Synopsis
A peculiar manhunt is taking place on the world of Cauldrus Prime, not in the least so because it's less of a manhunt and more of a Sisterhunt.
Setting
Cauldrus Prime, an Imperial world. Kaerograd, a city of some importance and Namgorod, a ruined city where much of the action takes place.
Characters
- Lowen Tegget - A "Catcher of Men", or bounty-hunter. Equipped with an all-terrain bike, psyber-lures and a hunting las.
- Pavlov Curtz - Regent of Kaerograd. Despatches Tegget on the hunt and communicates the news that an apparent Battle Sister is causing mass-killings on the world.
- Canoness Olga Karamanz - Order of Our Martyred Lady. Killed with a blade.
- Sister Elias - Armed with a storm-bolter. Killed by flame and las-shot.
- Sister Bernadet - Armed with power sword and flamer; killed by a psyber-lure.
- Sister-Superior Miriael Sabathiel - ex-Sister of the order, captured and then released by the Emperor's Children and believed to be corrupted. The target of the manhunt. Captures and twists Tegget to her service and ensures the death of the trio of Sisters looking for her. Departs, with Tegget in tow, to hunt Eldar. The only known member of the Adepta Sororitas to have fallen to Chaos, her existence as a traitor is kept secret.
