| abstract | - In early M36, in the midst of the Age of Apostasy, warp storm instances increased and warp travel became impossible between most planets. In the midst of the time of chaos, a small group of Administratum Adepts met in secret and vowed to form the Adeptus, to recruit the very finest Navigators and re-map and re-forge the Imperium. Though the Imperium was decaying and corrupt, they were men and women of integrity, who feared both for the Imperium and for their lives: Goge Vandire was insane, and they hoped that with this new Adeptus they would be able both to help stabilize the Imperium, and to escape from Terra and get beyond the bloodthirsty reach of Goge Vandire. It is said that Vandire had a huge map of the galaxy plotting the up to date warp storm movements so that whenever a new planet was revealed, he could send out a fleet to reinstate his will; it was the Adeptus Cartographum that contributed most to this infamous map, their exploring work twisted into a tool of bloody conquest.
