Born in the blood soaked period of the Imperium known as the Age of Apostasy, the Sisterhood rised to become the shield of mankind against the horror of the xenos, the mutants and the heretics. Yet, their very first actions outside the walls of their secluded homeworld monastery was to safeguard one of the worst heretic since the Horus Heresy: the Grand Ecclesiarch Vandire. Trusting his divine appointed rule after a being tricked, they served him loyally. The founding Sisters of Battle, abused and misguided, helped this heretical tyrant to keep his throne and hold his palace against the might of a rebelling Imperium. Desperate for a solution, the Custodes Commander, guardian of the God Emperor himself, seeked out their six leaders to convince them of the madness of their lord and end the conflict. He led them before the Golden Throne to meet with the master of mankind. What happen in there is shrouded in mystery, but, once out, the six Companion rallied their fellow Sisters of Battle and executed their former lord for his abject crimes. To repent for their own actions, the Sisterhood swore allegiance to the former rebel leader and new Grand Ecclesiarch, Sebastian Thor, and departed for a long Crusade that would see the fractured Imperium being reunited. The six Companion, Alicia, Katherine, Mina, Lucia, Sylvana and Arabella became legends and living saints of the Imperium; their achievement in battle only surpassed by the Primarchs themselves. Yet, one by one, they all fell to the treachery of the forces of Chaos, but the Adeptus Sororitas, their legacy endured. Now, the Sisterhood act as guardian of the faith. Fighting the war of the Ecclesiarchy, culling the mutants and the psykers and protecting the Imperium most holy ground. Though sworn to protect and serve the Ecclesiarchy, the Sisterhood is always vigilant of not falling in the same way it did in the past and expand its duty to protect what the Church ought to represent not what or who it is. Sisters of Battle are known for their peerless skills in a unique form of combat that mix mental discipline, faith and prowess in a perfect bland. Armed and armored with weapons and armor worthy of any Space Marine Chapter, they have proven to rival the Adeptus Astartes in excellence both by fighting shoulder to shoulder with them or faced against the monstrous traitor legions, a feat that was thought well beyond that of any human before them. Despite their martial fame, the Sisterhood is mostly composed of healers, scribes and teacher who provide precious services and aid that even the greatest warriors can't provide.

While the Imperium face its darkest hour, the Sisterhood flame help maintain some hope for mankind survival.

These sisters are covered in shame, wracked by guilt or remorse have only one option left for them to recover a portion their lost grace. They take the vow of the Repentia, leave their squad, their armour, weapons and name and done the gear of the fallen. They hide their face in long cloaks, bear on the battlefield a simple breastplate and chainmail that dig painfully in their arms and legs and has only weapon a long two handed chainsword or even the heavy and unpractical eviscerator chainsword. Their goal is simple, they will die fighting the enemy in the bloodiest manner and thus atone for their sins. While it is possible for a Repentia to return to her former comrade after she consider her sins atoned, it rarely if ever happen. Some Orders use the Repentia has a form of rite of passage or even a discipline tool, but it's not systematic.

It's during a joint operation with the Arbites that the Sisterhood had its first contact and use with such vehicle and those who did liked the tank so much that they petitioned the higher hierarchy of the Adeptus Sororitas and Mars itself to be furnished with such vehicle. Negotiation took a few decades and soon all Holy Orders started to be equipped with these fearsome vehicles with a few modifications to better suit the Sister's needs for example the addition of a pintle-mounted heavy flamer or meltagun. The Repressor is used as a form of mobile bunker by the Sisterhood, allowing them to set up their gunline more safely and efficently than the faster, but lighter Immolator and the more lightly armored and slightly smaller Rhino.

The Martyr Armors are a strange almost lost piece of technology. These impressive armored suit are between the Dreadnought and the Sentinel in size and power and look akin to giant armored celestial warriors. They are piloted by a single person who's connected to a mysterious neural interface that transform this light walker into an extension of her body. They transform its pilot in one large and surprisingly agile war machine. The only problem is that the neural interface is flawed it is excruciating for the pilot and since it cannot be removed. It will ultimately kill in terrible pain those connected to these armors. It requires an astonishing amount of willpower to operate these engines and great concentration. In the Sisterhood, these revered machines are used in two ways and only in the worst situation. Either a volunteer will be sacrificed to wield it's power thus Martyring herself to help her sisters in desperate times or a Repentia will decide that her oath his not enough to wash her sins and will elect to pilot one of them. None has ever survived from it, but the power of these machines have allowed to turn the tide of many battle.

An almost never seen sight. They are the incarnation of Sisters of Battle so pure and willful that they can return from the dead has angels of vengeance to help the sisterhood in its most dire times of need. Very little is known about those ghostly winged warriors radiating in light. Some speculate they are the shield maidens of the God-Emperor himself who dispatch them to ensure victory. Their Holy Spears are terrible weapons capable of cutting even the most powerful enemy in half. They possess skills rivaling that of the elite of the sisterhood and truly miraculous powers. Blades and shot pass through them like if they were ghost while their own attack seems to ignore protection to burn and cut the flesh. They are always seen in pair numbers like if they were twins, which seems to be the case for many of them. In the pair, one is always seen as a wrathful apparition directing her righteous anger at the enemy while the other one looks to allies with a soothing expression and determination.
