So, my Dark Heresy group finally finished our last adventure. It was a mystery. There was a final showdown on an airship.
I wrote it up. It's long. Enjoy.

I furthur take it that you think me a skulking cutthroat who kills with knives and poison. Mister Investigator, when I want to kill a man, I tell him so. I let him choose the weapons. And then I shoot him, face to face, before witnesses. I assure you, Mister Investigator, that I arrived on world six weeks ago, and could not possibly have been involved in any of your killings that occured before then." |

Their man had been murdered months ago, and they still demanded to be kept informed of every move in the investigation. The hum of the hive had faded as the daycycle passed midnight, but he had work to do yet. |

Leibowitz 11/25/08(Tue)00:50 No.3059179"Ah, gladly." Luc strode into the room and cleared his throat. "We investigated the orphanage run by victim 13, Calliope Knowles. We discovered a distressing quantity of foul heresy and no children. We discovered that the children had been routed through Kylos Shipping, Lord Nestor Royce-Kylos' company. We've spent the day investigating, interrogating, and in Varn's case pulverising our way up their chain of command. You have a number of middle managers in the cells and infirmary, by the way. In the process we discovered ties between Kylos Shipping and several of the other victims, and also heresy. For example, Lord Royce-Kylos recently secretly arranged for the construction of a 500-meter flying station from Adonicus Air Systems, which the deceased techpriest, a filthy heretic, helped construct. Our investigation was halted one step away from Lord Royce-Kylos himself, at his personal assistant. The assistant has been abducted by an arbiter; Matsuka, we're fairly certain, as he seems to have gone missing. So it seems likely Matsuka was your murderer, and your rogue Arbiter, and the man who framed me and sullied my good name. So we're off to arrest him." |

The Valkyrie is going to hail them, demand they let them land and hand over Matsuka. That's the distraction. We land on top of the airship, break in, and investigate. We find Royce-Kylos, we arrest him. We find Matsuka, we arrest him. Anyone who fires upon us or gets in our way is guilty of obstructing the most holy Inquisition, sentence death, to be carried out immediatly. Varn will be rear guard, then Miss Warwick. Auditor Decarabas in the center, collecting evidence. DuCassius and I lead. Load up, armor up, stay together. Gasmasks and nightgoggles on." |

Somewhere in the crowd to his left, Isen screamed as the man with the chain dislocated his arm. Varn was beginning to worry. Then a volley of autogun fire rang out behind him. He turned to see the techpriest, Warwick, falling. Blue-uniformed Gendarmes in riot gear turned their guns toward him. He cursed, and dove to the side. |

She wrapped her arms arond him and lowered her perfect face to his neck. Her tongue wriggled down his shirt and licked his chest. Her mouth opened wide, revealing rows of ravishing needle-sharp teeth. |

Then, during a thoroughly botched investigation on Cosflame, he went Daemonhost and... kind of doomed the entire planet. And forced Isen to make a pact. And sent Varn running across the desert buck-naked except for a stolen bolter. Nudity+stolen weapon is now referred to as Varn's "standard uniform." |
