Psy-Gheist
Psy-Gheists are House Delaque Psykers who use their abilities to gather information for their house.[1a]
Description
While House Delaque possesses many psykers, the Psy-Gheists are said to be the true foci of the psychoterica. They give voice to the Silent Ones, in essence opening themselves up to the will of the first Necromundans. Those influenced by Psy-Gheists are said to be driven temporarily insane by the experience, with many more breaking down completely into gibbering wrecks.[1a] Strangely, Psy-Gheists are tied with Shadows for being the worst members of the house at manifesting the power of the psychoterica (should a Shadow ever learn to employ it)[1b][1c].
Psy-Gheists are considered strange and alien even amongst the Delaque themselves. To many, they represent a kind of psychic evolution and foreshadowing of when the Psychoterica might consume them all. Some Delaque welcome this change, while others fear it.[1a]
They exhibit a great deal of control over various Delaque bioforms, particularly Psychoteric Wyrms. Some also make use of the specialized equipment known as a psychomancer's harness.[1a]
