The [[Inquisition]] can sometimes make requests on behalf of a particularly gifted candidate, but the Officio Assassinorum has agents all over the galaxy scouting for new talent. If they are considered suitable may be given an opportunity to test their skills, typically by receiving an anonymous contract to assassinate a dangerous target. If they succeed then they are taken by a swift vessel directly to the Assassinorum Temple where they begin their brutal apprenticeship as if they were child candidates, receiving the same biological implants to increase their speed and accuracy as well as hypno conditioning to harden their minds and effectively burn their old identity away.

	Though all Temple Assassins are augmented to some degree or another, usually to increase their reflexes and response times, Vindicares are not [[Callidus\|shapeshifting infiltrators]], [[Eversor\|drugged-up death machines with two hearts]], or [[Culexus\|psychic voids]]; instead they are just a dude with a very nice gun. The Vindicare Temple is probably the least biologically interesting of the big four and is probably one of the reasons that adult candidates might be considered acceptable.

	While a Vindicare Assassin is still a perfect specimen of the physical human form, their particular direction is more related to maintaining mental discipline, allowing them to hold perfectly still for VERY long periods of time ''(we can be talking years)'' waiting for the perfect shot, without suffering from the stresses of loneliness or degrading due to physical atrophy. Perhaps because of this incredible self-discipline, it appears that they are most suited to leadership roles when the various Temples get together to form an [[Assassinorum Execution Force\|Execution Force]].

	As with all initiates to the [[Officio Assassinorum]], Vindicare Assassins are either orphans or have been abandoned as young children, generally from the [[Schola Progenium]] but potentially also from elsewhere. They are taken aboard special training ships back to Terra for sorting, where they undergo grueling training regimes intended to winnow them down and sort out the exceptional candidates. When they reach Terra, they are sorted according to their aptitudes and reassigned to the temple that suits them best. Where they will undergo a further ten years of apprenticeship learning their craft before they are considered ready to take a mission of their own.

	In addition to the Exitus Sniper rifle, and pistol combo. Assassins will carry a number of other long-range weapons, including [[Long-Las]], [[Immolation Rifle]]s, and very rarely [[Astartes Boltgun\|stalker bolters]]. They also carry a couple of [[Grenades & Explosives#Blind Grenade\|Blind Grenades]] in the off chance that the assassin gets wrong-footed and need to escape.

	Aside from weapons, the suit the Vindicare wears is a work of art: their Synskin is a cameleoline bodyglove that bonds with the assassin's body to enhance their reflexes and protect them from exposure to hazardous environments as well as providing a modest amount of armour. The stealth capabilities render them invisible to several types of sensors while the cameleoline makes them simply ''harder to see'' when they remain motionless; making it the perfect tool for an embedded sniper.

	In addition, the nature of the body glove allows for modular armour plates to occasionally be placed on the armour if necessary. Said plates are usually made of either Ceramite or Adamantium and explicitly spaced to allow for maximum coverage of vital organs in the event of the presence of a counter-sniper. The plates also incorporate electronic paint to allow them to be configured with a variety of camouflage patterns. These plates however are not used very often due to their bulk and weight interfering with most long-term assignments.

	The downside? 2+ to hit, with very few ways of getting him rerolls. Between 1/6 missing and 1/6 failing to wound, he'll fail to force an armor save a bit too often for some people's liking. Also, his 6+ to wound rolls don't cause mortal wounds, which means opponents with a 3+ or better will always get a saving throw.		The downside? 2+ to hit, with very few ways of getting him rerolls.

Both Pistol and Rifle can chamber the same ammunition, meaning there is no need to carry separate magazines and they both incorporate sophisticated miniature machine spirits and silencers.

	The ammunition for those weapons are just as interesting as the weapons themselves. Each round contains a micro-cogitator that turns it into a guided projectile that is able to make corrections to its trajectory mid-flight making it almost impossible for the target to avoid or dodge. This is especially good considering that they are being fired at by some of the greatest marksmen in the galaxy with one of the finest weapons available, meaning that a kill shot is virtually guaranteed. The casing of ~~Each~~ round can also be programmed to self-destruct after being fired where it will disintegrate and leave no evidence, or any valuable technology that can be stolen and replicated.

