**Cilithan**

Arch Magos Biologis ‘Bor Cilithan’

Specialised in Bionics and the creation of Servitors, Bor Cilithan has studeed with the Adeptus Mechanicus on Mars on the subject of Mind-Machine Interfaces and after this with Inquisitor Kryptman on the subject of the Hiveminds domination over Tyranid creatures.

Shortly after his induction into the ranks of the Inquisition by Kryptman himself, Cilithan turned rogue and pursued a career as a radical Inquisitor for the Ordo Xenos.

On Anphelion V, Cilithan did ground breaking work on the subject of creating a Mind- Machine Interface that overrides the Hiveminds influence. Extensive implant surgery was applied to a score of different Tyranid creatures, effectively removing the section of the organism tasked with communicating with the Hivemind and replacing it with Servitor-like mindcontrol devices.

When news spread of Cilithan keeping a host of bionically enhanced Tyranid monsters, he was branded excommunicatis and has since been hunted by the Inquisition. Cilithan himself remains loyal to the Imperium however and seeks foremost to use his army of Servitors against various Xenos threats. Cilithan is convinced of his own righteousness and will defend himself against any Imperial attempts to exterminate him.

At this given moment in time, Cilithans host consists of his retinue, a Platoon of loyal Inquistorial Stormroopers, three fast monotail creatures and seven subdued and enhanced Tyranid Monstrous Creatures.

180? - Winged Hive Tyrant, twin Scytals, Toxin Sacs, Toxic Miasma, Adrenal Glands

40 points - Ravaner, Scytals, Rending Claws (all Conversions using the Necron Wraith)

What do you guys think of the idea, of the list etc. Is the fluff more or less plausible? Would you mind playing something like this? Is the list any good? Thnx for your replies...

Cilithan out...

**Poisonrogue**

For starters, i would use the same weapons on the carnies if they are all supposed to represent the same weapon (i.e. devourers). Other wise, it could get confusing and the list would be quit confusing already. Unless you are doing some SERIOUS conversions on a lot of the models, it will be very confusing for your opponents...
