The God-Emperor of Mankind and Eldar, Adam Kadmon.
The arch-enemy of Chaos, the protector and guardian of humanity, known to a select few as Adam Kadmon. After thirteen millennia trapped on the Golden Throne, Adam saw that his Imperium was lost, and in desperation harnessed a mysterious Warp distortion to tear open a doorway between the universes, escaping with a handful of ships from the half-dozen apocalypses racing to finish him.
- A God Am I: After so many thousands of years proclaiming A God I Am Not, Adam accepts that humanity needs him to be god for them to believe in and look up to.
- Babies Ever After: Has, at last count, a +65 bonus to creating new Primarchs the natural way. Once Ynnead gets a body, that's going to have to come into play at some point.
- Big Good: Shares the role with Ynnead.
- Good Is Not Soft: Has let his divine wrath loose on more than one occasion.
- Good Is Not Nice: Slipped into this big-time in his backstory, but is trying to avert the necessity in the new universe.
- First-Name Basis: Ynnead and Malcador are the only two who regularly refer to him as "Adam".
- Gold and White Are Divine: As in canon, gold is generally associated with him.
- Goo-Goo-Godlike: For a while, due to Ynnead reincarnating him to get him free of the Golden Throne.
- Love at First Sight: With Ynnead.
- Magically-Binding Contract: Made a pact with Ynnead to restore the Eldar race. Nobody wants to find out what might happen if he breaks it.
- Painting the Medium: His text is golden in color.
- Physical God: An immortal giant possessing incredible speed, strength, endurance and mind that moves like lightning, who wields enough power to rip open portals between universes.
- Plot-Relevant Age-Up: For some reason, the backlash of his overchanneling to destroy the Men of Iron caused him to go from baby to adult almost instantly.
- The Power of Love: The love and hope of trillions of people directed all at one man in his time of need can do incredible things.
The God-Empress of Eldar and Humanity, Ynnead Kadmon.
Since the Downfall, the Eldar have been collecting together the souls of their dead in the hopes of creating a new God to destroy Slaanesh and liberate their race. Mere minutes before the Exodus, the last living Eldar died, and Ynnead was born. Though not powerful enough to destroy Slaanesh, serendipity lead to her being in a position to receive the Emperor's offer of alliance, and she escaped with him into space between spaces.
- Big Good: Shares this role with Adam.
- Born as an Adult: And what a birth it was!
- Don't Fear the Reaper: Has something of a Psychopomp vibe going.
- Good Is Not Soft: Almost her first act upon being "born" was to try and impale Slaneesh.
- Heavenly Blue: Seems to favor this.
- Little Miss Almighty:
- Love at First Sight: With Adam.
- Magical Girl: Has a surprising resemblance to one.
- Painting the Medium: Her text is marked by its light blue color.
- Purity Personified:
- Random Number God: Not herself one, but her birth happening at exactly the right moment for the Eldar/Human alliance to form was the result of a supercritical success (the absolute best possible result).
Corvus Corax, Lord Exodus
Formerly the Raven Lord, Primarch of the Nineteenth Legion, Corax was captured and tormented by the daemons of Tzeentch for millennia. Luckily, Ynnead was able to rescue him and he swiftly became the acting leader of the Exodus Fleet. However, he incurred more scars than the obvious in his long imprisonment, and a spirit of Tzeentch was for some time influencing his judgment, before he overcame it in a Battle in the Center of the Mind.
- Animal Motifs: Ravens, obviously.
- Battle in the Center of the Mind: Fights one against the daemon possessing him when he finally notices its effects on his mind.
- Ship Tease: With Aurora. By this point, may have reached full-on Official Couple status.
Aurora Rosaline Bach, Herald Of Ynnead
When Tzeentch cultists seized control of most of a Titan Legion, a young tech-guard by the name of Aurora Rosaline Bach, not even a princeps, attempted to link to the Emperor Titan Bright Legend to guide it in fighting off her corrupted brethren. The God-Emperor, his own warp form gravely wounded, could not answer her prayers for the strength of will necessary to command the Titan. But another, humanity's new Empress, could and did. The Light Of Ynnead poured through Aurora and Bright Legend to cleanse the corrupted Titans and burn their twisted hijackers to ash. And so was created the first Living Saint of Ynnead.
- Humongous Mecha: Bonded to the Bright Legend, an Emperor-class Titan.
- "The Reason You Suck" Speech: Delivers an epic one to her father, a Magos who was leading a schismatic faction that threatened to tear the Exodus apart. That speech caused him to reverse his course and averted one of the biggest threats to the restoration of the Imperium.
- Ship Tease: With Corvus. By this point, may have reached full-on Official Couple status.
Jaghatai Khan
Formerly the Fifth Primarch, Jaghatai Khan had for millennia been hunting the Dark Eldar through the depths of the Webway. Ynnead was able to retrieve him from the Webway, and in the new realm he took up the responsibility of leading the Space Marines, especially the twenty-five Lexicani of the Chosen Blood, who have neither Chapter traditions nor any experienced Marines to teach them.
- Dual Wielding: Uses his own Relic Blade, Silver Scar, along with Invictus from the Glory or Death quest.
- The Mentor: Has become one to the Chosen Blood Lexicani.
- Shout-Out: Wields Invictus, a Relic Power Sword made famous in the Glory Or Death quest on the same site.
Gorehowl, Da Brainboss
When a bunch of Orkoid spores breached containment, Malcador attempted to purge them with warpfire. Most died, but one instead grew into the first Krork to be born in millennia. He is an ally of the Exodus, if a somewhat unpredictable one.
- The Ageless: Like Orks, Gorehowl will grow until he's killed.
- Badass Bureaucrat: Has a slight (1%) chance to do paperwork every turn as the result of an omake.
- Our Orcs Are Different: Gorehowl is a Krork, a biological warmachine made by the Old Ones to do battle with the undying Necrons.
- Bizarre Alien Biology: Genderless, unconsciously psychic warrior fungus.
- Bizarre Alien Psychology: Kr/orks are instinctive knowledge of war and fighting. Some orks are born with extra knowledge, like engineering or medicine, while Krorks have at least some potential for all Orkish fields and can choose which to develop. They are also a social species with unconscious psychic powers. This resulted in severe mental stress for Gorehowl because he was utterly cut off from any of his own kind.
- Bizarre Alien Reproduction: Kr/orks reproduce by spores. Each orky organism passively gives off a variety of spores while they live and an extra large burst when they die. If they find a place to grow, the spores will become the many different types of orkiod organisms.
- The Leader: Charismatic type. All Orks will instinctively obey a Krork.
- The Medic: Currently focusing his studies on the biological sciences.
- Unpredictable Results: Whereas the players can usually decide what the rest of the Heroes will be doing each turn, Gorehowl's behavior is determined by the GM secretly rolling against a table.
- You Are Not Alone: One of the reasons he was experiencing such mental distress was lack of fellow Orks. The Sovereigns grew him a few friends, and he was a lot more cooperative after that.
Malcador The Sigilite
The Emperor's first and closest friend, reborn from death by the researches of the Afriel Strain.
- The Ageless: As a Perpetual, Malcador's cellular biology works somewhat differently from a normal human's. He doesn't age, and given enough time can heal any wound that doesn't outright kill him.
- First-Name Basis: One of only two people who regularly address the God-Emperor as "Adam".
- The Social Expert: Tends to be tapped when the Exodus needs to engage in diplomacy with someone.
