A Penitent Engine
Penitent Engines are used by the Ecclesiarchy as a form of punishment for repenting heretics. They are used by the Adepta Sororitas like Space Marines use Dreadnoughts. Similar to Dreadnoughts, the pilot is hard-wired into the frame of the Penitent Engine. They will charge into combat in a frenzied state, made to recognise that only in death can he or she find forgiveness for his or her crimes.
