Cawdor Headsman

When you have so many goddamn candles, you become the Sistine Chapel.

The Headsman is a deadly executioner in Necromunda's House Cawdor and can be called upon to fight beside its numerous gangs.

Overview

Of all the Executioners of House Cawdor's ruling Thane, few are as pants-shittingly terrifying to the faithful as the Headsman and his great bloodstained axe. When the Ashmire Wyrd Covens sought to wrest control of the Primus North Sector-Theta 9 scrapping yards, the Headsman turned the local Cawdor gang’s fear into rage and piled the dome high with Mutant skulls.

When the Delaque of Logan’s Reach unleashed their spyker assassins against the faithful, the Headsman proceeded to give the House of Shadow some Bane-levels of back-breaking. And when killers from the spire came to unseat the Thane himself, it was the Headsman who painted the Cathedral of Woes red with the blood of unbelievers.

The Headsman is a lone unit that does not follow standard Cardow gangmanship. Rather, he is oddly treated more like a mercenary that always answer the call for Cawdor first and only. He is identifiable by him being an absolute UNIT, his badass skull mask and his ridiculous amount of lit candles all over his body.

Crunch

On Necromunda, the Headsman is a solid choice for a beefy melee beatstick for House Cawdor. Between his gear, skills, and the Stimm-Slug stash he will be wounding most everything on a 2+, with a damage 2 weapon. Truly a RIP AND TEAR unit that would make Khorne proud.
