'''Bounty Hunters''' are [[Imperial]] or [[Xenos]] citizens who are licensed by their worlds to capture or kill fugitives, criminals and creatures for a bounty.{{Fn|1a1b}} Some Imperial worlds are known to even allow [[mutants]], [[abhumans]] and xenos to serve as bounty hunters as well.{{Fn|3a}}
==Necromundan Bounty Hunters==
On the [[hive world]] [[Necromunda (planet)|Necromunda]] in the [[Segmentum Solar]], bounty hunters are amongst the toughest and most dangerous of all [[Underhive]]rs and are drawn from a wide range of backgrounds. They tend to be loners who neither need nor want to be associated with a gang, though some are erstwhile gangers and might still bear some of the distinctive trappings of their former [[Clan House]]. Many [[Abhuman]]s on Necronmunda also find the life of a bounty hunter suits them well, for the [[Blood Warrant]] that serves as their license and writ allows them to go where others of their kind might ordinarily be barred. Thus, it is not uncommon to see [[Beastmen]], [[Squat]]s and other stable Abhuman strains operating as bounty hunters far from those areas on Necronmunda that are set aside for their kind.{{Fn|1a1b}} The [[Merchants Guild]] also has their own private order of bounty hunters, known as [[Adurators]], who are granted special privileges and are equipped with the best weaponry and equipment the Guild has to offer. While they normally work on Guild bounties, it is not unusual for an Adurator to also collect bounties in the Underhive, where they can more easily throw their Guild authority around.{{Fn|1b1c}}
The majority of official bounties on Necronmunda are displayed at [[Trading Post]]s in the Underhive, and offer rewards to anyone who brings in outlaw leaders, gangs, mutants and other criminal types. The rewards offered are good, but the job is a perilous one and many bounty hunters die out in the wastes, slain by the outlaws and mutants they set out to hunt.{{Fn|1a1b}}
It is also common for bounty hunters to hire their services to a gang leader, if there are no decent bounties to be had or if their interests and the gang's are aligned, but such allegiances tend to be temporary.{{Fn|1a1b}}
The Hive World also has the [[Psykanarium Psi-Hound|Psi-Hound]]s, which are bounty hunting [[Psykers]] created and controlled by Lord [[Helmawr]]'s [[Psykanarium]] program, and the [[Psylock Cabals]], who offer to hire out their Psykers to Bounty Hunters.{{Fn|3a}}
