In this quest, you will be playing as the marines of a chapter that will be a result of rolling several d100s. The result of these rolls and how the players feel that all the aspects would fit together will influence the specifics of the quest proper, particularly the type of mission that they end up deployed upon.>Progenitor (1 roll of a d100) >Founding (1 roll of a d100) >Reason for Founding (1 roll of a d100)

Ordinarily, this gland allows for the eating of poisonous or otherwise inedible foods, but something has happened to it to make it extremely more active than it otherwise is supposed to be. What is the specific result that occurred?
>Attitude to Mortals: 45 - 50 (Values) = -5 This scale has it that the lower the value, the higher regard the chapter has for regular mortals. The lowest ordinary value is that mortals need to be protected at all costs, but by going even lower than that, the Chapter's marines have an even higher regard of mortals than that. What is the specifics of this attitude?
>Codex Adherence: 10 - 50 (Values) = -40 The lower the value of Codex Adherence, the more rigidly the chapter sticks to the Codex Astartes. The lowest ordinary value is that breaking the rules of the Codex is punishable by death, but this roll has gone below even that. What is the effect on this in regards to the Chapter's mindset towards the codex?

>>5876967 Or maybe we honor and love baseline humanity as the creations of the Emperor, and do everything in our power to reduce casualties and deaths (and therefore we loathe abhumans even more than normal). Probably this comes at the cost of combat effectiveness since we’re so determined to avoid needless deaths. Basically our chapter is playing on hard mode.
As for the Preomnor defect - maybe due to its hyperactivity, our marines have a small chance every year to develop an insatiable desire to consume toxic or inorganic things? Like super-pica. Or alternately, the marines have a small chance to develop a terminal wasting disease that will kill the marine over a decade or two

>>5876941 >Mutation The Preomnor gland has tripled in size and has now a sack that produce poison and it now requires in the space marine daily diet, the integration of no small amount of poisonous and inedible foods on top of the edible foods they need to eat. This means that the chapter has to increase and diversify production of food, and keep in check that there is no lack of it in their logistics during campaigns or travel. If they need it but haven't enough with them, they will no doubt need to buy it or forage for it during their campaigns. If they cannot have it the marines bodies will begin to suffer with ever stronger, lethal and constant convulsions, until death. Due to the larger gland the space marines spit acid, has turned in to a colored blood-purple virulent poison that they produce in larger quantities than before (and that has been used by the chapter by applying it on their weapons and ammo, or using it directly in melee when without helmets), their bodies are also further immune to poisons than other marines.
>Mortals In case civilians are at risk Evac operations will immediatly begin, and if its not possible to send them safely in vaults, fortified cities or spaceships, organized fortified square camps will be established in safe zones far behind the battle lines (here food, shelter, water, clothing, heaters and medical aid will be provided, alongside imperial priests for improve the morale and a garrison of marines and armed chapter serfs). In case civilians are already at risk rescue operations will begin immediately, the chapter ready to assault and crush the enemies of mankind. Done that the next phase will be to start land convoys or aerial/teleportarium extractions, or in case of neither establishing a chapter FOB and create a fortified position for defend civilians and do battle against the enemies of mankind. In peace times, the chapter often helps worlds around both in administration and construction, and directly provide aid to the masses. If deem a noble house, or any other government bodies across the imperium unfit to rule, they might act against openly and from the shadows (this will either end between something like a soft coup with a local that has the chapter vision, or full forced replacement with someone not local installed by the chapter that is their friend already). At war instead the chapter will not denigrate mortals (inform themselves about them prior to their first encounter if possible) and instead collaborate fully with them during strategy meetings, during battle tactics and by providing all the help and support they can give, alongside coordinate in battle properly between eachother be the PDF, Guard, Sisters of Battle etc.... Their own chapter serfs are well treated, given good education, equipment and training, their opinions heard and respected, many of them good friends and acquaintances. Their world is very well ruled and they make sure is a great world for mankind in all aspects.

>>5877179 >Codex The codex is followed step by step. Marines begin to ready it regulary from when they are recruited. Everyone in the chapter has a copy of it, pages to all of it are written everywhere be on a weapon, the wall of a ship, vehicle, monument, building and so on. The chapter has session of public and private reading of the codex both in peace and war time, and in their homeworld is considered an holy book. A marine prefers being stripped of armaments, excommunicado, lost of a limb or death to not follow the codex actions.

