Probably even before. Index Astartes has Blood Angel and Imperial Fist Librarians directly directed by the Emperor to counter sorcerers during the Siege of Terra.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458359/4464943.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458359/4464943.page GMT Re:Librarian Heretics?

At the time though, the Emperor had only banned sorcery as opposed to all psychic powers which is the current interpretation. So I feel this little bit will be changed by the time we reach it during the HH.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458359/4465397.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458359/4465397.page GMT Re:Librarian Heretics?

Librarians were banned at Nikea mostly likely to try and put the cat back in the bag, so to speak. I don't know if there's been any official fluff on why Nikea was overturned, but I'd say a pretty reasonable explanation is that once it was out, eventually it was realized that forbidding a weapon was pointless if your enemy was going to use it against you.

Guilliman definitely makes mention in KNF that the Nikea decision left them without their best weapon for combatting the denizens of the Warp. I'd imagine it's a good guess to say that, until we get some sort of definitive answer down the road, that the Emperor eventually relented (he was still responsive for a while being interred into the Golden Throne so it could have even happened after the Heresy) and then Guilliman codified it into the Codex Astartes with the input of the senior Librarians.

However, Librarians have existed in the game since long before the Horus Heresy era fluff came around, so whatever fluff has been created for the Heresy will eventually have to mesh with that "truth".]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458359/4465551.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458359/4465551.page GMT Re:Librarian Heretics?
