First thing's first, what is DtD:40k? It's awesome and anybody who says otherwise is a heretic.
Second: Here are the books we're going to be using.No homebrews; I'll have enough on my plate as-is. Despite the fact that this is my first time GMing anything, I'll allow any homebrews as long as you get them approved by me first. Where does one find homebrews? Here, for one.
Third: Post characters here after I've checked them over. Going to be a more-or-less standard start, so 6-4-2 primary-secondary-tertiary dots for characteristics, 8-6-4 dots for skills, exaltation, alignment, class, 600 free XP, 7 dots for backgrounds but can't go over 3 in one, yadda yadda yadda. See page 10 and onwards for details, although the 3-dots max in backgrounds is a house rule. If anything is at all confusing, feel free to hit me up (on steam, naturally); I can walk you through character creation and/or generally answer any questions you have.
My only rules are:
-'Rule 0,' as it is called. You should all know what that is. If you don't, check to make sure you aren't living under a rock. For those who don't, it's not so much a rule as it is a statement of the obvious: I can do whatever I want because, y'know, I'm GMing.
-Don't be a dick. Yeah, so no attempting to cause a total party kill or deliberately murdering your fellow adventurers. Basically: don't worship Malal.
As long as you keep on the 'good' side of the line as delineated by these rules, things are 100% cool and you can be as awful a psychopathic ninja cannibal cultist or whatever IC as you want.
