According to the current Codex, every order minoris has it's own doctrines. That would include yes/no on celibacy. I would say case closed, and it effectively depends on the order's Rule.

I'm going to assume that the above is the correct intent of your post.

And, yes, it does, clearly and without question.


Well, if you';re just going to post for me, have fun masturbating.

Well, your post didn't quite make sense, so I had to guess at what you meant,.

My post made perfect sense. Your example and source were incorrect. That's all it said.

Perfectly grammatical and it even fits the context!

Miko, I think there was a typo in your post and that you meant none but wrote one instead.

Exalted and laughed out loud.

Ok, now that it's been corrected so that it makes sense...


No, Creatures Anathema is pretty specific about the order minoris Sisterhood of Sorrowed Matrons, though exactly what went on aboard the Merciful Saint before the point of view characters show up and start purging is unclear, though whatever had happened was 20 years in the past and led to the ship wrecking into an asteroid.. It's implied though that the origin of the warp-craft was the tech priests on board, but it spread to the Sisters.

The rather lurid descriptions of dead women and mad women assailing the penal squads with warp-craft and bronze maliflects are quite clear. Apparently even dead, they served the warp.

If they were dead, they were daemons in the false forms of Sisters.

If they were using psychic powers, the same - the Schola screens out all psykers and sends them to the black ships long before they would have a chance to be recruited as Sororitas.

Ok, one, we have another thread for this: two, there are ways to become a psyker that don't involve being one to start with. Three, the mechanicus can make you get up after you're dead even without daemons, though how much 'you' is left seems to very significantly.

I don't think the 'echanicus can bring people back from the dead per say. They can use your body, but your mind will be dead. A brain connection doesn't survive more than an hour or two after death. On another note, were they Sisters of Battle or Hospitalier? According to other pieces of lore, only one Sister of Battle ever fell willingly to the power of Chaos. If they are Hospitalier like the description seem to suggest this would not upset any previously mentionned lore (same thing for the Daemon Sisters in Daemonifuge who were Dialogous and not Sister Militant). On a other note is their mention of those corrupted Sisters having non platonic relationship? We know Miriael cannot have any since she is stuck in her armor and her snake poisonnous tongue might make first base a bit complicated. What about those on that hulk?

I fail to see how any of this should be a problem…

For a depraved mind like the Prince of Pleasure, being stuck in a suit of power armor only gives one new canvases for flesh-crafting.

It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised.