>Faith Guilliman is venerated and honored through the entire chapter just like the codex. In the chapter homeworld, the local Ecclesiarchy has put Guilliman right under the Emperor in terms of religious importance and the Primarch has been put above anything else. Has such is not uncommon for mortals here to give a pray to the Emperor and then one to the Macraggian Primarch. Roboute is considered much more than just Primarch and Father, but holy saviour, holy reformer and an holy great hero of all the imperium. Macragge is considered holy just like Terra, and the dominion of Ultramar is considered the greatest of examples of governments inside the Imperium and one that must be maintained and make greater. The life of Guilliman, his tactics, his ideas, his beliefs and his deeds are deeply studied by the marines of the chapter. The chapter must follow the path of the Primarch, and attempt to emulate him for the sake of the Imperium and chapter. Just like Macragge they will make sure their homeworld shines throughs the galaxy and shapes around it a dominion of peace and prosperity. The marines of the chapter must become more than just great soldiers and warriors. They should see to be also tacticians, diplomats and stewards. Time to time, new marines might request the right of pilgrimage to Ultramar to the chaptermaster. To see it, to see Macragge and lastly the Primarch body in stasis it self is considered a great honor. For gain it the marines must have proved themselves gaining great honor and glory for the chapter.
When their mutation of the Preomnor Gland happened, it was considered a divine sign from the Emperor and the Primarch. Indeed, since it happened it is studied and experimented upon regulary by both the chapter Apothecarium, Forge and Librarium alike. New diets for the marines with new poisonous and unedible foods, are tried and created for see what effects they could have on their poison. Then they are catalogated in a great vault in the chapter homeworld, were many many vials of poison are placed. Comparisons and mixes here are then done with many bought, taken or created poisons and venoms. The new ambition of the chapter, added to their other ambitions, is reaching such mastery of the poison that they might do the impossible.

I think our posts so far fits well even with a feudal world. Several of the charts lean towards generic answers, so after the rolling phase is done, we're going to have a voting phase to iron out specifics. Speculation now will create a set of listed options in addition to a Write-In option.
For instance, if on the Artifacts roll you end up with a Tank and 3 suggestions are made on what that Tank could be, those three will be listed as express options when the vote comes around in addition to the ability for people to Write-In yet another version that could exist.

>>5877298 >Feudal World The chapter homeworld has been transformed through much work and dedication from the feral world they received of many human primitives tribes, in to a feudal world of civilized organized realms were the teachings of the chapter, their vision, their faith toward Roboute and codex have become part of the very fabric of the medieval society from culture, to religion, to military.
>Tithe/Feudal Obligation To be called by the chapter in their service is the greatest reward given. Even becoming the lowest position of chapter serf apprentice is considered a great honor. To enter in the ranks of the chapter means everything : every squire, knight, man at arms or warrior levy dreams to enter in their service, to fight by their side, to be them.
>Close Combat With the nature of the homeworld, the ultramar main combat doctrine shifted to close combat. The recruits that join the chapter have trained day after day all their lifes in using primitive steel melee weaponry : such has swords, axes, maces, spears, lances, halberds, flails, longswords and so on. When they become astartes these skills, become even more refined and lethal. This said the chapter would never forget their roots, the codex or the life and deeds of Guilliman so learning to use and train with ranged weapons still remain.
>Shatter the Foe Much like charges of chivalry, powerful sudden strikes on important and critical locations/points of the enemies of men are considered the best approach to war. This ensures to break their enemies sooner, and make sure they can provide safety and support to mortals be civilians or allies. The marines must be trained and educated a plenty, for reach the requirements for ensure this doctrine obtains great victories. Their coordination and skill must be sharpened like a blade.
>Medical Aid The greatest serfs of the chapter (while they have many different roles : like cooks, crafters, armed chapter serfs and so on), are their great and honorable Great Order of Medicae. Here many nobles, scholars, monks, nuns and even less literate village healers hope to enter. This men and women receive great education and even combat training (since they might find themselves near the battlefields), in a large academy with an attached hospital built near the chapter fortress monastery. Here they receive a full education of the medical arts from the human body, to different diseases, to surgery and vaccines. And of course the chapter marines poison and astartes biology. Alongside this a greater introduction to the imperium and the galaxy, and many examples of aliens and alien corpses.

