==Background==
The Praetors of Orpheus are stationed on the world of [[Beta Entebes II]] within a subterranean base , which serves as their [[Fortress Monastery]], called the Labyrinthe of Orphia.{{Fn|2a}} They are known for their disciplined approach to the [[Codex Astartes]] and are compltely inflexible in their adherence to the tome. While the Codex is their guide in all things, they are prone to interpreting passages too literally.{{Fn|4}}
The technological lore of the Praetors of Orpheus is second only to that of the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]]. Many believe that the two are tied by more than shared service in the [[Emperor]]'s name. The Praetors of Orpheus are highly active in the systems neighbouring [[Pavonis]].{{Fn|3}}
