| Why Was The Order Founded? (d10) | |
|---|---|
| 1–4 | Strategic Prognostication - "We shall likely have need of Sisters in this system, at this time, create that Order!" |
| 5–6 | Counter - "There are Orks over here! Found an Order!" "But it'll take 50 ye-" "Do it!" |
| 7–8 | Standing Force - "This area doesn't have sufficient spiritual guidance, found an order!" |
| 9–10 | Crusade - "We need people running around and hitting the Imperium's enemies. Found an Order!" |

| If one exists, what is the Order's Flaw? (d10) | |
|---|---|
| 1–2 | We Stand Alone - The Order is either distrusted for some reason or otherwise cloaks itself from prying eyes. |
| 3–4 | Pride in the Colours - The Order refuses to submit to any authority outside of the high lords of Terra or the Inquisition. |
| 5–6 | Faith in Suspicion - The Order particularly hates a single Imperial institution, and refuses to work with them. |
| 7–8 | An Eye for an Eye - The Order refuses to use the tactics of cowards and will sacrifice every soldier before retreating. |

Each Order has a Saint to whom the sisters look to for guidance

| 26-50 | The individual was a stalwart enemy of the servants of Chaos, and slew a Daemon Prince. |
| 51-70 | The saint led a glorious campaign against a rebel army, defeating the foe and bringing an entire sector back into the light of the Emperor. |
| 71-85 | The figure led an action against an Eldar craftworld, boarding it and inflicting grievous casualties before withdrawing. This has earned the order the fear and hatred of that craftworld |
| 86-90 | lives still and may one day return to them in glory. |
| 91-95 | The Saint was the first to face some newly discovered alien race, and ultimately responsible for its total destruction. Centuries later, only the Order remembers the name of the race, so utterly was it slain and its works cast down. |
| 96-100 | The saint led the Order in many glorious campaigns, slaying hundreds of the enemy’s greatest champions. In the end, they were brought down by treachery within the fold of the Imperium, slain by an assassin’s turbo-penetrator round on the field of battle. Just why they were targeted was never discovered, and the Order harbours doubts of the loyalty of the servants of the Officio Assassinorum to this day. |