Anyway
>Urban/Human Ruins/Xenos Ruins (I guess we will have to decide which specific ruin but for the purpose of speculation i say human)
The homeworld of the chapter is not one would first think of, when feudal world is said. It is a sea of old concrete, steel, glass and much more advance materials of ancient times invaded by fauna and flora, and broken here and there by the movements and activity of the planet through time. Here the primitives tribes of humans hunted and foraged living like barbarians. The chapter once they found a good position on the world, decided to take a great ruined structure, rebuilding it and expanding in their own fortress monastery. Creating a blend of imperial and old.
>Stewardship - Mortals rule mortals, but according to our rules Such monumental reconstruction was seen has a return of the ancients star lords, by the primitives human tribes. This proved useful has it allowed the chapter to guide and shape this tribes, in the civilized feudal kingdoms that now spread across all the continents and that completely follow the chapter laws, vision, faith and codes. Each of this kings and realms, kneels to the chapter and answer to it in the name of the God Emperor and in the name of the Primarch Roboute Guilliman.
>Special Equipment Being given this world proved excellent, for the chapter not only because they could fullfill their duties and ambitions even from here but because the homeworld granted the chapter to find some old cracked vaults with powerful weapons in them. Yet another divine sign of the God Emperor and Roboute, holy savior, reformer and hero of the imperium.
>Fleet The fleet of the chapter is of respectable size and powerful, our arrival in the sector of our homeworld was noticed by friends and foes alike. The ambitions of the chapter can be achieved with such worthy war fleet.
>Chapter Strength Just has Roboute wanted and just how the codex says. The chapter is in excellent conditions for do war.
>>5877438 Maybe we can have another older enemy ? It would make sense for me frankly. Especially if is dark eldar or chaos.
>Farsight Enclaves The splitted smaller xeno empire from a small xeno empire. This newcomers think they can enter the chapters sector and end their ambition. Fools, let our armies meet in battle and test their strengths against eachother.
>Allies Fellow Astartes, its only natural to be allied with another chapter.
>Allies 2 The men of our homeworld are worthy warriors and our allies by faith and culture. They would fight with us until their death

>>5877451 >Sword This sword is one of our chapter artifacts and has accompanied us from the founding crusade to these days. It has killed and cut down many eldars, traitors, heretics, unworthy, mutants, demons, orks and tau's alike during its use.
>Shield This shield was until the chapter lost it always with the sword artifact, the champion wielding it the image of a undefeatable ancient warrior. Excellent in attack and defense ...... one that could not be defeated. Until it happened. Losing such piece of equipment is a stain on the chapter, it must be recovered.
>>5877463 >Grevious Eldar Craftworld Casualties The chapter managed to apply perfectly in this monumental glorious battle the codex and their combat doctrine, inflicting great losses in all the critical points of the eldar craftworld deployed forces, thus destroying their cohesion, discipline, leadership and morale ensuring a complete total victory for mankind and making the craftworld eldar completely retreat and cease all their operations in that sector. The chapter has still many trophies and looted eldar equipment from this battle.
>Founding Crusade The beginning of the chapter was glorious, and like the Primarch they found xenos worlds, conquered them, and left behind many human civilized worlds in the name of the imperium.
>Major Failure What we did there was no dishonor, but proper appliance of the codex and it aligned with what Roboute would have wanted. The arrogant and evil aliens deserved such treatment, though with such decision during that battle many of our battle brothers died and in it our champion of that time perished while our artifact shield was lost. Regardless the words of this other chapter remained in the ears and mouths of idiots. The chapter must demonstrate the opposite, and remove such public offense.

I can't speak for names or colors but I think a good idea for a chapter symbol would be a stylized Nehushtan. The cross shape gives it a connection to crusaders and the snake entwined on it makes it a bit similar to the rod of Asclepius which goes with the mutation and focus on medical servitors

>>5877536 What about:
>Void Adders >Cobalt Asps >Python Knights >Scaled Paladins ----
Also, the sword and shield items should obviously be mythical snake-themed - "Chapter Master's Fang" and "Chapter Master's Hide". The powersword can inject poison into a large target with a special button on the hilt and the Hide contains a powerful suite of antitoxins and healing stuff to assist the wielder.

