Djemja Falak
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
A Djemja Falak[1]
The Djemja Falak is a type of rare creature found in the Galaxy.[1]
A type of strange and repulsive cephalopod, for many years it was believed to be a Warp entity. It has bred throughout the galaxy by breeding in the liquid that flows through the cooling loops of plasma drives. When placed on a head, a Falak will inject neurotoxins into its victim. The toxin will rot its victims brain over time, but initially acts as a psychoactive drug that makes it a potent truth serum.[1]
Alternative names for the species are Djemdja falak and mind eater. Use of a Falak is an effective manner of getting truthful answers out of subjects, even if the subject is an Adeptus Astartes. [2]
