[[Image:Veridyan Blanche.jpg|thumb|Right|350px|Original Gangster™]]'''Canoness Veridyan''' is the [[canoness]] from [[John Blanche|John Blanche's]] cover art for the second edition Sisters of Battle codex. She has little-to-no fluff to speak of, but is described as being cold, calculating, and utterly steadfast in her devotion. So basically, she's [[Rule 63]] [[Arch-Confessor Kyrinov|Kyrinov]].

Her model was released in tandem with [[Warhammer 40,000/Tactics/Imperial Agents|Codex: Imperial Agents]], making her the [[The Steadfast Pewter Sororitas|first new Sister of Battle model in over 10 years]]. While the model itself is nicely detailed and oozes character, her rules were a bit underwhelming. Weighing in at 85 points, she was identical to a standard Canoness, albeit with a power sword and the Clinical Precision rule, which gave all friendly Adepta Sororitas models within 12" of her the Precision Shots and Precision Strikes special rules. While this wasn't bad by any means, the fact that she was a T3 model without a rosarius or Eternal Warrior left her extremely vulnerable to [[plasma]] and it's equivalents. If you wanted to bring her, your best bet was to plant her next to some [[Exorcist|exorcists]] and [[Troll|chuckle]] as you sniped enemy characters and specialists with [[Rape|S8 AP1 shots from 48" away]]. She also works well as a model to represent [[Your Chicks|a canoness of your own design]]. As of [[Warhammer 40,000 8th edition|8th Edition]], she no longer has up-to-date rules, so this is really your only option barring some [[Homebrew|other possibilities]]. She looks like Lady Gaga.
