I AM THE LAW!

The Judiciar or Judicar is an absolutely badass unit for the Primaris Space Marines who is judge, jury and executioner for the entire Adeptus Astartes. They are like the Judge Dredd of Space Marines and are charged with keeping Space Marines in line and carry out the will of their Chapter Masters; so they are akin to Chaplains, but they make Chaplains look like pushovers. Indeed, they take ceremonial vows of silence so they can become creepy edgelords in comparison to the Chaplains' bombastic firebrands.

The Judiciar is armed with an Executioner Blade specially designed for lopping off heads – and there’s a lot of ‘judicating’ to be done. Notably GW did not make these up, Executioner's swords were a thing that existed, hence why it lacks a sharpened tip: its only job is to slice people's heads off.

The timeglass looking device they're holding in their left hand has been revealed to be a form of esoteric wargear. It's called the tempormortis and like the name suggests it is apparently able to MANIPULATE TIME! How? Well, crunchwise it forces a specific enemy unit to fight last in combat (and likely messes with rules that demand enemies go first), which they can use to guarantee their big blade makes its swings before the enemy can even react. If we use some logic to think of what this does in lore, it most likely ensures that even if you resist, your head will be removed from your shoulders quite literally before you can do anything. Like the time devices of the Mentors Legion but on steroids.
