Make Your Own: Inquisitor & Retinue

Shoutout to the retinue my friends and I made back in high school. We had a squad with a psychic blank, a crusader, a pair of Ogryn twins, an oathbound space marine who helps us because he lost a bet to the previously mentioned Ogryn twins and would never be able to live it down outside of the crew, and a guardsman lady who had a major love for the sisters of battle to the point of blowing her pay on dressing up like them. Ah the memories. (Oh there was also a harlequin elder who just fucked around at the same time as the group but we don't talk about Cherrnobog the great and mighty, not after the incident on that black ship-)

[@alloran0987]

Dark Heresy is absolutely fantastic for fleshing out retinue ideas, because the very premise of the game is that you're playing an inquisitor/interrogator and their retinue. It's got details talking about the different types of characters you can build, including integrating some xenos (though definitely not as much as rogue trader). I highly recommend finding a copy or pdf to get some food for thought

[@KillerOrca]

I should bring my Ordo Ordinatus back. An Ordo focused entirely on recording OTHER Ordos so that the Inquisition knows not to make more than one of them. Ironically enough in their investigations they've uncovered that their Ordo has existed, under different names and slightly altered remits, five times over the last 10,000 years.

[@wickerbotterthewizard707]

For and Ordo Xenos retinue, having both DeathWatch *and* Xenos for your inquisitor roster might lead to lots of hijinks. I'd imagine just like how astrum militarum deserters get recruited to be servitors, an inquisitor might find Xenos deserters very useful. As most deserters are self interested, an Ordo Xenos Inquisitor might offer an alien a safe retirement on a garden world in exchange for their services, all the while the DeathWatch insures said Xenos don't backstab the Inquisitor.

[@YourBoyNobody530]

One of my favorite characters which I have created is a death world vindicar assassin for my inquisitor’s retinue who was able to keep his sanity intact, and even outperform other vindicar assassin’s due to his death worlder heritage promoting increased speed and agility. Other members of the inquisitor’s retinue include a magos biologist who was exiled for tech heresy, a former member of the iron warriors who left because being a traitor sucks, and a former night lord who gets along great. Alongside their inquisitors who is a member of my own inquisition faction know as the ordo agentus which functions as a inquisition equivalent to the black watch having inquisitors and their retinue form right knit groups to tackle missions. The ordo agentus is also know for utilizing all the useful, but unaccepted members of society for the greater good of humanity so if your ex-guardsmen grandpa gets disappeared for not getting older and healing quickly he might just be working in the ordo agentus.

[@KillerOrca]

I assume you mean Deathwatch. The Blackwatch is either from Overwatch or Battletech.

I’m begging for a guard regiment guide

[@osogitzgraymane72]

Here's an idea for those looking for representation on the tabletop: in the current rules, all Astra Militarum units can be accompanied by a maximum of two leaders. This includes Agents of the Imperium leaders. Before I get into the grit of this plan, you need to remember that an Atache (ogryn body guard, fleet master, artillery master, astropath) are not leaders and are attached to the command squad. Not normal squads. To represent a supremely powerful retinue on the tabletop, you may do the following: 1: run your army as an Astra militarum army 2: select a tempestus scion command squad as your warlord. This makes tempestuous scions battleline 3: attach atache to the command squad 4: attach command squad to tempestus scions normal squad 5: attach inquisitor to the now counts-as battleline Tempestus scions unit. With this set up, you have all those specialized characters in one place to use as "counts as". Ork can be ogryn, sanction psyker can be astropath, magos biologus medic, admech communication specialist. You want it? You have got almost every way to represent it. with how current rules work, this entire unit now has deepstrike and can be deployed wherever you want them to be. You can kit them out with all the special goodness. Edit: you can also still run a knight or armigers if you want as well

[@BigBoneBusiness]

There are also examples of Space Marine Chapters being founded/taken over by sects within a major ordo, like the Exorcists and the Plutonians of the Ordo Malleus.

[@archmageeldran2567]

I do think that Inquisitors and Rogue Traders are both arguably the most customisable of the factions with the different Ordo's and the belief systems that many Inquisitors ascribe to. My personal idea for an Inquisitor is one that specialises in investigating Knights particularly Freeblades and puts a lot of emphasis on having a personal code of conduct. Their retinue would have members that focus on the diplomatic aspect of dealing with Knights and people whose sole job is being good at killing knights. + airsupport because Knights are not the best at fighting aircraft to my understanding.

