My Tech priest choose to kill a machine spirit in order to remove only the Memcoil of a Local Cognitor ( or however you spell it ). Basicly I removed a harddrive from the computer instead of taking the entire motherboard and tower still intact. It was a mission based choice.

The building we are in is on fire. We know next to nothing about these people or what in the world is going on, So with the fire closing in I did what I had to do and took the memcoil which weighs a lot less so i could quickly move away from the fire. My focus was on completing my task, and trying to gain information about potential xenos threat and incursion into this hive we are in.

Anyway. This is a Tech Heresy, the in game effects aside. My question is; To my character.. Would he consider himself damned? Should he contimplate suicide, or reavaluate his faith? Should my character confess to the other tech priest in the group who is unaware i've done this. I'm honestly unsure with how to approach this particular character development path and would appreciate some advice. I've been reading over the Lath worlds book and although it has answered several of my questions and cured my massive confusion about who the tech priests are up I've not yet read the part detailing something like this. I might before anyone answers but still, let me know.

Right now hes kinda having a insane moment, the relization of what he did for his mission has slowly sank in as if the smoke from the building was somehow a veil on his mind. Hes crumpled on the ground, his mind spinng... melodrama melodrama ect ect. hes only got a total of 14 corruption. but its the fact that he killed a machine spirit. How much of a big deal should i play this off as?
