The '''Celestarii'' were a [[Xenos]]-worshiping cult active in the [[Orpheus Sector]] in late [[M38]]. Born from the famine and bitterness of the preceding years which included the [[Black Crusade of Von Mallas]], the Celestarii ranks swell among the nobles of the sector. While persecuted by the [[Ordo Hereticus]] and [[Adeptus Arbites]], Imperial authorities are nonetheless able to eliminate the cult. The Cult's tenets maintain the [[Imperial Creed]] to be false while worshiping a secret race of superior beings which slumber, who they believe will one day awaken to bring immortality to their servants and death to all who oppose them (likely a reference to [[Necrons]]). The Cult takes alien artifacts as holy relics and carries out cannibalistic rituals.{{Fn|1}}
