pirate reavers to lee retribution. He was captured during a skirmish with Battleleet Calixis.

P l a y i n G a s r o d e l t h e F a t e d

As a Forsaken, Asrodel stands apart even from other Chaos

Space Marines. However, he tolerates anyone, including

human Disciples of Chaos, who do not challenge his

martial prowess. He is not incredibly friendly, but is more

than willing to work with the other Heretics to survive.

Asrodel is at odds with his own nature. His overwhelming

desire is to become a peerless warrior, second to none with

bolter and blade. However, he also wants to win, and if it

appears he might lose, he’s more than willing to cheat.

Character Name: Nina Black Player Name ________________________________________

Character Type: Human Archetype: Renegade

Character History: Nina Black began life as the third child of Merrick Black, a powerful Rogue Trader. Upon his death, the Black Warrant

went to Merrick’s eldest child, Orrik. Orrik and his brother Marcus consolidated the power of the Black Household, leaving Nina with little

more than a pittance and minor retinue of servants. Incensed, Nina made a dark pact with a powerful daemon: her soul for her brothers’ deaths.

Orrik indeed died, consumed by warp ire in his very bedchambers. However, Marcus survived the daemonic assassin, and frantically sought

aid from the Inquisition. Throne Agents captured Nina and sentenced her to interrogation and execution.

P l a y i n G n i n a B l a C k

Nina Black is a charming and charismatic leader. Though skilled with

a blade, her true weapons are her words. She can motivate, persuade, or

command even the most reluctant underlings.

However, beneath her pleasant exterior lies a dangerous and calculating

woman obsessed with revenge. Nina is not above fooling her companions

as to her true motive, which is always revenge against her brother and

the Imperium that betrayed her. However, she will work with others to

accomplish her ends.
