there is sororitas short story, where you follow a sister diologous court up in a war while excavating an ancient ruined cathedral and finds a sacred relic diary of a sainted sororitas, her inner thought monoluge is clear about her being a giant nerd in Imperial theological terms and is more troubled by the danger to the book and that someone might not follow her research than her own safety and finds this whole battle distracting and counter-productive... I think she atleast wound up where she would find some enjoyment of her work.

Just being an imperial adept means you're in an elite role. Even as a chump guardsman, you serve Him directly and that immediately puts you above most of the population and local governments.

The SoB are my favorite Imperium faction because I think they're the most 40K faction in 40K. They're a fascinating and terrifying parody of the blending of religion, politics, and militarism taken to the far extremes that make Warhammer what it is. Plus, all their models are just so extra, like one of their tanks is a pipe organ that shoots missiles. Amazing.

In this situation there could be some asshole demon deciding to gradually warp the images using magic and such, to twist the minds in a subconscious level, and the Sisters are the only ones pure and maniacal enough to dedicate themselves to checking the minute details of the windows, just in case

You mentioned the legal loophole of "No standing men-at-arms" "We are not men" a lot here but I think it's worth saying that the main reason this was ignored (the lords of Terra could have easily called BS on it and separated them if they wanted) is that Alicia Dominica and her following killed Goge Vandire. It'd be like if after WWII Germany was allowed a standing army, but it was the army of Russia. They weren't just there to act as their forces but also to keep their new leaders in line and remind them of what would happen if they tried to subvert the Imperium or invade Poland again.

The Sisters are briefly mentioned in the very first Rogue Trader rulebook, where they are said to be a force organised like the Space Marines (when Marines were more indoctrinated shock troops of the Imperium than the biologically engineered combat monsters they became a couple of years later), working for the Adeptus Minisorum, who sought out and purge heresy and mutants in the Imperial administration. A lot of the basic framework was there right from the start (including the division between the two Synods), but then (as far as I am aware) they didn't do anything with it until they published the Sisters of Battle Codex in the late years of 2nd edition (1997, over 10 years since they had first been mentioned). That book introduced the whole background of Goge Vandire, and the Decree Passive etc, and made them more distinct from Space Marines. Since then the lore has mostly been the same, with some embellishments and further detail added over time. That first description in Rogue Trader accompanied a picture of "Sister Sin", a power armoured woman wearing a wimple (with fluer-de-lis on it) shooting a Space Marine of the Rainbow Warriors Chapter. Now, this isn't *confirmed* to be a Sister of Battle, but it is often considered a proto-Sister. The picture is also possibly a reference to the sinking of Greenpeace's ship "The Rainbow Warrior" by French commandos (the fleur-de-lis being long historically been associated with France), which had happened just the year before 40k was first published.

Though the Sisters had no list of their own (hardly any race did back then), they did have a couple of miniatures. When it came to presenting the Sisters in the new codex, we decided to start by going way back to their roots. The description of the Adeptus Ministorum in Rogue Trader actually said an awful lot, and, thinking of the role we envisioned for the Ordo Hereticus, I was particularly struck by the following passage: Every single day, squads of Battle Sisters descend upon unsuspecting departments of the Adeptus Terra, administering genetic and psychological tests in order to expose wrongdoers, mutants, and malcontents. Whole companies of Battle Sisters travel out to warzones, to the fortress-monasteries of the Adeptus Astartes, to the fleets and to the scattered worlds of the Imperium. No one is free from their vigilance. Pretty much the same as the Ordo Hereticus then, eh? This passage gave us a basis for the character of the army - vengeful warrior-adepts tasked with ensuring the purity of other Imperial organisations. *The Rogue Trader art even shows a Battle Sister exacting that vengeance upon a Space Marine, so this seemed particularly appropriate. In fact, the Space Marine shown was from the Rainbow Warriors Chapter, and as we haven't heard of them for some time, I guess the Sisters' mission was successful!"* -Andy Hoare, White Dwarf 292 (UK) - Codex: Witch Hunters Designer's Notes section, The Baptism of Fire/Apotheosis web.archive.org/web/20070124235451/uk.games-workshop.com/witchhunters/designers/2/

About Time! I thought you were too attached to the Marines to give the Ladies their due! I'm a Guard guy, but The SoB are really stealing the show for me. The newest Art for them is pitch perfect. I like the fact they are flawed (fanatics after all), yet have probably become so important, b/c while 1,000 strong Marine Chapters are the ultra elite forces for the Imperium that almost no human will ever see, there are plenty of problems that several thousand battle armoured Sisters dropping in on Invasion Cathedrums will fix but good. I love the idea that they are majestic, yet relatable enough to truly inspire Guardsmen everywhere. Really feel that GW is just barely starting to scratch the surface of the potential of SoB. Danie Ware, James Swallow, Alec Worley, et al, have done noble work, but I think it is telling that none of Gav Thorpe, Dan Abnett, or ADB have taken a crack at them. We've never had a MORTAL living Sister do something that drives the big narrative forward (Celestine is an Imperial Deamon). At least for me only Alec Worley's Sister Ademanthia has had the pathos to really stand out. GW has improved their game with SoB a lot, particularly with a lovely new range of minis, but they need to kick it up another gear.

I have never bought a single warhammer product but have taken a deep dive into its lore thanks to the magic the gathering warhammer edh decks, I ended up building edh decks based around Imotekh, the stormlord and Celestine, the living saint. The lore is fascinating in how over the top satirical it is and how influenced it is by Dune, another favorite of mine. I suppose the Adepta Sororitas are similar to Dune's Bene Gesserit, except a lot more militaristic! Also your videos are really well done and have been a good gateway into the frankly intimidating lore of 40k

You are a gifted narrator sir! I really enjoy these videos

Maybe this is a nit pick but Ian states that the two most powerful branches of the Imperium are the Millitarum and the Ecclesiarchy. I would argue that the Mechanicus is as powerful. That said the proper noun "Imperium" sometimes refers to the entire domain of the IoM and sometimes refers to that domain exclusive of the fiefdoms of Mars.

I hope that, at some point, we get more info about the non-militant orders, especially the Famulous, Dialogous, and Pronatus. Though they may be less suited to the battlefield stories that drive much of 40k, they ought to be some of the most lore-filled groups in the setting.

Years later, the myth arose it was because of a priestly prohibition against spilling blood (sine effusione sanguinis). Though it was widely frowned upon during of the medieval period for clergy to fight in battle, some still did, including Bishop Henry Despenser of Norwich who wielded a sword during the Peasants' Revolt in 1381 in Flanders in 1383. Also anyone who's seen what a mace does to a watermelon would realise they aren't what you'd call a bloodless weapon!
