Sisters of Battle
![]() | This article contains PROMOTIONS! Don't say we didn't warn you. |

Sisters of Battle are essentially Warhammer 40k's female equivalent of Space Marines, and are warriors devoted to the Emprah. Although they lack the genetic modification of their beefier brethren, they also wear power armour and are armed mainly with the eponymous Bolter. The Sisters of Battle are also known as the "Daughters of the Emperor", and officially as the "Adepta Sororitas". They are more colloquially known by players as "Bolter-bitches" or "Nuns with guns".
The Sisters of Battle are part of the Ecclesiarchy, the religious arm of Imperial government, and often work closely with the Inquisition. They have somewhat of an obsession with the purifying effects of flame, and generally choose equipment that allows them to cover their enemies with as much holy promethium as possible. This philosophy is most obviously exemplified by the Immolator tank, essentially a modified Rhino with giant flamethrowers stuck on it. It is thought by some that long ago the Sisters of Battle were strongly influenced by St. Ralph the Unmovable, a preacher for The Cult of the Leprechuan Who Tells Us To Burn Things (usually shortened to "The Cult of the Leprechuan" around the uninitiated so as to not unnecessarily upset them).
The Sisters may or may not be giant paedophiles. They also may or may not be flaming lesbians (Insert Rimshot Here).

Uh oh. The Leprechuan is telling her things.

Much is written of the Sisters' leaders' maternal and loving treatment of their probationer sisters. Fequently Canonnesses and Sister Superiors alike take time away from demanding regular duties to act as Dominatrices (that being what the sisters who conduct this revered duty are called) for novice initiates, and repentant sisters alike.

Contrary to some, the Sororitas are not big dyke lesbians. They're not. This slander has been spread by small... um... who... Emperor, that's so hot.

The frequency of cases of heresy and madness within the ranks of the Sororitas is little different from the I.G. However, given their constant exposure to the worst and most subversive forces arrayed against the Imperium it speaks to their iron wills that they're not all deserting to abduct and molest small boys.

Sisters Repentia are supposed to repent.

Not that they are fanatical about it.
