Origins in Rogue Trader are past stories that can be given to the main character in order to fill their individual lore with a past that goes better with the characterization the player wants to give to their protagonist. Origins not only add Lore content to the protagonist, each Origin comes with a range of special bonuses, Abilities, and Stats buffs. This along with the Homeworld and Archetype will define how your character will play and fight. Origins are generally very well-balanced to one another, so there is not a “better” Origin to choose, other than what's best to your personal gameplay style.
