{{stub}}[[File:Astral Spectre - 1st Ed.png|thumb|An Astral Spectre.]]{{cite}}Astral Spectres are warp creatures formed from psychic energy and the fabric of the [[warp|Empyrean]], and created by the foolhardy actions of an untrained [[psyker]]. They feed off soul-essence, requiring a constant supply of warp energy to survive.

While the natural form of a Spectre is incorporeal, they are able to possess the bodies of intelligent beings. They feed off the soul of their host, leaving them as a mindless husk, and absorb some of their host's memories, which the Spectre uses to maintain a façade of normality.
