	{{topquote\| If you want to learn about your Ultramari Auxillaries, look at their Copy of The Codex. ~~Dont~~ look at their uniform, badges, hair, or mannerisms. You aren't going to learn anything from that, because the Ultramari are too proud and vain to let their appearance convey anything other than pride. But the Soldier's Codex is arranged by reflections into particular difficulties or dilemmas, it becomes a key to the Trillileur's Heart. Take this one Officer I met, her bright Prandium Orange Jacket was clean though worn, while her face, hair, and smile portrayed a look of mischief and youthful beauty. I asked her if she was in need of anything from the church, but she smiled and just asked for the standard needs for her subordinates and comrades. But as I looked the codex strapped to her waist, i saw a book almost untouched, save for a single section towards the second third of the book. The creases and dogears of where the section were well thumbed, uneven, and stuffed with loose leaves of personal writings. A few days later, I am administering a funeral. A captain abandons their company, and from reports, was laughing and howling at a squad of Fire Warriors before her demise. I was shocked to find that it was the same beguiling woman I had met only a few days before. Finding the copy of the codex again, I looked at the worn sections. "Reflections on St Aeonid, the Last Man at Calth," "Gulliman on the duties of survivors," "Prayers for Captured Comrades," "Recovering from Assaults on The Mind," "The Fate of Cowards and Deserters." The Aurelian had borne this woman's soul to me, and I was too blind to read it. We in the Ecclesiarchy should not disparage this diluted version of Our Lord Gulliman's work. We should study it well and use it, for our Lord has given us a key into the souls of his subjects.\| Fratres Paschal Decimus, Astra Militarum Chaplain, SUEU}}		{{topquote\| If you want to learn about your Ultramari Auxillaries, look at their Copy of The Codex.

The Yanna-Gaelle Codex, was written for the Trillileurs, who are stationed nearby. Rather than arranging the codex in a way that apes its original composition, Magali Yana designed the codex under the conceit that a soldier turning to this book would be looking for words of comfort, healing, and solace. collects passages of the Codex and comprises them as "Reflections." Some of these reflections are taken from the Glossia of Chapters under the leadership of Masali, others are composed from interviews, others are drafted by Megali Yanna, herself a veteran of several wars.

	Throughout the Imperium of Man, Many have differing ~~veiws~~ of the Nature of The Emperor is like. Most project their own ideals onto the comatose figure, placing idealized version of their own opinions into his personality. For some he is a kind Grandfatherly figure, only seeking mankind's best interests. For others he is a righteous reformer, over throw his corrupt regents and build the "True Imperium" that looks suspiciously similar to the Emperor's Point of View. Some see the Emperor as a crypto-practitioner of their own belief and ideology, others see him as the Great Outsider. Like a gardener, all ideas and beliefs to grow while pruning those that threaten to overrun the gardern, or have become withered and useless. Very few of those in 41st mellenium realize that their Emperor hated all of their ideas, and the current state of the imperium is only due to the benevolence of his absence. During the reign of the Great Crusade, Religion was viewed by the Emperor as holding mankind back, and was aggressively supressed and destroyed. The Emperor himself took pride in his destruction of the Last Church on Terra. Even fewer know that it was his hatred of religion that ultimately drove his son Lorgar into the arms of the Ruinous powers.

			*Goge Vandire
			:Before ascending to the Aurelian Spiritual Liege of Magna Terra, Goge Vandire was trained in history from the Apican monuments and museums on Terra. It is believed that these teachers heavily influenced his thought and theology. Upon his ousting from the seat of prandium, Goge Vandire abandoned The Aurelian cult, and openly converted to The Apican faith. Taking many of Terra's worshippers of Gulliman with him.

An ancient sect with an ancient organization, The Leadership has claimed an unbroken line of "Pentarchs" from 40,000 years ago. When asked where, the Katholeans suddenly become less talkative.
	Mellennia of Experience and suspicion of The Imperium has wrapped this organization in secrecy. They are especially suspicious of the Aurelian Cult, and most warp based entities, seeing it as a realm of Demons (unlike The Vilka and Aureleans who see the warp as both where angels and demons dwell). Because of this, and the legacy of Olanius Pius (whom the Aurelians have attempted to co-opt as one of their own), The Katholeans are slowly gaining more acceptance within the Imperium. They also have produced a significant number of Anti-Demon warriors and successful exorcists. Many have tried to learn more about their highly secretive leadership, but all these orgs have to show for it are quite a few dead Inquisitors. For whatever reason the Katholens have good relations with (unsuprisingly) Jaghatai Khan, and (more surprisingly) The Lion El'Johnson.

	==~~Ahrimanism~~==		==Aryelism==
			Also called Callibanism, Ahrimanism, or Luther indivisis

			Luther and Ahriman, while embracing the service of Chaos, and a rejection of the Imperial Truth, were apalled by the blind dogmatism, and beliefs of the Zealous Word Bearers. And while they agreed that the Ruinous powers must be served, and their words obeyed, they were as opposed to Lorgar's vision as they were to the emperor's. Thus shortly after The Revolution (The Desolation of Lorgar, as the Imperium of Man calls it), there was a schism between Luther and Lorgar, with each side agreeing to disagree and govern their own region as they saw fit. While Humans near the Eye of Terror, and practiced either undying servitude to the Ruinous powers, or to Chaos Undivided as understood by Lorgar, Luther and Ahriman tried to mix the best of their Material lives with their new found faith, leading to the School of Aryelism.
