==Overview==
While many of these cults serve [[Khorne]] the Blood God, others are extreme sects of the [[Imperial Cult]] and fanatically loyal to the [[Emperor of Mankind]]. As the Emperor sacrifices himself for mankind's continued survival, these cults in return slay the enemies of the Emperor, offering them as sacrifices. Death cult assassins are often utilised by the [[Inquisition]], the assassins' skill in the arts of killing making them excellent executioners and infiltrators. They employ exotic ritual weapons for their work: stilettos and blades backed by [[digi-weapon]]s and needlers.{{Fn|1a}}{{Fn|2b}}
