Converting Dark Heresy Powers to Rogue Trader Techniques This is what I've got so far. More will follow.

Minor Powers: As the concept of Minor Powers does not exist in RT, I will be div vying these up between the Disciplines, putting them where they best (which usua lly means most thematically) fit. Overbleed X: The difference between a successful roll and the target number on a Focus Power roll equals the Overbleed generated by a Focus Power Test. The maxi mum amount of Overbleed that may be generated is equal to the Psyker's Willpower Bonus times the Psy Rating used for that Focus Power Test. This Overbleed may b e expended on Overbleed Bonuses. X is equal to the amount of Overbleed that must be 'spent' to trigger a given Overbleed Bonus. An Overbleed Bonus can only be t riggered once per such expenditure. Unless otherwise noted, Overbleed Bonuses ar e cumulative and stack with each other. Sorcery: Sorcerer Talent:When a character first gains the Sorcerer Talent, he gains his W illpower Bonus + his Intelligence Bonus x 300 XP to spend on Arcana. Arcana can replicate Psychic Techniques, though when manifested as Arcana, these suffer a 2 penalty on the Focus Power Roll. A Sorcerer is not constrained by prerequisite s or Disciplines when selecting Psychic Techniques. Basic Psychic Techniques may be purchased for 100 XP each. A Sorcerer can gain Arcana Mastery, in much the s ame way a Psyker can gain Mastery over a discipline by knowing 8 or more Arcana. This talent is otherwise identical to the one in Disciples of the Dark Gods and Radical's Handbook. Sublime Arcana: When using this Talent, a Sorcerer can use Arcana without the us ual somatic and verbal components required, albeit at the cost of increasing the difficulty of manifesting it, causing him to suffer a -2 penalty on the Focus P ower Roll. This talent is otherwise identical to the one in Disciples of the Dar k Gods and Radical's Handbook. Learning Arcana: Learning or developing new Arcana is an iterative process that typically requires painstaking prolonged study, research and experimentation. When a character wishes to study or develop a new Arcana, he must make an Easy ( +30) Forbidden Lore(Warp) or Routine (+20) Scholastic Lore(Occult) Test. For eve ry 100 XP of an Arcana's cost, this Test requires 1d5 hours of study to complete (minimum of 1 hour). If the Arcana being studied is Major, this Test requires d ouble the normal amount of time to complete. This Test may be spread out over an y number of days. The character subtracts his Intelligence Bonus, and the number of degrees of success on this Test from the hours of required to complete the T est, to a minimum of 1 hour. At the GM's discretion, certain useful referential materials, such as Malefic Codexes (Disciples of the Dark Gods, Page 120) may pr ovide a bonus to this Test. Whether or not the Forbidden Lore(Warp) or Scholastic Lore(Occult) Test is succe ssful, the character must make an Easy (+30) Willpower Test as the baleful natur e of the knowledge gained through the character's malign scholarship exerts a co rrosive effect on his psyche and soul. The Difficulty of this Willpower Test dec reases by one step per degree of success on either of these Skill Tests, represe nting astute mastery of these dark studies and the slight measure of protection this extent of understanding affords. On a failure, and for each degree of failu re on the Willpower Test, the character gains 1 Corruption and Insanity Point, d oubling this amount if the Arcana is Major.

