Character Art of Dark Heresy

These character portraits by David Gallagher appear in Dark Heresy, the Warhammer 40,000 roleplaying game. They could be used to give you ideas for PCs or NPCs in your own games. We have thought up quick examples of the sort of people these characters could be, but their descriptions are by no means definitive and we encourage you to use your own imaginations when naming these individuals and deciding on their backgrounds.


With his casting bones and tarot-telling machine this individual seems concerned with the future.

A lady of the Imperium, beguiling and elegant in her bustle, bonnet and bandoliers.

The lauded and dandy Rogue Trader Isreal Haand.

Wounded men and women place themselves in the tender care of the Imperium's Chiurgeons.

A senior hive-world pest controller and his personal servitor on the lookout for vermin.

A devotee of the Imperial Cult undertakes a pilgrimage.

A regal and splendid member of the Imperial nobility.

This individual bears the panopoly and mien of the Tech Adepts of Mars.
