Sonda Kerdos
Name: Sondra KerdosRace: Adeptus Mechanicus Hive Registered (Y/N): YAffiliation: The Adeptus Mechanicus Trade and/or Occupation: Logis Priest of Necromunda, Head of His Material Allocation on Necromunda, Info Executioner Wealth Level: "fancy pants"
Age: 52Height: 173.736cmWeight: 84.8218kgAppearance:
From the top of her head to the tips of her toes, Sondra's appearance screams Mechanicus Ruling Caste. Her hair, pulled tightly back in a bun is a dull brown with attention given to not one strand being out of place. Cold eyes sit at odds with her almost elfin features going so far as to her remaining ear having an ever so slight tilt to it. Enough to give observant Biologos pause but soon continue on. The dominant features of her face being for sure the right side of her skull. A gash of technology jammed into her head, a series of Logis implants and cognition devices, takes place of an ear to the back of her head. While perfectly within normal percentiles for height and weight for those with augments, she still seems off.
A thin taut body covered in the robes and colors of her Home Forge (Stygies VIII), Her robes are black with hard surfaces donned in the traditional color of Mars. Her garb otherwise is standard affair. Presently she has no mechandendrites but the back of her neck, hands and forearms are covered with nearly thirty data ports. Her speech is peppered with binaric code, rarely fully speaking in flesh voice.
Notable Gear: A small cohort of Servitors follow Sondra around on protection duty. Loaded with lethal armament, the five of them are kitted out for nearly any type of conflict and fully hard programmed to keep Sondra safe. Her personal gear is a standard affair, tweaked for her position as a Logis.
Skills & Abilities:
Forecasting - Sondra with her implants is a Titan in her own right at predicting future societal, economic, and militaristic trends. Being able to forecast conditions with almost prophetic ability. This is used to keep Necromunda's Cult Mechanicus presence on the up and up in comparison to the rest of the Hive.
Consumption Prediction - Sondra has a keen sense for knowing just how much it takes for forces of any kind to function. How much meal it takes to feed humans, how much sacred oil is consumed by servitors, how much care must be given to machine spirits. This in conjunction with her Forecasting abilities allows for a maximum efficiency operations across the Hive.
Resource Allocation - Her word is law within the Mechanicus when it comes to beings requesting resources. A quartermaster of sorts, all requests funnel through her mind and are given a thorough once over for their importance and value. If all is well, the request continues on. Denied requests are not given a second thought and must be resubmitted.
String Instrument Performances - Sondra is an extremely competent performer with string instruments and has a collection of them in her quarters.
Flaws & Vulnerabilities:
Blatantly Speciest: Cult Mechanicus and those that worship the Omnissiah are the truth. The Imperials and their cult are merely more resources for the machine god to use, a great deal of this bias is obvious as she is on the best of days, difficult to deal with for non Mechanicus individuals.
Cold: In the Imperium of man, it is difficult to call this a flaw but nonetheless Sondra has very little issue with other people dying for the greater good. If the cost value is too high, there is no chance of her allocating resources to save a life. Again, not uncommon but a true fact.
Drawn to the humanities: While her outward projection is cold and mechanical, Sondra suffers a great pull towards things like music, art, and beauty. What she considers art and beauty are different than what most people, it's still there. Again, this quirk of personality has caused her to be passed over for promotion and augmentation to Monitor Malevolus and despite her own attempts, her soul still longs for the expression of itself.
User: Sondra will occasionally indulge in gladstone use to better clear her mind to reflect upon the glories of the Omnissiah and to wash away the harsh realities of her position within the Adeptus Mechanicus. Able to differentiate logically her states of mind, she feels this will have no ill effect on her personage or position and sees the use as a net benefit. To her at least.
How would the people that know your character describe his or her personality? Inside the Cult, she's a prophet and beloved for her abilities to benefit the Machine God from within. More than once her resource allocation has allowed for the near miraculous extension of force for their undersized presence. When dealing with her logically and politely, she is generous and makes an effort to see that everyone is functioning optimally. Outside the Cult, from an Imperial view. She is a more machine than human, cold and distasteful to deal with she doesn't value Imperials and is probably up to something. She is seen as very suspicious and mysterious. Some Imperials may even see her as Heretical.
Character History:
Born on Stygies VIII in the Segmentum Obscurus, Sondra was immediately inducted into the Cult Mechanicus and raised with the utmost respect for all of the Omnissiah's glories. Her childhood was happy and calm, raised during a period of piece. This image of her life was well burned into her mind as an optimum state of being and helped guide her into a life of a Logis as she strives to reach this optimum through her position. It was perhaps this fact that led her into being a Logis unlike her parents who both were well vested Genetors still currently residing on Stygies VIII. Because of her training and drive as well as an expected genetic advantage as her parents were able to give her gene cleansing before her birth, her eventual acceptance into the ranks of the Logis was granted upon reaching all needed requirements. In a beautiful ceremony, she was gifted her current implants and awarded assignment off world.
Off world to be sure. Necromunda was her destination. Not some new colony like she'd hoped but one where her skills were to be put fully to the test. The hive world was awash in waste and ill allocation. Even upon arrival she winced visibly in the shuttle. Seeing the Hives being reclaimed by the dust, their vaunted spires sinking beneath the surface of the planet was upsetting. The gifts of the Machine God deserved better care and right then and there she vowed to do her best to fix it. Sailing past the main Hives, Sondra was soon established in the Mechanicus hive which to her enjoyment was in slightly better condition due to the abundance of servitors keeping the dust of Necromunda at bay. It was here she began doing what she was meant to do, keeping the Mechanicus affairs in order.
Fast forward thirty years. After decades of service, Sondra continues dragging her Hive up further and further from the Dust of Necromunda while the Imperial hives continue to sink. Oddly enough, despite undergoing no rejuvenation, her physical age and appearance is still youthful but her optimism and excitement have begun to wane. Days have merged into weeks and those into years. Yet still her task remains incomplete. At times, she ponders if it will ever end. If her task is but a fools one. At moments like this she merely can chuckle at herself for doubting before diving back in with renewed pride.
Contacts:
PDF General Ranthford - Head of the PDF on Necromunda, Sondra has a love-hate relationship with the man. As in he loves to hate her despite the long term good she's done for his planet. Between the countless fights over vox and the pulling of each other's asses out of various fires. It is the closest thing she has to a friend with an Imperial...of sorts.
Scribe Herald DuMont. - Active scribe for the Imperium with an emphasis on focus of good relations between Cults, DuMont is a pain in her side and known for requesting absurd allocations to maintain things like 'good will' and 'love'.
Gang Boss Shavver - Her most wanted, little is known about the being known as shavver but he is a constant threat on the Lower levels and more than once has she found a Servitor or lower rank priest stripped of his augments. The blasphemy will not stand! He will die.
Folks who would like to kill you: Poor relations with the General Imperial populace and Sondra is most likely a target by those wishing to Keep Necromunda under either Imperial or gang control.
