I like the "Night Reaper" by the way!

The Phantom of Mars-
There are rumors and whispers of ghostly being that haunts the Martian forges. Appearing only at night, as fast as lightning and as silent as the void itself, the ghost snaches its victims from their sleep, from thier homes, their work. No place is safe from this terror of the dark. It's victims are never seen or head from again. no signs of struggle, no trace resistance is ever found after these abductions.
Few have witnessed the attacks, but for the ones that have seen this spector's terrifing work all report the same event- "I'm so cold... So cold. It was a spirit... it appeared from thin air, barely visible, and manifested into a solid figure just long enough to grab it's prey and look into my soul as if it were telling me we will all sucumb to this fate, then with a flash of blue, both it and its victim faded back to nothingness. I can no longer find warmth. Not even the hottest Titan Forge can warm these bones. I shiver continuously from it's frozen gaze and I know with all certainty he will be back for me. It was Death and he will claim us all..."

The Phantom of Mars is a long forgotten lord whos army has been in stasis on Mars for millions of years. His current mission is the re-awakening of the Void Dragon, his Patron God and Master. Himself once "Supreme Master of Mars" commanded millions of Necrotyr during the "War in Heaven" answering only to The Dragon. Now he is utterly alone only being awakened himself by the "Martian Incursion" in 998.M41. Since then the he has been prowling the night stealing souls and spreading fear throught out Mars in order to supply the sleeping god with enough flavor to re-awaken and contiue his "Great Harvest" that was put on hold so many millions of years ago. Then he will have a means to bring his epic army back online to recultivate Mars and the rest of the inhabited worlds of his sector of space, starting with holy terra.
Using phase shifting and other ancient technology that borders on magic, the Phantom of Mars prefers to appear into the material world from no where on his unsuspecting prey and phaseing them both back out before even a breath can be taken leaving no evidence other than the occasional witness left shaken to his very soul. Always left cold and anxiosly waiting for the Phantom's return thier accounts are usually dismissed as sickness and insanity by the General Martian Athuority, but the Adeptus Mechanicus knows the truth is much deeper and infinetly more terrible.
Tens of thousands of souls have been taken since his awakening, fed to the "harvester" a machine that transforms living beings into the delicious and sustaining energy that the C'tan so favors. There are rumors that the Adeptus Mechanicus know of this machine and even its purpose but do not interfere in hopes that the "Machine God" will awaken and enlighten all of mankind.

Saint Martine

WS 6
BS 5
S 4/6
T 5
W 4
A 5
I 6
Ld 10
Sv 3++

Unit Type: Jump Infantry (unique)

Wargear: Puritas, Power Armor

Special Rules

Fearless
Hit and Run
Adepta Sororitas
Eternal Warrior
Faithful (3 faith points, Should Martine be killed the army loses 1d6 Faith points. If this brings the army total to 0 the army may no longer use Acts of Faith or gain Faith by Martyrdom)

Divine Intervention: Saint Martine must always be placed in reserve. She deep strikes without checking for scatter and can assault the turn she arrives.

Light of the Emperor: St Martine has the equivalent of assault and defensive grenades and further any models in base to base contact with her are considered to be striking at initiative 1. However in terms of shooting any cover save that St. Martine may be garnering is lowered by one as her light makes it easy to pick her out. (so a 4+ cover save goes to a 5+ save). Furthermore she can always be targeted when using the night fighting rules since she is illuminated.

Smite the Unclean: Martine has the USR Preferred Enemy (Daemons) and against Slaanesh daemons she re-rolls to wound as well. When attacking Demonically possessed vehicles she rolls 2d6 for armor penetration.

Purifying Flames: Once per shooting phase, Martine can expel golden fire from her blade that consumes all it touches. It is the equivalent of a Heavy flamer which ignores invulnerable saves.

Born Aloft by the Emperor’s Grace: She does not make dangerous or difficult terrain tests.

Stand with Me Sisters: All units that bear the Adepta Sororitas rule within 12” of Martine may re-roll failed Morale or Pinning tests.

The Emperor Protects: Martine’s save is considered invulnerable.

Puritas: This counts as a Blessed Weapon.

so what is she? about 1000 points?
S4/6?
T5?
I6?
and all them rules!
