== Description == === Appearance === A tall thin man, with short-cropped black hair and a neatly trimmed moustache and full beard, Caelus often catches attention - mostly because of the blank gray orbs hidden behind a white silk band. Embroidered with gold thread and centered with the sigil of the Adeptus Astra Telepathica, it marks him as a proud member of that necessary, if at times feared, body. His extensive cranial circuitry and implants show little on the surface, with the only exception being some metal tracery around his eyes and behind his ears. === History === * '''Born to an Uncaring World:''' * '''The Black Ship:''' * '''Meeting the God-Emperor:''' * '''An Arrogant First Meeting (rank 1):''' * '''Follies and Forgiveness (rank 2):''' * '''Learning to be Human (rank 3):''' * '''Maturity of the Soul (rank 4):''' === Personality === === Goals === === Views === '''Emperor-Botherers (The Ecclesiarchy):'''<br> '''Brotherhood of Iron (The Mechanicum):'''<br> === Important Underlings === '''William the Shriven,''' (Choir rite-master). William runs the choir, making sure all are in tune with each other and managing conflicts to ensure they do not affect the strength and clarity of Caelus' sendings. A tall thin man, he is utterly dedicated to Caelus and to his own position.<br> '''Amela Givalt,''' (Choir head-of-household). This middle-aged woman is in charge of the choir support staff, ensuring that their quarters are kept clean and they are fed. Bullies the astropaths incessently when they neglect themselves. Also serves as chaplain for the facility, listening to theological concerns and offering advice as a retired member of the priesthood of the God-Emperor of Mankind.<br> '''Nort 'Longear' Devins,''' (Astro-listener). Gifted with a highly capable telepathic receptive ability, Nort is a valuable member of Caelus' team. When Caelus is too busy to listen for messages, it is often Nort who catches incoming astropathic communications. A small man and dedicated to his task, he spends most of his time off-duty sleeping or eating.<br> == Profile == {| class="wikitable" border="0" style="text-align:center" ! Character Name !!
