Commissar is a tem used in the fictional world of Warhammer 40,000 to represent a political field officer in the regiments of the Imperial Guard. They have the duty to maintain the morale of the troops on their massive campaigns, often in the face of staggering casualties. The Imperial Commissar, as described by many Warhammer novelists, is given complete jurisdiction to judge the actions of any trooper or officer of a rank junior to his own and to act accordingly. Among miscreant soldiers, a Commissar's wrath is as frequent a cause of fatality as the enemy. An imperial Commissar's word is immutable law and his visage is one of grim authority that is to be respected and rightly feared. They are often products of the Schola Progenium system.
