Hey all, long time lurker first time poster and all that. Got bitten by the Necromunda bug again and wanted to show off some lore and build projects I'm going to be doing. So far most of my stuff has been basic paints on the old metal Redemptionists but I recently got an alarming number of kits with the intent of kitbashing an entry for every YakComp since the first as a way to kickstart my hobby. I like the idea of in world lore explanations so tried my hand at it below as an introduction to my hive.

+++++TRANSMITTED: Research Station Iota Tau, Hive Misericordia, Necromunda
++++++++RECEIVED: Gathalamor
+++++DESTINATION: Segmentum Solar Division, Logos Historica Verita, Terra
++++++++++++DATE: 5084025.M42
+TELEPATHIC DUCT: Halloryon Wintermere
+++++++++++++REF: Adm/42689831122856015839/SR
+++++++CLEARANCE: Violet
++++++++++AUTHOR: Aether Ithris, Enginseer 3rd Rank
+++++++++SUBJECT: Initial Surveillance Report
+++++++++THOUGHT: Opinions Always Pass; Facts Remain Eternal
The listening post within Hive Misericordia has been established without
incident. The native inhabitants seem to care little for newcomers beyond
extracting protection tithes from them.
The primary faction seems to be the various schism groups of the Brotherhood
of the First Flame. All groups hold the belief that somewhere within the hive
is the first flame lit by mankind on this world and that they are the one true
stewards of it. According to planetary records this is impossible as first
planetfall was elsewhere but this fact does not discourage frequent purges of
"non-believers" whenever a hive sector changes hands.

Due to its relative isolation and limited value the hive is of little interest
the the Great Houses. Occasionally, House related gangs will be dispatched to
look for deserters or interesting artifacts but otherwise ignore the hive
entirely. Only House Greim seems to show any interest, using the hab sectors as
a live fire training ground for urban combat. Patrol Cadre Messer have made
themselves known to us in this sector and wished to pass along assurances of
loyalty.

Additional dossiers will be transmitted when appropriate surveillance has
been completed.
Lastly, there exists a pervasive belief in the hive that hidden somewhere deep
in the oldest sectors is a powerful piece of archeotech. Described as both the
"analus" and the "astra porta" it is said to be guarded by an ancient xenos
psyker of great power. Teams have been deployed to ascertain the truth of these
rumors and to secure the object if it exists.
Praise the Omnissiah!
