Editing Canoness (section)

==Notable Canonesses==
There are quite a number of named Canonesses, but here are the most notable ones.
*'''Agnes:''' The Canoness most notable in her involvement in Sister's Snuff Film#1 [[Sanctuary 101|Sanctuary 101.]] A Canoness of the Order of Our Martyred Lady. 
*'''Aspira:''' A Canoness and [[Living Saint|Saint]] coming from the Order of the Bloody Rose who led her Battle Sisters in a War of Faith that liberated nearly one hundred worlds from the grip of the blasphemous tyrant Denescura.
*'''Chrisima:''' A Canoness Preceptor of the Order of the Argent Shroud who led her Order at the behest of the notorious Confessor Petasus, who led his pogrom against the mutants of Charak. She is a complete bitch so make of that what you will.
*'''Galatea:''' Canoness of the Order of Our Martyred Lady in Neva.
*'''[[Canoness Superior Junith Eruita|Junith Eruita]]:''' A renowned leader of the Order of Our Martyred Lady, notable for traveling into battle on a flying pulpit with built-in heavy flamers.
*'''Lunaria:''' Canoness of the Order of the Vermillion Hand. In 941.M41, she gave her life fighting alongside the [[Grey Knights]] Chapter during the valiant defense of the world of Decimalus, to halt the Plague of Madness caused by the Lord of Change, Ix'thar'ganix, a foe that had long eluded the Grey Knights. No she is not related to that [[Khornate Knights|particular incident.]]
*'''Magda Grace:''' Canoness of the Order of the Sacred Rose, [[Salamanders|she has quite the obsession and a staunched advocate of the sacred trinity of bolter, flamer and melta weaponry. She is the stereotypical Nuns with Guns.]]
*'''Praxedes:''' Saint Praxedes of Ophelia VII was a Canoness of the Order of Our Martyred Lady and renowned hero of the Imperium of Man's Ultima Segmentum during the Second Tyrannic War. She was martyred upon the Cardinal World of Okassis after leading a valiant defense against the encroaching Tyranid menace.
*'''Sariah:''' A Canoness of the Order of the Sacred Rose. In 835.M41, she led a force of Battle Sisters to the former Shrine World of Piety, which rematerialized after being swallowed by a Warp Storm two centuries earlier. She got her prize (Which consists of the [[Wat|left thigh bone of Saint Dolan]] and three pages of the ominous Lexicon of Falsehoods from a stasis vault) shortly after the Grey Knights [[Exterminatus|blew up the planet with Cyclonic Torpedoes.]]
*'''[[Selena Agna]]:''' A Canoness of the Order of the Sacred Rose most notable in her introduction in [[Dawn of War|Dawn of War Soulstorm]] who personally led her Order in the purge of the Kaurava System. Like almost every single character save for [[Vance Stubbs|Stubbs]], Selena has the personality of a wet sock but was at least notable for having a somewhat manly death (It involved martyrdom by fire, how Sisterly like) along with [[Indrick Boreale]] [[Derp|of all people,]] while the other faction leaders either ran away like pussies or have a hilarious mental breakdown. She was <s>defeated by [[Gorgutz]]</s>{{BLAM}} {{BLAM|sadly put down by [[Vance Motherfucking Stubbs|Vance Stubbs]]}}. Her prefered tactic is to launch a "Crusade" after their faith power is full. The faith power is able to grant invincibility and other buffs to her sisters, allow them to tank even the Baneblade's Eleven Barrels of Hell. Sadly, the faith power does not last long enough for <s>Gorgutz's power klaw [[FATAL| to penetrate Selena's cunt]]</s>{{BLAM}}{{BLAM}} {{BLAM|Vance Stubbs to defeat her and permit her to immolate herself rather than stain her [[Order of the Sacred Rose|Order's]] honor by admitting that she was wrong to stand against him}}. Her base is also protected by an invincible living saint who has the power to teleport to the 4 living saint statue near Selena's base. Again, this meant little to <s>Gorgutz</s> {{BLAM|STUBBS}} for he could just separate his <s>boyz</s> {{BLAM|stalwart guardsmen}} and destroy each statue.
*'''Sepherina:''' A Canoness of the Order of Our Martyred Lady who led the Sororitas effort to reconsecrate Sanctuary 101 after its destruction by the Necrontyr. A powerful military leader who felt solely responsible for Sanctuary's demise, as she was originally supposed to command the Convent there until circumstances meant that duty fell to another.
* '''[[Canoness-Errant Setheno|Setheno]]:''' A Canoness-Errant and one scary lady. Previously the Cannoness of the Order of the Piercing Thorn, a minor order that became corrupted and was purged by Setheno herself. Rather than be reassigned to another order, she became the Sororitas equivalent of a Inquisitor. Despite the fact that she has zero temporal power, she was able to take authority over a Space Marine chapter and an Inquisitor (both of whom outrank and wield more independent power themselves) by sheer force of personality and her reputation as an utterly uncompromising spiritual authority and judge. She also knew Yarrick throughout his career and was present during the 2nd War for Armageddon.
* '''[[Canoness Veridyan|Veridyan]]:''' Best known for being the cover girl of the Second Edition codex. Also one of the central protagonists for Marvel's Sisters of Battle comic.