>>5877514 Beside the speculations i already made :
- Psyker Specialization of the chapter (biomancy, pyromancy etc...)
- Description of chapter capital/fortress monastery (i have placed my simple description), personal assets/territory on the homeworld if any (poison vials vault idea, the only spaceport and factories in the world, Medicae Order great academy-hospital, big church to Emperor and Roboute etc...)
- Further description of Feudal Humans of Homeworld (do we want them under kingdoms and kings like i put forward, or more similar/inspired to the chapter and ruled through orders of knights)
- Additional Old Enemy (could be tied up easily with the defeated craftworld eldars, or something more malevolent. Or make it double, defeated craftworld eldars and something more malevolent. The Far Sight Enclaves being main enemy is a bit odd for such old chapter)
- When the chapter gained the homeworld (and why the place is feudal from this long if it was given from a long time. Could be they lost their original homeworld, or weren't assigned one until recently due to possible internal foes in the imperium despite their excellent rep... jealous people exist. Or other reasons like being all lost in the warp for a real long while and then arriving at the world assigned to them)
- Maybe writing a bit about 3 chapter major heroes for tied them to founding crusade, eldar victory and big defeat. Plus making current chapter heads or just for now the current chaptermaster. Name generators can help. Proposals :
- First Chaptermaster, a son of Ultramar nobility. Noble, brave, kind and charismatic ultimately a great example of the chapter virtues and set down many chapter traditions.
- Eight Head Librarian, a native of the chapter homeworld, his mastery of tactics and psyker powers gave an edge to the chapter for win the battle against the eldar craftworld
- Eleven Champion, a long time veteran this wise, just but proud warrior ultimately fell in this battle against aliens and here the chapter was accused by other marines of dishonorable actions

They know how Chaos would infiltrate you, and you know how Chaos would infiltrate them. Mock battles where both of Chapters refine their abilities to control the battlefield, them in trying to force non-Codex situations while your Chapter keeps the battlefield in line with the Codex's strengths. The Codex doesn't cover Tyranids, so maybe getting a duty to watch the Farsight Enclaves so you can spare men to keep an eye on their Areas of Operation so they can deploy their full force against Tyrannid Incursions.
Alternatively, you both ran into a Marines Malevolent-like Chapter or two before, and you both hate them infinitely more. Or both of you really hate the Tyrannids (them from history, you from them being outside the Codex) and that ended up being a strong common ground.
I suppose it will all depend on how you ultimately roll with the why behind your strict adherence to the Codex. Guilliman worship leading to strict praise of his works? A Chivalry code that is of prime importance because of the value of Honor? That the Codex was designed to restrain Transhuman arrogance that the Chapter thinks is the real cause of the Heresy? All possibilities that could alter the relationship.

Alright, Now that the rolling and creation of the chapter is finished, what happens now? Do we get onto our mission? And if we do is it a one-shot? Or is it not? And if not, then what exactly is the plan forward after the mission itself is complete?(Can we go to the Jericho Reach, either as part of the Chapter as a whole, or as members of the Chapter and the Deathwatch?)

We're going to behaving a couple votes to nail down the particulars of the Chapter, stuff like the Chapter's name, name of their Homeworld, name of their Battlebarge, and similar things to stuff like the precise nature of your Hyperactive Preomnor Gland and what the Ruins of your Homeworld are.
Once a couple votes have gone through and that all is decided upon, you will get an array of missions derived from that fluff where you will command a squad of Battle Brothers, which may vary depending on the specifics you vote on. If say, you vote on the Local PDF being the forces of your Homeworld, you might get an option related to having to hunt down some of the dangerous wildlife leftover from when the planet was a Feral world, whereas if the Local PDF is voted to refer to ones across the sector, you might get a report of some Tau poking around in the outer reaches of a star system and you need to figure out what they are doing.
Over the longer term, it might turn into a quest for an artifact. Whether that will be the lost Mastercrafted Shield or something else will come about as events unfold.

>>5877704 The chapter was deployed on a great battlefield that had a sizable imperial city at the center, alongside the Axiom Hawks and the PDF and imperial guard forces. The tyranids were advancing in a great horde pushing forward and they had managed to broke in the city and broke the lines of guard and PDF. Then the chapter stopped that push by striking ar key weaker points of the horde, killing important tyranid forms and slaughtering their main front. The chapter soon after this action started to come down to aid the civilians, with also many aerial transports arriving filled by different supplies and their chapter serfs of the Medicae Order ready to provide medical aid and much more. Other marines instead started to aid, support and reorganize the demoralized and broken PDF and Guard forces. All if this was under the eyes of the Axiom Hawks that until then had operated with their stealth. Seeing the mortals happier and full again of resolve and zeal even after what happened, changed something in the Hawks. And so they properly joined together with the chapter, PDF and Guard in the proper defense of that city utterly destroying the tyranids forces.

Its built like a sun, a great vast circle broken by large pointy edges. The walls of the great building, are thicker like no other structure in the world and richly decorated both inside and outside with ancient scenes of work and war, and of course the heritage of the chapter, and many dedicated to Codex and Roboute. An array of powerful guns, artillery pieces, turrets and missile batteries rises on top of tall towers and the walls of the fortess. Inside it the chapter keep has vast training grounds and barracks, a librarium, a forge, a large apothecarium, the hall of chivalry (a great hall for celebrate with much space has possible feasts and triumphs.

