Demus Ragnok Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 So I've been rereading the Eisenhorn series and I ran across this in the second book. So if I'm understanding the book, the church has its own people dedicated to psyker hunting. Is there any other back ground on this? I don't have any older materials related to the Inquisition or Ministorum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Are you referring to that bastard Witch Hunter who goes after Eisenhorn? I forget the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Are you referring to that bastard Witch Hunter who goes after Eisengorn? I forget the name. Arnault Tantalid. That's right, the mental git in power armour trying to skewer Eisenhorn is called Arnold. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demus Ragnok Posted November 15, 2015 Author Share Posted November 15, 2015 Yeah. That guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicodemus Doloroso Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Sorry I don't know about these witch-finders, haven't read Eisenhorn and this is the first I've heard mention of them. Moronically, I sold my 2nd edition Sisters of Battle codex many years ago when I got out of the hobby and sold everything, so I can't consult that either.

SW1 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 From "The Inquisition" illustrated book pg 83 ... "Human male. Witch Hunter of the Adeptus Ministorum ... " It has the Witch Hunter in bold to refer to the entry and that states it is another name for members of the Ordo Hereticus. So he's a member of =][= with ties to the Adeptus Ministorum.

Olis Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Although members of the Ordo Hereticus are traditionally referred to as 'Witch Hunters', I had always assumed that Tantalid and others like him were free agents of the Ministorum that just so happen to also be called 'Witch Hunters' (I thought it was heavily hinted at, if not actually stated, that Tantalid worked for the Ecclesiarchy, not the Inquisition). It would not surprise me if both agencies had this sort of overlap, considering the bureaucratic nightmare that is the Imperium. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demus Ragnok Posted November 26, 2015 Author Share Posted November 26, 2015 Tantalid had no ties to the ][. Eisenhorn comments that the church should leave the job of the ][ to the ][ and that the overlap only ever created problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Indeed. Tantalid has no open ties with the Inquisition, though it's possible he has some that Eisenhorn doesn't know of (pure speculation, ofc). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
