Here begins the wiki for the illustrious campaign "That Ain't Nailed Down (So That Means It's Ours, Right?)", with our Tzeentchian overlord Cornuthaum presiding, and hapless victims Sunhawk, Ladegard and Tiarynn. May the Emperor have mercy on our souls!

Ships of House Tremlett

Flagship of House Tremlett

The Emperors Beneficence

Recovered Adeptus Mechanicus cruiser

Colonies of House Tremlett

Viridian Falls

A paradise world claimed by Lisette Tremlett and the crew of the Shadowless Shark. Contains a cunningly hidden Eldar complex of unknown purpose, wherein several peacefully hovering shark-like creatures of further unknown purpose fly around a sus-an tank holding an armored Eldar.

After the ground-work laid down by the Techpriests of Nu-Alpha was completed, the colony is now slowly entering a period of full activity.

Systems of Interest

Warp-Map of Subsector KEX-171

Viridian Falls

First discovered when the Shadowless Shark broke away from the dread Void-Whale, it has since been made to host the first colony flying the flag of House Tremlett within the Koronus Expanse

Forge-World Nu-Alpha Rho-Phi

Young Forge-World specializing in biological and genetical manipulation and research, they are also the leading authority on xenobiology. Led by the charismatic Fabricator Alchandar Mercar, they have agreed to help House Tremlett colonize Viridian Falls as a reward for returning the long-lost Imperator Titan Dominus Bellorum to the Adeptus Mechanicus. Located roughly between Magoros and Repton IV in the Foundling Worlds sub-sector.
GM Notes

Footfall

A hive of scum and villainy even by the standards of the Imperium of Man, Footfall is nonetheless an excellent place to find specialists in the exotic, arcane or xenotic.

For Reasons Unknown

An unexplored system, so far known only for being the site of the final battle with Ignatius, the stage being the open maw of a gigantic void whale.

Non-player Characters

The Shadowless Shark Crew

  • Bridge Crew
    • Wren Badg, Relief Pilot
  • Navigator's Spire
    • David Thorne, Spire Seneschal
    • Ritzin Damos, Under-Navigator. A young and overly cocky Navigator who believes his talents are greater than they actually are. Actually has significant potential, if Mordecai doesn't strangle the little shite first.
    • Geli Tsinter, Under-Navigator. A stoic female Navigator who does her work uncomplainingly and without fatigue, although lacking in imagination.

The Adeptus Mechanicus

Nu-Alpha Rho-Phi

Fabricator Alchandar Mercar Lord of Nu-Alpha, brilliant geneticist and shrewd businessman. By his authority, the Forge World of Nu-Alpha will provide the mechanical assistance in settling Viridian Falls
Famulous Ysmira d'Zon Famulous to Lord-Fabricator Mercar, she is a xenobiologist and researcher, having shown great interest in the data acquired about the Void-Whale the Explorers encountered at Viridian Falls.
Magos Severin Gearson Commander of the Nu-Alphan space assets, Magos Gearson is extremely heavily augmented. Gruff but reasonable, he is as much naval captain as Magos Mechanicus.
Magos Eta Kurvakin Armsmaster of Nu-Alpha, he is a weapon- and armorsmith of repute and responsible for creating and maintaing the wargear of Nu-Alpha's elite.

Free Adepts

Secutor Martis Alexandra Cardan-Gimbal Knight-Errant of the Adeptus Mechanicus, Secutor Cardan-Gimbal hunts the foes of the Priesthood of Mars - especially Cog-Lord Ignatious, at least before the Explorers finally killed the Heretek

The Imperial Inquisition

Lady-Inquisitor Hilde Kuentz Ordo Hereticus Lady-Inquisitor that co-opted the Explorers into helping her fulfill her mission: To prolong the imprisonment of a nefarious force on the Dead World Tantimorq. Wounded in action, recovering on Malfi.
Katherine Messerschnitt Servant to Lady-Inquisitor Kuentz, she is death incarnate with two power swords. Hyperactive at times, she is unquestionably loyal to her mistress.
Henri du Malfisaz Retinueman of Lady-Inquisitor Kuentz with a complicated relationship with his mistress.
Lord-Inquisitor Castor Drugh Malfian Inquisitor of the Ordo Hereticus and mentor to Lady-Inquisitor Kuentz
Inquisitor Van Vaardelech: Inquisitor of the Ordo Xenos, also a skilled surgeon. Heavily scarred after an encounter with Necron flayers
Inquisitor Soren Chang: Inquisitor of the Ordo Malleus who has a fondness for buzzsaws and branding irons. Also a skilled interrogator.

The Adeptus Astartes

Brother-Captain Callum Masters: Captain of the Storm Wardens 4th Company, arranged a profitable deal for the party in exchange for the Explorers mounting a rescue mission for one of his Squads
Brother-Sergeant Aodh Saunders: Sergeant, Second Squad, 4th Company, Storm Wardens chapter. Leader of the squad the party was asked to recover from the hulk of the Emperor's Beneficence. Master at tearing heads off people's shoulders.
Brother-Corporal Tavish McNeil: Leader of Fireteam Bravo, Second Squad, 4th Company, Storm Wardens chapter. Second in command to Sgt. Aodh

The Adeptus Ministorum

Bishop Elena Koikova: Chief Ministorum representative upon Port Wander, Bishop Koikova is a zealous woman willing to bargain with the agents of Rogue Traders to see the Emperor's cause furthered on both ends.

Imperial Navy

Admiral Theodosius Cromwell: While nominally in charge of the Naval Dockyards, Admiral Cromwell' long and colorful history leads to him being informally the person to see if one wishes to ask the Imperial Navy for a favour. A stern man in his worn uniform and his (mostly salt) precisely trimmed salt-and-pepper beard, he is often blunt and straightforward in manner. He cannot stand to be in the presence of psykers and often distrusts Rogue Trader dynasties, although Lisette Tremlett has impressed him favourably. Often an appointment with him will start with a cup of tea and a long period of silence, during which he examines the petitioner minutely. It is rumoured that he even kept a Throne Agent waiting for well over half an hour in this way... although it is nothing but rumour.
Commodore Adolphus Morgan: Admiral Cromwell's aide, this tall clean-shaven man is easily recognized by his impeccably starched uniform and pinched face. Found striding from one side of the port to the other on his superior's errands, his mild manner belies his status as the best marksman and duelist in perhaps the entire sub-sector.

Footfall

Rufinus Geyr A seer of considerable wealth and station on Footfall, he is a collector of beautiful plants from all over the Expanse. Led the Explorers on the trail of the lost Titan after they promised to bring him a specimen for his collection.

The Monster, The Xeno, The Unknowable

Prince Althoxar the Infinite The fiendish force imprisoned on Tantimorq. Has a certain problem with tenses, and likes to watch the Explorers bleed. Re-imprisoned through the efforts of the Explorers.
Cog-Lord Ignatious Tripartite traitor, Master Heretek, sworn enemy of Mars. Recently killed in action by Lisette Tremlett et al., though Secutor Cardan-Gimbal seems to think that death is nothing but a short impediment for him. Returned to life by the will of Chaos, then slain one last time in the maw of the great Void-Whale by the Tremlett Command Crew.
Unknown Xeno Stowaway: Some form of psychic life, perhaps a fungoid, that utilizes spores. Found in the underdecks of the Shadowless Shark, and was granted passage in a series of deals with previous Tremletts, whereby knowledge was exchanged for sharing the Tremlett's destiny (in the form of a Fate Point). Seems fairly non-hostile, and may be connected to a larger similar organism on an unknown planet.
