Changes

The Culexus Assassins possess the "[[Blank|Pariah]] Gene", making them for all intents, ''soulless'', accounting for their having no lack of warp-presence. This gene manifests itself very rarely, in a single individual among a billion, or more. This extreme rarity, coupled with the inevitable losses during training, makes the Culexus assassins the rarest of all Imperial assassins.¹ The Culexus temple is known to hunt down and recruit these [[Blank|Pariah]]s but also to vat-grow them. Due to the nature of being parent-less combines parentless, combined with the pariah gene making them seem soul-less , these Culexus struggle with social interaction. Whilst able to mimic predictive human behaviour of a character they are playing as part of a mission, they may not actually feel emotions. ³

The [[Eldar]], whose leaders are usually psychics, fear the Culexus greatly. Farseer ''Alladrios Kulcassian'', of Craftworld [[Alaitoc]] coordinated a centuries-long effort to locate and to destroy this temple. Somehow he discovered the location and dispatched the ''Legacy of Eldanesh'', a shadow-class cruiser. However, using his precognitive powers, he discovered to his amazement that the temple's destruction would lead to the Annihilation of Alaitoc. Choosing the lesser of two evils, he re-called the cruiser home.¹
