Tigurius is DAH BESHT LIBRAHRIAHN EVAR if you believe Ward's fluff, and to be honest he's definitely one of the best choices a loyalist has as far as psykers go, though there are certainly [[Red Scorpions#Sevrin Loth|a]] [[Mephiston|few]] [[Njal Stormcaller|who]] can compete with him. He's an ML3 psyker with access to Divination, Daemonology, Biomancy, Telekinesis, Telepathy, and Pyromancy. He has the Ultramarine standard ATSKNF and Chapter Tactics and Independent Character and his warlord trait allows him to grant one squad within 12" of him the Rending USR each shooting phase, which is nice. He has a unique rule called "Master of Prescience" which gives him rerolls while rolling for psychic powers and also allows you to reroll reserve rolls for units in the same detachment as Tigurius when he's alive. Gear-wise he has your average librarian's loadout of power armor, a bolt pistol, frag and krak grenades, plus he has a relic psychic hood that allows him to reroll psychic tests and the Rod of Tigurius, a melee weapon with Strength +2 AP4, concussive, force, Master Crafted, and soulblaze. Also worth noting that the Rod of Tigurius is rumored to be the same staff [[Awesome |'''held by Malcador in the Great Crusade''']]. Later revealed to not be the staff when the AdMech finds the real thing elsewhere, [[A Game of Pretend|but we can pretend.]]

Not only is he ML3, he gets rerolls on psychic tests and generating his powers, so not only are you likely to get the powers you want, you're probably going to be able to pull them off. With his rerolls and the hood you're probably going to shut down your enemy's psychic powers. As for drawbacks... He's a bit soft I guess, with his 3+ and 3 wounds (though he can compensate for that with psychic powers and bodyguards). He's not a beast in a challenge, but then that's not what you're taking him for. Tigurius is really good at psychic stuff, and that's why you want him. Enjoy.
