  • Where the Watch Masters are the masterminds of their order, Watch Captains are its fiery swords. These heroes of the Imperium lead the Deathwatch into the thick of the fight, binding their Kill Teams together into armies of black-clad killers whose mission is the systematic annihilation of the enemy force. Each Watch Captain is given jurisdiction over four Kill Teams, including their vehicles and the battle-brothers that attend them. It is the captain’s duty to learn and understand the personalities and motivations of the Space Marines under his vigil. After all, every Kill Team boasts an array of radically different individuals hailing from all over the galaxy. Without a guiding hand, the resultant clashes of culture and ideology could become a liability – but with the guidance of a born leader, each team is forged into a weapon far greater than the sum of its parts. No warrior reaches such esteemed heights without having proven himself in a dozen theatres of war. Many Watch Captains were once in command of a Space Marine company; amongst their number are Wolf Lords, Khans, Iron Fathers and luminaries from a hundred different Chapters. Some are promoted from within the Deathwatch, their conduct so exemplary they attain this rank within the Chapter. Regardless of their history, they think of little else than how best to slay those forces that threaten the Imperium. They do so not only by launching pinpoint strikes, but also by conducting the resultant battles themselves. Armed with an arsenal of specialist wargear, at close quarters they can fell the strongest xenos goliaths. The Watch Captains of the Deathwatch have seen alien horrors beyond number, and remained stoically defiant.
