Are there any prominent examples in the 40k fluff of a Space Marine Librarian (or psyker of any other rank) being interred in the shell of a dreadnaught?

The fluff and pseudo-technological implications of it are interesting to think about. Would a dreadnaught frame allow for a larger-scale version of the Pskyer's hood to be implemented? Will an absurdly long imprisonment inside the dreadnaught eventually result in madness for a psyker, or would it be more of a meditative journey? Does the librarium have a large-print section for those of us with half-foot thick armorcrys viewports?

See: Codex Blood Angels.

And Codex: Grey Knights



Rulewise, only the above 2 codices have psychic dreadnoughts.

Fluffwise, there are of course going to be Librarians in dreadnoughts.

GKs don't have librarian dreads in their codex. They should. :(

Well, they have psychic dreadnoughts

Just a Force Weapon and Fortitude, but still.


Yes, Librarian Dreadnoughts would be frakkin awsome.

Part of the standard Blood Angels Furioso Dreadnought GW kit.
