Luitpold Barnabas Vorhale is the third son of Laertes Timeo Vorhale and Drusilia Haekler-Vorhale, respectively Officer of the Watch and Dorsal Gun Capitain of the Chalice Battlecruiser '''''TRIUMPH OF SAINT DRUSUS'''''.
As it is customary in the Imperial Navy, the young child, as well as his four brothers and two sisters, served on board of the battlecruiser bridge as a cabin boy, as well on the dorsal gun macro-battery with his mother. It is there, among the thousands crewman toiling in the sulfurus fumes and the roaring thunder of the gigantic canons, that the young child knew what he wanted to be. he wanted to be the one pointing this majestuous weapons, the one ordering them to shout in anger and smite His Ennemies to smithereen.
Once old enough, he was sent to the Officer scholam in Port Wrath. It was harsh, for the Imperial Navy asks a lot to any one who want to serve Him among the stars, and the futur officers are not exceptions. But Luitpold did his best. He studied hard, especially geometrics, for a good gunner should know how to calculate a shell trajectory by head. But being a good Master of Ordnance is not mere calculus : it is an art. One must evaluate the trajectory his ennemy will take, discern the truth among the millions lies he will feed the sensors, ensure his crew will reload the canons perfectly and point them with the utmost precision, and weave a deadly schem of fire with shells to leave no escape.
An art, a craft that Luitpold learned, polished, and finally, mastered.

Luitpold spent all his career at the head of a gun battery, at first, on the very ship he was born - 5th Port Broadside Canon-, then the Lance Prow Gun-Captain of the Firestorm frigate '''''THE NAMELESS SAINT''''', and later, her Master of Ordnance.

Then, thanks to very good records, he was promoted as the Master of Ordnance of the Lunar Cruiser '''''SIRIUS'''''. For many years, it was he who launched and guided the volleys of the famous ship during her patrols in the Koronus Expanse. The '''''SIRIUS''''' is a very old ship, who served well in the Battle of Gethsemane during the Gothic War of 1436151M41; her crew is the very best of all Battlefleet Koronus. There, he honned and quenched his skills in battle against orks, eldars, pirates and reavers. His career was promising...

But, one day, all changed. In 811M41, the '''''SIRIUS'''''alongside the '''''GETHSEMANE''''' received and answered a distress call from a Mechanicus Convoy in the Cauldron. They were under attack from a strong pack of pirates backed by the Ruinous Powers.
Once more, Vorhale's volleys were lethal, and both cruisers were obliterating the opposition. 'Alas, '''''GETHSEMANE''''' 's crew, still green according to the Navy, advanced too much. A dying Reaver ship boarded immediately the '''''SIRIUS''''', vomiting all his crew, aiming for the ship's bridge.

It was very, very close. The ennemy breached the bridge, and in the decompressive explosion that followed, Luitpold was the only officer still able to take command. He did defend the bridge gallantly before the reinforcement arrived, but was heavily wounded. The ship surgeon thought he was lost... When the Magos in charge of the convoy offered him a cyber-resurection, in a sign of good faith for the rescue of his fleet.

It was painfull, and very weakened, Luitpold took almost three years to recover. And his recovery was too slow for the Imperial Navy, who decided to put him away in early retirment, with a shiny medal and a confortable stipend. After all, he was a good officer, but not much more : he was lacking some relations from noble-blood or high level friends.

For a man who only wanted to serve Hil once more, it was harsh. Especially that, once he was fully recovered, he was even more fit than before.

It was when he was almost resigned to spend the rest of his life on a space station, that he was contacted by an envoy, from the Peregrine Dynasty....

HIMS Xanadu

2012-07-19T09:43:21Z

Victus Von Razgriz: /* Ship Mechanics Overview */

[[Horizon's Edge Wiki|Main Page]]
==Description==
Welcome to Trafalgar Auctioneers, the galaxy's specialist in pre-owned starships! Thank you for your inquiry regarding ''glitchglitchglitch'' the HIMS ''Xanadu''.