>The city of Thebatium Magna Immediatly near the chapter fortress monastery, is the heavily fortified city of Thebatium Magna. This city pride it self to serve the chapter first and being their door to all of Ouroboros and galaxy. It is quite heavily fortified, defended and more modern than the rest of the world. Here the chapter has rebuilt from a broken tall tower of ancient times made of beautiful metals and glass, the Azure Great Temple of the God-Emperor and Holy Savior, Reformer, Hero Roboute Guilliman. This temple is the main religious site of the world and also were the chapter chaplains live and work. The city also boasts a spaceport, a tournaments arena, a few factories and the great academy-hospital of the chapter serfs illustrious Order Medicae. The city is considered holy peaceful neutral ground by the kings of Ouroboros, one that shall never be claimed by them. It is ruled by a council of the city noble families, and has a prince/ss representative of each realm.

The northern realm, home of knights with greate crests on their helms, wielding greatswords and long spears for war. It has a mildly more colder climate than the rest of Ouroboros but still quite warm for agriculture. Here the old urban view is broken a bit by mountains and tall trees, allowing locals to mine and cut wood.

>>5877597 - 1th Chaptermaster Maximis Ticodian, Loyal Liberator of the Sector Ibthus and our Founder. His deeds and skills are legendary, what he accomplished for the Imperium was fundamental and granted us great honor and respect. Thanks to him we have such good traditions maintained just like the Primarch wanted, and just like the codex says. Without him we would have never become a chapter that cares for mortals, ensuring their safety and prosperity or that strives forward to follow the Primarch example.
- 8th Head Librarian Didaceus Tarcherius,Exceptional Tactician, Dutiful Steward and Teacher, Master of the psyker energies. The victory he ensured the chapter would gain was a masterful example of the chapter virtues, the importance of the codex and the skill level the chapter had reached in using their combat doctrine. Forever an hero of our chapter and sector.
- 11th Great Chapter Champion Lysimathio Chronanus, Enduring Tyrannic War Veteran, Slayer of untold numbers of Xenos and Heretics. His defeat and death by the hands of the eldars was a tragedy for the chapter, and he will be forever remembered by us. Still even if the chapter was accused of dishonor, his final battle was magnificent, with a mountain of dead xenos surrounding his corpse at the end.
>>5877711 - The 9th current Chapter master is Catius Cordian, a Stoic Strategist, Honorable Knight, Pious Lord and native to the homeworld. He has continued the development of Ouroboros, while continuing the mission of the chapter and following the ambitious path of their Primarch. The search for the ancient artifact shield continues even during his rule.

>>5877831 >>5877964 Some smaller Chapter culture bits that might be fun:
1) there’s an informal contest amongst the brothers to develop the deadliest venom. Toxicity correlates weakly with age, but truly dedicated brothers can compete with their elders via careful experimentation and the right diet. There are rumors that brothers with deadlier venom are favored for promotion…
2) Brothers coat their combat knives with their venom for added killing ability.
3) Initiation is a snake-hunt through the decaying urban landscapes of Ouroboros, seeking the enormous yearling spawn (15m in length?) of the Titanoboa native the world. Aspirants need only collect one of the beast’s massive scales and carry it back alive - scouts seeking full brotherhood must hunt and slay one in single combat.
3) Lightning strike tactics are often supplemented with biological warfare and plumes of neurotoxins; some grenades, weapon shells and even drop pods have been modified to spray aerosolized poisons

Also sure 15m for Titanoboa, this said due to the nature of the chapter i think the Chapter would make sure to properly train, prepare and educate all aspirants and scouts about the Titanoboa. They wouldn't just throw them at the danger i think, but make sure they understand what they are going to do.
The beasts themselves will be cunning, agile and strong fully adapt at living in the ruins of Ouroboros.
>>5877964 - The 14th current Great Chapter Champion is Achad Iasandar, Paragon of Virtues, Shining Example of Knighthood and an Expert Medic. Achad has a profound hate of xenos, of all the marines in the chapter he is the most vocal to bring war to them. When not talking about this, he is an exceptional marine of the chapter well liked and well know through Ouroboros and the Sector.
- The 12th current Head Librarian is Elad Dolemus, an Unyielding Psyker, Renown Diplomat and Superb Warrior. Elad when becoming Head Librarian used the position, to create good lasting relations with the locals the chapter saved. An admirable effort that has begone to repair in small part, the black mark of dishonor the chapter suffered time ago.
- The 6th current Master Apotechary is Sirius Invictanus a Masterful Medic, Unorthodox Poisoner and Elegant Warrior. Sirius costant research in the chapter unique poison, has gone even further than the standards of the past in the Apothecarium. And by applying is medical skills who knows what he could achieve.

