Tainted

The men and women of the Imperial Guard must all too often face incomprehensible horrors from beyond the veil of reality. After facing the denizens of the Warp or their mortal followers, regiments are often subject to extreme measures to ensure they are free of corruption, which may mean every soldier receiving the Emperor’s Mercy. Whether due to seeming purity, ignorance of just what they actually faced, or an oversight by the Departmento Munitorum, some regiments are reassigned despite bearing spiritual scars from their brush with the ruinous powers. In other cases, a regiment might begin to manifest signs of taint with no apparent explanation, while still others enlist bringing with them some taint from their home world, unknown to the Departmento Munitorum. Regardless of the nature and origin of its corruption, such a regiment must hide its dark secret lest it be purged by other Imperial forces.

Regiment Points: 3 points

The Touch of the Warp: For whatever reason, the soldiers of this regiment carry a spiritual and physical corruption, which manifests in horrific ways. Characters from this regiment begin play with 1d10 Corruption Points. In addition, characters from this regiment suffer an additional –10 penalty to Malignancy Tests and Tests to avoid gaining Mutations (see page 309 of the Only War Core Rulebook).
