I Just recently created a new character using the Pirate Prince of the Ragged Helix template from the Tome of Excess.
Her main idea was that she was born as a twisted mutant barely able to look after herself but was transformed into a living doll by mechanicus assimilation (took 2 selections from equipment choices but worth it for the background). She was kept as a collectible for her beauty until she eventually broke free killing her current owner and taking over his ship.
That's just a quick overview but I just wanted to make sure I got the process right as it can be a bit iffy. First of all she ended up with 20 corruption (15 starting, 4 for her disgrace of greed and 1 for being cold-hearted). I assume this is fine which gives her 2 starting mutations, which I rolled both for on the Rewards of Slaanesh table as she starts aligned to Slaanesh. My first question is is this okay or as a starting character should she only be allowed to roll on the standard Gifts of the Gods table?
Assuming there are no problems with this I did end up rolling daemon weapon twice (one was daemonic name but had enough infamy to slide it up to daemon weapon), which seems a bit of overkill to me, does anyone else think this? The first weapon I converted was the best craftsmanship bolt pistol for which I rolled impossibly sharp and envenomed until I realised a daemonette only has willpower of 28 which means regardless of the binding strength of the ritual they will always have only one power, no more no less, so I stuck with the original roll of 88 (impossibly sharp) from the unaligned table only.
I didn't bother going through all the ritual requirements as the weapon was a gift of Slaanesh not created by the character herself. I think this is correct but I find the daemon weapon rules a bit confusing so please correct me if I am wrong?
The second weapon I created also using a standard bolt pistol but only rolled once on the unaligned table this time, understanding (I think) the rules a little better this time. I rolled 95 this time having the second weapon also being impossible sharp (Looking forward to playing a deadly gun slinging android cowgirl here).
A little more boring than my usual posts as I prefer to concentrate on character and substance more than the mechanical rules but just wanted to make sure I got it right before I unleash Suniesha on the poor, unsuspecting galaxy so if there's anything you think I might have got wrong please let me know.
Cheers!
