Acuitor Mech-Assassin - History: The Acuitor Set Mech-Assassins of the Lathes are notorious killers that hail from the Adeptus Mechanicus Forge Worlds in the Calixis Sector known as the Lathes. Though the truth of the origins of the Acuitor Set is scattered throughout the Lathe Worlds like scraps of data disrupted with a ferromagnetic purge, some shadowy records still remain.During the days of the Angevin Crusade, a pious magos by the name of Samadhi led his modest forces to several key victories in the Mechanicus' grand campaign against the Adrantians in what would eventually become the Calixis Sector.After the Lathe Worlds were granted to the Adeptus Mechanicus in 380.M39 for their efforts in the crusade, Samadhi used his new-wrought influence to form a secret organisation. Some stories say that this was with the tacit permission of the already-powerful Lords Dragon, the Mechanicus' secret cabal of doctrine enforcers, based on a promise of future service to their cause.He then trained and dedicated the members of this sub-cult to the art of eliminating the enemies of the Omnissiah. Samadhi established the hidden fortresses scattered throughout the realm of the Lathes, such as Rasamal on Lathe-Hesh and the citadel of Tumala in the heart of the shrouded Panopticon Orbital Station, in which his disciples could be sharpened into perfect tools of the Omnissiah and terrifying instruments of death.It is whispered that, one day, Samadhi himself vanished into the depths of the archive of Tumala, perhaps finally betrayed by the frailty of flesh, or perhaps becoming one with the ancient cogitators contained in the fortress. No matter the circumstances of his departure, Samadhi's disciples rallied around the data-tracts that the first grand magister of the Acuitor Set left in his wake.His adherents believe that these data-tracts, based on recordings of his own cogitations, contain his ultimate scheme -- a plan in which all disciples participate, but that none fully understand. Decanting his stored knowledge into their own minds, the agents of the Acuitor Set followed in their patron's footsteps and tirelessly hunted any they saw as obstacles to the goals of the Adeptus Mechanicus in the Calixis Sector.Starting with the first disciples to succeed the patron of the Acuitor Set, all those who have claimed the title of magister within the organisation have taken on the cognomen "Magister Samadhi" upon their ascension to this elevated rank, and through them, Samadhi's name has become as Death itself.In this day and age, the Acuitor Set has quietly expanded, and though its members are still fleetingly rare, there are several worlds upon which they recruit those gifted in treading the Omnissiah's darker paths. Most of the recruits are already seasoned Tech-priests, those who have already had to call upon their unique skills to slay their foes, either because of battlefield appointments, poor luck, or a logical reason that required violent conflict.After passing rigorous trials, recruits are infused with the data-tracks of the order's long-missing founder. Though recruits remain individuals, each carries a part of the vast, calculating mind that spun the Acuitor Set into being.With the knowledge contained in the ancient data-tracks, all Acuitor Mech-Assassins can act according to a single, immense plan without ever setting eyes on other agents after their training or even grasping the true extent of the design.The labours of all become one in the shadows, casting the grim silhouette of Magister Samadhi over the Calixis Sector long ages after his disappearance.
