- Recent History: In 343.M41, the Corgus Expeditionary Force encountered the head of the dynasty in the Celentis system within the Corgus sector and exchanged soul words with CEF. Ventured to Jutsi system with CEF to raid ruined hives for treasure.In late 344.M41, Celentis challenged the troublesome 'Imperial' Khan Jesterian to single combat for lordship over their respective hive sites. Refusing Brother Arcadius' offer to stand as a champion of the Imperium, the Rogue Trader donned an earlier recovered suit of power armor that the CEF had helped to rush back into service. Before an assortment of Astartes, members of the Missionaria Galaxia and technobarbarian honor guards, the two clashed in powered armor with sword & pistol. Though the technobarbarian was a mighty warrior and very clearly the holder of primitive genetor augmentations, neither his morbid powered armor nor his skill at arms could overcome the Rogue Trader. In a final act of madness or defiance, the barbarian attempted to turn his pistol upon Celentis' Arch Militant, Sister Serra. Brother Arcadius was able to interpose himself to protect the Sororitas, but his right eye was damaged when the barbarian's pistol pierced his helmet. Khan Jesterian's mangled head and his decapitated corpse are now held in stasis as warnings to those that would defy the Emperor's Light.
Ghosts of Retribution Intel Report[]
- +++CEF Report #792+++
- Rogue Trader Antonius Celentis was quick to offer friendship to the CEF, resupplying our ship and giving information on the Jutsi system freely. Our raids on the ruined hives bore fruit in the form of the Archeotech Plasma Reactor currently en route to you, and the transport services of the Pale Raven were offered in exchange for a single favour, which was soon called in to provide security to Celentis' negotiations with a local Khan. Celentis also gifted recyclable ceramite he had come across when Techmarines' Midas and Ramilles inspected various pieces of recovered machinery for him [recyclable materials also en route]. So far Celentis seems to be a reliable man who can be trusted to keep his word as well as show appreciation for freely offered services. - Lieutenant Arcadius
