The Castigator is a powerful warjack of the Protectorate based on the same chassis as the Reckoner, which is renowned as the first warjack entirely of Menite design. But in reality the Castigator was actually conceived before the Reckoner, but issues with its weapon system delayed its unveiling. The displeasure of Visgoth Ark Razek at this failure was so great that he had every mechanik on the project wracked within a breath of death before being restored and put back to work with renewed and terrified determination. Miraculously, the problems were resolved almost immediately.[1]
The Castigator’s fists blaze continuously in combat with extreme heat sending rippling waves of distortion through the air as the warjack charges into the enemy. Each fist is equipped with a sophisticated delivery system for Menoth’s Fury, which is compressed and piped into direct contact with the ignition temperature of the warjack’s powerful furnace. If beset by multiple foes, the Castigator ignites the air around itself in a powerful explosion of incinerating heat that instantly melts iron and cremates living flesh. One major advantage of the Castigator is the ease with which it is refueled. Its fists need only a fresh supply of Menoth’s Fury to be ready again for battle. Freed from reliance on support from Imer, the Castigator has been dispatched to the front lines of the Protectorate’s crusades, to bring the justice of an inferno to all who have forsaken the Creator of Man.[1]
