In Rogue Trader, players take the role of a Rogue Trader and their crew as they operate outside the stellar and legal boundaries of the Imperium of Man (Imperium). The game allows for many other missions, including wiping out dangerous gangs, gathering evidence of corruption, dealing with alien threats or eliminating rogue psykers. Since the players work for an Inquisitor, most missions involve rooting out heresies or matters relating to them. The Game Master is able to tailor their campaign to suit their player group through this flexibility. Depending on the type of mission, gameplay can involve investigation, combat, intrigue, or other genres. In Dark Heresy, the players assume the roles of Acolytes working for an Inquisitor, who sends them on various missions.