>>5878057 My thought was that every year there’s a fresh crop of Titanoboa offspring, who start out at 5m, grow to 15m, and then most of these yearlings die through battling each other.

>>5878074 Makes sense to me that the Chief Apothecary wants Titano-venom samples for his own research. Sending aspirants and scouts out for this kind of stuff seems like something that the Master Apothecary would do.
Also, this might be too much “snake business”, but it would be cool if some of the Cobalt Asps tattooed their skin like snakehide.
Basically on the surface, they’re hyper Codex compliant Ultramarines successors, but underneath, there’s a weird mix of snake obsession, venom one-upsmanship and general tomfoolery. None of it is really sadistic or malicious, but it IS embarrassing - I imagine that the Cobalt Asps don’t let on how weird they really are to the other Ultramarine Successors

>>5878089 Tattoos of different kinds and reasons are not uncommon in the Astartes. It wouldn't be strange to have tattoos.
This said i am not sure i agree with the "surface" or to cover them, it would have great importance. The Codex and Roboute are everything for them, so tattoos might be of religious importance for them or sign of their own of great honor, chivalry and deeds.

- 7th current Master of Reclusium is Vitus Caspean, Great Warrior, Inspiring Leader, Devout Educator and Zealot. Vitus is a beloved figure of the chapter, and one that has the codex, the primarch and their traditions truly at heart than anyone else in the chapter (something that outsiders could hardly believe possible, with the already impressive dedication and veneration, the chapters marines give to this things). The fire and love he has for this things is unlike any other, something very appreciated by the chapter. When not in campaign or on his duties, the Master of the Reclusium often visits streets, plazas and other buildings for give public speeches and religious sermons to the people of Ouroboros. Here and of course in the Azure Great Temple, the people cry of happiness hearing his words learning much from them and taking those lessons with them.
- 13th current Captain of the Honor Guard is Geran Calgemman, a Noble Knight, Intrasigent Officer and Fair Leader. Geran is an impeccable example of the chapter elite, a warrior of great renown and a respected leader. He always makes sure the Honor Guard present it self perfectly everywhere it goes, and that in battle they act has one in the defense of the Chaptermaster. Personally he considers the Farsight Enclaves has an actual threat to the sector, a different enemy than the ones they had fought for long, but still one to not consider too irrelevant or weak.
- 5th current Chapter Ancient is Phrateos Dolurius, Wise Mentor, Blade Master and a truly Hardened Veteran. Phrateos is one of the oldest marines of the chapter, a soldier in countless campaigns. He makes sure to use his experience for properly guide future generations be marines or mortals.

Felt like nailing down the specifics of what Urban/Human Ruins/Xenos Ruins meant would be notably relevant, so while discussion about that wasn't too present, I believe it was relevant to put in the first vote. This unfortunately bumped some of the stuff that was being discussed over to the Second Round as I wanted to keep all the voting options for a given round in one post.
Though given the amount of agreement, I am going to say the mutation idea for the Preomnor gland is pretty certain to be set in stone as canon without need for a vote to confirm it. If anyone disagrees, speak now. For quick reference:
>>5877179 >The Preomnor gland has tripled in size and has now a sack that produce poison and it now requires in the space marine daily diet, the integration of no small amount of poisonous and inedible foods on top of the edible foods they need to eat. This means that the chapter has to increase and diversify production of food, and keep in check that there is no lack of it in their logistics during campaigns or travel. If they need it but haven't enough with them, they will no doubt need to buy it or forage for it during their campaigns. If they cannot have it the marines bodies will begin to suffer with ever stronger, lethal and constant convulsions, until death. Due to the larger gland the Space Marines' Spit Acid has turned in to a colored blood-purple virulent poison that they produce in larger quantities than before (and that has been used by the chapter by applying it on their weapons and ammo, or using it directly in melee when without helmets), their bodies are also further immune to poisons than other marines.

Several of the more dangerous ruins had their defenses deliberately tripped during the First Tyrannic War to aid in fending off Tyrannid invasions of the world.

2-5 dies: 1-3, asteroid, 4-6, small moon, 7-9, large moon, 10: sister planet with different ecology?

