==Necromundan Bounty Hunters==
[[File:BountyHunter.jpg|thumb|right|250px|A bounty hunter{{Fn|14}}]]
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|1b}} 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|1c}}
*{{main|Venator Gang}}
While they tend to work alone, some bounties may be so dangerous that it requires several bounty hunters to work together in brief alliances called '''Venators'''.{{Fn|2}} Though some can become permanent partnerships and it is not unusual to see Venators, composed of blood relatives whose families have bounty hunted for generations{{Fn|3a}}.
