Erya Nephthys

Erya Nephthys was once the most promising Inquisitor of her generation, who went renegade and became a symbol of infamy in the Calixis Sector, after she massacred a number of her peers in the very heart of the Tricorn Palace, on the planet Scintilla.[1]

During her career among the monodominant faction, her multiple, major wounds have driven her insane. After having lost an arm on Sinophia against a demon, being resurrected twice then spending a full year recovering from her terrible last mission on the deadly world of Dusk, her strife for her own survival grew to the point she became obsessed with her own death, and her quest for immortality.

She focused her hunt for heresy on necro-cults and heretek vivisectors, to steal from them theirs secrets, becoming a potent sorceress herself despite her puritanism. Until she raided the Hypocrasian Agglomeration Genators, sparking a schism between the Mechanicus and the Holy Ordos that threatened outright conflict. Summoned by Inquisitor Lord Caidin to explain her actions, she came only to steal several artefacts from the deep vaults of the Tricorn Palace, slaying several Inquisitors and their Acolytes with sorceries and forbidden science in the process.

The vilest of traitors, she attacked numerous other Imperial holdings and carved a bloody path cross the Calixis Sector, prompting a near-unprecedented blood hunt by the entire Ordos Calixis that lasted 15 years, from the Scarus Drift to the far side of the Azeroth Abyss, leaving no stone unturned, regardless of the consequences.

She died a third and final time, burning alive in the blaze of Witch Hunter Rykehuss' Inferno pistol and her ashes were interred in a sealed vault, in the very undergrounds of the palace she attacked, to insure it was a permanent one. However, she swore to him she would yet rise again and avenge herself on the living.[2]
