Default How a psyker really works

Knowledge = Power = Energy = Matter = Mass. A library is just a genteel black hole that can read

I won't even respond to this.. The equations wacky... Knowledge isn't a basis of a librarians power... Read fluff... There have been delta level psykers who can kill a man without even knowing what or how they do it.

*steals cookie.. eats... parades about*


But, a good question.. Where is that quote from? I'd like to read or see the source material.

A pysker uses power from the warp yes... But power from the warp is NOT really knowledge, given that all the warp is truly nothing more than a vast sea of sentient beings emotions made manifest.. How would power factor into this?

Maybe they just have really high EQs?

But yes, psykers simply manipulate the relationship between this world and the warp, mainly unconsciously (Hence the need for augmentation) which is why you get Rogue Psykers who can't control their abilities.

I just want to point out that it`s not magic

A psyker is as 'magical' to a normal human being as a normal human being is magical to a tree

He can use things the other can`t even see, smell, hear, understand or acknowledge

Well, until one fries the other :P

Ah, preventing the inevitable, I see. It is indeed not MAGIC, as some people shall refer to it!
