Editing Codex - Fallen Sororitas (section)

=== Elites ===

*'''Paramours:''' Being the center of power in the sect, Dark Mistresses and Sirens inevitably attract any number of lieutenants, lovers, and cronies to their side. Collectively known as Paramours, these women form the inner circle of the sect, giving their undying loyalty to their mistress in exchange for the privileges of power and increased standing within the sect. Although most Paramours are completely infatuated with their mistress and are willing to give anything for them, there are those who possess subtle cunning, feigning loyalty while plotting to take power for themselves.

*'''Masochists:''' Horrifically tortured and mutilated in a perverse imitation of sacred corporeal mortification of the Ecclesiarchy, Masochists have given themselves fully to the sensation of pain in the pursuit of greater glory in the eyes of Slaanesh. Unsurprisingly, many of their number are former Repentias, their need for punishment and atonement being manipulated into a need for pain for it's own sake. The longer a Masochist survives, the more extreme her needs become, and many will submit to increasingly violent and invasive surgeries in order to enhance their sensory capabilities and further augment their capabilities on the battlefield.

*'''Mistress:''' As the Repentia's need for punishment can be turned to Slaanesh's will, so too can a Mistress of Redemption's sense of justice be turned to more sadistic impulses. Mistresses of Sadism play an important role in the sect's hierarchy. In addition to ensuring the sect's masochists are properly motivated, they are also in charge of the sect's slave supply, ensuring that they are properly broken and are fulfilling their duties to the utmost of their capabilities. As befitting their title, these women are ever-vigilant for failings in their charges, and love nothing more than to make an example of any unfortunate soul who catches their eye, whether the punishment is warranted or not.

*'''Ascended:''' Desperate for power, some among the Fallen Sororitas willingly allow themselves to be possessed by daemons, with the intent of subjugating the daemon and taking it's power for themselves. Although most fail, becoming horribly mutated chaos spawn, those who succeed find themselves with power beyond imagination. On the battlefield, Ascended are terrifying shock troops, emerging from the warp in the midst of their foes and felling them with shards of daemonic matter before growing blades, claws, and other weapons from their bodies to finish off the survivors.

*'''Flesh Shaper:''' Fallen [[Sisters Hospitaller]] who have gained the ability to shapeshift themselves and others via warp rituals.

*'''Lampad:''' Fallen [[Sisters_of_Battle#Sororitas_Orders_Non-Militant|Sisters Dialogus]] who have gained psychic powers, their considerable forbidden knowledge being put to deadly use in the service of Slaanesh.

*'''Apostate:''' Fallen priests, dark shamans, and warp dabblers, Apostates are those who have fully devoted themselves to the ruinous powers. They can be found in every strata of Imperial society, from the darkest underhive mutant cults to the powerful secret societies formed of bored and dissolute nobles to the churches and cathedrals of the Ecclesiarchy itself. Given the opportunity, many Apostates will eagerly join forces with Fallen Sororitas, sacrificing their own accumulated power in exchange for the protection offered in their dark abbeys.

*'''Pleasure Cult Assassins:''' [[Death Cult Assassin|Death Cult Assassins]] who have fallen to Chaos.
