==About the Order of the Sacred Rose== [[File:SisterSacredRose.png|300px|thumb|right|A Sacred Rose Battle sister showing up and recruiting half a guard regiment to come to the "Purge all heretics in the system" Tour.]] The Order of the Sacred Rose was created in the name of '''Saint Arabella''', who was one of Alicia Dominica's sisterhood in the Brides of the Emperor, and was the girl who apparently convinced Alicia to go hear out those [[Adeptus Custodes|banana guys]] on what exactly was going on with that [[Goge Vandire]] guy, and arguably the lynchpin on ending the [[Age of Apostasy|Reign of Blood]] for good. Fittingly, Arabella was a reasonable, calm, serene woman who seemingly never broke in the face of adversity or in the face of heresy, who became known as the "Liberator" due to however many people would start praying to her specifically to liberate them from anxious thoughts and get them back in calming shape, ''and not'' because she liberated a shitload of planets. She is unusual for orders of Alicia Dominica's friends that set up Sisters of Battle Orders in that the prerequisite martyrdom that follows getting an Order is not exactly known; instead of having a well-known death at the hands of cultists or something like that, she just vanished. And whatever it is that happened, her order isn't talking about it...even though she was never actually alive when she led them, so you figure it out. The Order believes they are a conduit of the emperor's will, and consider themselves the devoutest of the very devout of the Sisters Of Battle. Their faith in the emperor is such that they believe that he's already decided they're gonna win whatever fight they're in, and all they have to do is carry it out. Which extends to their time on the battlefield: They hammer the enemy with sustained fire without stopping, locking ranks whenever the enemy tries to break them, and then smash into the weak links of the enemy's line; singing to the emperor all the while, completely unfazed whatsoever by the horrors they see before them. Their patron saint was known for the sheer amount of miracles that seemed to happen in her wake, and that apparently extends to the women shooting things in her stead, and the [[Ecclesiarchy]] and fanatical devotees the galaxy over follows them around like the bunch of simps they are hoping to get a glimpse of the Sacred Rose's abilities, and they tend to so they always seem to end up with a force ''way'' beyond whatever the Imperium's enemies were expecting. In the time of the [[Age of the Dark Imperium]], they've been instrumental in keeping the Imperium from going entirely underwater thanks to their ability to get people to join their fights. Which is good, because 80% of their convents just so happen to be in the Dark Imperium, which is almost entirely cut off from the rest of the imperium and is up to their elbows in daemons and xenos, which has hardened their tactics a bit: They routinely execute people who doubt the security of the imperium, and basically commandeer whole guardsmen regiments (not that the terrified guardsmen mind), and have been able to show up just in the nick of time to save regiments even though they can't possibly have heard the swallowed up distress calls. The faith of the emperor indeed.
