Angelica

Sisters of Battle Portal

Angelica is an Argent Shroud Zephyrim Superior, who is currently serving in the Daemenor Crusade as part of Canoness Preceptor Blance's War of Faith.^[3]

History

Her journey there began in the aftermath of the Great Rift's creation, when Angelica was struck by a vision from the Emperor. It warned that Canoness Blanche's forces were in danger on Daemenor and needed immediate aid. Angelica reacted quickly to this and led the Argent Shroud Sororitas she had been serving with, to rescue the Canoness. Miraculously, they were joined by the Living Saint Celestine and the Sororitas later reached Blanche's forces, who were being attacked by Heretics. With the combined might of the Argent Shroud and Saint Celestine, the Heretics were killed and the Crusade Force was saved. Afterwards Celestine, Angelica and the Sororitas they brought with them, would join Blanche's efforts to cleanse Daemenor of its Heresy.^[1]

They succeeded in doing so and afterwards, Canoness Blanche led her Sisters to Sanctuary 101. She sought to reconsecrate the world for the Imperium, after it was lost in the aftermath of the Great Rift's creation. However the Necrons' Thokt Dynasty sought to claim the world as well and was led by its Overlord Onryx^[2]. Despite the Argent Shroud's fierce efforts, they were defeated and Blanche's surviving Sisters escaped back to Daemenor. It was being used as a staging post for the Daemenor Crusade and despite their defeat, Eleanor was promoted to Canoness Preceptor and given command of the Crusade's War of Faith. Angelica and the other surviving Argent Shroud Sisters, joined the Canoness and still serve under Blanche's command.^[3]
