This article is about the Grey Knights' rank. For other uses of Justicar, see Justicar (disambiguation). |
Justicar is the first rank above Battle brother in the Grey Knights Chapter and is equivalent to the rank of Sergeant in other Chapters.[1]
The major difference between Justicars and lower ranks is that these commanders are allowed to wear personal heraldry.[2] Serving as the squad leaders of the Grey Knights, Justicars are Battle-Brothers with skill and experience that sets them apart from their peers.[1]
The Purifiers' equivalent of Justicars are known as Knights of the Flame.[16]
