Schola Cadet

The Schola Progenium takes children who were orphaned when their parents perished in the service of the Emperor of Mankind, from daughters of Imperial Guard officers killed on the battlefield, to sons of Imperial administrators lost in the far reaches of space, and trains them to become the backbone of Imperial society as servants of the various branches of the Adeptus Terra.

These children are known as the Progena, and most of them will end up serving the Ministorum or in other branches of the Adeptus Terra. Others will go on to become military leaders and special forces troops within the Imperial Guard such as elite Tempestus Scions or iron-willed Imperial commissars.

To hone their abilities, they are often sent into battle before their training has been fully completed, especially in times of war or great unrest, such as the situation the Ryxes Sector now finds itself in.
