Editing Redemptionist Deacon (section)

==Overview==

They are former members of the Cult's [[Redemptionist Brethren]], whose deeds in battle have risen them up to stand above the common rabble. To say Deacons have a talent for violence is to do them a disservice and they are always at the forefront of any Redemptionist assault. Armed with fire and fury, they show the Brethren of their gang how to wage war to the Cult's foes.

Due to the higher position, they are armed with more devastating weapons. This includes [[Grenade Launcher]]s, [[Flamer#Flamer|Firepikes]], [[Pump-Action Shotgun]]s, [[Chain Weapon#Eviscerator|Eviscerator]] and [[Chainaxe]], all of which have an attached [[Exterminator]], alongside [[Grenades & Explosives#Smoke Grenade|Smoke Grenade]]s. This is also where they start donning the infamous blow torch helmets. Their close-combat nature truly makes them the Yin to the [[Cawdor Firebrand]]'s Yang.

In a Redemptionist Gang troupe, there is always one Deacon assisting the [[Redemptor Priest]].
