[[Servitor]]s and can be controlled by MIU's This is beneficial as in the absence of commands servitors will default to their base programming. Some techpriest will even install MIU's into a servitor, turning them into a [[Psyber Familiar]], allowing for even greater control.{{fn|40}}{{fn|36}} [[Cherub]]s, another form of familiar, are known to have some of the most independent behavior of any servitor - must be controlled by an MIU. Without such a link, the Cherub can become afraid and helpless. An MIU allows a Cherub's master to see, hear, and even feel what the Cherub feels. The bond can become strong enough that when a Cherub takes severe damage, the mental feedback also results in harm to the master. Many masters often become attached to their Cherub partly as a result of this, and will attempt to shield them from harm as a result.{{fn|36}}
In the event of the demise of the [[Skitarii MarshallMarshal]], a [[Skitarii Conclave]] is able to rapidly convene via Mind-Impulse links to determine a new leader in mere moments.{{fn|41}}
