The '''Culexus Temple''' is one of the temples of the [[Officio Assassinorum]]. [[Psyker]]s are their exclusive targets.
The location of the Culexus temple is a closely guarded secret, said to be located on a planet which orbits no sun, and which is beyond the reach of the [[Astronomican]].{{Fn|2a}} 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 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.{{Fn|1}}
