Leash Range: A Psychoteric Wyrm has a 12" Leash range.

Psychoteric Node: When a Delaque Wyrd uses a Psychoteric Power, they may nominate an Active Psychoteric Wyrm they own that is within Leash range through which to channel that Power. The effect of the Psychoteric Power is worked out from the model representing the Psychoteric Wyrm, rather than from the model representing the Fighter. In other words, Line of Sight, distance, range and so forth are all measured from the Psychoteric Wyrm, not from the Fighter.

Burrowing: A Psychoteric Wyrm is able to burrow beneath and through the metal and rockcrete floors of the underhive, passing quickly through hidden crawl spaces and buried vents, before emerging elsewhere. A Psychoteric Wyrm may move freely under impassable terrain if it has sufficient movement to do so, but may not end its movement on or within impassable terrain.

Equipment: A Psychoteric Wyrm is armed with ferocious jaws. They may not purchase or be equipped with additional weapons or wargear.

PERSONAL EQUIPMENT

PSYCHOMANCER’S HARNESS

35 credits - Exclusive A Fighter wearing a psychomancer’s harness increases their Movement characteristic by 2", this may take the Fighter’s Movement characteristic above the maximum. Additionally, when this Fighter climbs, the vertical distance they move is not halved. In other words, they always count as climbing up or down a ladder. A Fighter may not be equipped with both a psychomancer’s harness and a servo-harness.

PSYCHOTERIC WHISPERS

The following are Wyrd Powers available to Delaque Fighters. Any Delaque Fighter with the Wyrd Subtype may select Psychoteric Whispers Wyrd Powers as an Advancement as if they were a Primary Skill Set.

  1. Terrible Truths (Single): Choose a single enemy Fighter that is within 6" and Line of Sight of the Wyrd. That Fighter must make a Willpower check. If this check is failed, they gain the Insanity Condition.

  2. Psychotic Lure (Single): Choose a single enemy Fighter that currently has a Ready marker and is within 6" and Line of Sight of the Wyrd. The opposing player must activate that Fighter next. The chosen Fighter cannot perform the Group Activation action when next activated.

  3. Deceitful Thoughts (Double): Choose a single enemy Fighter that is within 6" and Line of Sight of the Wyrd. That Fighter immediately makes a Willpower check. If this check is failed, the Wyrd’s controlling player may immediately move that Fighter up to their Movement characteristic in any direction (note: this move may not be used to move enemy Fighters off ledges, into dangerous terrain or any other part of the battlefield harmful to them).

  4. Cacophony of Silence (Single), Continuous Effect: While this power is maintained, all enemy Fighters within 6" and Line of Sight of the Wyrd must re-roll successful Hit rolls when making a ranged attack.

  5. A Perfect Void (Free), Continuous Effect: While this power is maintained, the Wyrd counts as always being in cover and within a weapon’s Long Range to all enemy Fighters within 10".

  6. Eternal Slumber (Single): Choose a Seriously Injured enemy Fighter within 3" and Line of Sight of the Wyrd, they immediately go Out of Action.
