Editing Knights-Errant (section)

==Human Members==
While not necessarily Knights-Errant, we also know that four humans were recruited by Malcador to form the founding members of the Inquisition.

*'''Kyril Sindermann''' ''(confirmed)'' - once an [[Iterator]] in Horus' own war fleet, he was considered old even during the close of the Great Crusade where he was somewhat of a mentor figure for Gavriel Loken. He escaped the massacre of Isstvan III as part of the flight of the Eisenstein and converted to the Lectitio Divinatus after witnessing a Daemon being banished through faith in the Emperor's divinity. After that he wasn't really heard from much during the Heresy itself. However, he reappeared 1500 years later as an Inquisitor named Veritus during the [[War of The Beast]], having been kept alive thanks to a suit of specially adapted power armour. Despite several disagreements with Inquisitorial Representative Wienaud regarding their differing views of what the Inquisition should focus its attention on, he ended up working with her to found what would become the Ordo Malleus and the Ordo Xenos. Unfortunately, his colleague, Grand Master Drakan Vangorich of the Officio Assasinorum, got disillusioned with the High Lords' incompetence and selfishness during the war and proceeded to poison Veritus with a special toxin designed only to become dangerous when exposed to the chemicals in his life-support armor and kill off the other High Lords in [[The Beheading]] despite Veritus being one of the most competent of the High Lords at the time. Before his death, he told Wienaud of the existence of the Grey Knights so the Inquisition might be able to call upon them in the future.

*'''Lemuel Gaumon''' ''(confirmed)'' a former [[remembrancer]] and psyker who was tutored by [[Ahriman]] himself. Escaped the destruction of Prospero but was captured and held by the Sisters of Silence for years until the quest for the shards of Magnus brought the Thousand Sons and Knights Errant to come looking for him. He would end up possessed by three fragments of Magnus' soul at the same time, only to be stripped of all that power by the Crimson King. Quite possibly the first person to be exorcised he was thereafter immune to any future daemonic possession and brought before Malcador to share his insights into Magnus and the Thousand Sons. Not before renaming himself '''Promeus''' in honour of the deceased Dio Promus. As Promeus, he would initiate the resurrectionist faction of the Inquisition after their formation, hoping to find a way to bring the Emperor back to life. This faction would later evolve into the Thorians.
*'''Moriana''' ''(confirmed)'' - Stated to be one of the founding four members of the Inquisition, and rumored to be a "handmaiden" of the Emperor. Claimed to have performed a vital role in the spreading of the Imperial Cult. Along with Promeus, sought to resurrect the Emperor. However, she turned to the forces of Chaos to do so, inventing Horusianism and becoming the first Radical Inquisitor. Exiled to the Eye of Terror, she eventually came into the employ of Abaddon the Despoiler as a seer and now answers directly to the Chaos Gods (who have seen fit to grant her a Daemon World to rule over). Of note, the original story of Moriana and Promeus didn't name the other two founders, but described one as being a man with an aged voice (In hindsight, probably Sindermann) and the other as being a man with a long, sharp, hawkish nose.
*'''Amendera Kendel''' - ''Agentia Tercius'' to Malcador (after Garro himself) and a former [[Sisters of Silence|Sister of Silence]]. She is still a Pariah of course, but she gave up her vow to become one of the first members of Malcador's [[Inquisition|band of merry travellers]]. She is quite possibly the first "True" Inquisitor, by virtue of her background as a Witch-Hunter and the later development of her character which shows her radically using the authority granted to her by the Sigillite to get shit done: Co-opting Space Marines from the survivors of the ''Eisenstein'' into her retinue, and later ordering a battle-barge to enact ''[[Exterminatus]]'' on a planet turned renegade, despite the fact that <u>no-one</u> other than a Primarch or the Emperor himself had ever ordered such an act before her.
*'''Yasu Nagasena''' - the Last Samurai (eat your heart out, Tom Cruise) and expert tracker who was tasked with finding the [[Outcast Dead]], then chasing down and killing Severian. He was only stopped from doing so by Malcador, who wanted them both for his [[Inquisition|new project]], giving Nagasena a rosette to mark his authority. Nagasena was a sage who was, according to legend, responsible for converting the Indo-Greeks to Buddhism.
*'''Khalid [[Hassan]]''' - A Stormtrooper who was in the Sigillite's employ to collect an artefact from Egypt, despite being told not to look into the box, he did and was brought before Malcador to explain himself. It turns out that the artefact was the ''Rosetta Stone'', Malcador telling him that he was part of an order that kept history and learning safe and intact (a half-truth: Malcador collects historical artefacts, but also founded the Order Elucidatum to destroy historical records deemed inconvenient). He also gets shown the doorway to the Emperor's Webway.
*'''Katanoh Tallery''' - a scribe who discovered that someone was using galactic scale tax avoidance schemes to fund and build a Legion-sized force under the Imperium's nose and within their territory. She was aided by Garro in finding who was diverting Imperial equipment in such an underhanded manner. Turns out it was Malcador and he was pissed at Garro for uncovering the Grey Knight fortress on Titan before it was finished, but was convinced to keep Tallery in order to better manage the bookkeeping. It's unlikely she is going to end up being an Inquisitor though (although, looking for funny spending would be an excellent way to find heretics... In fact, [[Eisenhorn]] uncovers a coven of heretics due to unusual accounting).
