Streamlining Character Creation

By Necrozius, in Dark Heresy

Question:

Has anyone encountered a reference document that briefly outlines all of the options available for character creation?

Namely including short descriptions or summaries of all of the Home Worlds, Home World Variants, Backgrounds and Careers from all of the Source Books released so far. Not the rules, just concepts.

Rationale:

Currently I find it cumbersome to hop around 4 or 5 reference books in order to present all of the options available to new players for character creation. Also, the fluff explaining each is spread out in massive walls of text.

All of this tends to overwhelm my new players.

I'd love it if there was a general overview of all of these options with shorter descriptions. The mechanics aren't really necessary, just descriptions of each (I'd rather the players choose their backgrounds and homeworlds based on concepts, not rules).

I've started making my own document, but if someone out there has already done all of the work... that would be nice...

Thanks for any advice, suggestions.

Okay, no answers so far, so I'll re-phrase this more simply:

Has anyone made a consolidated list of all the Home Worlds, Home World Variants and Background packages from all source books so far?

Not really, but this is the next best thing:

Dok.

Thanks! Not quite what I was looking for, but a helpful tool nonetheless.

I guess that I'll just make one of these documents myself then. Once completed, I'll see if I can post it up on Dark Reign or something.
