I'm planning to host an RP, featuring a squad of Sororitas Sisters aiding a Witch Hunter of the Ordo Hereticus in their mission.

There are four slots in total, first come first served.

Players will take the role of the Sisters, with specialties to be picked from the following list:

• Battle Sister • Seraphim • Retributor

• Dominion

• Celestian

I excluded Redemptia Sisters since they're a special case and usually not deployed with other, regular Sisters.

Weapons and equipment may be picked from the armoury of the Sororitas. Alternative link here. Note that unique items and artifacts aka Relics are an exception and may not be used, simply because they're unique and usually associated with a certain character.

So far, this RP is planned to involve mainly NPC combat, so it's not too strict. Of course, that's not a pass to throw reason (in the context of 40K) out of the window. For most encounters, I will roll a d20 to determine the outcome of an action.

''The Shrine World Sylvain, home to the Order Militant of the Vermillion Tears. 1000 years ago, in M38, the world was shrouded by one of Nurgle's foul plagues, raking a bloody toll among the citizens of the planet. Witnessing millions of deaths, a simple Sister of the Sororitas, by the name of Roselle, struck by grief at the suffering of mankind, started to shed vermillion tears. The tears were a blessing of the Emperor, able to heal the sickness holding the planet in it's suffocating grip. To honor her and the mircale the Emperor conducted through her, your convent was founded to protect the shrines erected in Her and His honor.''

''For as long as you can remember, the halls, rooms and yards of the Convent, it's statues, alcoves, candles and books have been your home. Like many of your fellow Sisters, you were an orphan, robbed of or abandoned by your parents and given into the care of the Ecclesiarchy. To repay this kindness, you were raised to defend the word of the Emperor, if necessary with the holy trinity of Bolter, Flamer and Melta.''

''Every single day is a strict routine, from eating and sleeping to prayer and the study of holy texts over combat practice to hours of meditation, aimed to harden your spirit against the influence of corruption. You are a Sororitas, the Eccesiarchy's fighting arm and humanity's first defense against the Mutant, the Witch and the Heretic.''

''Today, you and other chosen sisters face your first deployment as fully-introduced Battle Sisters, chosen by your Prioress to assist an Inquisitor of the Holy Inquisition in their quest, whatever it may be, wherever it may lead, whatever it may take. ''
