Changes

Some tech-priests become secutors because of a hatred of tech-heretics and love of war and conflict, while others are fascinated by the intellectual challenges of warfare, strategy or perhaps a love of weaponsmithing. Others, of course, merely use the path of the Secutor as a means to further their political power, not minding extensive grafts of siege weaponry to their body if it means moving up within the Mechanicus. At the behest at their Archmagos masters of the [[Forge World]] from which they hail, Secutors are sent along with explorator fleets, [[Imperial Guard]] regiments and [[Rogue Trader]]s to retrieve ancient technology, often where such retrieval is made extremely dangerous by the presence of [[xenos]] or [[Chaos]] forces, and the martial skill of a Secutor is needed to ensure the protection of tech-treasures.{{Fn|1b}}
