A sub-species of the regular Genestealer Familiars. Alchemicus Familiars are beings made specifically for the Genestealer equivalent of a mad scientist called the [[Biophagus]]. Essentially this cooky little guy with the goggles carry around its master's concoction of gene-edited liquids to forcibly turn unwilling 'volunteers' into sleeper agents and servants for the Genestealer Cult. Although seeing as how most Familiars lack eyes, it is unknown why this Familiar requires goggles in the first place.

The creation of these Familiars should be very similar to their more common brethren, which is basically the condense psychic energy being coerced into a physical being of the materium. However, it is unknown if the Biophagus himself is a powerful psyker or it is a result of some much added teamwork. It could also be that it is nothing more than a gift to the Biophagus from either the Patriarch or Magus.

Crunchwise, the Alchemicus Familiars are primarily a synergy unit with no actual combat capabilities. It's just there to keep its master happy and convenient; a lot like the [[Watchers in the Dark]] honestly. The Alchemicus Familiars allows you to roll 2D3 on the Genomic Enhancement and pick the result. It’s only once per battle but that can help add some consistency to the roll and really make that one unit of Aberrants perfect for the job you need them to tackle.

Essentially speaking, the Igor to the Biophagus's Dr Frankenstein.
