<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Which primarchs were psykers?"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/31.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Which primarchs were psykers? Just a quick question, the title basically states my question, which of the Primarchs were Psykers?

Ages back I thought they all were until I read into angron and Khorne and realised that Angron wouldnt be accepted if he was. Then read into it and thought it was sanguinius, Magnus and Lorgar. However people keep saying that others are psykers and I'm confused.

Konrad may count as he can see the future, however it was stated that this was removed from the warp and was just a thing he could do.

Corax was said to, however I don't know if that's in sight of his invisibility (when he goes into shadows in deliverance lost) or he was shown tearing some poor guy in half with his power.

If anybody can give me a list on which primarchs were psychic and where there's proof of this I would be massively grateful.

Thanks,
Tom]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4687900.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4687900.page GMT Which primarchs were psykers? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4688128.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4688128.page GMT Which primarchs were psykers?

Not to mention that he takes a direct flame attack from Captain Auramagma, and is not only unhurt, but reflects it back on his attacker. Although he may have been wearing anti-psychic armor at the time.

It certainly puts a different spin on some of the Primarchs when you think that their abilities, such as strategy (Guilliman, Dorn) or subterfuge (Alpharius) may be as much the result of psychic powers as skill.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4688280.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4688280.page GMT Which primarchs were psykers? ot two larger things (like Russ' howl, never heard of that myself)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4688463.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4688463.page GMT Which primarchs were psykers?

Then read some books....
Spoiler:
“T’kar,” said Ahriman. “Tell me what is happening! We heard a psychic shout more powerful than anything I’ve ever known.”
“It was Leman Russ,” said Uthizzar. “Wasn’t it?”
Phosis T’kar nodded, turning and indicating that they should follow him.
“Most probably,” he spat. “Killed almost every Athanaean in my Fellowship, and most of the ones that aren’t dead are reduced to drooling lackwits.”
“Dead?” cried Uthizzar. These warriors were not of his Fellowship, but as Magister Templi of the Athanaeans, they were as much Uthizzar’s as they were Phosis T’kar’s.
“Dead,” snapped Phosis T’kar. “That’s what I said. Now stop wasting time. The primarch calls you to his side.”

Lorgar is almost certainly the most powerful psyker short of Magnus concerning the Primarchs.

In Aurelian, even Magnus is impressed by Lorgar's psychic growth, allowing him such feats as psychically tormenting a powerful greater daemon, and even telepathically forcing Horus to do his bidding, despite Horus's attempts to resist.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4689320.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4689320.page GMT Which primarchs were psykers?

Which book is Aurelian? I have never seen/heard of it and I thought I had read pretty much all the HH novels.

It was a limited edition book.

Sanguinius was said to have some form of foresight and Curze was haunted by the same.

Leman Russ had a psychic howl, but if this is him directly using it as an ability or due to his actual creation I am not sure, as all the Primarchs were created with warp essence.

Corax could effectively disappear, but remain in sight, a mind trick in a way.

Lorgar is the greatest psyker behind Magnus after he has decided to harness their ability since his siding with Chaos.

Fulgrim has also displayed an increase in psychic capability since his possession, whether this is borrowed power or not remains to be seen.

It's also possible that all could communicate telepathically as displayed by Angron and Sanguinius before the battle if the Eternity Gate.

Another Question now though, who could do what?

We've established that Horus can flay a man with a glance,

Magnus was the most powerful

Lorgar was very powerful as well,

Sanguinius had his foresight,

Corax had invisibility

Konrad had precognition through seizures and could create concussive blasts (as he did in the dark king, destroying glow strips)

Russ had his psyker disrupting howl

Kahn controlled the weather (like storm from X-men, but mongolian too)

Fulgrim's power was probably from the daemon, though Im reckon its still telepathic to try to corrupt others.

But what can the rest do? Shapeshifting Alpharius possibly? Mortarion enfeebling his enemies? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4689927.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4689927.page GMT Which primarchs were psykers?

Horus doesn't seem to be capable of active psychic power pre-Chaos, him flaying Pious (feth what GW says) occurred when he had taken in the mass might of the Dark Gods.

Also, I should mention, in Aurelian Sanguinius is mentioned as wielding a flaming Force Sword, implying to me that he could weaponise his psychic powers. Did Fear to Tread follow up on this?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4692190.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4692190.page GMT Which primarchs were psykers? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4693474.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/471886/4693474.page GMT
