'''Alizebeth Bequin''' was an associate of [[Inquisitor]] [[Gregor Eisenhorn]]. She was born on [[Bonaventure]] in 210.M41 and died . She was injured on [[Durer]] and was put on life support in 386.M41.{{Fn|2a2}}.
==Biography==
{{Spoiler|source=Eisenhorn (Novel Series)}}
===Meeting with Eisenhorn===
Bequin joined the Inquisitor's team on the planet of [[Hubris]] while he was searching for the mass-murderer [[Murdin Eyclone]], who had killed 12,142 citizens of the planet in a failed attempt to resurrect [[Pontius Glaw]]. At that time, she had been working as a [[joygirl]] for a [[Joy House]] in the Sun Dome for four years under the pseudonym of "Lise B". She came to Eisenhorn's attention during a raid on a suspected [[cultist]] hideout, when she saved his life by killing his would-be attacker.{{Fn|1a}}
=== Later Operations ===
Eventually Eisenhorn employed more Blanks and formed them into an organisation called the [[Distaff]], led by Bequin. The Distaff was eventually all but wiped out by mercenaries, although Bequin and a few other blanks managed to survive.{{Cite This}}
In 461.M41 the ship holding her stasis tube went missing during a routine jump. Most probably around the same date, Alizebeth Bequin was reborn on the planet [[Sancour]] ([[Scarus Sector|Sector Scarus]], [[Angelus Subsector|Subsector Angelus]]) and specifically in the [[Hive City]] of [[Queen Mab]] (southern emisphere of Sancour, prefecture of Hercula). The [[Cognitae]] somehow retrieved Bequin's original genetic material in order to produce a quasi-clone of her.{{Fn|2b}}{{Fn|2c}}{{Fn|2d}} The new Bequin (dubbed '''Beta Bequin''' or '''Beta'''){{Fn|2e}} was raised as an orphan in the Scholam Orbus in Queen Mab. She was then selected to enter the adjoining facilities of the Maze Undue. The latter was a Cognitae-run training facility for psychic blanks where masking, covert operations, weapon training and the best use of the pariah trait were taught.{{Fn|2e}}{{Fn|2f}}{{Fn|2g}} Once the Maze Undue was razed by Inquisitorial agents led by Inquisitor [[Gideon Ravenor]], Bequin was sold to the local Ecclesiarchy who intended to conduct experiments with her. Heretical memebers of the Ecclasiarchy, with the aid of elements of the [[Word Bearers]] Chaos Space Marines, seemingly succeded in using Bequin to speak [[Enuncia]] without her being harmed in any way. Thanks to the intervention of Inquisitor [[Gregor Eisenhorn]], she successfully fled before any further steps could be done through the project. She was finally brought to the house of [[Alace Glaw]] where an [[Emperor's Children]] [[Chaos Space Marine]] named [[Teke]] "The Smiling One", wanted to use her to find an access to the [[City of Dust]]. This fabled city was in reality a twin of Queen Mab but set into another dimension and a first attempt to open a stable passage through the [[Immaterium]] much like the Eldar [[Webway]]. {{Fn|2b}}{{Fn|2c}}{{Fn|2g}}{{Fn|2h}} After evading multiple foes, Bequin was freed from [[Gideon Ravenor]]'s activity by [[Cherubael]] and agreed to work with him to hunt down the mysterious [[King in Yellow]].{{Fn|2i}} Eisenhorn and Bequin traveled to the city of Queen Mab on the world of [[Sancour]] to attempt to research on how to enter the [[City of Dust]], the rumored pocket dimension which served as the hiding place of the Yellow King.{{Fn|1}} During the search for the City of Dust Bequin reestablished contact with Gideon Ravenor, who formed a temporary alliance with his former Inquisitor colleague. Coming to work with Ravenor, she was part of an entourage which included [[Comus]], [[Renner Lightburn]], and [[Patience Kys]].{{Fn|3a}} Bequin was able to eventually enter the City of Dust, where she encountered apparent clones of her Cognitae "academy" classmates [[Judika]] and [[Faria]]. These figures summoned [[Custodes|Custodians]] to take her before the Yellow King, Alizebeth panicked and used [[Enuncia]] to escape. However the group was able to recover a book which held the full name of the Yellow King, the first two words of which were [[Constantin Valdor]].{{Fn|3b3}}
