In the Warhammer 40,000 universe, Inquisitors are powerful agents of the Imperium, tasked with rooting out heresy, mutation, and any threat that endangers humanity. Members of the secretive and feared Inquisition, they operate with near-limitless authority, answering only to the Emperor himself. Inquisitors are divided into factions, such as the Ordo Hereticus (focused on hunting heretics), Ordo Xenos (dedicated to fighting alien threats), and Ordo Malleus (focused on combating daemonic forces). Armed with a range of weapons and psychic powers, Inquisitors lead warbands of diverse followers—guardsmen, psykers, assassins, and even repurposed xenos—to achieve their grim missions. Their ruthless nature and willingness to make hard sacrifices often make them as feared as the enemies they pursue.