Once belonging to the Peregrinus Dynasty of Rogue Traders, the ''Xanadu'' was one of their newest ships, acquired scarcely a generation before their disgrace. Unlike the rest of their fleet, that largely consisted of ships of the line or deep-space survey vessels, the'' X-X-Xanadu'', as its name suggests, was commissioned, refurbished, and outfitted for the purpose of serving as a pleasure-craft. In its heyday, House Peregrine consisted of many scores of scions, all plying the interstellar trade-lanes in service to their dynasty, all of them competing to one day inherit the family's Warrant. The ''Xanadu'' was intended to serve as a neutral meeting ground for all members of the family, a sort of ancestral home. Its vaulted halls, the wasted space itself an ostentation, are lined with murals depicting the family's rise to power.

Please study at your leisure this hologram of the ship's trophy-vaults. Containing the plunder of a hundred worlds, this was intended by the Peregrines to serve not only as a treasure-house but also to act as a sort of genetic memory, that all scions of the house could be brought here to learn of their family's accomplishments. Just one example of the fine ''objets d'art'' it houses is this portrait of Lord-Captain Hieronymous "Bentbeak" Peregrinus, a stellar example of Lapidan painting of the Uxtromus school. The way the painter combines hues to create the visual effect of a plasma field playing on the edge of the captain's power-sword is a closely guarded secret of the Uxtromus family.

When the Peregrines fell from grace (see: archive article - The Lark Descends: The Fall of the House of Peregrine), their fleets were scoured by those of their foes. The ''Xanadu'' escaped destruction because of its value and its low apparent strategic importance: Its armaments, while adequate for deterring pirates, are hardly equal to a task force's firepower. It was also spared due to an intriguing design feature: it is equipped with shield-capacitors capable of instantly restoring to full-strength a depleted void-shield!

== Ship's Personnel ==
At one time, generations back, the crew of the Xanadu were the cream of the crop. Spacers from many a vessel or station strove to gain a position on the vessel, enticed by stories of rich rewards, luxurious quarters and a long and happy life. Alas, those days are in the past; the declining fortunes of the Peregrine House have led to cuts in pay and fewer high-quality applicants from outside the ranks of the House's sailors. Nevertheless, the crew's abilities have gone from nigh-perfection to 'merely' competent; many of the current crew were born into the House's service and learned their duties at their parents' knees. 
'''Bridge Officers''' 
'''Crew Overseers''' 
'''Enginarium Crew''' 
=== The Wall of the Dead ===
While much of the vessel is dedicated to the display of the Dynasty's trophies and past leaders, in a quiet alcove off the Emperor's temple is a room that holds only a pair of low benches. On the obsidian walls are carved the names of officers, inlaid in gold, that have died while onboard the Xanadu - by tradition, those names are carved into the stone by the captain they served. Many crew take pride in their forefathers' presence on this solemn monument.

+++++ BEGIN MESSAGE +++++

Dread Captain, at your request I have begun compiling reports on the ship's ecological interdependencies. While actually you didn't request that I do it, Midshipman Gallagher has a hangover and said that if I didn't compile the report for him he'd give me a drubbing with his shock-baton, so here you are, your lordship.

To begin with, I decided to focus on the most noticeable animal on the ship, the dragonnel, which I'm sure you've noticed as a ubiquitous presence on every deck, and which I noticed stealing my lunch while I'm writing this.

'''Description:''' The dragonnel is a six-legged reptile, thought to be from one of the moons of Cetarus IV (which one, nobody can agree on, largely because none of the moons exist any more, as I'm sure you know). Their shoulders and throat are protected by a spiked fringe that projects from their skulls, and their bodies are also heavily-armoured with articulated plates. Their gait is a low-slung waddle that can reach top speeds of about thirty kilometres per hour.

'''Physiology:''' A number of interesting physiological quirks make the dragonnel perhaps one of the most useful creatures on board. They have an extremely robust digestion, their strong claws allow them to climb up sheer surfaces, and perhaps the most remarkable thing is that they can spew vast torrents of stomach acid at enemies. In order to digest some of the barely-organic things that they ingest, dragonnels accumulate excess acids which they store in sacs near their throats, which they release when digestion needs an additional 'kick'. Over time, they've also learned to expel them as a caustic torrent as a defensive or predatory reflex. Some species have even been known to deliberately ingest shrapnel and gravel to make the experience even more debilitating.

