Anyone have any good inquisitorial symbols? Links or pics would be wonderful.

I'm specifically interested in Ordos Xenos symbols.

not xenos but hell i love this one.

Go to Amazon.com
Search for the "Illustrated Guide to the Inquisition: Secretive Defenders of Humanity" book.

It's pretty much nothing but illustrations of Inquisitors, rosettes, and things of that nature.

True, very true. I own this book and its very good. I don't know if there's Ordo Xenos ymbols, but there could be.

What about digital images? (So I can cut them up and make them into stencils)

I just ordered that book. Seems like a good buy.

You can always scan or take pictures of the images in the book to use as stencils.

This is one for Emperor's Faithful and Manchu
TOO BAD CHAOS IZ BETTER

I'll run away now.

Check the covers of the Ravenor series. Ravenor was Ordos Xenos if I am not mistaken. Each book cover has a picture of a different Xenos Rosarius.

Also, as an addendum:

Inquisitors get their Rosettes made custom.
There's no "standardized" Rosettes, other than the basic 'I' with skull motif.
The rest is up to the Inquisitor.

The closest thing to Ordo Xenos I could find was this death watch symbol.
Oh, and iirc, GW makes a deathwatch conversion kit.

The ordos xenos symbol is that skull and diagonal bones without the =][= behind it.

I asked the same question on the-conclave.co.uk ages ago about the Ordo Malleus symbol. Turns out there isn't one.

What?

The skull and diagonal bones is the Crux Terminatus.

It's on *every single Terminator equipped model in every single Space Marine army*.

How is that the symbol of the Ordos Xenos?

ForgeWorld do a set of brass etch =][= symbols.

Huh? This is the crux terminatus...



The ordo xenos symbol came with the alien booster pack for Inquisitor. Was a skull with crossed bones behind it.

Good point, I look forward to slaughtering you soon.

Then where the hell am I remembering that insignia from? I know I've seen it in dozens of places.

Because it sure as hell isn't restricted to the Deathwatch and it sure as hell isn't the "Ordos Xenos Logo".

The Ordos do not HAVE any kind of standardization outside of the basic '=I=' and skull.

You tell me. I've always understood it as the Ordos Xenos logo since it came with the alien booster pack and in the exterminatus issue of the time that's what it calls it.

Stand corrected, had to consult the Inquisition book.

It's the Deathwatch insignium to mark that the Battle-Brother bearing it is currently in the service of the Deathwatch.

Still doesn't mean it's the "Ordos Xenos logo" however!

A standard Deathwatch symbol is still a common Ordo Xenos one, though. Might be as close as they get, or most Inquisitor's may use a variation on the theme.

The decorative must be common to all Ordos and used frequently, since there are multiple references to an Inquisitor displaying their rosette and getting waht they want. That wouldn't happen if it couldn't be instantly recognised.

Ahhh true.

Kinda makes me wish they'd go far, far, far more in-depth on the Ordos breakdowns, because even my illustrated "Inquisition" book doesn't say anything about it either way.

On a side note anyone know how I can get that Ordo Hereticus symbol to properly watermark my Army builder printoff....
