{{Spoiler|source=Horus Rising (Novel)}}The '''Invisibles''' were the elite bodyguard unit of the ruler of the planet that came to be known as [[Sixty-Three-Nineteen]].
no edit summary
Their name is derived from an application of force field technology that gives them their main tactical advantage. They possess a passive application of said technology that allows them to bend light around themselves, making themselves practically invisible, even to [[Space Marine]] helmet sensors. However, the effect fails slightly when the user moves, and careful scanning using high-contrast viewing tools can reveal heat-haze type blemishes in the air.
The Invisibles are chiefly notorious for enacting the murder of Captain [[Hastur Sejanus]] and all his glory squad. They were defeated by the Luna Wolves and ordered to be decimated.
Their technology was noted to have been earmarked for reverse-engineering by the [[Mechanicum]].<sup>1-p.32-34, 117</sup>
