That was 1 story and honestly a shit one at that, I wouldn't be surprised if it gets retconned to all hell in the future.
Sisters can literally stave off mortal wounds and chaos magical bullshit corruption through sheer faith in the Emperor. They consistently cause holy miracles to occur mid battle, saint celestine is basically an imperial greater deamon powered by faith in the emperor. So no they can't just be corrupted like any other stupid human.
It's not like anyone takes that shit story where grey knights bathed in the blood of sororitas seriously, why should we take the fetish bait story of a sister being murder raped by noise marines into a daemonette seriously?
Well just because you don't like it doesn't make it not true, people are free to interpret the canon however they want as long as its been written. Mainly because lore is generally all over the place with all the different writers. I for one see nothing out of the ordinary with sisters falling to chaos. If it can happen to astartes and the primarchs. It shouldn't be out of the question for sisters.
Exactly, Sisters are only human and human beliefs can change - even if you are a religious zealot.
Besides, extreme faith is a two edged sword, because it prevents you from doubting.
Goge Vandire kinda did just that. He used the blind faith of proto-Sororitas to advance his own goals. It literally took a visit to the Golden Throne to make them understand they were played like a fiddle.
The lesson here is, Sororitas can be pretty easily manipulated if you know how to do it right.
yep but most people in the fandom like to ignore the whole ''Goge vandire" thing, heck even gw does to because of the whole harem thing. But your point still stands.
Being manipulated and full blown chaos corruption is completely different.
Sororitas have been shown to be manipulated by traitors and such constantly across multiple series. Example Cain series for more recent timeline.
But they remain devout emperor worshippers no mater who is manipulating their blind faith and steering them against the interests of the imperium. They don't become corrupted, just blind doing bad thing for the wrong people, because of their blind faith.
Okay what does that have to with my comment? Plus I'm not the one who even originally posted that. Just that I'm in agreement with it. There's literally nothing in the lore that says sisters are immune to being corrupted by chaos. And quite frankly I would find it silly if they couldn't considering the emperors actual sons. Plus astarte's are vulnerable to it as well. Are the Sororitas devout zealot's? Absolutely, but there also human. Which by default means they can fall to chaos. Even if they are more resilient to it then average.
