The Order is based on [[Ophelia VII]] within the [[Convent Sanctorum]]{{Fn|1}}, founded when the convent was split by [[Ecclesiarch]] [[Alexis XXII]]{{Fn|2b}}. Their original leader was [[Lucia]], one of the Sisters who accompanied [[Alicia Dominica ]] to the [[Golden Throne]] during the [[Age of Apostasy]] .{{Fn|3a}}
Their colours are black armour, black cloaks with a white lining and white gloves. The only trace of red is on their Ecclesiarchal symbol. These colours are the original colors of the Convent Sanctorum, which the Order inherited after the Convent was split in two.{{Fn|2a}} The Sisters forever honor the gruesome tortorous death of Lucia, and were eventually able to hunt down those responsible for it. What became of them is not known, but it is said that [[Hospitaller]]s from the [[Order of the Silent Vow]] which specialize in pain enhancement and life extension are still busy under their sanctuary of '''Lucia's Reprisal'''.{{Fn|7a}}