>>5878807 I know there's a random star system generator from the Rogue Trader RPGs that could be used to further expand on the system as a whole if people want to do that. However, I would need to get ahold of that PDF as I do not have it, and whether we go into it or not would be subject to a vote.
So, something fun about the name you chose. There's an artifact related to the Old Ones with that name. An artifact that caused at least one Dark Angel to become one of the Fallen. And there was a little campaign in M42 related to it that will be some time after when we will be doing things.

I will freely admit. If you chose that, one of the possible plot-lines was doing diplomacy with the Mechanicus and the Inquistion as the Chapter Master that had come around because you were arming some of your local PDF allies with parts of a few DAoT police lockers and civilian gun stores. Which they found out because a Space Marine overheard some Imperial Guard recruits complaining about how said Marines had weaker weapons than some of the PDF special forces back home had (an exaggeration to be sure, but it sounded close enough they had to look in on it).

>>5877828 The Holy Castro Helio Roboutium, has an underground section were a fusion reactor and an energy shield are present allowing the Chapter to add another strong layer of protection around the Fortress Monastery and even the close city of Thebatium Magna.
Always underground their great fortress, the Cobalt Asps have built a large spacious bunker for mortals with attached small underground greenhouses and an infirmary, for ensure they have a good refuge that can feed for a while the population of the world in case of invasion. Near this bunker there is also an last underground structure : an underground garden, this one though can be only reached through the Hall of Vials. This underground garden has been made for the sole reason of harvesting the most dangerous plant based poisons, that the chapter cannot farm outside in fields and orchards, for how dangerous they are. Of course the most dangerous animal based poisons can be found only in the likes of Titanoboas, Megavipers, Ultracobras that live outside in the wilderness of the world.
>Chapter Space Station "Ticodian Tower" Orbiting Ourobos, stands a space station of a size similar in many chapters that are in the Cobalt Asps situation. Its of no great size, but its a tough bulwark in the frontier of the sector : much needed with the Far Sight Enclaves expansion and colonization, the Eldar Craftworld dwindling attacks or the opportunistic raids of their degenerate cousins, and the possibility of Chaos, Orks or Tyranids invasions. The population here is mostly of imperial stock, with some quarters established by the Chapter for Ouroboros natives. Mostly nobles, merchants and knights from Thebatium Magna but also some from the Realms. Here the Chapter recruits and trains the mortal crews, armsmens and officers of his spaceships. There is a difference though with other chapters and the Navy : the training period of all 3 is far longer and expanded upon by the Chapter, and their accomodations and equipment are of higher quality. This means the Chapter can better rely on them in void battles, but recovering their losses will take time same for the equipment they use. The majority of the Chapter fleet is able to dock here for receive supplies, ammunition, maintenances and repairs but the station does little in term of spaceships production. In regard to the defenses is provided with shields, much plating, macro batteries, lances batteries, lascannons turrets and missile turrets. Inside one can expect a little city like in most space stations, alongside structures of the Chapter.
In the space of Ouroboros solar system the Chapter has placed a few dozens small satellites that help them in communications and monitoring, and an hundred small armed satellites that act alongside the Ticodian Tower, has the Chapter space line of defense around Ouroboros.

>Codex Adherence The Chapter once had an impossible encounter, discovering an ancient log dating so old that it was believed to predate the Imperium. One where he expressed an idea of the risks of transhumans or so-called "Artificial" Intelligences. Alongside a psychic echo of the failures of the former with the Horus Heresy and the latter with the Iron War, the chapter regards their existence as a necessary evil at best and the Codex is to restrain Astartes from falling to dangerous ideas of supremacy. The chapter itself holds to these ideas rigidly to be an example, with the Axiom Hawks not needing to adhere as they have proven themselves with their reform born of the First Tyrannic War. Others are not so lucky.

>>5879886 >>5879889 you two forgot the rest of the vote !!!
I was thinking, maybe the previous masters of sanctity/reclusium, created some public feasts to spread in the Chapter culture and Ouroboros culture (maybe even the sector they are in.....). Religious/Folklore feasts, one dedicated to Roboute and the other to the Codex.
>Guillamania or Feast of the Holy Hero Reformer Roboute Guilliman The feast starts with a public religious ceremony of a few hours dedicated to the Primarch. Afterwards there will be public competitions of blades and other melee weapons, sports, medicine questionnaires, oratory, craftsmanship and lastly a theatrical (chapter approved) religious retelling of the life of Guilliman.
>Codex Day or Feast of the Reading of the Holy Codex Astartes The feast is mainly centered in allowing any marines or mortals that wishes in reading their favorite parts of the Codex. Afterwards there is a great public reading and a great sermon. At the end, since the feast coincides with the end of the harvest season, there is a great public banquet open to all with much storytelling of battles and the Codex use in them.

