Ghost Of Deliverance any fighter

XP cost (random): 6

XP cost (chosen): 12

Ghost of Deliverance is an honour-title rather than a rank — earned by a warrior who fought a whole battle unseen, the ghost the enemy never once got a shot at, and open to any fighter. It costs 12 experience to choose, or 6 if left to the roll of the dice. The Ghost permanently gains Infiltrate and counts as being in cover against ranged attacks while it is stationary, a hunter so at home in the dark that it is barely on the field at all. But it fights alone: it can never benefit from a friendly aura — not Rites of Battle, not Finest Hour, no leader or champion's support — for the solitary hunter is as invisible to its own brothers as to the enemy.

Shadow Captain Leader

XP cost (random): 6

XP cost (chosen): 12

Shadow Captain is a title for a Leader alone — a Captain raised in the tradition of Kayvaan Shrike to master the whole shadow-war. It costs 12 experience to choose, or 6 if left to the roll of the dice. While the Shadow Captain is on the field it always deploys hidden regardless of the mission, and once per battle it may let every friendly fighter within 9" make a Hit-and-Run — a free short Move away — after they fight or shoot, the living master of the strike from shadow moving his whole force at once. But he is the enemy's most-wanted target: any enemy that takes him Out of Action gains bonus reputation, and a force that learns to hunt him can unravel the whole gang's discipline. The shadow that leads is the shadow the enemy hunts hardest.

The Unseen Blade any fighter

XP cost (random): 6

XP cost (chosen): 12

The Unseen Blade is an honour-title earned by a fighter who took an enemy Leader Out of Action and escaped untouched, and open to any warrior. It costs 12 experience to choose, or 6 if left to the roll of the dice. The Unseen Blade always deploys hidden and gains +1 to Hit against enemy Leaders and Champions — the specialist assassin the whole Chapter is built to produce, the blade that finds the enemy's throat from a shadow it never saw. But once it is first revealed each battle, whether by attacking or by an enemy ability, enemies gain +1 to Hit against it for the rest of that battle. It is lethal until it is seen, and marked the moment it is: it must kill and fade, or be hunted down.
