    Summary

    The story follows psyker Venria von Valancius on her journey of coming to terms with her past and present - from a life of fear and sorrow to suddenly being named a Rogue Trader and new head of the von Valancius dynasty, while dealing with all the problems and threats she seemed to have inherited from her predecessor.
    There is also an agent of the holy Inquisition following her every step, observing and reporting any trespassing to his master - while they have a difficult start, they discover how much they actually have in common.

    For related art of Venria and Heinrix: https://www.tumblr.com/cawyden-gaming/755622477368049664/rogue-trader-related-art?source=share
    I also add artwork directly to the end of the corresponding chapters.

    -> While this story follows the events of the game and stays mostly close to canon, it unfolds often only between the game's quests. Expect a lot of Heinrix/Venria interaction as this is a dialog-heavy story with a focus on Venria and her developing relationship with Heinrix van Calox.

    Summary

    Heinrix van Calox is a watchdog of the Inquisition. Bound by duty and fueled by a deep-seeded shame, he continues to serve the Imperium the only way he’s ever been allowed, on the tight line of a leash. Obedient and steadfast, Heinrix has always been eager to prove himself. And yet, no amount of accolades or praise will ever assuage him from feeling like a vile cur, simply grateful to not have been put down.

    Visenya von Valancius is a void wolf. Forced by circumstance into an existence where she has had to fight for every breath, she dreams of freedom from the tireless hunters who stalk her footsteps and seek her ruin. Thrust once more into a life she did not ask for, Visenya must now lead those who once saw her as nothing more than a mongrel.

    Both are strays in a war-torn galaxy, simply seeking a place to belong.

    Newest Chapter Summary: Trapped on the lower decks of an Inquisition shipwreck, Visenya and Heinrix are haunted by memories that neither are eager to share. Unfortunately, the strange warp corruption saturating the wreckage may not give them any other choice.

    Summary

    Fenris, captain of Starkhaven’s White Guard and the dearest friend of that country’s prince, has arrived in the kingdom of Kirkwall with a retinue of noble-born guards and a carriage brimming with lavish gifts. How else to win over the hearts of a suspicious mountain people who would rather break teeth on stone than accept the prince of Starkhaven stealing away their heir princess?

    But stone is all they have in their kitchens lately, and gravel in their quarries and ice in their bitter rivers, and Starkhaven sits abreast the richest lea and moorland south of the Minanter.

    And Sebastian Vael, the young prince of that country, needs a wife.

    Summary

    Nathaniel's life isn't a particularly exciting one, and he's alright with that. He's got enough to do working on a master's degree in classical piano, but a chance encounter with a colleague leads to an opportunity to pick up the bass he hasn't touched in years and try something new for once.

    He's certainly not going to get involved with the unfairly pretty blonde guitarist who won't stop coming onto him, though. That would be absurd.

    The deranged Awakening band AU no one ever asked for.
