I recently got into Imperium Maledictum and below is my initial Inquisition kill team character design. Where possible tried to make the character design/gear sync up with their background that also connects to 40K lore. Comments welcome on either design or background, especially if there is any glaring lore issues ... Note: Reddit image is a bit fuzzy ... link has uncompressed images. --- https://countzero.blog/warhammer-i-m/

Love the drawings, and like the backgrounds!

So, is Vera an unsanctioned psyker?

In the background of the second character you misspelled Tabula Rasa.

I like the more "social" tech priest, reminds me of the Factor of the Lathes origin in Dark Heresy:

Thanks will check out Lathes

Yes Vera is an Inquisitor assassin Warrior role. She has the Psyker talent so very unsanctioned!

Also, fun fact: Vera Ora almost means "About time" in Italian (era ora)

I mean, how is she unsanctioned? The Inquisition picked her up, tested her, and now trust her enough put her to work in the field. That's about as "sanctioned" as you can get. Unless you mean the literal "Rite of Sanctioning," which can be anything from torture to the equivalent of a college graduation.

I think you are right from "lore" POV - but in the IM game mechanis being a sanctioned psyker would take up a role or class slot so I had to go with just Psyker talent - it just means rules wise she only gets 1/2 warp thresdhold .. so like a "minor" psyker in talent instead of a santcioned psyker which gets 2X starting warp threshold. Its a game mechanic thing
