Editing Chaos Warband Creation Tables

{{Cleanup}}
{{Stub}}

Inspired by the [[Space Marine Chapter Creation Tables]] from [[Fantasy Flight Games]]' [[Deathwatch (RPG)|Deathwatch Roleplaying Game]], these tables are for generating a warband of Cultists, Traitor [[Imperial Guard]], and [[Chaos Space Marines]].  If you're looking to make a CSM-only Warband, check out the [[Chaos Space Marine Warband Creation Tables]].

===Warband's Origin===

{| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"
! What did they start from?
! D100 Roll
|- 
| Imperial Guard: The warband was once a loyalist regiment, but received "friendly fire" one too many times for their liking.
| 1-10
|-
| Planetary Rebels: The planetary governor wanted the world, and decided that Chaos was a fine ally to help him or her do just that!
| 11-20
|-
| Isolated colony: After the 900th call to the Administratum for help against those Xenos raiders it was decided that perhaps the Imperium just wasn't worth helping out.
| 21-30
|-
| Pirates: A few enterprising souls in the vast darkness of space decided that they just want to kick back, relax, and enjoy the hard-earned efforts of others.
|31-40
|-
|Warband offshoot: Things got a tad boring after the last pillaging, and a few of the boys decided that they'd make their own warband with blackjack and hookers.
| 41-50
|-
|Time Travelers: Perhaps they came from the Horus Heresy or from five seconds in the future, but either way this Warband is not from when they should be. 
| 51-60
|-
| Chaotic Genestealers: Your Patriarch ate one too many Chaos Worshippers, and found out that serving Chaos was a lot more fun than only eating it.
|61-70
|-
| Misbegotten Expedition: This Warband was looking for ancient STC's or long lost treasure, but either way found something far greater than they ever imagined.
|71-80
|-
| Warp Madness: One Warp Storm too many caused a large population to go batshit, and decide that the logical thing to do was burn down the nearest Shrine World.
|81-90
|-
| Daemon World: Your warband was homegrown in the Warp itself on a daemon world, and finally got a chance to strike out on their own!
| 91-100
|-

===Blessings of the Gods===

{| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"
! Frequency of Blessings
! D100 Roll
|- 
| None: The war band has not garnered significant attention of any of the deities of chaos and thus receive no blessings
| 1-10
|-
| Low: A Champion or a group of individuals within the war band have committed deeds worthy of recognition by the gods of chaos and have received
| 11-45
|-
| Moderate: The war band regularly has individuals within whom are capable of garnering the attention and blessings of the gods
| 46-85
|-
| High: Every deed, every thought, every word spoken is done in the name of chaos. The war band is highly active and effective, constantly attracting the attention of the gods. Most, if not all, of the war band has received some sort of blessing
| 86-100
|-
|}


{| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"
! Common Blessings
! D100 Roll
|- 
| “Aesthetic”: Physical deformities that give nothing to the individuals other a change in looks. It could be possibly a set of short horns, useless tentacle appendages, a third eye, etc.
| 1-50
|-
| Deadly Protrusions: Once again, these take the form of physical deformities, however, these deformities serve a purpose in combat. With mutations such as spiked limbs, sharp fangs, large horns, etc. the blessed ones are even more deadly in close combat.
| 51-60
|-
| Heightened senses: Those blessed with heightened senses are made significantly much more aware of their surroundings.
| 61-70
|-
| Servants of the Warp: Warp spawned creatures are given to the blessed as utterly loyal servants. These can be anything from a hound of chaos, to chaos spawn, to a familiar.
| 71-75
|-
| Spawn-hood: The Gods are uncaring, any attention from them they consider to be a gift, even if it is sorely unwanted. The war band suffers from having many of the blessed becoming spawn or on the path to becoming one.
| 76-80
|-
| Weapons of Chaos: The blessed of the war band have been given much war gear infused with chaos one way or another. This may take form in daemon weapons, artifacts of chaos, blessed/cursed armor, etc.
| 81-90
|-
| The Eye that sees Beyond: The Gods have granted those who have gained their attention with an additional that can see into the Warp allowing them to communicate directly to daemons and makes summoning daemons significantly easier. For psykers, the eye allows them greater access and control over warp spawned magic.
| 91-98
|-
| Daemonhood: The most revered of all gifts, it is rarely dispensed upon those who gain the favor of the gods, saved only for those who commit aspiring deeds worthy of legend in the name of chaos. The War band is fortunate as they have committed such deeds and those who are blessed are either daemon princes, or well upon the path to daemonhood
