NPCs

Members of the Inquisition

Interrogator Fofriss Alexis

Currently, the closest thing the Acolytes have to a superior. He runs the Archive and sends the party out on missions throughout the Caesin sector.

• Quest Giver
• Rank Up: Is promoted to Keeper of the Archive after surviving the assault on K4R4-Z4N.
• Reasonable Authority Figure: Well, as reasonable as you're going to get in the Inquisition.

Geoff and Gary

A duo of Inquisitorial Stormtroopers assigned to the Archive. They've formed something of a friendship with the Acolytes.

• Doom Troops: As Inquisitorial Stormtroopers, this is their whole aesthetic.
• Offscreen Moment of Awesome: Managed to successfully capture and contain the T-rex running wild on the lower levels of the Archive.
• Those Two Guys

Inquisitor Zarya Dormer

Part of the Ordo Hereticus, and had her agents recruit Rosa after assisting her in destabiising Clan Leon.

Inquisitor Johann Nougat

A member of the Ordo Hereticus, and delivered Sha to the Caesin Sector.

Mathias Steppenwolfe

A member of Inquistor Johann's retinue. Ends up assigned to Floria IV with Archibald to keep an eye on the the cathedral being built there.

• Amusing Injuries: Sha breaks his nose, which Inquisitor Johann finds hilarious. Later on, in The Ghostfire Incident arc, ends up suffering food poisoning thanks to Kadis' Lethal Chef status.
• The Bus Came Back: Returns over twenty episodes after his first appearance to act as the party's Inquisitorial contact during The Ghostfire Incident arc.

Inquisitor Gunn

A young-looking member of the Ordo Xenos. Was rescued by Anya and her squad from the jaws of Tyranids on the planet Tarsonis. As thanks, recruited them into the Inquisition.

Inquisitor Heinrich Montblanc

A member of the Ordo Malleus, and the one responsible for recruiting Kadis into the ranks of the Inquisition.

• Knight Templar: Like all Inquisitors, and probably the closest thing to a Knight In Shining Armour in the story.
• Large and in Charge
• Powered Armor

Magos Tector

A member of the Adeptus Mechanicus, a religious order with extensive knowledge of technology. Partners with the party to provide them with tech-support on several missions.

Imperials

Donu Opi, Trader

• Amazon Chaser: Seems to have a taken a shine to Kadis.
• Intrepid Merchant
• We Buy Anything
• We Sell Everything: Weapons, supplies, exotic creatures, Opi seems to have everything the party would ever want in stock...

Antagonists

Gérard Vasseur

Believed at first to be a daring mercenary, Gérard Vasseur is soon discovered to be an unwilling agent of one Magos Lycaon, a dangerous techpriest in charge of the Mechanicus enclave in Shipfall.

• French Jerk
• Only in It for the Money: All the information so far paints him as this.

Trenton Boridor

Leader of the Silver Lining Mercenary Company, a band of soldiers in sleek and shiny equipment with no known origin. Operated out of Shipfall until the Acolytes allied with the Tiger and Marauder gangs, forcing him to flee alongside Magos Lycaon and Gérard Vasseur.
