Zealot Sicarius

The enemy are their equals. God is their only master.

Sicarii is Latin, meaning "dagger-wielders", and the men who held the title lived up to that name. Murderers and assassins, the Sicarii were Jewish freedom fighters dedicated to the liberation of their people from the Roman yoke, declaring that "only God should rule the Jews". The assassins worked in the shadows with other revolutionary groups, such as the Zealots, to sow chaos and disorder throughout the province. Pragmatic in their cruelty, the Sicarii killed many of their own people too - those who collaborated, those who sympathised with their enemies, and defeatists who advocated surrender.
