Cassandra

by DM B  

If this had been a just world then the third Sister, Sister Cassandra, would have been in charge of the whole thing.

As one of the first and brightest Daughters She is trained in infiltration and the ways of the Imperium by Kimery herself. She has learned the Word at feet of Castor and knows the Book as well as all Word Bearers. Tactics and strategy lessons come from Fragmin (and she has learned her lessons well). As one of the first and most fanatical Daughters she has learned combat from Castors bodyguard and they do know their warcraft.

So in short it should have been her, she is smarter and more skilled; but she is not a WB (when the Deacons and Kimery made the infiltrator groups for Castor the plan was for the Daughters to lead them). But when the Apostle took to the idea and even blessed it with some of his WB to lead it, there was much rejoicing and psalms sung to his and the gods' undying glory. And as any good Daughter she will submit to the champion of the Apostle.

But Cassandra still has hope, she knows how good she is and she knows that the gods (and the Apostle and Kimery) test you constantly. She can still try to influence Alfonzo (manipulate is a bad, and heretical word, so we won't use that), use all her skill and charm to make sure that the infiltration group succeeds so that she can be rewarded with a coven of her own, ships and a proper command for that fate is written in the stars.

After many years in the field Cassandra has risen to become the Domina of the Broken Dreams.

She's probably rather jealous of Captain Kathryn's command, feeling that she's even better suited than her.

After Xandor, Cassandra has been raised to the office of chaplain for the 10th Company under Brother Captain Sigismund. It was Cassandra who stood firm on the Blood Eagle during the foul attack by the minions of the fallen corps-god. Castor and the Brothers of the Crow eaters was on the ground sealing there holly pacts, when the traitor struck, lead by a handful of fallen marines they took control of the cyclone_torpedo rooms aboard the Blood Eagle and launched several plant killer missiles ground side. Cassandra lead loyalist in a counter attack, preventing the launch of several missiles and giving the Chapter time to re board the ship. The traitor cut down the loyalist ratings and crew in great number and wounded Cassandra severely, but she kept singing the gospel of the true Gods and quoiting from the sermons of light she stayed in the fight. The Traitor gathered there remaining Astardes strength in the torpedo room, and targeted the rally point of the defenders, Cassandra. It looked dark indeed for the loyalist, but she had one more card to play, she was in contact with her Apostle and by giving her very essence to fuel the mighty spells of the Arch priest of the pantheon, she made her self a beacon for Castor, so that he could transfer him self to her side. Her just reward for her loyalty and zeal wordy of a true born Legionary of the 17th,singing the praise of the Gods and her Apostel as all burn around her,willing to die and lead others with her, keeping there moral up and the fighting spirit high regardless of odds or outcome, takes a very special kind of servant of the host. Those servants are called Chaplains. Castor wants loyal fighting Chaplains and where his brothers fell short in both loyalty and faith(in him) Cassandra did not and she will pass that zeal on to them or they will die trying.
