Most of these look like there pretty reasonable, but point costs would be nice. ;) Maraad could probably be taken as just tigurius though.

I don't want a Tigirius clone. Maraad is an entirely different character. Not necessarily as powerful, but certainly more capable than your average Librarian.

 

I'm never sure on points costs. Any suggestions?

 

Also forgot to add that Orelis has a Chapter Tactics rule, where Combat Tactics gets replaced by Stubborn. The Protectors live up to the word, never backing down unless ABSOLUTELY necessary.
