From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
→Description
Unlike their ranged-preferring [[Tormentor (Emperor's Children)|Tormentor]] cousins, Infractors focus on close-quarters combat. Infractors are drug-fueled killers that seek only to gain sensation by engaging in bloody, extreme, and sensationally wanton battle with the enemy. Unless given sufficient incentive to do otherwise, Infractors will simply kill, move on, and kill again and ignore most other objectives. Swift and arrogant, they view enemy positions as a personal affront and will instead push deep into hostile territory to kill for its own sake.{{Fn|2a}}
Rarely fighting as part of a cohesive combined arms force, Infractors expect others within their warband to keep up with them and are known to violently oppose attempts to restrain their swift advances. Always looking for the next challenge, unlike [[Flawless Blade]]s they are not particular about who they inflict violence upon. However , they still possess a monstrous ego, and view the battlefield as their own domain set up by [[Slaanesh]] to allow them to slice apart their foes.{{Fn|2a}}
In battle, Infractors most commonly wield [[Duelling Sabre]]s and [[bolt pistol]]s. They view their weapons as tools with which to paint their bloody performances upon the galactic canvas, though any aesthetic sensibilities they once had have since been replaced by psychotic violence. Squads of Infractors compete with one another to carve the most visceral trail of destruction across the battlefield. If they are not consumed by jealousy, other Emperor's Children who encounter these rampages may be inspired by the tableaus.{{Fn|2a}}
