Draigo isn't an Inquisitor and he isn't corrupted. 'Daemon Prince Tzeentch Inquisitor' is a nonsensical collection of related words rather than an example. Most psykers aren't Inquisitors and those that are are more likely to be killed before they get possessed and even if they were possessed it wouldn't count because it isn't them.

I will make a up some number-crunching here (I'm not saying it is correct or anything, but it will give some perspective of it), lets say 5 billion SOB has ever existed (with the Orders that doesn't engage in battle all time also) over 5k. years, then 1 billion Grey Knights at all have existed over 10k. years. See were I'm headed?
There are only 4 thousand SoB now, and they've only been around for three thousand years. 5 billion is way overshooting how many there have been ever.
Only 4 thousand? Heard about the Canoness Superior? The Orders total numbers are far greater than the numbers commanded by a mere Chapter Master. They have thousands upon thousands of angry nuns at their disposal, plus the logistical support. I'm not sure of the total numbers, plus there are six major orders, so that means at least 6000, and not all goes into the Order Militaris.

Or it might have thousands.
Considering millions of worlds, even if just a tenth of those worlds had a minor order with a mere ten sisters each (a dozen sisters is the lowest end of the range and definitely not normal for battle sisters), you'd have more sisters than marines because you'd also have the tens of thousands from the major orders.
Yes, but the Imperium isn't millions of worlds, it's "an Imperium of a million worlds" which is, of course, not a specific number, and probably varies by a few thousand, to a hundred thousand or so, worlds in either direction depending on the day of the week and who's supervising the Administratum census office that shift. So, yes, if a tenth of those worlds (100, 000) each had ten Sisters on it, we'd end up with like 1.3m Sisters.... that's still not a lot of Sisters.
That said, we can be pretty certain that even a tenth of the Imperium's million-or-so worlds doesn't have even one Sister on it.

It's at least a million worlds. That means, it's 1 million worlds, never less. And lets see, I kind of assume the 33k. hive-worlds send their share of orphaned girls to the Sororitas (through various Schola Progeniums), but on the same time, most likely ends up crewing the space-ships and doing other boring stuff you don't even wanna hear about, just as the servants of the Space Marines.

He didn't fall to chaos. On his last breath, he damned chaos.
He was so far radical he seemed heretical, but he was really just using Cadian Pylons to stop the Eye of Terror.
Who are you talking about cause
If it's Quixos(sp?) your talking about, he was most certainly corrupt, he made multiple daemon hosts, had a fortress surrounded by warp weaponry and commanded hordes of heretics.
Yes, and he was organizing all of that specifically to destroy the Eye of Terror.
If merely having daemonhosts makes you irrevokably corrupt, then Eisenhorn is an enemy of the Imperium.

It sorta like chaos but it where the people of poor grammar and spelling come from. The imperium has a special detachment to deal with them like the grey knights but called English teachers AKA grammar nazis.
Don't you mean the Ordo Correcticus?

To certain other Inquisitors, he is. Certain spoilers to follow:

Having correct spelling and punctuation just makes it easier to understand your posts for other people. For example, your post is missing a capital letter at the start, a question mark at the end, and may contain a woefully misspelled version of 'Inquisitors'.

Arguing with some people is like playing chess with a pigeon. You can play the best chess in the world, but at the end of the day the pigeon will still knock all the pieces off the board and then gak all over it. |

Also, "how" should be replaced with "what", because otherwise the sentence is straight from remedial English class.