>>5878217 - The current 12th Master of Recruits is Helvetan Capitolinus, a Distinguished Warrior, a Diligent Officer and an Inspiring Preacher. Helvetan often visits or wanders the Realms of Ouroboros, for see the people and the noble houses with his own eyes and hear what problems they might have. This allows him a very direct relation with the world, and to properly know possible new recruits and their families. Alongside testing them with simple trials and games, when they are not yet ready to be aspirants. Due to this he has great reputation and honor in all of Ouroboros Realms.
- The current 10th Master of the Fleet is Geren Salutio, a Experienced Explorer, Veteran Boarder and a Superb Tactician. The Master of the Fleet has been so far occupied with destroying many tau scouting fleets and "diplomatic parties" of the Far Sight Enclaves that wanted to enter the sector, alongside the not so occasional ork pirate or human ones. At the moment he seems interested mainly in keeping the Tau away from the sector, though he has voiced the idea of missions for explore their nearest colonies. Beyond that he has proposed the acquisition or construction, if deemed possible, of some defensive platforms to place in the orbit of Ouroboros for further strengthen the Chapter defensive space line.
- The current 227th Grand Master of the Cobalt Asps Chapter Serfs Order Medicae is Aurelia Gallus Empus, a Talented Medic, and a Good Warrior and Administrator. Aurelia is a century old Grand Master, of common origin instead of a noble one. She is from the Realm of Epidias, and was in her younger years a simple village healer often considered by the more ignorants witches and warlocks, simply because they live in distant huts in the wilderness. Such remote location allowed her to have a great practical background with much of the flora and fauna of the world, with proved of great interest to the Chapter when she entered the academy-hospital of the Medicae Order. Choosing her was a remarkably good decision, has she proved herself during the years and with a steady rise until, she reached the most prestigious and ambitious position in the academy and the chapter serfs. At the moment Aurelia is busying herself with the creation of a network of new infirmaries of the Medicae Order, in new villages that have been recently founded by the common peasantry of the Realms with the support of the Chapter.

>>5881727 >Consider the guardsman. They fight upon every front of the Imperium on innumerable battlefields across the stars, many of which will never see the deployment of Space Marines. Then there is the PDF, who fight upon battlefields even before the guard itself can arrive and will often be the first to encounter any force to threaten the Imperium. All exist upon the innumerable backs of Menials and directly by uncountable Bureaucrats. Without them, Marines would be nothing. It is such the duty of the Transhuman to serve the Human. Those who abuse or truly reverse this duty are no friends of the chapter. I’d like to add the part about recording the names of the dead if possible.
>This strange blade was recovered from some Xenos-inhabited ruins of an old Human world. It seems to date back to the Age of Strife or even further beyond. Somehow, the blade was attuned to be the inverse of the warp, acting similar to a Blank. It deals terrifying damage to the mind as a result. >The Greatest of Demigods Former primary enemy is:
>Chaos Chaos is the embodiment of “might makes right” in the galaxy, it’s core philosophy is that the weak should be subject to the will of the strong. It’s the exact opposite of the Asps’ core ideology.
The chapter rules by:
>The Chapter regularly hosts meetings between the rulers of the homeworld's nations as a neutral third party or advisors to diplomatic agreements. This lets the chapter put their fingers on the scales without being tyrannical. It helps that no nation on Ouroboros could reasonably defeat them, so neutrality is a pretty easy position to take.

>>5881722 >mortals Life itself is sacred. To lose any is a tragic loss. To engage in its corruption and destruction is an incredible sin. There are many species such, as the Tyrannids, and many factions, such as Chaos, that abuse this. They must be removed to allow the true destiny of the galaxy. A rule by mankind certainly, but with benevolent xenos able to be incorporated into it to form a harmonious union. Diplomacy is desirable to have them submit.

Not because of there being a tie, but because my mind is blanking at the moment when it comes to what the next round of voting could compose of. Whether in the form of specifying more detail, or for the options for the start of the quest.

>>5882404 I think we have enough detail to proceed. We have a chapter background, some history, a current assignment, planet, local customs, preferred tactics… that’s more than enough to go on.
No need to turn this into a 300+ reply chapter creation thread you’d see on /tg/.

>>5882404 Since i bothered making a good chunk of the details, i am pretty satisfied if they will be all used and i think we can start Sunday. Beyond that there is two minor things, that can be easily filled by you : battle companies names and our sector name. Unless you want to do it during the quest or make it a choice.
I think i will just add the royal houses names of each realm later in the day/weekend.