[@WolfMimirMori]

I made an inquisiter once. the fun thing is, his retinue wasn't actualy chosen bye him. he is consistantly just given people who are useful but... Iffy. Like Horseshue: a guardsman who survived on a chunk of cadia (and somehow is always just lucky enough to stay alive), Jurtan: a hyper inteligant ogryn who may not have social apt but knows every tactick posible, or even Brother Krain: a devout aclisiarch who is an astoundingly powerful psycher and belives he has been chosen peronaly by the emperor due to serviving in the thrones presence. fun stuff.

[@user-dx1lx6vf4n]

I have an inquisitor Psyker named Felix Alexio. Instead of having a set Ordo for him I use the idea that inquisitors can change prod’s whenever they deem fit, with Felix being notorious for flip-flopping. As such he rarely calls upon order militants and usually works through guard regiments. In my current narrative he has forcefully taken the defense force of the planet Peorne literally half-way across the galaxy to fight in the 4th tyrannic war, getting these men there just in time thanks to psykic visions (with the implication that if he was wrong the guardsmen we’re probably gonna strangle him). He’s a bit more of a humorous side character so he tends to work almost entirely alone and appear every now and then, though when rouge trader comes out I plan on using my character in that as the rouge trader Felix primarily relies upon to travel the galaxy.

[@gawkthimm6030]

Inquisitors can change Ordo, an Ordo is more like a "specialization" and area of study and interest.

[@vincentdurocher9699]

In the DeathWatch RPG core rulebook, there is a blurb about how DeathWatch Watch Commanders sometime become Inquisitors when they "retire". Imagine a Space Marine Chapter Master, basically, being an Inquisitor. They would have allies in their own Chapter, could call in favors from the DeathWatch and from all the Marines that were under their command during their leadership. This sounds like the most overpowered thing ever and I kinda want to write something about one of them

[@dakotaanderson254]

I'm thinking on a inquisitor that I could make to be as at ren-faires, Ordo Barbarus, he goes in disguised as like a prince or high noble, and the only real telltale signs that he's an inquisitor is the rosette on his necklace, and the hidden bolt pistol

[@RenMomoDotPog]

Would love to see this explored as a rogue trader, but I feel it's largely the same

[@derfzgrld]

The Officio Assassinorum is NOT under the control of the Inquisition and may NOT be part of an inquisitors retinue. While they have a positive relationship with the Inquisition and therefore sometimes decide to ignore the rules when they think its appropriate, they may officially only be deployed on the order of the high lords of Terra themselfes. Best thing they might do is send an assassin alongside an Inquisitor for a single job, for which they will not be at the inquisitors side for most of the time. Unless of course you actually have an order of the high lords that says something else but I dont recommend homebrewing their such orders.

[@SwordlordRoy]

An aspect not touched on here is Inquisitorial Philosophies, which were introduced in the Inquisitor Roleplaying Skirmish game and touched upon in Dark Heresy. These are what really drives a lot of intra-Inquisition Conflict. Examples include: Thorianism, which seeks out the Emperor reincarnated into Heroes of the Imperium; Horusianism, which sees the power-up Horus got from Chaos and decides to use Chaos to fight and destroy Chaos (they're not well liked by anyone...); and my personal favorite of these, Istavaanianism. The Istavaanian philosophy feels that Conflict improves everything, I mean we wouldn't have this Glorious Imperium we have today if it wasn't for shots fired at Istavaan III, so they decide to foster conflict. They are true madmen who look at the nonstop wars, space locust swarms, ork waaaghs, chaos incusions, rebellions, etc and cheerfully declare that Humanity isn't embattled enough!

[@SwordlordRoy]

