 Vindicare
Assassins practice callous, unfeeling destruction
which
eliminates the target with contemptuous ease. They
aim to bring inglorious death to the enemies of
the Emperor
with a sniper's bullet, and have elevated the skills
of the marksman to an art form. To complement this,
the Vindicare Temple emphasises stealth and evasion
techniques as well as weapons training. One of the
temple's maxims
is that a clean kill can only be made from an excellent
firing position, and Vindicare Assassins have been
known
to occupy a position overlooking their target for weeks
before finally taking their shot.
 The
skills of the Vindicare temple are commonly used
to
slay those who are suspected of harbouring a daemonic
entity before it emerges onto the material plane.
Many
false messiahs have fallen with a Vindicare bullet
through their brains as they preached their credo.
When such
charismatic figures die at the hands of a faceless
servant of the Emperor, their followers soon become
disillusioned
and fearful. In this way, many heresies have been stopped
with a single shot, although there are inevitably
occasions
when the Vindicare is too late or the daemon possess
the carcass of its host, at which point the Ordo
Malleus
will move into action.
Vindicare Temple Assassins may be included in your
Daemonhunters army led by an Inquisitor or Inquisitor
Lord as an Elite choice. Note that assassins from only
one Temple can be used in any force for any reason.