Of course, some of our dragonnel-jockeys have been known to feed bootleg promethium to their dragonnels and mount a pilot light under their jaws.

'''Behaviour:''' One of the most interesting quirks about their behaviour is how they destroy their own eggs to ensure each generation stays strong. Whenever a dragonnel lays a clutch of eggs, she will wait till their shells seem sufficiently hard, and then she will fling the eggs at the nearest hard surface; only eggs strong enough to withstand the impact will hatch.

'''Role:''' The dragonnel is used by crewmen all over the ship as transportation, a beast of burden, and they are also reared for their eggs: dragonnel-embryo is a well-loved delicacy, and Gammer Cordite on the macrobattery deck has an ancient family recipe for a stew using dragonnel-embryo that has been known to start brawls.

The '''''SIRIUS''''' is a very old ship, who served well in the Battle of Gethsemane during the Gothic War of 1436151M41; her crew is the very best of all Battlefleet Koronus. There, he honned and quenched his skills in battle against orks, eldars, pirates and reavers. His career was promising...

But, one day, all changed. In 811M41, the '''''SIRIUS'''''alongside the '''''GETHSEMANE''''' received and answered a distress call from a Mechanicus Convoy in the Cauldron. They were under attack from a strong pack of pirates backed by the Ruinous Powers.
Once more, Vorhale's volleys were lethal, and both cruisers were obliterating the opposition. 'Alas, '''''GETHSEMANE''''' 's crew, still green according to the Navy, advanced too much. A dying Reaver ship boarded immediately the '''''SIRIUS''''', vomiting all his crew, aiming for the ship's bridge.

It was very, very close. The ennemy breached the bridge, and in the decompressive explosion that followed, Luitpold was the only officer still able to take command. He did defend the bridge gallantly before the reinforcement arrived, but was heavily wounded. The ship surgeon thought he was lost... When the Magos in charge of the convoy offered him a cyber-resurection, in a sign of good faith for the rescue of his fleet.

It was painfull, and very weakened, Luitpold took almost three years to recover. And his recovery was too slow for the Imperial Navy, who decided to put him away in early retirment, with a shiny medal and a confortable stipend. After all, he was a good officer, but not much more : he was lacking some relations from noble-blood or high level friends.

For a man who only wanted to serve Hil once more, it was harsh. Especially that, once he was fully recovered, he was even more fit than before.

It was when he was almost resigned to spend the rest of his life on a space station, that he was contacted by an envoy, from the Peregrine Dynasty....

Luitpold Barnabas Vorhale is the third son of Laertes Timeo Vorhale and Drusilia Haekler-Vorhale, respectively Officer of the Watch and Dorsal Gun Capitain of the Chalice Battlecruiser '''''TRIUMPH OF SAINT DRUSUS'''''.
As it is customary in the Imperial Navy, the young child, as well as his four brothers and two sisters, served on board of the battlecruiser bridge as a cabin boy, as well on the dorsal gun macro-battery with his mother. It is there, among the thousands crewman toiling in the sulfurus fumes and the roaring thunder of the gigantic canons, that the young child knew what he wanted to be. he wanted to be the one pointing this majestuous weapons, the one ordering them to shout in anger and smite His Ennemies to smithereen.
Once old enough, he was sent to the Officer scholam in Port Wrath. It was harsh, for the Imperial Navy asks a lot to any one who want to serve Him among the stars, and the futur officers are not exceptions. But Luitpold did his best. He studied hard, especially geometrics, for a good gunner should know how to calculate a shell trajectory by head. But being a good Master of Ordnance is not mere calculus : it is an art. One must evaluate the trajectory his ennemy will take, discern the truth among the millions lies he will feed the sensors, ensure his crew will reload the canons perfectly and point them with the utmost precision, and weave a deadly schem of fire with shells to leave no escape.
An art, a craft that Luitpold learned, polished, and finally, mastered.

Luitpold spent all his career at the head of a gun battery, at first, on the very ship he was born - 5th Port Broadside Canon-, then the Lance Prow Gun-Captain of the Firestorm frigate '''''THE NAMELESS SAINT''''', and later, her Master of Ordnance.

