Dogmatic | Rogue Trader Wiki

Dogmatic is one of the Convictions in the world of Warhammer 40k: Rogue Trader. Convictions are both the moral compass and the sum of choices your Characters make during your playthrough, advancing through their ranks provides mechanical bonuses as well as affecting how the story develops. Being Dogmatic character implies that you value the Imperium values above all and suffer not the heretic, the mutant or the psyker to live. When faced with a traitor your first impulse will always be to execute first and ask questions later.

Rogue Trader Dogmatic Information

 To be counted among the teeming trillions of those who believe in the holiness and infallibility of the Master of Mankind and His innumerable institutions, laws and civic bodies is to be among the majority of the Imperium. You believe that His works and His empire are, above all else, paramount and must need protecting, even if it comes at the expense of individuals. Oft this means adhering to the principles of those who came before, the blessed chosen few, and then bringing these to the ignorant and unruly masses.

Hatred of Mankind’s endless tide of foes defines a member of the Dogmatic school of thought well, whether they be traitor, xenos, mutant or a servant of the Ruinous Powers. And treading down this path often provides the follower with greater boons.
