subspecies list
They are unable to effectively shape the [[living metal]] of the [[Necron]]s, and doing so produces hideous effects as was demonstrated on [[Caroch]].{{Fn|10}}
===Known Variations===
====Psychic Kroot====
The [[Silver Skulls]] of the [[Adeptus Astartes]] encountered Kroot that had assimilated DNA from the [[Eldar]] and gained powerful [[psychic]] powers, which allowed them to cover themselves in an illusionary disguise that hid their true nature, appearing instead as dark, midnight-blue creatures with smooth skin, long sinewy limbs, clawed fingers, and large amethyst-purple eyes set in a comparatively small, elongated face that came to a triangular point with two nostril slits at the end, no visible ears, and a mouth full of a double set of razor-sharp teeth. Their psychic disguise was only ruptured when their cerebral connection was broken, such as when their head was severed, after which they would revert back to their true Kroot form.{{Fn|5}}
They also displayed the ability to generate multiple psychic illusions of themselves in battle, which appeared to their enemies as completely corporeal and capable of causing harm. However the illusions were extremely vulnerable to psychic attacks and would dispel back into thin air when hit by one.{{Fn|5}}
The Silver Skulls recognised that Kroot with psychic potential posed a grave threat to the Imperium and recommended the planet where they were encountered on be cleansed.{{Fn|5}}
====Green Kroot====
[[Kroot]] who have turned green, muscly and boisterous, after eating a fungal diet of [[Orks]].{{Fn|15}}
