Should you accept Theodora’s help on the Upper Decks in Rogue Trader?

Should you accept?

Choices are some of the hardest things we must make in RPGs like Rogue Trader. Fortunately, my guide will tell you if you should accept Thedora's Help on the Upper Decks.

What happens if you accept Theodora's help in Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader?

During the prologue in Rogue Trader, you will eventually meet Theodora coming out of a wall of fire, offering help on the Upper Decks. Immediately after the offer, Sister Argenta claims Theodora is a vision of the warp (spoilers below).

If you ignore Argenta's warning and accept Theodora's help, you will take the first step in falling into chaos.

But if you do not wish to be a heretic, do not accept Theodora's help, as accepting it is the first step in falling chaos. If you accept the help, you will have a special event where the chaos god Tzeentch tries to make you a champion.

Accepting Theodroa's help also teleports your party to the Rogue Trader's armory, where you can find a unique chaos weapon. Inside the armory called the Corrupted Inferno Pistol, and to use the Pistol, you must have Melta Weapon Proficiency and Heretical Adherent Conviction rank.

If you want to fall to chaos in Rogue Trader after accepting Theoroda's help, you must travel toward Rykard Minoris. The event starts with you inside your quarters on your void ship when ghosts of the fallen crew appear to haunt you.

You have three options to respond to the situation:

  • Step back! Step back, or else.
  • Kneel before the Rogue Trader! Your lives belong to me!.
  • Stop! I did not wish for any of you to die!.

The best choice is the Kneel before the Rogue Trader option if you want to fall into chaos. After demanding the ghosts to kneel, the Lord of Change will make his intentions known to you. If you're going to fall into chaos, choose the dialogue option Yes, O Lord of Change. Note you only have one option left to turn back after you select this option.

After accepting your fate, Tzeentch will dictate your fate to become the Weaver of Destinies. Continuing down this path also requires you to find the Second dawn from another aspirant of the Lord of Change. You can find the Second Dawn by traveling to the planet Rykard Minoris.

But before you go to Rykard Minoris, you must make one final dialogue choice: Pick up the shard. Picking up the shard seals the deal, and you will become permanently marked by the ruinous powers.
