      Even that alone would be seen as Heresy and you’d have to die. It’s clearly corrupting you so much already that you can’t help but openly talk to it. If you were found doing this, they’d just simply kill you.
      The Grey Knight who wields that sword remains completely silent. He does not talk, he does not stay around other people. He sits in complete isolation, in complete silence, with a completely still and quiet mind, and simply waits until he is truly needed in combat.

    Something that should always be added (imo) when talking about the Imperium are these two lines from the intro blurb: "To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable."
    It takes some time to wrap your head around the fact that the empire is not just "bad" - they're absolutely deplorable on just about every front you can imagine. And that's what makes the setting pop - somehow they're not even the worst in the setting.

A Kill Team of T'au and an army of Sisters of Battle.

      @@jessISaRicePrincess While I'm a bit unclear on the exact definitions, there are indeed humans with a negative pshycic aura. These are the individuals that are turned into culexus assassins when discovered. And they are bone chillingly terrifying.
      A culexus's helmet is a weapon, as they use it to focus their negative null aura onto their target (typically a rouge psyker), which basically burns out the targets mind and soul, leaving only the body behind as a charred husk.
      But the helmet is also there to contain their null aura, since it has been trained and honed to such a degree that to a normal person, being in the same room as a culexus without it's helmet is pure agony that will make you go insane or beg for death if you stay in the room for to long.
      When deployed on missions, they have a handler from the assassin temple accompany them to make sure they don't come into contact with people unneccessarily.
      A culexus is also great at countering demons and chaos worshippers, and also the eldar (who possibly fear them even more than Slaneesh).

Also we can and have written tomes on what cunts the Catholics were to the protestants and how kings would order for the execution of believers in different sects of christianity. The only reason why the gap between orthodoxy and Catholicism is just now being filled is because people just care way less about religion and the churches aren't gaining political power from the gap like they used to. The main religion of the imperium (forgot the name) doesn't need and doesn't want a gap though since the tech freaks are way too valuable to have a religious conflict with, at least on a large scale, and the main religion already is too widely spread, where as the tech freaks are confined to one small red planet, so there is no risk in letting them run rampant.

      @@danielruiz8259 The only known humans who have faith strong enough to manifest literal miracles are the sisters of battle.
      Their faith is different to grey knights or custodies, as custodies are literally designed and gene coded to be 100% loyal to the emperor and no1 else, and grey knights condition themselves so that they see themselves as living manifestations of the emperor's divine will.
      The Sisters however, see themselves as willing human servants of the god of humanity. And their faith is so strong it actually enables the emperor to influence the material world.
      This is why the sisters army on the tabletop has an actual mechanic that is the manifestation of miracles (called "miracle dice"), and is essentially things like avoiding killing blows that should have hit, critically injuring their opponents with spooky ease, and other similar things.
      In the official trailer where you see sisters, primaris marines and necrons, you see a perfect example of a sister using prayer to heal a lethal injury caused by a necron weapon.
      While the sisters are possible for chaos to corrupt, they take a LOT of time and effort before they finally break.
      Grey Knights use shitload of specific anti-demon measures where even their names are crafted to have an arcane anti-demon effect, and the purest among them (the purifyers) have an aura around them that literally burns demons to ash slowly if then simply stand to close to the purifyer.
      The custodies are so unbreakably loyal by design that a demon once remarked that even with constant efforts, the heat death of the universe would have time to happen before a custodian could ever become corrupted.
