Apart from that, as I said, he is cool!! 'burning hatred', 'military genius', can't go wrong there.
Not sure if he should have that forewarned thing benefit everyone in the army? perhaps just the unit that he turns to troops? I think that would make more sense, and be a bit less crazy...

GreyHamster wrote:This character is intended to serve as a hybridization of the Grand Master and Librarian archetypes to create a swiss army knife HQ in one package with FOC changes, deployment manipulation, and psychic powers for everything. A Librarian that trains to be ready for absolutely anything the Warp can throw at him. I'm aiming to be in the 225-275 range. Comments, criticisms?

One of the prodigies of the Librarians of Titan, Kintaran is possessed of a clean will and a burning hatred for the warp. Those traits would have eventually seen his selection as a Purifier had not his psychic potential been strong enough to draw the attention of the Librarius. His aggressiveness and adroitness with the blade led the others of his order to give him his nickname, for unlike them he often chooses to lead from the front and personally get into the thick of the close brawls. He has the streak of military genius that seperates Grand Masters from mere Brother-Captains, but even the Grey Knights do not allow Librarians to hold such a rank. But in practice, even the Grand Masters know better than to dismiss the Librarian Militant’s insight, for it is borne of the same power that grants the Prognosticators their precision.

Librarian Militant Kintaran HQ 2?? points
WS6 BS4 S4 T4 W3 I4 A3 Ld10 Sv2+/4++

Unit Type: Infantry(unique character). Wargear: Terminator Armour, Storm bolter, Nemesis Force Sword, frag grenades, krak grenades, psyk-out grenades, rad grenades, Iron Halo, psychic hood.

Special Rules: The Aegis, And They Shall Know No Fear, Independent Character, Preferred Enemy (daemons), Psyker (mastery level 2), Grand Strategy, Bastion of Truth, Forewarned is Forearmed.

Bastion of Truth: The Librarian Militant possesses a rare understanding and contempt for the Warp. His burning hatred for it fuels a psychic shield of unparalled might. He and any unit he is attached to has a 2+ Invulnerable save against wounds caused by Perils of the Warp or by psychic powers.

Forewarned is Forearmed: In an army containing the Librarian Militant, one Purifier, Interceptor, or Purgation squad may be taken as a Troops choice. After both sides have deployed, but before scout moves are made, the Librarian Militant may move any allied Troops choices without the Scout USR up to 6”. If those units are embarked, the transport may take the movement instead. Independent characters deployed attached to a Troops unit move with that unit. Dangerous terrain tests are taken as normal.

Psychic Powers: Cleansing Flame, Hammerhand, Might of Titan, Dark Excommunication, Psychic Communion, Quicksilver, The Shrouding, Sanctuary, Warp Rift, Unerring Righteousness.

Unerring Righteousness: This power can be cast in either player’s assault phase, after any assault moves are made and before blows are struck. The Librarian chooses one unit within 6”, including the one he is attached to. That unit’s Weapon Skill is increased by 2 until the end of the player turn.

Deadshot wrote:Drop Cleansing Flame. The reason Purifiers have that power is because they have an unparralled pure spirit, and their psychic powerrs manifest that. There is no way to justify him having that, fluffwise.


The Iron Halo will have to go. A 3++ in CC, and 2++ vs perils is too much. No one has that kind of protection, save the Emperor himself. There is not really much you could drop after that.
