Return From The Undiscovered Country

It is the year 811 in the forty-first millennium. You are the least and youngest child of Lady Valerie Aubenziter VIII, Rogue Trader of House Ferlorihn, and their boon companions. Lady Valerie and the best of those she had remaining chose to act to preserve the waning fortunes of the house by pursuing a single last, tenuous hope.

As her last child, the one never expected to need to rule, you were left behind as something akin to insurance. Should your mother fail, and your older siblings perish alongside her, it would fall to you to retrieve the sacred and legendary warrant - a document over ten thousand years old, and do what must be done in the name of the house.

Lady Valerie and her eldest children - a son and a daughter - along with the last of her remaining faithful companions set out into the unknown reaches of the Koronus in command of the three best ships left in the family fleet. There has been no contact for some time.

They departed in 806.M41. Now, five years to the day, you and your boon companions remain as the last hope for the salvation or destruction of the house. One ship remains of the once-mighty house fleet. Emden, a Tempest-class Strike Frigate.

This is your responsibility: To journey into the unknown, to learn the fate of your mother, brother, sister, and their companions, to recover the warrant, and to return House Ferlorihn to its lost glory. You and your companions will either succeed beyond all hope, or perish ignominiously in the unmarked void.

Can you and yours return from the undiscovered country?


This is a Rogue Trader game using The Liber Imperium fansplat/modification of the Fantasy Flight TTRPG games. I request one person to play the house's last scion.

This is not a story about heroes.

It is a story about making the best of bad options. It is a story about people who are willing to do what they have to do to survive. About people who are not afraid of the darkness within their souls, but rather will embrace it and the strength they can glean from doing so.

This is a story about those who might become heretics or hereteks or who already consort with foul Xenos. You may still have light to shine in the darkness, but it is your light and not the Emperor's.
