The young girl studied long and diligently, cleaving to the precepts of the machine cult and prayed fervently every day that she would be selected to become a Electro-Priest like her father, and learn the sacred arts of giving life to hallowed Machines, perhaps to one day even become a Magos Cybernetica. And through devotion and dedication, to say nothing of her talent, she succeeded, passing above the ranks of the common masses and joining the Machine Cult as a young Electro-Priest, apprenticed under her father, who it need not be said, was very proud of her.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, such a ideal state of affairs was not to last for long. The implantation of the full body electoo-grid that marks a Electro-Priest from their peers also highlighted a critical flaw in her personality. While she may have presented a suitably emotionless and detached visage... this was less a genuine embrace of the principles of the Machine Cult and more a studied act that she had perfected over the course of her early years. The issue, ironically, was her religious frevor, a far cry from the measured respect and uncompromising faith that the Mechanicus expect, indeed it was more like what you would expect from a Imperial zealot, and to make matters worse, many other emotions had become tied up in her faith over the years... leaving her with a crippling Weakness of Flesh that could not be easily excised. Her lack of true control became immediately obvious with her electoogrid, however studied her coutenance might be, the grid was wired into her brain, and reacted to her emotions; most noteably excitement and anger, which could cause her to glow or spark unintentionally.<br/><br/>Electri-Priests are called upon for three main services; To enliven the bodies of new machines, to revitalize old or mistreated spirits, and to demonstrate the power of Machine Animus to the enemies of the Omnissiah. The Third she could execute well enough, but the first two were rituals of the utmost delicacy, a spark at the wrong moment could slay a wounded spirit, or banish one before it has probably bonded to its material frame. With her unable to properly control her own implants, there was no way she could be called upon to perform these duties. On the flipside, she had already been initiated into some of the cults higher mysteries, so she couldnt simply be expelled, and to make matters worse, she showed strident devotion to their calling, a keen intellect and other highly desirable traits. Those who stood in judgement of her considered having her converted to a Servitor, but in the end they decided to reassign her instead, to somewhere that her... weakness would not endanger others and where it would infact, be a asset. Perhaps one day she would find the necessary enlightenment to put her weakness aside in truth, otherwise... she would serve well enough as a Factor<br/><br/>Its the hard truth of the Mechanicus that each individual is assigned a role in life according to their abilities, and flaws, and no amount of desire can override blunt assessment. So it was that Sarah was stripped of her position as a initate Electro-priest and reassigned to become a Factor, a move that also tore her away from her father in one fell decision. She was allowed to keep her Electoo-Grid, since removing it would cause more damage to her dermis than was preferred, though the once obvious lines where covered over with newly grown flesh and the enhanced potentia coil that had once powered it swapped out for a more common class, on top of which she was coded with limiters to severely retard her ability to interface with the system, all together effectively stripping her of the power she had once been able to channel. To add insult to injury, many other modifications where removed or subsumed into her body, to return her to the humanoid appearance considered ideal for a Factor. She often jokes that growing her hair back and learning how to wash it was the hardest part of the process... but her humour hides a deeper pain. <br/><br/>That said, she was no slackard, and devoted herself to her new studies with similar determination if not excitement, and her new mentor proved a capable teacher, teaching her how to interact with nonmechanicus and facilitate communication and diplomacy between the two groups. She was ordained to work with the Munitorum, as much of the mechanicus' produce is consumed by the imperial war machine, and good communication has always been a vital part of that arrangement. Such was the duty that she would be entrusted with, though it was distant from the Quest for Knowledge, it was none the less a vial part of allowing the Quest to continue uninterrupted by the demands of the unenlightened. Unfortunately liaisoning with a organization whos purpose is War is not always the safest prospect, and recently her mentor was killed when a recidivist bomb exploded in a munitions store where he was negotiating quotas. After that, Sarah waited for the Forge to assign her a new mentor... there were many Factors who worked with the Munitorum... but instead she got a message coded in Binary with high level Mechanicus Signifiers instructing her to offer in the inquisition her full support... and mere moments later, came the order from the Inquisition that set her life on a new course.