So It Ends, So It Begins
Originally a sub set of the Imperial cult The Redeemed went dark with rest of that organization, however one lone wandering survivor, infected and near to death came across a set of tracts and texts of the defunct group and began to read them for comfort as the wracking fever and chills over came him. When the change was complete he rose with new purpose, to spread the word of his new faith and destroy the walking dead from within.
Keeping The Faith
The tenets of The Redeemed are fairly simple:
- 1: You have lived your entire life fed and clothed by the Emperor's grace and mercy. For this reason it is your duty to serve His Imperial Majesty in any way you can.
- 2: Not even death can abrogate you of this duty, if you become a 'zombie' all this means is you have a unique chance to fight the enemy on their own terms.
- 3: While you should by all means seek to be revived there is no shame in mastering the ways of war as one of the undead, so long as you do not learn those skills which are only of benefit to the enemy before you have learned all you can as a human.
- 4: In all things you should strive to be an asset to your living brethren, including filing danger reports and seeking to break sieges by getting the zombies to start fighting among themselves. You should especially seek out places where zombies are lairing inside buildings and kill them off, so that the survivors can dump them outside again.
Terms And Jargon
The Redeemed use some non standard terms to file their reports on the buildings they pass in the course of the eternal fight against the dead, a short phrase book follows.
- 'No Virus Signature' = This phrase indicates that when traveling through the city the Redeemed member has passed a building with either no bodies or one square off with the the lights on and no standing zombies.
- 'Tha R!b!!m!b' = This is a Zambah phrase used to declare The Redeemed's presence to the Zombies present, usually in hopes that they will start attacking each other trying to kill the Redeemed members, or move on to easier hunting grounds.
