→Ravenor's Team: Spelling fixes
In addition to his team, Ravenor has other allies that help him in times of need. Ravenor also allied with a group of [[Eldar]] for some time, a highly unorthodox occurrence among the Ordo Xenos, if not outright heresy. Unsurprisingly, Ravenor endeavours to keep this association a secret.
* '''Interrogator [[Carl Thonius]]''' - Ravenor's pupil and protégé. While he is trained in the use of weapons and can hold his own in close combat, most of the time he chooses not to be involved in the more violent parts of Ravenor's business. He has considerable skill with hacking, data handling and retrieval. Thonius is possessed by the daemon [[Slyte]]. He is destroyed as Slyte takes physical form, after trying to take advantage of the daemon possessing him, and use it's its power to help in Ravenor's work. The fact that Thonius hid the daemon from Ravenor is undoubtebly undoubtably the reason as to why the daemon was able to manifest itself in the material world.{{Fn|7}}
* '''[[Harlon Nayl]]''' - An ex-bounty hunter formerly under employment of Inquisitor Eisenhorn. Carries a vast array of weapons. Nayl leads most operations and seems to be one of the most senior team members.
* '''[[Kara Swole]]''' - A former dancer-acrobat, trained in the use of deadly weapons. Regularly described as a voluptuous beauty. Formerly under employment of Inquisitor Eisenhorn. Swole's relationship to Ravenor was extraordinary, as Ravenor had feelings for her other than the protectiveness of a team leader and an employer.
* '''[[Zeph Mathuin]]''' - Silent ex-bounty hunter. Ill tempered and heavily armed. Because of an apparent natural affinity he was Ravenor's favourite vessel for waring. Mathuin favoured a multi-barrel rotator cannon. He was killed by a daemon during the events of Ravenor Returned.
* '''[[Wystan Frauka]]''' - An '[[Blank|Untouchable]]', a man with the latent ability to block out psychic activity. Big, chain-smoking and disliked by pretty much everyone (in part because of his psychic blankness. It was mentioned in Xenos that the field untouchables project also creates a sense of fear, revulsion and dread in others.). An interesting difference to the Eisenhorn novels is Frauka's so-called inhibitor, a device allowing him to shut down his natural anti-psi field. He is often found passing the time by reading pornographic data-slates or staring at the female members of the team.
* '''[[Zael Effernetti]] ''' - A boy, about 14 years old, addicted to [[Flect|flects]] when he first appears. In the wake of Ravenor's investigation to uncover the source of the flects, Zael gets taken along for being able to "hear" the telepathic communication between Ravenor and Nayl. He is a psychic "mirror," with no real psychic capabilities of his own. As well as his precognitive abilities, he is able to use the psychic powers of others in his vicinity but not for an extended period of time. He also shared Frauka's attraction to pornography. After Ravenor was apprehended as a Rogue, Zael was eventually handed over to the [[Grey Knights]] as a recruit. As with all Grey Knight'sKnights, Zael's memories were erased and he became the individual named Hyperion.{{Fn|11a}} As a Grey Knight, Hyperion's distinctions include surviving the [[First War of Armageddon]], where he used his considerable abilities to shatter [[Angron]]'s [[Black Blade]],{{Fn|11b}} and being promoted to the rank of [[Prognosticar]].{{Fn|11c}}
* '''[[Maud Plyton]]''' - An ex-Magistrum marshall who during investigation of a suspected suicide stumbles across a secret central to the plans of a world wide conspiracy on the planet Eustis Majoris to recreate a powerful warp based language. She joins Ravenor after she and her family are targeted for assassination. She is noted to having cute facial features that clash with her no nonsense marshall appearance.
* '''[[Cynia Preest]]''' - Captain of the Hinterlight, a rogue trade ship regularly employed by Ravenor. The Hinterlight is equipped with a custom-built stealth device partly comprised of alien technology, partly powered by Ravenor's own considerable psychic powers.
* '''[[Sholto Unwerth]]''' - Captain of the Arethusa, a rogue trade ship that Ravenor employs after leaving the Hinterlight. Developes Develops a controversial relationship with Patience Kys, as seen in Ravenor Rogue.
