The Order of the Baroque Chalice is a small Preceptory of 600 sisters belonging to the Convent Prioris. They are fleet-based and roam the Segmentum Pacificus hunting down heretics and orks.

History
In late M40, the Order of the Baroque Chalice was formed by the then current Prioress and her Cannoness Commanders after not receiving any communication from the Order of the Ebon chalice for five centuries. The commanding officers decided to form the new order in an effort to free themselves from ancient standing orders and place themselves back into the fray with the Imperium's enemies. They held the planet for two-hundred and twenty eight years before the orks finally dislodged the imperial presence and the planet was lost to exterminatus enacted by the ordo Xenos, after the loss of their homeworld, the Prioress commandeered the "Implacable Justice" under the authority of the ecclesiarchy. From this point forward the Order began a crusade of penance and hunted down every report of an ork presence and pouring everything they had available to them to crush the foul xenos menace, they are still on this crusade in the current year.

Homeworld
The orders original homeworld was named Crystillia, an imperial hive world in Segmentum Pacificus. When the planet was lost to an Ork WAAAAAGGGHHH! The order was then forced into a fleet based order keeping their sisters on the Dominator-Class Cruiser "Implacable Justice".

Organisation
The convent is split into three commanderies lead by Cannoness Commander Ardanna, Cannoness Commander Altarii, and Cannoness Commander Reyallia. The six Palatines are Celenia, Doralys, Lupita, Dolores, Trematta, and Zareya.

Doctrine
The order practices lightning strikes quickly closing any distance with the enemy to cut them down in close combat by the tactical use of elite fire teams laying down suppressive fire so penitent engines and sisters repentia can move in.
