Prodita Mendax is a Radical Ordo Hereticus Interrogator, who has a rabid desire to serve the Emperor and believes as an Interrogator she is above reproach.[1a]

While serving her Inquisitor, Mendax was sent to the Gilead System to investigate a Slaanesh Cult on the Hive World Gilead Primus. However while doing so, the Great Rift was born and the giant Warp Storm prevented anyone from leaving the System. Now trapped without any help from her Inquisitor, Mendeax became desperate in her investigations and soon escalated into a crusade against the upper crust of the Hive World. She also began to ally herself with other Ordo agents in the Gilead System and secretly adopted unsanctioned methods to fight the horrors of the Warp. One such instance, saw Mendax fight beside the Ordo Xenos Explicator Pascal, in order to destroy a Heretek Cult that sprang up in the wake of the Great Rift's creation. Though they later managed to kill the Cult's leader, their battles with the Hereteks' led to Pascal's death and left Mendax heavily wounded. Most of her body was destroyed as a result and Mendax was mostly rebuilt with Augmetics, including small tank treads that replaced her lower body. Afterwards, she consulted Pascal's research and learned of a Xenos device known as the Revelator, which the Explicator had intended to destroy. Mendax, however, believed the device could be used to allow her to escape the Gilead System and fervently began making preparations to claim it from Gilead Prime's moon Daedalon. Using her authority as a member of the Inquisition, Mendax was later able to discretely convince a group of Imperial agents to go to the moon and try to steal the Xenos device for her.[1a]

What becomes of Mendax depends on what the Imperial agents do with the Revelator, if they recover the Xenos device[1b]:

  • If they give it to her, Mendax will use her blood to successfully activate the device, but doing so creates a warp breech soon afterwards. A group of Pink Horrors emerge from the breech and it is possible Mendax could be killed by the Daemons before they are destroyed. If she survives, Mendax falls further into Radicalism, by claiming more heretical devices, and soon gains the attention of Inquisitor Tytrona Dikasune. The Inquisitor's investigation into the Interrogator will lead Mendax to be declared Excommunicate Traitoris. The Imperial agents who aided Mendax will then be put on trial for their actions in helping the Heretic.[1b]
  • If the Imperial agents refuse to give Mendax the Revelator, the Interrogator will attempt to forcibly take it from them. If she survives the battle, Mendax will become a sworn enemy of the Imperial agents and attempt to get revenge on them. If she is killed, however, Inquisitor Tytrona Dikasune will investigate her death and order that the Imperial agents be put on trial for killing a member of the Inquisition.[1b]
