They are all but extinct in the rest of the [[Empire]] with most of the remaining sisters having settled in the nunnery in Mordheim. This might indicate an early GW stance on taking women out of their model range at least as far as typical good gal characters. With more recent additions GW seems to be bringing females back so it's possible they may see the field of battle in 9th edition.

In the current day of canon, most of the original Sisters were wiped out with the chaos of the Mordheim events.
