Ivixia was recruited from one of the Schola Progenium on Alena-Mora. She was the daughter of the Imperial Guard Colonel Dannica whose regiment had been seconded to service with Inquisitor Grainne of the Ordo Hereticus during his Examinations into the Cardinal of Alena-Mora during the Sargossa Schism. The lengthy nature of this examination, in which tens of thousands were called to account necessitated whole swathes of the Cardinal's congregation be put under armed quarantine. Following the successful persecution of the Cardinal for his apostate teachings and the prescribed punishment of both him and his world, Colonel Dannica's regiment were granted feudal rights over the ashes of this world.