There, he honned and quenched his skills in battle against orks, eldars, pirates and reavers. His career was promising...

But, one day, all changed. In 811M41, the '''''SIRIUS'''''alongside the '''''GETHSEMANE''''' received and answered a distress call from a Mechanicus Convoy in the Cauldron. They were under attack from a strong pack of pirates backed by the Ruinous Powers.
Once more, Vorhale's volleys were lethal, and both cruisers were obliterating the opposition. 'Alas, '''''GETHSEMANE''''' 's crew, still green according to the Navy, advanced too much. A dying Reaver ship boarded immediately the '''''SIRIUS''''', vomiting all his crew, aiming for the ship's bridge.

It was very, very close. The ennemy breached the bridge, and in the decompressive explosion that followed, Luitpold was the only officer still able to take command. He did defend the bridge gallantly before the reinforcement arrived, but was heavily wounded. The ship surgeon thought he was lost... When the Magos in charge of the convoy offered him a cyber-resurection, in a sign of good faith for the rescue of his fleet.

It was painfull, and very weakened, Luitpold took almost three years to recover. And his recovery was too slow for the Imperial Navy, who decided to put him away in early retirment, with a shiny medal and a confortable stipend. After all, he was a good officer, but not much more : he was lacking some relations from noble-blood or high level friends.

For a man who only wanted to serve Hil once more, it was harsh. Especially that, once he was fully recovered, he was even more fit than before.

It was when he was almost resigned to spend the rest of his life on a space station, that he was contacted by an envoy, from the Peregrine Dynasty....

Luitpold Barnabas Vorhale is the third son of Laertes Timeo Vorhale and Drusilia Haekler-Vorhale, respectively Officer of the Watch and Dorsal Gun Capitain of the Chalice Battlecruiser '''''TRIUMPH OF SAINT DRUSUS'''''.
As it is customary in the Imperial Navy, the young child, as well as his four brothers and two sisters, served on board of the battlecruiser bridge as a cabin boy, as well on the dorsal gun macro-battery with his mother. It is there, among the thousands crewman toiling in the sulfurus fumes and the roaring thunder of the gigantic canons, that the young child knew what he wanted to be. he wanted to be the one pointing this majestuous weapons, the one ordering them to shout in anger and smite His Ennemies to smithereen.
Once old enough, he was sent to the Officer scholam in Port Wrath. It was harsh, for the Imperial Navy asks a lot to any one who want to serve Him among the stars, and the futur officers are not exceptions. But Luitpold did his best. He studied hard, especially geometrics, for a good gunner should know how to calculate a shell trajectory by head. But being a good Master of Ordnance is not mere calculus : it is an art. One must evaluate the trajectory his ennemy will take, discern the truth among the millions lies he will feed the sensors, ensure his crew will reload the canons perfectly and point them with the utmost precision, and weave a deadly schem of fire with shells to leave no escape.
An art, a craft that Luitpold learned, polished, and finally, mastered.

Luitpold spent all his career at the head of a gun battery, at first, on the very ship he was born - 5th Port Broadside Canon-, then the Lance Prow Gun-Captain of the Firestorm frigate '''''THE NAMELESS SAINT''''', and later, her Master of Ordnance.

Then, thanks to very good records, he was promoted as the Master of Ordnance of the Lunar Cruiser '''''SIRIUS'''''. For many years, it was he who launched and guided the volleys of the famous ship during her patrols in the Koronus Expanse. The '''''SIRIUS''''' is a very old ship, who served well in the Battle of Gethsemane during the Gothic War of 1436151M41; her crew is the very best of all Battlefleet Koronus. There, he honned and quenched his skills in battle against orks, eldars, pirates and reavers. His career was promising...

But, one day, all changed. In 811M41, the '''''SIRIUS'''''alongside the '''''GETHSEMANE''''' received and answered a distress call from a Mechanicus Convoy in the Cauldron. They were under attack from a strong pack of pirates backed by the Ruinous Powers.
Once more, Vorhale's volleys were lethal, and both cruisers were obliterating the opposition. 'Alas, '''''GETHSEMANE''''' 's crew, still green according to the Navy, advanced too much. A dying Reaver ship boarded immediately the '''''SIRIUS''''', vomiting all his crew, aiming for the ship's bridge.

