Just wondering if there has been any other being that came close to The Emperors psychic might. I was thinking Eldrad, but I doubt it...

So yeah, that's about it, shoot away!

I don't know about the C'Tan dough. But according to new rumors they are slaves to Necrons so - I will say just no.

They aren't psykers in anyway, they hate the warp etc. etc.

The guy painting him.


Also the C'tan enslave the Necrons.

The C'tan aren't psykers.

And a weakened, still feeding Void Dragon almost killed the Emperor when they fought.

I don't think the Chaos Gods count as psykers, to be honest. But if Warp gods count, then throw some of the Eldar deities in there, as well as Gork and Mork.

But other than the actual gods, the second most powerful psyker in history, behind the Emperor, is Magnus the Red.

depends who is writing the fluff of the next eldar dex, if it is Ward you can bet that the Emporer will be lower in the rankings

RUMORS, Coa. Rumors. For all we know, the Necrons could have hugs for weapons.

And those hugs would still outpower a Tau Railgun, and be assault 8.

assault 8 hugs?!?! WERE DOOMED!!!!!

Lolol.

Anyway necrons pretty much hate the warp. They don't use psychers, or even use it for long distance travel.

But I would guess they have some pretty good tech for nullifying it (like pariahs), probably a pimped up version for the emperor.

Magnus the red was a pretty beast psychic , and he seemed to know more about the warp.
Mabe if he had his whole (pre-heracy) legion with him the he would have a chance. (OR now he is a daemon primarch?)

Yes Magnus is.

Malcador, the Sigillite, I believe to be number 2, after the Emperor. Magnus the Red being number 3.

Well yeah, my point was more, outside of the human spectrum. Maybe I should've put that in the original post... Oh well.

ToBeWilly wrote:Malcador, the Sigillite, I believe to be number 2, after the Emperor. Magnus the Red being number 3.

Magnus the Red is much more powerful than Malcador. Magnus the Red was the Emperor's first choice to replace him on the Golden Throne, he turned to Malcador to sit on it out of desperation. Malcador was dead by the time the Emperor's body was brought back to the Throne.

@Soladrin: If you're talking non-humans, and discounting Daemons and gods, then the Hive Mind is the most powerful psychic being. Unless you consider that also a god, in which case it's between Eldrad and the Doom of Malanthai, IMO.

If Ward write Eldar then the fluff will state that the Emperor is only known as "the Emperor" because Eldrad mind wiped him and then carved eldrich runes on his heart.

I think the Chaos Gods are truly the only beings in the HH fluff that could match the emperor. In the current 41st millenium fluff I would say the Hivemind is pretty powerful psychically. Then again I have always thought the Tyranids are being called into the Galaxy by the Emperor to finally finish off chaos since he failed.

Any corpse will do.

Any of the Ctan at full strength are a match or more for the Emperor, Powerwise. He couldn't kill one when it was crippled and weakened, just put it in a coma.

The C'tan aren't Psykers, they just tell reality to sit down and shut up whenever they want to.

None of them are currently at full strength. The rumors seem to be more in line with the shattered remnants of the other Ctan being slaved to the Necrons, not the Big 4 (what IS it with GW and having 4 uber creatures.. 4 chaos gods too..)

The Hive Mind as a Gestalt entity would probably be at least a match psychically for Big E, if GW wouldn't keep kicking them in the fluffy bits..

Physically? Makari the Grot (pre death) would best him.. he's dead, Jim

I can't think of anyone else who is on a similar order of power, outside of racial deities like Gork, Mork (more powerful, likely) or the Chaos Gods. Possibly the Laughing God (though he is more into misdirection) or so on.

The "four" theme has roots in Chinese, Korean, and Japanese writing, in that "four" is just a half-letter away from being "death," and the pronunciation is similar. Some Western sources assign the number four with a sense of dread as well, such as the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

And yeah, I would say that a C'tan at full power in the Materium is stronger than the Emperor.

Fair enough

Thanks for the mythological go-to

I have heard from reliable, just slightly heretical, sources that a corpse on a stick would be an even match for the false Emperor.
The same sources also told me that i had to overthrow the false and corrupt regime of the corpsegod and to bath in the warm blood
of his deluded followers. I think my sources are 100% legit.

You might want to recheck your sources.

The Emperor is a corpse on a stick

Magnus was nearly a match for the Emperor, possibly having been designed to replace him on the Golden Throne.

The Chaos Gods dwarf the Emperor in psychic might, particularly since he's dead.

Chuck Norris

but seriously i think magnus can match the emperor now in his daemon form