Inquisitor Talia Darlibagi A distant descendant of Saint Moira Darlibagi of the Kundonian Imperial Creed, Talia grew up in a comparatively sheltered environment. As was expected of planetary nobility, she learned the the arts of leadership and fencing at a young age. She'll probably be the first to tell you that she would probably still be in that cozy past life of hers if a cult that had been growing rapidly within the underhive, the Cult of the Emperor's Blood, hadn't revealed itself as a Nurgle warband. A sickness fell over the hive, the cultists launching strikes against the uninfected, including the House of Darlibagi. She barely escaped with the help of Lord Inquisitor Vandalarius Calamare of the Ordo Hereticus, who took her on as a acolyte. He taught her of Istavaanianism and the Noble goal of his "Kundonian Experiment". Under his tutelage, she became an interrogator, then an inquisitor. As is usual for Istavaanians, she owes allegiance to no Ordo, but she maintains close ties to Clamare. The Lord Inquisitor often has her travel to other locations for him, for In the Grim Darkness of the 41st Millennium...there must be only war. Talia is Right Handed Sister Sabenya Born a daughter of two heroes of the Astra Militarum, Sabenya was practically raised around the ubiquitus lasgun. When her parents died in battle with the Tau, She was sent to a Schola Progenium that had been co-opted by Lord Inquisitor Calamare as part of the "Kundonian Experiment". She was on track for the Commissariat when she gained the attention of Sister Superior Ephrata on the Scrumball pitch, being transferred over to be a Noviciate of the Order of the Sacred Rose. Upon becoming a Sister proper, her squad was assigned the task of protecting then-Interrogator Talia Darlibagi in a mission towards Tau Space. In an ambush, Sabenya charged headlong into enemy fire, the sight of the blue-skinned devils shaking something loose within her. The mission was ultimately successful promoting Talia Darlibagi to the rank of Inquisitor, but Sister Sabenya was the only survivor of her squad. Impressed by the Tenacity of the Sister, Inquisitor Darlibagi took her on as her first Acolyte. The Battle Sister is a loyal bodyguard to the descendant of the Saint her order reveres, rarely leaving the Inquisitor's side. Sabenya is Right-Handed Subject Jericho 97-62 Delta "Delta" Little is known of Subject Delta's origins, just that the Black Ships discovered him living in a nest of Ratlings in the underhive of the city of Tsukuyomi on the world of Bearrigun's Folly. The ship traveled not to Holy Terra, but to a hidden Inquisitorial asteroid base in the Demachen Reach. There, Horusian Inquisitor Forbin Claud Experimented to increase his potential as a psyker "For the good of the Imperium". Delta grew to despise the Imperium during this time, killing the other subjects in Inquisitor Claud's testing arenas. He saw this as a mercy to the others, slaying the last as Inquisitor Talia was raiding the facility. He was captured and interrogated. Inquisitor Darlibagi saw use in the Heretic and took him as a useful "tool" in her arsenal. He does so unwillingly, with a penal legionnaire explosive collar around his neck. The collar is keyed to the Inquisitor's vitals as well as a trigger she carries. as can be imagined, he hates her guts. Still, he does enjoy bringing fire and ruin to the hated Imperium. Subject Delta is Right Handed.

[@MarieAvora]

Very tl;dr on puritans and radicals - what is their outlook on bending the rules Does your Ordo Hereticus inquisitor maaaybe have an enslaved cultist or demon on board? That's pushing in radicalism. Maybe your inquisitor instead busted open the brains of some other inquisitor who stared at a strange book for a second too long? That's pushing puritanism. How much you're willing to get close to the enemy to destroy them, and risk being corrupted by their influence vs how much you're willing to slow your own efforts in order to uphold purity in accordance to dogma

for a crusade game 0f 9th, it was deathwatch, sisters of battle, grey knights and salamanders bickering and having a full on cival war about the fate of a planet. the deathwatcha rrived due to suspected eldar activity and came in force due to there also being a noticable genestealer cult on the planet present this genestealer cult tiself was in a three way cival on the planet it self between a rising chaos cult who is the most dominant one as well as whatever loyalist remantest of the PDF are still fighting due to the chaos cult, the Grey Knights have came to preemptively arrive for a deamon incursion that is starting to happen. finally, the Salamanders are caught in all this since they just wanted to protect the world from the deamons, traitors and xenos. everyone currently hates each other, the sisters are thus far the biggest warcriminals, and we joked around that the inquisitors ended a meeting with them throwing hands, the grey knights inquisitor being the one who absolutely pummeled the others also came up

