Vidicare Assassins

The Vindicare Temple is one of the temples of the Officio Assassinorum1. Their motto is: Exitus Acta Probat: the outcome justifies the deed.

The makings of a Vindicare Assassin

The Vindicare Assassins specialise in vengeance and revenge killings. They make use of a specially designed, long range Sniper Rifle called the Exitus Rifle. The Vindicare Assassin brings inglorious death to the Emperor's enemies with a Sniper's bullet. Vindicare Assassins have been known to wait in a position for as long as two weeks before taking a shot. Many rebellions and cults have been ended with one, perfect shot from a Vindicare's rifle.

The extra high training of a Vindicare Assassin enables them to pick out a single target even amongst roving hordes of enemies on the battlefield.

Wargear

The Exitus Rifle of a Vindicare Assassin is his primary weapon, and is chambered to fire a variety of specialised ammunition types, therefore he is equipped to take out targets ranging from well shielded individuals to monstrous beasts or vehicles.

He is also issued with an Exitus Pistol, which fires a shot more powerful than most personal firearms used in the Imperium. Providing him with a valuable short-ranged weapon for situations where a sniper's rifle would not do.

Amongst his other equipment he is regularly equipped with, he receives a Spy Mask which allows him to pick out his target even in pitch darkness conditions, as well as a specially designed Stealth Suit which hides his form in his surroundings, which is a requirement of the supreme unseen sniper.
