Editing Icelus (section)

==Inquisitor Viscount Pascal Eneko Xabi==

Appearing outwardly as a frail, wizened old man, Inquisitor Pascal has a long history of service in the Emperor's Inquisition. Taken from his noble house by the Black Ships as a teen, the Inquisitor has since honed his psychic abilities to reach Epsilon-grade powers. Specializing in telekinesis and divination, Pascal is unafraid to use psykers, mutants and abhumans in his retinue. On Icelus, however, Pascal usually prefers to use natives, since abhumans and mutants are very rare there.

He has maintained extensive ties with House Xabi, that have previously provided their dynastic resources for Pascal in the form of informants, transport (stellar and planet-bound) and funds. Through his former acolyte, Mayra Ushas, Pascal liaises with the Adeptus Astra Telepathica and the League of Blackships. It is believed he maintains a librarium and research facility jointly run with the Adeptus Astra Telepathica, but that is as of yet unconfirmed. It is known however that he maintains a vessel, a herald-type ship comparable in size to a cobra class destroyer. This ship, the 'Inosaya', is known to possess advanced warp drives and plasma coils that allow for much decreased travel times in the void. Pascal also has full access to the asteroid facility built to monitor the Emperor's Nightmares chapter for deviancy.

Inquisitor Pascal is somewhat well-known in Icelian society for having been a ladies' man in his youth. Memories of his liaisons have faded as time has passed. However, Pascal is known among Inquisitors to have been romantically involved with two of his protegés, Inquisitrixes Lera and Mayra. 
Pascal is known to exhibit a fascination with Imperial heraldry, and is in fact a senior member of the sector's College of Arms and Heraldic Devices. This curiosity has also led to him taking an interest in ancient Icelus history, and he is rumored to have spies in the College of Archaeologists as well as informants in the Convent of the Nightingale.

Rejuvenation and prosthetics keep Pascal spry despite his three centuries, telekinetically augmented hammerblows keep him terribly lethal in combat and a penchant for scrying the future seldom leaves him ill-prepared. A well-connected and experienced Inquisitor, Pascal is also a well-known figure in Icelus social circles. Admired by many and hated by the enemies of the Imperium that dwell in the wastes and shadows of Icelus, Inquisitor Pascal Xabi is a force to be reckoned with.
