Talia Daverna
Talia Daverna (rosette number 9588/D7[1b]) was a Lord Inquisitor of the Ordo Hereticus active during the 13th Black Crusade. She oversaw all Inquisitorial assets within the Cadian Gate.[1a]
When the evacuation of Cadia was called for by Lord Castellan Ursarkar Creed, Daverna attempted to stop all efforts to leave the planet due to fears of corruption amongst the survivors, but her order to halt the evacuation was overruled by Katarinya Greyfax, an Inquisitor with seniority. Later, Daverna tried to threaten Colonel Marda Hellsker, who was in charge of arranging parts of the evacuation, into stopping it, but this confrontation ended with the Inquisitor being killed by intentional friendly fire, it being written off as death to "enemy sharpshooters".[1b]