It was very, very close. The ennemy breached the bridge, and in the decompressive explosion that followed, Luitpold was the only officer still able to take command. He did defend the bridge gallantly before the reinforcement arrived, but was heavily wounded. The ship surgeon thought he was lost...

==Wortsnack Loosecruza==

Freebooter Mekboy

Loosecruza is an ork mekboy who was found on the Folorn Hope, they crew decided it was simply easier to let him stay and now he works quite happily, repairing things that break and generally slowly converting the ship to an ork craft as more and more systems feel the brunt of being cannibalised into something new and ugly.

==History==

The space pirate by the name of Wortsnack Loosecruza was once a notorious mekboy for a group of notorious space faring freebooterz who were the scourge of the Foundling Worlds. They plundered from many worlds and engaged the stretched Imperial Navy on numerous occassions, usually making successful raids. Such fame did not put them in good stead with the Ordo Xenos and after years of looting, an imperial strike cruiser was tasked with annihilating the orks once and for all.

Loosecruza abandoned his killkrooza and watched his team burn up in an explosive fireball, stealing the last drop pod from his Kaptin, explaining, "Dat he needed to do repairs on de sparkly trapshun that made de fing go," before hopping in, sealing the doors and blasting off into space. The fated mekboy travelled through the Cauldron, a feat of navigation some Imperial commanders could not manage and entered Winterscale's Realm. Ever since he has employed his services to any rogue traders who might call upon him so long as he gets his share of 'tek' and 'fronz'.

The fated mekboy travelled through the Cauldron, a feat of navigation some Imperial commanders could not manage and entered Winterscale's Realm. Ever since he has employed his services to any rogue traders who might call upon him so long as he gets his share of 'tek' and 'fronz'.

==Wortsnack Loosecruza==

Freebooter Mekboy

Loosecruza is an ork mekboy who was found on the Folorn Hope, they crew decided it was simply easier to let him stay and now he works quite happily, repairing things that break and generally slowly converting the ship to an ork craft as more and more systems feel the brunt of being cannibalised into something new and ugly.

==History==

The space pirate by the name of Wortsnack Loosecruza was once a notorious mekboy for a group of notorious space faring freebooterz who were the scourge of the Foundling Worlds. They plundered from many worlds and engaged the stretched Imperial Navy on numerous occassions, usually making successful raids. Such fame did not put them in good stead with the Ordo Xenos and after years of looting, an imperial strike cruiser was tasked with annihilating the orks once and for all.

Loosecruza abandoned his killkrooza and watched his team burn up in an explosive fireball, stealing the last drop pod from his Kaptin, explaining, "Dat he needed to do repairs on de sparkly trapshun that made de fing go," before hopping in, sealing the doors and blasting off into space.

== SISTER OSNATE HEROUTA OF HIS FIERY WRATH, ORDO SABINE ==

Osnate : hebrew name for "Catastrophe". Herouta : hebrew name for "freedom". Basically, her sister name means "Catastrophe unleashed"

"''Hello sailors ! So I heard the Morale was low here, and there were potential mutineers.. how about we'll discuss that in my room *wink* ?''"
[[File:Sister_Osnate_Herouta.jpeg]]

Born from two Navy officers on a space station which suffered a terrible Life Sustainer breakdown, Osnate was one of the very few survivors, and was sent to the nearest schola progenium. To the great desesperation of her drill abbots, she was a feral, non chaste, swearing, snarky walking catastrophe, smuggling alcohol, drugs and pornography inside the schola. Nicknamed "Bedroom Macharius" by her peers-for she conquered many virgin lands and was stopped only by the complete exhaustion of her brocken men- it is really a Miracle that her presence did not corrupt the other of her promotion, including Ciaphas Cain, Hero of the Imperium!
She managed barely to get away with the worst disciplinary progenia record of the Segmentum : during her many trials, it was certified that many of her pranks where backed by genuine Miracles. Osnate has always claimed to hear His Voice ; she gains many ennemies in the Ecclesiarchy, especially as with her the God-Emperor sounds like a pervert bullying joke.