<br/><br/><strong>Personality</strong><br/>Sarah is cheerful and dedicated to the Mechanicus, despite the setbacks in her life. Her manner is friendly and open, and she generally enjoys being sociable with others, it is after all... her purpose. That said, it would be wise to keep in mind that she doesnt have all her proverbial pins lined up the way a human might expect, and her behaviour can seem erratic or cold at times, shes easily distracted and not hard to send off on wild tangents of topic and conversation. Her dedication to the ideals of the mechanicus is near absolute, and while she upholds the ideals put forth in its cult and would defend the Omnissiah as vehemently as imperials defend the Emperor, the focus on seeking knowledge means that she can become enamoured of inanimate relics that might be best left alone, and produces a certain degree of... distance from imperial heresies, making her less violent on the face of it. Hereteks however....<br/><br/><br/><strong>Appearance</strong><br/>Sarah appears as she does in the image, often wearing white robes wit ha red trim (as befits her novice rank within the admech), and armed with a large sword which, while intended for ceremonial purposes, shes quite proficient with it. All of her augmetics are hidden within her body, leaving her appearing the same as a unaugmented human. However, when experiencing strong emotions, particularly excitement and anger, the array of electoos just below her skin light up, and may even begin sparking gently, they crisscross her entire body from head to foot (think lots and lots of Tron Lines), but are normally invisible. Her hairstyle is actually a result of this, the two side-tails intended as a measure to prevent static from playing merry hell with her hair.<br/><br/><br/></div></div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Character Stats</div><div class="spoiler_body"><strong><span class="bbc_u">Rank</span></strong>: 1 Factor<br/><br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">Characteristics</span></strong><br/><table class="bbc_table"><tbody><tr><td><div align="center"><strong><span class="bbc_u">Stat</span></strong></div></td><td>Base</td><td>Alloc</td><td>Mods</td><td>Total</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Weapon Skill</strong></td><td>20</td><td>15</td><td>-</td><td>35</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Ballistic Skill</strong></td><td>20</td><td>0</td><td>-</td><td>20</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Strength</strong></td><td>20</td><td>10</td><td>-</td><td>30</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Toughness</strong></td><td>20</td><td>10</td><td>+5*</td><td>35</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Agility</strong></td><td>20</td><td>10</td><td>-</td><td>30</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Intelligence</strong></td><td>20</td><td>20</td><td>-</td><td>40</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Perception</strong></td><td>20</td><td>8</td><td>-</td><td>28</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Willpower</strong></td><td>20</td><td>7</td><td>+3</td><td>30</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Fellowship</strong></td><td>20</td><td>20</td><td>+5*</td><td>45</td></tr><tr><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Wounds</strong></td><td>7</td><td>5</td><td>+2</td><td>14/<strong>14</strong></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Fate</strong></td><td>7</td><td>-0</td><td>-</td><td>2/<strong>2</strong></td></tr></tbody></table>*Indicates total Advances/SCs<br/>Movement Rates:<br/><br/>Insanity: 0<br/>Corruption: 0<br/><br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">Skills</span></strong><br/>Speak Language (Low Gothic) (Int), <br/>Secret Tongue (Tech) (Int)<br/>Trade (Scrimshawer) (Ag)<br/>Literacy (Int)<br/>Tech-Use (Int)<br/>Charm (Fel)<br/><br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">Talents</span></strong><br/>Melee Weapon Training (Primitive)<br/>Basic Weapon Training (Las)<br/>Exotic Weapon Training (Stasis Grenade, Integrated Melee Weapon)<br/>Pistol Training (Las)<br/>Peer (Military)<br/>Electro Graft Use<br/><br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">Traits</span></strong><br/>Mechanicus Implants<br/>-Electro-Graft: Special Electoos that allow for machine data interface.<br/>-Electoo Inductors: Can be used to emit or siphon power in many ways. <br/>-Respirator Unit: Purifies your air, giving +20 to resist airborne toxins and gases.It also contains a vox-synthesiser capable of transmitting your voice in a variety of ways. <br/>-Cyber-Mantle: Mechadendrite anchour point. <br/>-Potentia Coil: Store energy and produce various types of fields.<br/>-Cranial Circuitry: Augments mental capacity<br/>Fabricated Flesh<br/>-Appear unaugmented<br/>-Requires a -20 Scrutiny Test to notice mechanical parts<br/>-As long as others do not notice, gain +5 to interact with nonMechanicus humans<br/></div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Equipment</div><div class="spoiler_body"><br/><strong>Weapons</strong><br/>Las Pistol (Pistol. 30m.

To her mind, the alien has nothing of value in and of its self, lacking the divine grace of Mankind, and their faith in the Emperor, so the question becomes; Why then, are they so often successful? Why have we not eradicated them? The answer, she posits, is in their technology. While she refrains from stating flat out where her opinion lies on the validity of xenos tech, she does make a great effort to study it, leaning its strength and weaknesses... if not its function.
