I think that given the descriptions for all the Pursuer gear, they are likely felons or serial killers. When the Undead curse started growing out of control, Vendrick put them into service as a force to hold back the Undead, since they are already skilled at killing multiple people. So then they get their special armor and fancy magic sword, but they still keep the weapons of fallen foes as trophies. The little bit about resolving their sins is that Vendrick would have presumably granted them freedom for their efforts, but that hasn't happened yet, so still they hunt.