"''Ciaphas Cain, you say ? Oh yes, I remember him,a nice little fellow I caught once in the gymnase showers. he was real good for a first-timer. We made a pict-record of it and'' '''[REDACTED, BY ORDER OF HIS HOLY INQUISITION. ALL RECORDS EXCEPT ONE OF SAID PICT RECORDS SHALL BE DESTROYED, ONE COPY KEPT IN MY ARCHIVES.
INQUISITOR AMBERLEY VEIL]"'''

She was sent first among a Militant Order, her superiors hopping the reckless young girl will get killed rapidly. It backfired, and soon enough, she was sent in many different orders, usually as a Seraphim, as no Palatine wanted to keep her.
At last, they manage to send her to the Sabine, hoping that savage unconquered worlds will get them ride of Osnate. She found at long last her element : danger, unknown drugs & alcohols to taste, and a lot of people to convert. Though many missionaries coming behind her will facepalm when seeing how she teached & modified the credo.

Osnate, obviously, is not a puritan. though she doesn't trust xenos, at least, she will leave them a chance to proove they are worthy of His Trust, and not fire on sight. She has a very hand-down approach to problems, and she fears not to use her fists. She is at ease as well as on an hostile planet as on a starship, having a knack to find a way to survive almost anywhere. And the Emporer protects her.
If there is booze, fights & booty, she is your girl !

[[File:temple_shrine.jpg]]

Facing the Void on the prow, the Cathedral of His Countless Martyrs is large enough for the whole crew to fit in. this holy place is dedicated to each martyr and imperial saint, though only major ones from the Segmentum Obscurus are named or represented on sculptures.

'''Glorious Deeds & Doppëlbrennt'''

On the marble floor, is carved the name of every rating who served on board. On the columns, are also etched the name of any crew who did heroic deeds. It is usually done after their death, but this prestige is sometime offered to someone alive. Such a person is called a Doppëlbrennt, or “double-engraved”, and is welcome with religious respect by anyone on board.
When someones dies on board, the corpse is ritually thrown to feed the fishes in the Garden of the Righteous. the wicked and mutated -even those still alive- are sent as a sacrifice to the the fiery plasma heart of the starship.

'''The Holy Order of the Watchers in the Dark'''

The mendicant order of the Watchers In the Dark is in charge to choose who must be honoured. Dedicated to Saint Rybel Gorth, these holy men & women wrapped in fireproof scrolls of holy text, wearing ever burning candles on their heads, can not be bribed. They takes care of the relics inside the Cathedral, and walks among the crew everywhere in the ship, preaching, offering blessing, medical cares and postal services in exchange of food & water.

The Vaakumsarboretum

2011-05-24T14:20:05Z

Victus Von Razgriz:

The complete name of the Arboretum is Vaakumsarboretum Grüsen-Gewächsnymphenburg.

A true marvel of bio-engineering, the arboretum is both a magnificient garden, and the source of most of the food and clean water on board. Any person on board can visit the public garden. The arboretum is very cramped, but judicious use of light & trompe l’oeil give impression of infinite space.

The ceiling is in plasteel, allowing to see the void, but it includes many projectors, that can give the illusion of a tru sky. Many grav plates are used here, allowing floating plants and fountains, reversed waterfalls, and to create biomes very closed to each others.

The most popular sections usually are :

'''the Garden of the Righteous''' :the entrance and main way to the Temple Shrine, as well as the graveyard . Fresh rose & cherry petals fly permanently there, in an everlasting spring full of blossoming flowers and –mechanical- butterflies.
There is a large lake, the Lake of judgment, where the corpses are thrown in ritual burials. It is perhaps a coincidence that one of the major protein hydroponic farm lies just under said lake.

'''Harashim hanging garden''' : an oriental-like garden, with floating fountains and trees, surrounded by turquoise & gold ceramics. You can know if someone was there as he will still smell jasmine, honeysuckle or rose a few hours later.

[[File:Vabbi.gif]]

'''the Winter garden,''' always under snow and frozen, used extensively by people looking for a calm place to meditate.

