Novitiates ^kt21

Novitiates are female Progena of the Schola Progeniums, who have been selected to undergo training to join the Adepta Sororitas. These aspirants are then given a Ring of Suffrage to wear and take the Oaths of Adherence, in order to become Novitiates.

Their training is overseen by veteran Sororitas, who ensure the Novitiates master the Adepta's fundamentals and this may last a number of years. Even if a Novitiate has already been chosen to serve within a particular Order during that time, their trainers will demand that the Novitiates know the basic skills of all of the Adepta's Orders. This is so the Novitiates can be a tool in the Emperor's hand, to either to cure, learn, counsel or kill.