Here is what I put together: [Jaylenor is the only inquisitor of the Ordo Apocalypsis, an ordo responsible for the containment and/or destruction of entities and creatures that pose apocalyptic threats to the Imperium. They work for the Imperial Inquisition and live in the Imperium Of Man from Warhammer 40k. They are very unique, as their soul was personally blessed by the God Emperor Of Man. This granted them the physiology of a soldier of the Adeptus Custodes, being a perpetual (somebody who can't permanently die), being a stable alpha-plus psyker (the most powerful a human psyker can be), and a fluent understanding of the Enuncia language (a language that, if spoken, allows the speaker to perform incredible psychic acts).] [Species: Human] [Occupation: De-facto lord inquisitor of the Ordo Apocalypsis] [Psychic potential: Alpha-plus, stable, awakened, trained, licensed] [Enhancements: Custodian, perpetual, primaris astartes gene seed] [Daemonic vulnerability: incorruptible] [Languages: Enuncia, Orkish, Tau, High Gothic, Cthonian, Colchisian, Fenrisian, Konndar, Medusan, Valhallan, Ylath, Low Gothic, Jokaero, Lingua-technis, Cant Mechanicus] [Personality: Reasonable, calm, humble, faithful, blunt, indefatigable, careful, observant, considerate, receptive, respectful, ruthless when necessary] [Weapons: Mk.II Cawl Pattern Bolt Rifle, Frost Blade Pattern Chainsword, MK III Belisarius Pattern Plasma Incinerator, Heavy Thunder Hammer, Force Rod, Gauss Flayer, Mars-Omega Pattern Volkite Charger, Guardian spear equipped with adrathic destructor, Vexilla Defensor, Praesidium shield] [Armour: Allarus Pattern Terminator Armour] [Armour augmentations: Hexagrammic Wards, Inquisitorial Seal, Right-arm-mounted Lastrum Bolt Cannon, Left-arm-mounted Arachnus Storm Cannon, Psycho-aetheric Induction Circuitry, Fenrisian Psychic Runes, Telemon Pattern Dreadnaught plating, black colour, wrist-mounted Obliteratum Balistus grenade launcher, Iron Halo, Refractor field generator, Reductor field generator, Crux Imperialis] [Personal augmentations: Mind Impulse Unit, Psi-booster, Electoos, Concealed Bionic Sense Enhancements, Bionic Organ Enhancements, mechadendrites] [Height: 11 feet 7 inches without armour, 12 feet 3 inches with armour] [IQ: 300] [Ship: significantly-upscaled inquisitorial Black-Ship (20km long)] [Ship modifications: armoured prow, 8 macro cannon turrets, 4 Lance turrets, 24 flak turret arrays, Ryza-pattern nova cannon, 6 large hangar bays, 5 large cargo holds, 1 omega artillery gun, Auramite armour, 1 Obfuscation engine, 1 Eclipse shield, 1 Veilbreaker Teleportarium] [Retinue: 5 platoons of Tempestus Scions, all equipped with standard Ignatus power armour. 1 squad of Adeptus Custodes Shadow Keepers. 1 Baneblade tank company. 30 imperial knights of house Apocryphus. A discovered copy of the Castigator-class titan. 3 imperator-class titans. 2 Warmonger-class titans. 5 Warmaster Iconoclast-class titans. 5 Warmaster-class titans. 10 Warlord-class titans.

@@pootisbird7280 that is definitely one way to brew that I was thinking more like sheltering very heretical tech-priests in his retinue who have managed to reverse engineer and replicate parts of C’Tan shard prisons. They are now containing his catches for him, without all the safety features the necrons have but instead with a double use as a doomsday device or something like that

Welp, time to make Inquisitorial Retinue Killteam Fortress II

I would make an inquisitor along the lines of a 1930s pulp fiction hard boiled detective. Complete with trenchcoat and fedora. Investigating the dark and dirty place the Imperium forgets about, usually with a dangerous dame involved.

[@nathanwhitmore3980]

Perfect!

[@borisdorofeev5602]

The Wathammer + Interrogator show was made in that style.

[@anzaca1]

12:24 And possible hijinks/hilarity when they decide to be bold enough to flirt with your Sister of Battle. But hey, if an old Librarian can get a Sister in bed, anyone can.

[@clockhead9023]

Creating a Retinue is basically making a D&D party ngl

[@paulellington1505]

In my opinion the best Inquisitors are like Eisenhorn and Ravenor. But most times people see Inquisitors as the exterminatus happy psychopaths like the ones who caused the Months of Shame and the one who screwed over the Celestial Lions. But I'm actually a fan of the inquisition as a whole.