In order to fully and successfully learn an Arcana, the character must accumulat e a total number of degrees of success from these Forbidden Lore(Warp) and/or Sc holastic Lore(Occult) Tests equal to its XP cost divided by 100. If the Arcana b eing studied is Major, double the total degrees of success required. Subtract ea ch degree of failure accumulated from this total to a minimum of 0. After the co mpletion of this step, the learned Arcana may then be used as normal by the char acter when he expends its XP cost to complete his mastery of it, or half of that cost, if learned through a medium other than experimentation. The Difficulty of all Tests above is increased by one step per 100 XP the Arcana to be learned costs, and by an additional one step if that Arcana is Major. Whi le anyone may learn Arcana in this way, only Daemons, Warp Entities, and those w ith the Sorcerer and/or Master Sorcerer Talents (Disciples of the Dark Gods, Pag e 117) may actually utilize it. Characters with the Sorcerer Talent reduce the D ifficulty of these Tests by one step, while those with the Master Sorcerer Talen t reduce their Difficulty by two steps, reflecting the impact of their superior skill, knowledge and mastery over the Dark Arts. Arcana: Bolt of Change Value: 400 XP Focus Power Test: Willpower Sustained: No Focus Time: Half Action Range: 20m * Psy Rating The user discharges an amorpheous ball of roiling, prismatic energy at the targe t. He must make a Willpower Test to hit; this otherwise counts as a normal range d attack. If the bolt hits a living target, he must succeed at a Very Hard (-30) Willpower Test or suffer one random, Mutation per degree of failure. If the target alread y has the rolled mutation, he takes 1d10 R Damage, ignoring Toughness and Armour as his body haphazardly flows and reforms with lethal consequence. Should the t arget fail his Willpower Test by 5 or more degrees, he instantly degenerates int o a mindless Chaos Spawn. Should this bolt strike a non-living entity or inanimate object, it instead deal s 1d10 R Damage per Arcana Psy Rating, with the Warp Weapon Quality as it buckle s, twists, melts and transmutes the target completely at random. For each 9 roll ed on the Damage dice, permanently reduce the Armour Points of the stricken area by 1. This attack can be dodged in the same manner as any other ranged attack. Overbleed 9: Increase this Arcana's effective Psy Rating by 1, OR the user may l aunch another bolt at a target within Range. Create Door Value: 500 XP Focus Power Test: Willpower Sustained: Yes Focus Time: Full Action Range: 2m * Psy Rating The user creates a burning portal through the warp to a place he'd like to go. T his place may be anywhere the user can clearly recall in his mind. Upon entering , the user must succeed on a Forbidden Lore (Warp) Test that the Arcana's Psy Ra ting permits at an appropriate difficulty set by the GM as per the following lis t, or the GM chooses an alternate destination; typically this is one the user wo uld wish to avoid: 1-9m: Easy (+30), Psy Rating 1 10-100m: Routine (+20), Psy Rating 1 101-1000m: Ordinary (+10), Psy Rating 1 Anywhere on a planet: Challenging (+0), Psy Rating 1

Anywhere within a system: Difficult (-10), Psy Rating 2 Anywhere within a sub-sector: Hard (-20), Psy Rating 3 Anywhere within a sector: Very Hard (-30), Psy Rating 4 Anywhere within a segmentum: Arduous (-40), Psy Rating 5 Anywhere within a galaxy: Punishing (-50), Psy Rating 6 Anywhere within the universe: Hellish (-60 or worse), Psy Rating 7+ If a character does not have the Forbidden Lore(Warp) skill as a Trained Skill, he uses it as a Basic Skill. Whether or not the Intelligence Test is successful, anyone entering the portal m ust succeed at a Willpower Test of the same Difficulty, or be subject to Perils of the Warp. The portal lasts as long as it's sustained + 1d5 Rounds + the Technique's effect ive Psy Rating unless prematurely dismissed by its creator. Overbleed 10: Decrease the difficulty of all Tests by one step, or increase the Technique's effective Psy Rating by 1. Disease Value: 300 XP Focus Power Test: Willpower Sustained: No Focus Time: Half Action Range: 2m * Psy Rating The user inflicts a warp spawned disease upon a target within Range.

If any one of his Characteristics are reduced to 0 in this way, the target dies immediately, his soul is forfeit to Nurgle, while his body rises as a Plaguebea rer 5 Rounds later. Overbleed 5: Increase the duration of the disease by 1 Round. Death's Messenger Value: 100 XP Focus Power Test: Willpower Sustained: No Focus Time: Half Action Range: Self The next attack made by the Sorcerer counts as having the Tearing Quality. If th e attack already has the Tearing Quality, he rolls an additional damage dice, an d takes the best result. If Arcana Psy Rating * 5 Rounds elapse without striking a blow, the effect dissipates. Overbleed 10: The effects of this Arcana apply to an additional attack. OR incre ase this Arcana's effective Psy Rating by 1. Daemon Wrack Value: 300 XP Focus Power Test: Willpower Sustained: No Focus Time: Full Action Range: 25m * Psy Rating By weaving a pattern of Warp energies, the user may attempt to repel, ensnare or seize command of Daemonic entities. The user makes an Opposed Willpower Test against a target with the Daemonic and Warp Instability Traits to inflict Malediction on that target. If the user succe eds by 3 degrees of success or more on this Opposed Willpower Test, the user may attempt a Daemonic Mastery Test against the target instead. If the target has a Willpower of 10 times the Arcana's Psy Rating or less, the u ser may immediately attempt a Daemonic Mastery Test instead. With respect to det ermining whether the user may enact this option, increase the effective Willpowe r of the Daemon by 10 per Unnatural Willpower Multiplier.

Overbleed 5: The user gains a +10 bonus on this Arcana's Opposed Willpower and D aemonic Mastery Tests, OR increase this Arcana's effective Psy Rating by 1.

Doublings for multiple Overbleed bonuses used togethe r in this way are multiplicative. At the beginning of each Round you sustain this Technique, you may change its Ov erbleed Bonuses as you wish.
