Games Workshop - Warhammer 40,000 - Space Marines Primaris Librarian In Phobos Armour

Product Information

Librarians of the Ultramarines, Blood Angels, Dark Angels, and Storm Wardens are all trained in this way, and, with few minor traditional variances, have been taught to live by the word of the Codex. There are, however, a few notable Chapters that do not follow the Codex Astartes and its laws regarding the treatment and control of psykers, including the following. The Blood Ravens use a higher proportion of Librarians than many other chapters, [9a] and several of their past Chapter Masters, including Azariah Vidya and Azariah Kyras, have combined the ranks of Chapter Master and Chief Librarian. [11] A Vanguard Librarian is a Primaris Librarian chosen for Vanguard Space Marine service. Vanguard Librarians have mastered unique battle-disciplines that focus on obscuring the passage of their comrades and wrong-footing the opponent with illusions and hallucinations. Astraeus • Redemptor Dreadnought ( Brutalis Dreadnought • Ballistus Dreadnought) • Repulsor • Repulsor Executioner • Impulsor • Gladiator ( Gladiator Reaper • Gladiator Valiant • Gladiator Lancer) • Raider Pattern Combat Bike • Invader ATV • Invictor Tactical Warsuit • Storm Speeder ( Storm Speeder Hailstrike • Storm Speeder Hammerstrike • Storm Speeder Thunderstrike)

Chief Librarians also spend a great deal of time training their lesser codicier and lexicanium battle-brothers in the dangerous ways of the Warp. These Veteran Librarians are powerful and their primary role, when not making use of their gifts on the battlefield, is that of the chief psychic communications officer of their Chapter.

Inspiration

Space Marine Battle Psykers reappeared during the Great Crusade. The early history of the Librarians is chequered with mistrust and intrigue. Initially the Legions made no use of psykers within their ranks, however Magnus the Red, Sanguinius, and Jaghatai Khan proposed the Librarian program, allowing the Thousand Sons to train and create Librarius departments in a variety of Legions. [10] Librarians were favoured for use or have been seen within the White Scars, Night Lords, Ultramarines, Thousand Sons, Word Bearers, Salamanders, Alpha Legion, [17] Dark Angels, [15] World Eaters, [18] and Raven Guard [19] Legions. Some of the Primarchs were against using psykers in the Space Marine Legions at all, or at least within their own Legions. Legions that did not favour their use or employ them were the Iron Warriors, Space Wolves, Imperial Fists, Iron Hands, Death Guard, [17] and Emperor's Children. [16] All potential recruits into a Chapter are scrutinised by Librarians for psychic ability. Those with psychic powers undergo judgment that divides them into those who will join the Chapter as Librarians, and those who are so weak in power or character that they would present a danger. Worthy psychic candidates are passed on to the chapter Librarium for training. [1] The rate of attrition is the greatest for psychically gifted candidates, as they must not only be strong enough to survive the training that the normal candidate must undergo, but possess the mental strength to endure the shaping of their minds and to fend off the daemons and entities of the Warp who see the strong form and mind of a Librarian as a great prize. [Needs Citation] We can no more ignore or suppress our connection to the Warp than we could walk through a raging firestorm and imagine that we did not burn. We must master this gift, make a weapon of it, lest we be consumed by its fury." Lifting the Veil - Lifting the Veil is an extension of the art of Psychometry and allows a Librarian to look beyond individual psychic traces and relive the past of a place or item.

Librarian ( Epistolary • Codicier • Lexicanium • Primaris Librarian • Vanguard Librarian) • Chaplain ( Reclusiarch • Primaris Chaplain • Judiciar) • Apothecary ( Primaris Apothecary • Apothecary Biologis • Helix Adept) • Techmarine Astrotelepathy - Librarians can use their gifts to send psychic messages and communications across the vastness of the void in the same manner as an Astropath. It is, however, a task that is undertaken sparingly, as like much of the rest of the Imperium’s forces Space Marines make extensive use of Astropaths, reserving their gifted battle-brothers for more vital tasks. Any Librarian can use Astrotelepathy, provided he has enough time and skill—yet sending a message across the stars is a far cry from communicating with someone on the same world or even a vessel in orbit.Soul Sight - The psyker shares his witch-sight with his brethren, causing their eyes to glow with an ethereal light. So empowered, no foe can escape their omniscient gaze; the souls of their targets flare like flaming beacons in the dark.
