Witch Hunters are grim, cold individuals who have dedicated their lives to the eradication of corruption wherever it may be. Most witch hunters are the state-issued Templars of the Cult of Sigmar. However, there are a wide variety of others, from the Colleges' Masters Vigilant to local mercenaries hired out to a nobleman's service. What they all have in common however is their dedication and zeal against all things tainted and unpure.

Since the practice of any witchery outside of the auspices of the Colleges of Magic is deemed an abomination within the Empire, death by burning is the proscribed punishment for this particular crime - and the witch hunters are far from squeamish about meting it out. In recent times, woodcutters and witch hunters are kept busy as more and more people reportedly turn to the dark arts. All ordinary citizens agree witch hunters are necessary and the work they do is crucial to the safety of the Old World, but there are very few who do not feel a flush of fear when they see a figure wearing the familiar wide-brimmed hat, buckled tunic, and long black cloak.

If you are within 30 feet of the target, you gain 2 temporary hit points for each die of damage your mark deals. A creature with a mark on them is a marked creature.
