Athene

General

Athena is fit as a front line soldier should be. Her hair cut into a bob just off the shoulders and naturally is dark brown but is colored in the traditional white of the Adepta Sororitas. She wears black powered armor adorned with the fleur de lis and crimson livery. Tattooed in red on her right cheek is the fleur de lis.

Athena is level headed with a sharp analytical mind. As a bit of a free thinker, Athena has often found herself at odds with her superiors within the Adepta Sororitas.


Wargear

Sororitas Power Armor: A lighter version of the powered armor worn by the genetically altered, Adeptus Astartes, the Sororitas Power Armor provides protection against physical threats as well as increased strength.

Godwyn-De'az Pattern Bolter: A smaller variant of the Astartes bolter, the Godwyn-De'az was designed for use by regular humans. In addition to firing .75 cal explosive kinetic rounds, the weapon also features an attachment for a bayonet type weapon called a Sarissa.

Power Sword: A gift for her service to the Ordo Hereticus of the Inquisition.

Squad

Sister Caroline: Athene's second in command. Spirited and gruff, Caroline has been a good counterweight to Athene's often level headed and somber personality. Sister Caroline is also a Sister Retributor, specializing in the use of heavy weapons. Athene and Caroline have had a long history together going back to their days in the Schola Progenia.

Sister Rena:

Not a member of the orders militant, Sister Rena is a member of the orders hospitaller and has served as the squad's medicae for the past year. Soft spoken and timid, it is easy to mistake her slight form as weak. Rena has served along side Athene's squad in numerous campaigns and is largely considered by all to be a part of the squad.

Sister Amelia: Jovial and free spirited, Amelia has often been verbally reprimanded by Athene. Despite this, Amelia is considered one of Athene's finest warriors.

Sister Irene: Irene is the newest member of the squad. A competent fighter, Irene has yet to find her place within the team.

Sister Cassandra: Cassandra is a Sister Dominion, specializing in assault weapons. She often prefers to carry a stormbolter into battle. Cassandra is very hot tempered and zealous in battle.

Sister Ilea: Sister Ilea, is holds a special position within the squad. Her body bares the scars, not just of battle, but of the flagellation she endured as a Repentia. The nature of the infraction which led her to join the ranks of the penitent is known only to Athene and Caroline, and the two have strongly discouraged the curiosity of the other sisters. The fact that Ilea had joined the Repentia, and found redemption before death spoke enough as to her character and faith and should serve as an example to the others.

Sister Eva: Sister Eva is by all accounts, the most pious of the squad. During hymnals, her voice is often described as that of an angel proclaiming the beneficence of the God Emperor. Her knowledge of scripture is unrivalled and her faith unquestioned. She often leads her sisters in prayer, and has been granted the special honor of being designated to carry the Simulacrum Imperialis whenever the presence of such a relic graces the squad.

Sister Jocelyn:

Sister Clarice: Sister Clarice is the only member of the squad who was born and grew up on Holy Terra and led a largely sheltered life in regards to the threats that face humanity throughout the galaxy compared to her sisters. Despite this, she has proven to be a capable warrior, and has more than earned the respect of Athene and Caroline.

Sister Nadia: Sister Nadia spent most of her childhood on the ice world of Valhalla. Her parents were officers in the Imperial Guard who were killed defending the planet from an ork invasion.

Sister Lydia: Sister Lydia is a Mordian, and one of the remaining original members of Athene's squad. She is fiercely loyal to her superior and has helped shoulder the burden of many campaigns.

Sister Mjoll: Mjoll is the squad's close combat specialist. She was born on the death world of Fenris.

Sister Serana: Sister Serana was born on the planet of Baal, the home world of the Blood Angels. Her parents were serfs in the service of the Blood Angels. Both were killed during the Tyranid invasion that decimated the planet.

Sister Rayya: Sister Rayya grew up in the lower tiers of the hives of Necromunda. Where it not for the bounty hunter, Kal Jerico, she likely would have grown up to be one of the many faceless gangers who's lives would be cut short in the endless violence of the underhive wars.

Sister Njada:
