The Myrmidons are noted as being expert killers as well as weapon masters and destroyers. They are often sent at the behest of the Archmagos of [[Forge World]]s to accompany [[Explorator]] during their expeditions of dangerous sectors of space as well as aid in the capture of the most dangerous of [[Xenos]] specimens. Some of the members of the Auxilia Myrmidon are also sent on missions involving renegade [[Techpriest]]s who are accused of the foulest of techno-heresies and are thus targeted with extreme prejudice. To aid them in their tasks, some of these Myrmidons are known to carry ancient and powerful weapons that are relics of the distant past.
Members of the Auxilia Myrmidon are noted as being towering figures who possess numerous hardpoints for weapons of arcane design. They are great war makers with knowledge of siege craft, devastation and weaponry making them without any peer that can match their abilities. Whilst they are few in number, they are heavily augmented with the most powerful of their ranks being nearly impossible to kill. They are a source of fear and awe amongst the worshippers worshipers of the [[Machine God]] and are cybernetically reconstructed to a level beyond that of [[EngineseersEnginseers]] and precepts.<sup>1</sup>
