The Muckers Union - Necromunda Campaign

The invasion of Scipio by the xenos and the nuclear fallout in the Delta valley http://micromegasatwar.blogspot.com/2017/07/invasion-of-scipio-chapter-1-planetary.html  lead to devastation and unlivable conditions. Even though the invasion was ultimately repelled, the citizens of the planet Scipio and throughout the Empire became terrified of further xenos incursions. This fear provided fertile hunting ground for heretical beliefs and loss in the faith of the Empire’s ability to protect them. Out of this toxic mix cults began to spring up in the underhives and ghettos, some of them worshipping the xenos as demi-gods and the inevitable rulers of mankind.

Deep down in the mines of Necromunda, the muckers work in harsh conditions moving the metals and ore that feeds the refineries. It is not clear how the cult of the xeno-worshipping Genestealers took hold amongst the Muckers Union. It’s been speculated that the cult was started by an unsanctioned psyker, Salom, who was banished to the depths and hard labour of the mines for using his wyrd powers. The psyker went mad after the invasion and managed to turn all of the Muckers to the ways of the Genestealers Cult. The Union not only took over all of the mine’s operations but now seeks to spread the word of xeno worship to the rest of the Empire.
