He's on the emperor's side, and therefore on the only good side to ever exist, you fucking heretic

*Smashes your face*

Well if you want specifics he is the leader of a street gang but it's alright since said gang promotes the galactic religion and does a lot of the cops work for them

I dont know alot about 40k but if hes some sort of priest should he atleast show mercy to gain more followers for the religion?

Heretics are to be purged so they can absolve for their sins. It's the only way

Looks like something Pat Mills would wrote.

In context, the redeemer is pretty much justified in everything he does. 40k is a really fucked up setting. The chaos powers and their followers are so irredeemably evil that anything short of killing every last one is an invitation for a horrific fate worse than death. Moderation may be useful today when people can change their minds about religion, but you can't cure Nurgle's rot or unfuck a slaneshi cultist. They burn at the stake because is the best, most reliable method of survival for everyone else, and even that's not enough.

He does show mercy.
When he razes a mutant village and decimates the survivors, he kills nine and sends the last one to wander the wastes as a warning to anyone that sees him.

>>90770752
The redeemer's only fault is an excess of zeal. It is not a sin but a fault, and if he does not rouse the ire of the Arbites or obstruct the duties of the Inquisition none should aught but revere him.

>>90771313
Those he would be showing mercy to are capable and willing to summon daemons to soulfuck every living soul on the planet and won't stop at anything to do it.

No, those fuckers just got declared traitors and sentenced to death for failing their task unless that captain gets on the vox yesterday.

First it was shit because chaos
Then it was okay because chaos went away for a bit
Then it was pretty fucking good with a technological golden age
Then it got really fucking shit when that tech went terminator on us
Then it went less shit for a bit when the machines got canned and Emps started uniting humanity but chaos started getting really fucky again because FUCKING KNIFE EARS
Then it got super fucking shit when half of the entire human military in the universe swore itself to Chaos and every monstrosity and xeno started taking potshots in the hubbub
Now it fluctuates between pretty damn shit and "FUCK, JUST KILL ME NOW OR LEAVE ME BE BUT CHOOSE"

And we're entering a new age with the return of Rowboat Gorillaman, and GW won't pass up the opportunity to sell more Primarch models, even if the Smurfs get the first crack at it.

and its why /tg/ sucks so much dick now cant discuss 40k anymore

I want more 40k comics though

>>90771313
Absolutely not. You know what showing mercy gets you in 40k? Showing mercy gets entire planetfuls of people devoured by demons and their souls raped for all eternity.

That sounds like hyperbole. It's not. It's 40k.
