A surprisingly public figure for a member of the Ordos, Inquisitor Castellus is well known among the rulers of Askellon. Frequently present in the courts and assemblies of Asphodel Depths' nobility, she is more widely acknowledged as a diplomat than an inquisitor. For reasons of her own, she can often be found backing various political movements and persuading or coercing strategically sensitive members of Askellon's elite to do the same. Though she can be a great asset to those she favors, the governors and lords of the sector dread her appearance as much as a raven in the night, for they all suspect her motivations and rightly fear her methods.

Castellus' ring of intelligence agents keep well informed of her fellow Inquisitors' investigations, and she has been particularly interested in the events unfolding around Lord Sarawak. Inquisitor Castellus has requested all assets related to Laskaris' undertakings on Aventine, including acolytes, be relegated to her authority. It appears that she desires to pick up where Laskaris left off, but this is unlikely to be as straightforward as it sounds. Possessing a distinctly different skill set and political clout than Laskaris, her involvement may just be the right solution to prevent a civil war, or it might only further complicate an already impossibly precarious situation. Furthermore, her official goals can only be guessed at. While she has shown sympathy with Amalathian philosophy, the merits of her past work has been difficult to discern.
