This page contains information on the events of the Death Unto Darkness campaign to date.


Timelines and History

  • Timeline of the Prosperitas Sector contains information on the History of the Prosperitas Sector up to 596.M41. You can use this as a quick reference for important dates in the Imperial history of the sector.

These provide a quick summary of what happened at previous Campaign Events.

  • Campaign 1 - Part 1 contains a narrative summary of Death Unto Darkness events 1-6, which ran from 2016-2019.
  • Campaign 1 - Part 2 contains a narrative summary of Death Unto Darkness events 7-11 which ran from 2022-2025.


A Note on Dates

Death Unto Darkness is set 38,575 years in the future, and time passes IC at roughly the same rate as it does OC (with exceptions for Warp travel and narrative convenience).

  • In general, if trying to calculate Today's IC date you can assume that the month and day are the same as they are OC.
  • The current year is 600.M41 in 2025, 601.M41 in 2026, 602.M41 in 2027 and so on.
  • There is a spreadsheet which helps calculate the current correct IC date here.


Plot Updates

Prosperitas Sector Reports

These are IC reports produced by NPC agents of the Prosperitas Conclave and published to all Acolytes.

Conclave Updates

Conclave Updates are sporadically sent out as requests for information, judgements and other details sent Astropathically to all servants of the Inquisition within the Prosperitas Sector. They come from the Conclave of Inquisitors who form the Ordos Prosperitas, the combined body of the Inquisition within the Prosperitas Sector.

Prosperitas Gazetteer

These are narratives which trailer future plots and provide colour and flavour about incidents across the Sector. They are written by the Game Team. They do not represent IC information your character has access to.
