Known Powers (in addition to common Hierarch Modron powers):
Magic: secundus have devastating magical powers that they are more than happy to wield against anybody that defies their notion of order. Wielding magical abilities at intensity 20, secundus can (like septons and tertians) wield both standard and priestly magics, and can thus cause considerable damage to the forces of chaos on any plane.
Paralysis: if a secundus manages to strike (and cause damage to) an opponent with a physical attack, it has the possibility of also affecting him with a powerful paralytic (intensity 18) attack, as well. If this attack managed to immobilize an opponent, the victim of this paralasys is trapped until the secundus lets him go. Or the victim can pass an average difficulty Willpower action against this power, that is.

Skills (in addition to common Hierarch Modron skills):
Boxing: like all other hierarch modrons (save for the Primus itself), the four secundi have this skill as a general matter of course. Now, it doesn't apply to any superfluous limbs (as they have none) so much as their sheer anatomical efficiency. As such, they may divide their pre-cardplay action score between two unarmed melee attacks, the last of which will occur as a contingent action.
Calling:
Soldier: moreso than any other beings in the multiverse, modrons live to further the influence of law and order. They follow the orders of their superiors instinctively, for to do otherwise is incomprehensible. While this calling sounds more militant than modrons really are, it should be noted that they are virtual exemplars of the soldier mindset.
Personality:
Godlike in personality, the four secundus live in peace and harmony with their one superior, Primus, and the order it provides them. They spend the vast majority of their time lording over the uncountable throngs of modrons below them (even if they can't communicate with them directly), so when a mortal speaks to them, they should seem aloof and detached.
Appearance:
Incredibly tall and thin (at least fifteen feet tall), the secundus are vaguely human in appearance, with long, narrow faces and deep-set eyes. Unlike the other modrons, the secundus seem to lack any obvious physical weaponry or mechanical apparatus as part of their being, but they may be so advanced that such devices are too small to be seen.
Ecological Niche:
The veritable rulers of Regulus (and thus, Mechanus), the four secundus each manage four of the sixteen regions of Regulus (and thus, sixteen individual cogs). They do so by sending down the decrees of Primus to the lesser modrons, and ensuring that the orders are carried out - in order that law may eventually come to the multiverse as a whole.
