Affects {{W40kKeyword|Dark Apostles, Dark Disciples, Masters of Possession, Possessed & greater possessed}} This detachment revolves around most daemon related units that Chaos space marines have access to.

*'''Warlord Trait: ''Shepherd of the True Faith'':''' Each time you make an unmodified wound roll of 6 for an attack made with a melee weapon by a friendly {{W40kKeyword|Daemonkin Ritualists}} unit within 6" of your warlord, that attack inflicts a mortal wound on the target in addition to the normal damage. This could have been a decent trait, but because the wound rolls must be unmodified 6's you can't use stratagems like VotLW to increase you chances of getting mortal wounds. This has fun potential if you have the CP. Run a Black Mace Apostle with Voice of Lorgar, and follow-up with a MoP with this trait and the Hot Thick Rod Relic. Both have a nasty melee weapon that will cause mortal Wounds on 6's But again, this will cost 3 CP (Detachment, Field Commander, +1 Relic) so...arguably not worth it unless you have the CP or can farm it back. 
**This IS a decent trait if you play to the detachments strengths, and take plenty of possessed. Having them being buffed by a greater possessed and/or a MoP will make them ludicrous, especially if you use Vessels for the Neverborn on them as well. 

*'''Stratagems: 
**'''''Vessels for the Neverborn (1 CP)'':''' At the start of the fight phase pick a {{W40kKeyword|Daemonkin Ritualists Daemon}} unit from your army that is within 6" of a friendly {{W40kKeyword|Daemonkin Ritualists Master of Possession}} add 1 to the strength and attacks characteristics of the models in the unit you picked until the end of the phase. Don't forget to have a Greater Possessed nearby to jack that unit's strength up further.
**'''''Souls of the Devoted (1 CP)'':''' use at the start of your movement phase. Pick a {{W40kKeyword|Daemonkin Ritualists Possessed}} unit from your army and a friendly {{W40kKeyword|Daemonkin Ritualists Character}} that is within 6" of that unit and roll a D3. the Possessed unit suffers a number of mortal wounds equal to the result and the Character regains a number of wounds equal to the result. Not exactly ideal to zap your expensive possessed units just to slightly heal a master of possessions, dark apostle, or greater possessed.

*'''Relic: ''The Burning Rod'':''' Replaces a force stave. Str +3, AP -1, d3 damage. At the end of the fight phase, pick an enemy unit within 1" of the bearer. They take a mortal wound. Who let Slaanesh name this relic?
