Canoness Selena Agna of the Order of the Sacred Rose was the commander of the Sisters of Battle present on the Kaurava system in the game Dawn of War:Soulstorm. Apart from fighting the xenos and heretics in the system, she also fought against the Blood Ravens and the 252nd Conservator Regiment, deeming the former a threat for not ceding authority to her forces, and the latter as corrupted, responsible in some way for the Warp Storm. This is untrue, and Stubbs believes he is innocent. He therefore refuses to lay down his arms, forcing the Sisters of Battle to wage war against them.

When the Sisters defeat all the other factions, they began a massive purge to rid the system of anything and anyone suspected of Heresy. The planets of the system become Monastery worlds with one ecclesiarchal citadel for each of the six major military orders of the Adepta Sororitas, where millions Sisters of Battle visit the system as a holy pilgrimage and reminder of their crusade in the Kaurava system and to gather for "Prayer and Preparation".

If the Sisters of Battle are defeated, the Saint Anais would be killed in a hail of fire aimed at her head, while Selena Agna would order "Sisters, we must go as Martyrs! We must go up In Flames!" Selena Agna is seen to be awaiting the enemy to approach, and when they close in on her, she would activate a device that causes herself and the enemy near her to be burnt to death.

If defeated by the Space Marines, all survivors are treated with the utmost deference, and are given swift medical aid and safe passage back to the Convent Sanctorum on Ophelia VII where they will be at the mercy of the Inquisition. If defeated by the Imperial Guard forces, General Vance Stubbs remarks on his victory as a sign of the Emperor's will for their control over the system.

Her first name, Selena, is derivative of Selene, the moon goddess of Roman mythology; whereas her last name refers to the Hindu fire goddess - Agni - which is fitting, given the Sisters of Battle favour the use of flame-based weaponry in combat. If she is defeated by the other factions, she and her remaining forces offer themselves as martyrs to the Emperor, and shortly thereafter are killed in a fiery explosion.
