I mostly hate her because she started off so promising. I mean, a badass, bolter-toting, hawt female Inquisitor from Fenris? Yesssssss.
But by the end of the book, it becomes clear that she's an overtly emotional, naïve, and impulsive woman who is so enamored with the Space Wolves that she betrays her own order, with zero consequences (Like everyone on that side of the conflict, really). Oh, and she feths her own former-Chaos cultist slave (No seriously, wtf), and, to top all of this off, the vast majority of combat she gets into happens offscreen.

I don't know too many Inquisitors. Heldane was a scumbag spidery like guy, and I only liked him when he got shot and then his mind exploded.
Adrastia is a nasty piece of work. More than willing to enlist and blackmail Orks and Eldar to cause havoc while she continues her investigation, but she also has a sweet hat and an inferno pistol.
And then she got beaten up by Bluddflagg and lost her hat.

ADB: I showed the Wolves revealing the key weakness at the heart of the World Eaters; showing Angron that his Legion was broken and worthless compared to the others; that he was the one primarch who couldn't trust his own warriors, and that they didn't care if he lived or died; showing that loyalty to brothers and sons is the heart of success for the Legiones Astartes, to the point even Lorgar makes a big deal out of saying the World Eaters and their primarch were massively outclassed by Russ, and Angron was too stupid to see the lesson Russ had sacrificed time, sweat, and blood, to teach. We're talking about a battle the Wolves won, by isolating the enemy general through pack tactics, and threatening to kill him, without a hope of defending himself. It was a balance, 50/50 - Angron overpowered Russ, and the Wolves were losing ground to the World Eaters; but Russ and his warriors had Angron by the balls, and barely broke a sweat. They won, no question. Lorgar even says: "The Wolves won, meathead."

What do you guys think of these two Inquisitors?
Dark Heresy rpg pg 319 wrote:Inquisitor Astrid Skane,
Ordo Hereticus
A formidable woman, Inquisitor Skane exudes the rough
authority of a seasoned arbitrator officer. Tough and
resourceful, she is one of the most active of the cabal’s
Inquisitors, happy to get her hands dirty rooting out
corruption. Skane is a striking woman with a stern, strong
face who wears her hair regulation short. She habitually
dresses much as she did when she served as an arbitrator on
Scintilla, in a black uniform and body armour, and is rarely
seen without her shock maul and shotgun. Skane respects
those who respect her, treats her more skilled acolytes as
equals and has little time for pomp and appearances.
Skane follows the Recongregators’ creed, which states
that the Imperium must be reformed radically to reduce
the suffering of its people and that the Inquisition is the
only body with the authority and skill to reform it. Skane
believes that the Imperium’s woes are caused by corruption
among its ruling classes. She developed a particular hatred
for corrupt nobles whilst serving as an arbitrator and has
carried that through to her work as an Inquisitor.
Her
operations, therefore, target corruption among the nobility
and the Adepta, including the Adeptus Arbites she once
served. She dreams of a future where the Imperium is
turned upside-down and justice is the rule rather than the
exception, but she realises that she will not live to see it. She
fights for what justice she can and hopes that others will
follow her to carry on the battle. Skane is convinced that
the Tyrant Star can only be appearing due to some form of
summons. She believes there is a powerful cult at work in
the sector, employing sorcery to call the Tyrant Star down
on mankind. That is a cult she would very much like to
personally root out.
Dark Heresy rpg Ascension pg 37 wrote:Interrogator Abigayle Cruz, who ascended to the rank
of Inquisitor after a career as an Interrogator that lasted only
three years. She subsequently discovered that the father she
had believed long dead was in fact an Inquisitor Lord, and
that he had ensured her meteoric rise. Upon becoming an
Inquisitor, her first act was to denounce her new-found sire
for such blatant abuse of his position, and the two became
sworn enemies.

Stated by Grey Templar:The Ward of the Codices
"It began, with the writing of the Great Codices,
2 were given to the Eldar. Immortal, Capricious, and most farsighted of all,
2 also to Chaos. Traitorous, Deceitful, Servants of the Dark Gods,
3 to the Xenos races. T'au, Orks, and Necrons. the Young, the Beast, and the Spiteful,
7 to the race of men. Servents of the God Emperor, the Inheritors of the Galaxy.
But they were all of them, decieved. for another Codex was written…
In the Land of Ward'or, in the Fires of Mount Doom, the Dark Lord Matthew wrote in secret, a Master Codex, to rule all the others. One by one, all the armies of the other Codices fell to the power of the Codex, and from this Darkness, none could see hope.
But there were some, who resisted. a Last Alliance of Men and Xenos took up arms against the forces of Ward'or and on the Slopes of Mount Doom they fought for the freedom of 40k." |

What moral dilemma is that?
Unlike Hyperion, she doesn't even consider that the other side might have any good points to it.
A soul? Can't really respond to that, I suppose she does have a Warp signature.
She remembers her origins, but they dominate her entire character, she betrays people whom she has personally interacted with and befriended and acts irrationally simply because of her ladyboner for the Space Wolves. I wouldn't say that's admirable.
