Seraphim Character by Dragoon

Seraphim Supreme Palas Athena of  OPHELIA VII       121 Pts

Equipment:  A master crafted bolt pistol.  Power Sword "Winnower", Purity
Seals, Jump Pack,  Krak Grenades, Melta Bomb.


SPECIAL RULES (winnower)
"Winnower" a beat up power sword that is very very OLD.  So old it
was rumored to be in use at the time of the Horus invasion.  This sword
acts as a power weapon but as it is soooo old you must roll a d6 at the
beginning of each hth phase.  On a roll of 1 it does not work (shorts out)
and Athena has to smack it off her boot to get it to work right.  If it works
normally it works as a power sword BUT it gives +1 to hit and +1 on rolls
to wound when used against anyone with artificer armor.  The last property of
the sword is that it grants an invulnerable save of 5+ . 

_______________Fluff

(optional fluff)  The sword was given to her by her Master (sensi?)  When
she completed her training.  She trained in the martial arts, both armed
and disarmed.  Mainly she did it to get a step closer to unifying her mind,
body and spirit into one deadly tool of the emperor.  Her master was given
the sword from his master, and ect ect ect......

She is Seraphim Supreme.  She is very busy.  When she isnt fighting or
doing normal duties, she is training all Seraphim in her Convent on Ophelia
VII.  She has been on many many campaigns with the sisterhood and has
worked with the Imperial Navy, the Inquisition (of course), the Imperial
Guard, and even the Space Marines.  3 chapters of them anyway......  This
is just some fluff for people who care about that sort of thing, there will
be more coming.... a whole book eventually.


She was given her name by (you don't know do you?)  By her father, who was
a great general and historian.  You can not be allowed to know more than
this at this time.  Anyway, she doesnt know or care why her name is what it
is.  It is just a name. 

She is a very skilled commander.  Not just in HTH and especially shooting.
tactics, studies, languages, cultures.  Ect...  Her most powerful thing
though is her faith.  Followed closely by her HARMONY she acheives with
herself, she is near perfect in finding harmony perfectly.  Lastly and by
no means leastly, she is very wise.  As in, she looks at things and see's
the value in them.  She won't just write off the space marines because they
don't worship the emperor the same way she does (for example)  Open minded
I guess you would say.  One point in her career her patrol happened upon
some Eldar warriors who where vastly outnumbered by Dark Eldar.  After
joining the battle and killing the worse of the two (dark Eldar) her patrol
thought they should finish the eldar as well, She would not allow it as
they had fought well, and had done nothing wrong.  Well, it turns out her
judgment proved very sound when at a later time......... (that's another
story)   anyway, you get the idea.   She is very very very devoted to her
cause and to the emperor.  But she see's things clearer than the close
minded people.  She thinks Space Marines cannot be all bad since her god
created them after all.  Well, enough of my ranting.  Just wanted you to
have an idea of her personality....  

____________________End Fluff

Special Rules: 

1)   She is seraphim and any squad she leads passes all
leadership tests automatically and ignores "outnumbered" combat modifiers.
Any OTHER units within 6" may roll ld tests off of Jane's leadership
characteristic.

2)  Ledgendary shot.  She may hit automatically 1 time in any battle.  (when
she MUST hit, she always does)

3)  She is a great hero but may not lead an army.  She may only lead seraphim
squads.

4) "winnower"  see above for rules



For those of you who don't like the name given.  Feel free to use any ROMAN
CATHOLIC generic name from the list below.  All of them are Saints in our
world btw.  Except Delores, but Delores is an awesome name.

Josephine, Catherine, Cecilia, Agnes, Delores




_____________ Tto show where some of the points come from.....

Remember

Jump pack 20 pts
MCpistol 17 pts
Melta Bomb 10 pts
Krak Grenade 2 pts
Purity Seal 5 pts
Fluff Rules pts...........
Special weap pts.....
Base Character cost.... basically I looked at the commisar for the leadership
10.... then I looked at sisters CANNONESS and the Space Marines heros and
came up with my base cost....  Leadership 10 is a big deal.  Anyway, I hope you
guys are happy with this.  Some may think it is too much pts.  Some may
think it is too few.  I feel it is pretty close, and in all actuality it
may be a bit cheaper than it should be.  Look at CPT Cortez in the back of
space marine codex as reference.....   He is 116 pts and has NO jump pack,
master crafted or master crafted weapon and no melta bomb.  But, he does
have an invulnerable save and some other special rules.  In closing, I
tried to be fair with this points..... I could have done better if CODEX
SISTERS was out...... oh well..... I tried, hope you guys enjoy.
