'''Deathmarks''' are [[Necron]] snipers and assassins. Even when they existed as the [[Necrontyr]] in flesh bodies, Deathmarks had a reputation of precision and patience. Like most Necrons their technology lies far beyond the realm of mortal comprehension and they can effectively slip in and out of dimensions at will. Their victims will assume that they have been ambushed, that the Deathmarks teleported onto the battlefield. The reality is that they were already there, waiting for just the right moment to lay their trap and catch their prey with their [[Synaptic Disintegrator]] rifles.{{Fn|1}}