	Conventional rounds can also be used and are cheaper to manufacture, but are less ~~effective…Usually~~. It is still necessary however for the assassin to train with conventional rounds to improve his accuracy. The right to use guided rounds is earned. Usually after three confirmed kills. Additionally it may be the ~~vindicare’s~~ choice to use conventional rounds simply for the challenge.

	The rounds can be further modified for various purposes, though these specialist rounds are incredibly difficult and time-consuming to manufacture, meaning they don't get issued in large amounts.

	*'''Shield Breaker Rounds:''' each round is treated with a psychically charged imprint and contains anti-phase technology that allows it to pass through any protective energy shield from any source, whether technological or warp based. The Mechanicus ~~doesn~~'t really understand how this works, but they know enough to replicate it.		*'''Shield Breaker Rounds:''' each round is treated with a psychically charged imprint and contains anti-phase technology that allows it to pass through any protective energy shield from any source, whether technological or warp based.

	*'''Hellfire Rounds:''' The Exitus round contains a vial of mutagenic acid that can eat away at organic matter and corrode metal.		*'''Hellfire Rounds:''' The Exitus round contains a vial of mutagenic acid that can eat away at organic matter and corrode metal.
	*'''Immolator rounds:''' The exitus round contains a “cellular disintegrator” that causes any organic object hit by it To explode in such a way that it leaves nothing behind. Explicitly used to cause fear and distrust. Either by framing the target individual as a suicide bomber, Or to intimidate the target’s supporters if they are aware of who fired it. These rounds are usually conventional rather than guided, and are often used during conventional sniper operations.		*'''Immolator rounds:''' The exitus round contains a “cellular disintegrator” that causes any organic object hit by it to explode in such a way that it leaves nothing behind.

	In addition to the ~~exitus~~ Sniper rifle, and pistol combo.

In addition to the Exitus Sniper rifle, and pistol combo. Assassins will carry a number of other long-range weapons, including [[Long-Las]], [[Immolation Rifle]]s, and very rarely [[Astartes Boltgun\|stalker bolters]]. They also carry a couple of [[Grenades & Explosives#Blind Grenade\|Blind Grenades]] in the off chance that the assassin gets wrong-footed and need to escape. For super close encounters, they are seen armed with a [[Power Weapon#Power Blade\|Power Blade]], unfortunately, [[Fail\|there are no rules for this weapon making the Vindicare helpless against CQC]].

	Aside from weapons, the suit the Vindicare wears is a work of art: their Synskin is a cameleoline bodyglove that bonds with the assassin's body to enhance their reflexes and protect them from exposure to hazardous environments as well as providing a modest amount of armour. The stealth capabilities ~~renders~~ them invisible to several types of ~~sensor~~ while the cameleoline makes them simply ''harder to see'' when they remain motionless; making it the perfect tool for an embedded sniper.

	In addition ~~The~~ nature of the body glove allows for modular ~~armor~~ plates to occasionally be placed on the ~~armor~~ if necessary. Said plates are usually made of ~~Either~~ Ceramite, or Adamantium and explicitly spaced to allow for maximum coverage of vital organs in the event of the presence of A counter sniper. The plates also incorporate electronic paint to allow them to be configured with a variety of camouflage patterns. These plates however are not used very often due to their bulk and weight interfering with most long-term assignments.

	The Vindicare Spy Mask is also a sophisticated piece of equipment that contains a huge variety of tools from wide spectrum photo-visors, auspexes, magnoculars, and pict-recorders for finding their target at vast distances. It has a multi-channel comm sensor for monitoring enemy communications, as well as a rebreather and cartridges of concentrated food and water capsules for extended operations in unfriendly environments. The systems in the mask are barely understood by the Tech-Priests who manufacture it and each one is gene-coded to the specific assassin to ensure that it cannot be used by the enemy if it somehow gets lost.

	A “helmet” can be placed Over top of the spy mask (if so desired by the assassin). It is less of a helmet and more of a Mesh covering with armor plates on the exterior. It is explicitly designed not to block the sensors of the spymask. Though it can function as some degree of protection. Like the armor plating it Incorporates “electronic paint” to allow for a variety of camouflage patterns to be used on the fly. Also like the armor plating it is not used often due to its bulk and weight.