[[File:winter_garden.jpg]]

'''the Underwater garden'''. Alguas, corral, fishes surround visitors. Prestigious guests are even allowed to go underwater and to fish.

'''The Forbidden Forest'''A quarter of older gardens have been reserved to the Lady-Captain, to create her hunting preserve. There is even a stable to allow venery.

[[File:forbidden_forest.jpg]]

Hidden under the public gardens, lies the true garden: an hydroponic tropical jungle, where barley, hops, rice and wheat are produced intensively under fruitrees. Bio-enginereed bees ensure pollination of all plants on board and produce honey. Water from all the ship is purified trhough specifics bacteria and algua, converting wastes to proteins. Even the garden above is useful, rejuneving soils, producing fertilizer for the crops, and helping renewing the air inside the whole starship.

With these crops, the Forlorn Hope produce its own alcohol. Available to the crew - expensive enough so they can't drink daily - are light beers and just before combat or great ceremonies a shipbrewed schnapps.

In the Forbidden forest, there are special crops of grappes, dedicates only to produce wine and champagne for the Rogue Trader, as well a special liquor, the Warrantmeister. the recipe is a secret well kept, using 150 different herbs, as well as solid gold leafs.

The Melodium

2011-05-24T14:17:03Z

Victus Von Razgriz:

'''The Melodium'''

Music is very important on board of Forlorn Hope. Shanties can be heard everywhere, and vox systems broadcast marches, waltzes and hymns in every corner. The very heart of this system lies right under the Bridge.

[[File:Koenigliches_opernhaus_berl.jpg]]

It is Forlorn Hope Opera & Concert House, with its plasma & steam powered 100 m high organ. Only the Rogue Trader or the Ship Confessor can play the organ, or give such a privilege to someone, as the very ship itself vibrate when played.

[[File:Strasbourg_orgue.jpg]]

It must be signalled that the Mechanicus priests on Forlorn Hope are surprisingly not insensible to music. Most of them are indeed member of an obscure Mechanicus Sect, the Ordo Vox.

Each Sunday - the day dedicated to the Omnimessiah-,techpriests and magos challenges ritually their peers. Binary rap battles, 8-bit concerts, metal rock-out, automated music constructions challenges are common and always spectacular.

Forlorn Hope Bridge

2011-05-24T13:45:36Z

Victus Von Razgriz:

[[File:Forlorn_hope_bridge_plan.jpg]]

The bridge is a technological marvel, built in circles. From there, one can benefit from a stunning view of the whole prow and the surrounding void by large Gothic arches. Enclosed between by powerful cogitator units, the bridge is a giant astronomical clock. The ground is transparent to allow anyone to see automatons and the perpetual motion of gears. Banners, ex voto and censers are hung or float in the air.

The first circle shows the day, according to both the administrative and traditional calendar, as well as the saint of the day. The second circle consists of twelve pits, surrounding a central core. Each of the twelve pits is devoted to managing one aspect of the ship, but also symbolizes a month in the year of the traditional calendar, and a sign of the zodiac. In order, starting from the prow:

- ''TIMONIS'': the helm.

- ''NAVIGATIO'': Navigation & Cartography. It is linked directly to the Navis Blister through a tunnel.

- ''ASTROPATHICA'': long distance communications, but also in charge of the hexagrammatic protections on the hull, and the Geller Field, as well as Witch hunting on board.

- ''AUGURARIUM'': Etherics, Augers, Vox & Sensors.

- ''AERONAUTICA'': The control tower and liaison with Forlorn Hope Attack crafts. It is these officers that are in charge of the reckless small craft pilots.

- ''MEDICAE'': in charge of health, both mental and physical. From this post also works in secret the Master of Whispers and its propagandists.

- ''ENGINARII'': Engineering. The first access to the Main Cogitator and the Realm of the Mechanicus.

- ''COMMISSARIATUS'': Commissariat & Stewardship. In charge of supplies, inventory, and human resources.

- ''COMMERCIA'': Business & passengers. They are the ones who look after the needs of passengers, and also the underlings of the High Factotum, managing the Rogue Trader’s assets.

