Ada
Ada was a Canoness of the Sisters of Battle, who was among its forces that defended Paradyce VI, when it was invaded by the Necron.[1]
However, Paradyce VI lied within the Pariah Nexus, which caused the Sisters and the 23rd Paradycian Peltasts Regiment to be stricken by the phenomenon known as the Stilling. While the Sisters' faith held the Stilling at bay, the Guardsmen and citizens of Paradyce VI became lethargic, which reduced the fighting capabilities of the 23rd. This greatly aided the Necron and the Xenos were able to overwhelm the Imperial forces. As they were forced to retreat, in order to regroup with other survivors, Ada executed the 23rd Guardsman Buhnk, after the effects of the Stilling made him refuse to fight any longer. Afterwards, the Canoness spoke to the Hospitaller Sarane and made note of how the Sisters were the only ones able to resist the Stilling. Ada warned Sarane to be on guard, though, as the Necron seemed to know this as well and were specifically targeting the Sisters. Shortly after saying this, however, the Canoness was killed by the Xenos and Paradyce VI soon fell to the Necron.[1]
