I'd like to emblazon something with a symbol that represents the Ordo Xenos (and only the Ordo Xenos).

So I'm wondering if the 3 Ordos have their own unique logos.

There's way way more than the three big ones, but yeh they do.

This is ordo xenos if I remember right, or just death watch.

Pretty sure the Ordos arent so formalized that they have uniform badges distinct from other Ordos. At least, not ones with a unified language of iconography that would definitively say 'that's an Ordo Xenos' that extends beyond the leeway Inquisitors have to personally customize their uniform.

The specific common elements that identify an inquisitorial symbol is the three cross-bars on the I. I imagine variations that identify an Inquisitor more strongly with one Ordo should probably take hints from the symbols of the chambers militant.

EG: Ordo Xenos could have equal-length cross-bars and a skull/crossbones in the middle. Hereticus could incorporate the spiked ring around the skull that signifies the ecclesiarchy. Malleus... I dunno, a hammer or something?

So you're saying the two blue ones are Ordo Malleus?




the wikia just says "Several variant Inquisitorial Rosettes"

If you look closely, the three inquisitorial cross-bars are inlaid inside the golden halo.

Fw's grey knight icons are similar to the 2 I said were mallus. Also 2 crossed force swords seems grey knighty.
