"Fear not, I have my Navigator skills to call upon. Statistically speaking, you are far more likely to perish in battle. Oh, I mean, that came out wrong..."[2]


Cassia Orsellio is a young Navigator, who has made the Koronus Expanse her home.[1]

History

She was originally raised in secret on a restricted-access station by her Navigator House and Orsellio does not know who her real parents are. During that time, all the young Navigator knew was endless years of study and the duty toward her House, that weighed down on Orsellio's fragile shoulders. As a result of living in a gilded cage, she knew nothing outside of its walls - until a twist of fate snatched Orsellio away from it. Now freed much sooner than her mentors had planned, Orsellio was left alone to face the cruelty of the Galaxy. The Navigator's innate powers would dismay those around her and drove away Orsellio's friends and foes alike. What her current future holds is unclear. Will Orsellio break free from the bondage of hopes and ideas that are not her own, or is she perhaps destined to become an obedient cog in the soulless machine that is the Imperium? Only the stars can see the future...[1]

Navigator Abilities

Cassia navigates the warp like all Navigators using her Third Eye. However, to her, this appears as a confusing kaleidoscope of colour. To focus on the specific path to take, she paints what she sees onto a canvas, the path becoming more clear as she does so.[3a] For the colour red, she uses the blood of her servants.[3b]
