Judicator
Judicators are warriors who serve in the Justicar Conclaves of the Strike Chambers. Whereas Liberators stride into melee with sword and shield, Judicators rain a barrage of magical bolts and arrows upon the foes of the Stormhosts.[2a][3a]

Overview
Judicators wade into war behind the shield walls of the Liberators of the Strike Chambers, raining projectiles made of lightning magic upon the foes of the God-King. Their attacks are swift and devastating, their bolts and arrows able to knock the howling hordes of Chaos off their feet. With the aid of their celestial weapons, they can strike foes at great distances and rapid speeds.[1a][3a] Judicators can also innately detect evil, an ability that has aided the Stormhosts many times such as when the Judicators of the Knights Excelsior sensed the ill-intent of the vampiric Lord von Drecht during a parley, releasing their arrows upon the Soulblight's minions lurking in the shadows.[3a]
Hierarchy
As is common among the warriors of the Stormhosts, Judicators are organized into retinues.[3a] Each retinue of Judicators is led by a Judicator-Prime.[2a]
Wargear
Judicators wield a wide variety of storm-imbued ranged weaponry into battle including Skybolt Bows, Shockbolt Bows, Boltstorm Crossbows, and Thunderbolt Crossbows. These weapons do not fire normal projectiles, but rather magical ammunition imbued with the powers of Azyr.[2a][3a] Judicators are able to defend themselves at close range thanks to their Storm Gladiuses.[2a]
