“For Hearth and Kin”
Older than the Imperium and unbowed by ten thousand years of galactic ruin, the Kin of the Leagues of Votann emerged from isolation to reclaim their birthright: the mineral wealth of a thousand worlds, and vengeance against the Orks and Aeldari who once nearly wiped them out. Each League venerates the digital ancestors of a bygone golden age, their essences housed in the Cryptotraveller each Hearthkyn Warrior carries into battle, granting tactical wisdom beyond mortal reckoning. Riding grav-tanks and wielding plasma-forged weapons, the squat, powerfully-built Kin dig in, hold the line, and grind down any who would deny them their claim. To the rest of the galaxy they are an unexpected, implacable new player — hard as the rock from which they hew their fortunes.
