ORDO HERETICUS

Inquisitor Soldevan
(See core rulebook page 321 for appearance and personality.) Soldevan was the protege of one Inquisitor Tristan Elks, Ordo Hereticus, now deceased. Elks had good connections among rogue traders, and was fairly puritan in leanings, a close ally of Inquisitor Zayel's. Soldevan earned his rosette for thwarting (and supressing knowledge of) a serious chaos incursion on Quaddis. He is friends with Johnathan Summerset.

Magister Drackon Krayl
Few can call themselves more a victim of the Malygrisian tech-heresy than then man now called Drackon Krayl. Krayl was a venerated Magos at the outbreak of the Heresy in 742. But he was also apprentice to an apprentice of Malygris. And unbeknownst to him, a great many of his implants were actually xenos in origin. He discovered this during the course of the great hunt for Malygris.

Horrified that his very body had been turned against his own tenets, Krayl had the presence of mind to take revenge rather than despair. Realizing that Krayl was pure in mind if not in body, Nocteun secretly helped the Magos remove all of the tainted implants, and gave him a job as lorekeeper. Krayl's former identity is a secret known only to himself and the Inquisitor Lord.

Krayl had to be outfitted with some technology simply to keep him functioning, though he had what he could removed. Krayl knows he can never openly go back to his cult, but rigorously observes all the rites to the machine spirits around him. He is a vigilant and suspicious man, covered with odd scars from his many surgeries. He wears simple brown robes, and has a few odd patches of gray hair across his otherwise misshapen head. Over the years he has learned to mimic some human mannerisms, but is still a source of frequent faux pas, and not very talkative.

Technology is at once still a source of awe, wonder, and fear for the poor man. But he is adamant in his hate of xenos, and particularly xeno-tech (which he is none the less an expert in). Re-assigned to Soldevan's retinue after Nocteun's death.

Haze Triplan
Haze wears leather clothes with too many buckles. His muddy black and brown hair whips after him in a long braid, and a pair of well-polished revolvers are always at his side. To any Scintillan the black power scent of Gunmetal City practically wafts off of him. Re-assignment status since Nocteun's death, unknown.

Freidrick Iandus
Iandus is one of the Inquisitor's senior retinue members. He is a sanctioned psyker with an affinity for telekinesis. Too many mind-shattering missions and a long relationship with the warp have left him with a few noticeable quirks. He is unable to shake a sensation that the physical world is clumsy and imprecise. This displays itself as constant motion: pacing as he strives he find a position where he is comfortable, frequent shifting of posture as he tries to avoid contact with his robes. He is terse of speech and short-tempered, his mind caught up in a constant battle with the temptation to over-use his abilities to avoid interacting with the physical world. So far he has managed to keep control, but he is certainly under scrutiny, especially with the past indiscretions of other trusted agents... Friedrick was taken on a black ship and sanctioned in his youth, before eventually being recruited out of the Scholastica Psykana for Inquisitorial service. A native of Dreah, he is thin and greyish-skinned, with a pointed chin and colorless hair. He bears a sanctioning brand prominently on his forehead.

Re-assignment since Nocteun's death, unknown.

Victory needs no explanation.
