'''13-X''' is a [[Vindicare]] assassin, who was dispatched by the [[Officio Assassinorum]] to kill [[Faisal Mamoud]], the [[Planetary Governor|President]] of [[Samos]]; after he made plans to crown himself King and secede from the [[Imperium]]. He arrived on Samos disguised as a pilgrim and waited five days perched on a building, until the coronation began. When Faisal finally showed himself 13-X took the shot, but the person who died was a decoy who had been wearing a [[Holo-field]]. Faisal had known the Imperium would retaliate, once they learned of his plans, and had his forces on standby for such an event. While hidden nearby, Faisal ordered his guards to attack 13-X, who was forced to use his jetpack to escape. When the jetpack ran out of fuel, 13-X activated his parachute and quickly scanned for Faisal who he knew, from studying his need to micromanage everything, had to be nearby. 13-X found Faisal and took aim, but before he could kill him, four [[Thunderbolt]]s arrived to attack the assassin. He managed to destroy one with a well placed shot and prepared to go down fighting, as the other three began to shoot at him. Just then however a [[Rendezvous Vehicle]], sent to extract him off planet, arrived and destroyed the three remaining Thunderbolts. Acting quickly 13-X killed Faisal, with one well placed shot, before making his escape aboard the Rendezvous Vehicle.{{Fn|1}}
