We all know the Emperor forbade the practice of sorcery and the training of psykers outside of Astropaths and Navigators at Nikaea, although Librarians were re-sanctioned by the end of the Horus Heresy. Question is: do you support it, oppose it, or favor a compromise?

I should have left him there. He had served his purpose. He owed me nothing - yet he gave himself to me willingly. Why? I know not. He is nothing more than a pathetic human. An inferior race. A mon-keigh. But still I broke off my wings so that I might carry him easier. I took him from that place, into the snowstorm where our tracks will not be found. He is heavy. And he is dying. And he is slowing me down. But I will save him. Why? I know not. He is still warm. I can feel his blood ebbing across me. For every beat of his heart, another, slight spill of heat. The heat blows away on the winter wind. His blood is still warm. But fading. And I have spilled scarlet myself. The snow laps greedily at our footsteps and our lifeblood, covering them without a trace as we fade away.

As a Blood Raven, I would prefer compromise. Psychic talent is just that , a talent. It is neither good nor bad, dependent on its user. Therefore, while sorcery should be banned due to its unpredictable nature, psychic individuals should be collected and trained, and these trained psykers (Librarians, Sanctioned Psykers, even psychic Inquisitors) should be tolerated for the good of the Imperium.

Sorcery is What Led to Horus's change to the powers of Chaos , I find that pyskers beings used in Battle is a HIghly effective means of combat , espescially against that rely upon Pyskic energy , Tyranids in their synapse , if a Group of Pyskers could wage a " mind war " against a Synapse Creature , then the Rest of the horde would be Easliy Dispatched while the confusion reins

I'm good with psychics so long as they are trained and monitored, but screw that sorcery business.
