Developer Owlcat Games has taken to the official site of the upcoming turn-based cRPG Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader to introduce players to another character of the Rogue Trader’s entourage. Meet Yrliet Lanaevyss, the Wandered Among the Stars, a proud Aeldari Ranger.
Rogue Traders are among the few servants of the Emperor who are permitted to interact with xenos, do business with them, and even tolerate aliens as part of their crew so that they may be used for the Imperium’s benefit. Yrliet Lanaevyss may be about to become one such xenos.
Having chosen to walk the Path of the Outcast, Yrliet left the enormous craftworld that her kin called home. She sought to blaze her own trail in a universe that would otherwise lie beyond the reach of Aeldari society, and she followed that desire to distant stars. However, new insights and experiences sometimes come at great cost – as Yrliet is about to discover.
As the darkest hour comes, Yrliet’s and the Rogue Trader’s paths cross and intertwine – and only the God-Emperor knows what this meeting of a xenos and a human will lead to.
Previously, the team has also shared the dev diary part 2, showing off the portraits of some in-game companions and notable NPCs, such as your faithful Seneschal, a dangerous psyker, a zealous Battle Sister, an elusive Aeldari Ranger and even a ferocious Space Wolf.