- ''FIDES'': Faith. In charge of the Morale on board, they ensure that His Creed is worshipped adequately in every corner of the Ship.

- ''ARMATA'': Security & Tactics. They control sergeants-at-arms, ship provosts & armsmen, boarding troops, and any army carried on board.

- ''ORDINANTIA'': Strategy & Ordnances. The very brain of the ship in a battle, calculating & plotting moves & broadsides of the ship’s weapons.

The main tower centre stands at the center of the twelve pits. At the top lies the main Astronomical clocks. It indicates Terra’s ecliptics, the moon fullness, sunrise and sunset, and more prosaically the hour on board. A secondary dial showing signs of the zodiac is moving upon it, and includes the command post for the Lord Captain’s retinue. there are also many holo projectors, allowing to project pictures and information in the very air above the whole bridge?

The Captain throne sits directly on the needle indicating the hour and the sun position. The First Officer throne sits on the needle indicating the state of the Moon. The Axis is hollow, allowing the rogue trader to climb to his command throne, an to access directly to the Profit Express.

''To have a better idea of how it looks like, you have the schematic at the beginning of this section. for the colors and how the bridge move, it looks like this :''

'''The Observation Dome'''

In the middle of the Arboretum, can be found a humongous reinforced glassteel dome, directly giving a view of the Void.

It is different of the ceiling above the rest of the gardens as the glass is covered with special transparent ceramics filtering lights & radiations coming from the ship. It thus allow a perfect observation of the surrounding stars & space phenomenas.

Many crew spend their free time here to observe the majesty of the Void. There is a dedicated team of astro-cartographers working here, cataloguing stars, celestial phenomena.

Osnate : hebrew name for "Catastrophe". Herouta : hebrew name for "freedom". Basically, her sister name means "Catastrophe unleashed"

"''Hello sailors ! So I heard the Morale was low here, and there were potential mutineers.. how about we'll discuss that in my room *wink* ?''"

Born from two Navy officers on a space station which suffered a terrible Life Sustainer breakdown, Osnate was one of the very few survivors, and was sent to the nearest schola progenium. To the great desesperation of her drill abbots, she was a feral, non chaste, swearing, snarky walking catastrophe, smuggling alcohol, drugs and pornography inside the schola. Nicknamed "Bedroom Macharius" by her peers-for she conquered many virgin lands and was stopped only by the complete exhaustion of her brocken men- it is really a Miracle that her presence did not corrupt the other of her promotion, including Ciaphas Cain, Hero of the Imperium!
She managed barely to get away with the worst disciplinary progenia record of the Segmentum : during her many trials, it was certified that many of her pranks where backed by genuine Miracles. Osnate has always claimed to hear His Voice ; she gains many ennemies in the Ecclesiarchy, especially as with her the God-Emperor sounds like a pervert bullying joke.

"''Ciaphas Cain, you say ? Oh yes, I remember him,a nice little fellow I caught once in the gymnase showers. he was real good for a first-timer. We made a pict-record of it and'' '''[REDACTED, BY ORDER OF HIS HOLY INQUISITION. ALL RECORDS EXCEPT ONE OF SAID PICT RECORDS SHALL BE DESTROYED, ONE COPY KEPT IN MY ARCHIVES.
INQUISITOR AMBERLEY VEIL]"'''

She was sent first among a Militant Order, her superiors hopping the reckless young girl will get killed rapidly. It backfired, and soon enough, she was sent in many different orders, usually as a Seraphim, as no Palatine wanted to keep her.
At last, they manage to send her to the Sabine, hoping that savage unconquered worlds will get them ride of Osnate. She found at long last her element : danger, unknown drugs & alcohols to taste, and a lot of people to convert. Though many missionaries coming behind her will facepalm when seeing how she teached & modified the credo.

Osnate, obviously, is not a puritan. though she doesn't trust xenos, at least, she will leave them a chance to proove they are worthy of His Trust, and not fire on sight. She has a very hand-down approach to problems, and she fears not to use her fists. She is at ease as well as on an hostile planet as on a starship, having a knack to find a way to survive almost anywhere. And the Emporer protects her.
If there is booze, fights & booty, she is your girl !
