The '''Ordo Malleus''' (literally meaning ''Order of the Hammer'' in [[Low Gothic]]) is one of the three major Ordos of the [[Inquisition]]. Based on the moons of [[Saturn]]{{Fn|13}} it is tasked with the responsibility of investigating and destroying the physical manifestations of [[Chaos]] throughout the [[Imperium]].
Known colloquially as '''Daemonhunters''', the members of the Ordo Malleus are individuals of great strength of will, able to face the agents of Chaos without flinching. Due to the highly secretive nature of its mission and the great mental strength required to combat the forces of Chaos, the Ordo Malleus is by far the smallest major Order of the Inquisition.{{Fn|6}} However, the strength of the inquisitors of the Ordo is bolstered by their [[Chamber Militant]], the [[Grey Knights]].{{citethisCite Marker End}}
