Hey everybody,

First post here and didn't see a "Introduce yourself" topic, so . . . "Hai" I'm Michel, 23yo from the Netherlands.

I searched around for a DH Houserule Topic but couldn't find that one neither.

Let's make this a General Houserule/DH Houserole topic ? if this post doesn't belong here please let me know ^^

I made a Elite Advance / Alternate career rank for one of my players who plays an Untouchable, I wanted to give him other powers then just a Background package and more in line with Faith/Psychic Powers so I made this, anybody with experience in DH who could provide some feedback ?

Aura of the Abyss. 100xp.
Prerequisite: Untouchable.
Every Perils of the Warp roll that a psyker has to make while in your Untouchable aura is resolved on a random Perils table.(Taken from the DH2.0 Beta and gonna rework it for DH)

Dangers of the Mind
. 200xp.
Prerequisite: Aura of the Abyss.
A psyker rolling for Perils of the Warp adds +10 to his roll when in your Untouchable Aura.

Guardian against the Warp.300xp.
Prerequisite: Dangers of the Mind.
In combat you may use your next Reaction to "absorb" a damaging Psychic power directed against a ally who is in your Untouchable Aura. Only direct powers can be absorbed.

Deny the Witch! 400xp.
Prerequisite: Guardian against the Warp.
The ultimate Untouchable power, by channeling the Void in your soull directly in a Psykers mind you are able to completely sever his connection to the Warp.
The victim must be Helpless for this power to work.
This power takes a lot of time, every stage takes between 1 and 10 minutes, depending on the succes of the Opposed Tests.
For every new stage that the Untouchable wants to force a new Opposed WP must be made.
Stage 0.
Make a Opposed WP test to force your way into the Psykers mind.
Stage 1.
The Psyker loses 1xWPB of random Psychic powers for 1d10 Hours.
Stage 2.
Lose 1 Discipline for 1d10 Hours.
Stage 3.
Lose all Minor Psychic Powers for 1d10 Days.
Stage 4.
Lose all Disciplines for 1d10 Days.
Stage 5.
Permanently lose 1 Psy Rating.
Stage 6.
Permanently lose all Psy Ratings.

Power of the Soulless.
Level 1:
Increase you Untouchable Aura by 5 meters. 100xp.
Level 2:
Add an additional 5 meters to your aura. 200xp.
Level 3:
Add an additional 5 meters to your aura. 300xp.

Any help and criticism is greatly appreciated ^^