[@BigAlsWorkingHard]

Dark Heresy Ascension also has useful information as the primary classes are Inquisitor and Interrogator (hopeful future Inquisitor) it revolves around taking the acolytes that you've been playing through campaigns and bringing them up to that next level of an Inquisitor and there top tier retinue. Lots of cool stuff there as well the Inquisitor's Handbook and the Radicals Handbook both of which are expansions for Dark Heresy that offer different backgrounds origins fluff etcetera to expand on your Dark Heresy characters :3

[@chocolatecake30]

I think it would be badass to have an inquisitor who is really just evil, not even in like a heretical way but instead is corrupted by the power he is given as an inquisitor and usues it to do whatever the hell he wants. I think he should start out as fairly generous but the nore screwed up things he sees and he sees hiw really corrupt everything is he realizes he can't really play nice abd if he wants any real respect he has to show people that he's earned it. However he's nieve so he does this through raking up a high vody count and surrounding himself with murderous retinue.

[@RotaFury]

These vides have now made me wanna make my own space marine, chaos and inquisitors. The inqueistior will be toughest for me becuase im gonna wanna grab a little of a lot for there retinue.

[@miguelmialichi6367]

I created a retinue on wrath and glory once They were all at tier 3 Kalos. A sanctioned psyker, he is surprisingly good in a fight, having high weapon and ballistic skill. He is the closest to an interrogator in the retinue, having an extra hatred for traitors combined with quite the expertise on biomancy, capable of inflicting pain with his mind made him stand out among the retinue for the ordo hereticus inquisitor Grot. An ogryn warrior from krieg. He was placed on the retinue as muscle, and has proved his worth, posessing a protective instinct, plenty of traitors killed because they assumed the ogryn was too unaware of his surroundings to notice any missing ally Kriton. A lexmechanic. The mechanicus member, filled with augmentations to make him quite a computer, he serves as both the tech priest and scribe of the retinue, being also quite inquisitive makes him pretty much the second most favored one of the retinue, kalos has the fervor and interrogation (and torture) skills, kriton got the investigative skills Sister katrinne. A sister of battle. Just like grot she was added as muscle as well as faith, she is very good at getting imperial citizens to cooperate, be it through faith or fear Gustoff. A tempestus scion. He is the sharpshooter of the retinue, being stealthy and the better shot among them as well as being quite a smartass and cunning fella, he ended up on the retinue due to his streak of managing to face down threats such as genestealer cults and even khornate cults and making it out mostly unscathed in some way or another The inquisitor, for some more dangerous missions also employed a specific space marine. The space marine is a tier 4 character Icarus, an apothecary of the salamanders chapter. Known by his battle brothers for being quite good at working alongside regular humans, his services are often requested by the inquisitor as both a leader, medic and strenght multiplier for the retinue

[@iloverpgs1052]

I have been homebrewing half a year now and I think a guide on planets would be very interesting

[@7aro7Dragoon]

wrath and glory is bunk, Dark Heresy or bust.

[@AlshainFR]

Preach brother!

[@MetalGearUltima]

Personally, I like W&G. It's easier to get into for me. Dark Heresy has more customization between its two editions, sure. But man, me likey just doing random weird builds in W&G.

[@Wolfbroa]

I enjoyed wrath and glory when i did tts rpg of it with friends

[@grantpark9093]

You get a random Ork here and within a RT's retinue from time to time because of Blood Axes or they might possibly be a Freeboota (the pirate-y orks!) Both groups are known to work as mercenaries for Human factions

[@-VOR]

The coolest inquisitor is Czevak. Dude even has a living saint in his retinue lol

[@SolarBrain4128]

Can an Inquisitor mess with a Rogue trader, or are they about equal in terms of rank?

[@AYAKXSHI]

Depends on the person

[@matthewsmith4710]

Making your guard regiment?

[@sordschie3944]

Very nice

[@tobiasklein8043]

Which artist did the artwork you Show at the 27th second i cound't find under the ones you mentioned

[@Steelstriker]

Can you do a "How to make your own Astra Militarum Regiment"?

[@palehunter6711]

Could you guys do a guard regiment video?

[@shawnashurst6495]

after renegade space marine vid, i wanna see how to make a guard regiment, cuz ive already made a guard regiment, the crisis guard, literally so useless and expendable, you evolved to have shorter birth and growth times, the guardsmen running away are more vital then you when youre in the crisis guard, you literally die so other guardsmen regiments dont, you and your gear is mass produced and youre still lucky if you have a helmet and mask/chest armor
