====Scalies====
:''see main article: [[Scalies]]''
Essentially what you get when an [[Ogryn]] suffers mutation. Some mutations may stabilise within populations and create an entirely new form.

Scalies are so named due to their thick reptilian-like skin which grants them a built-in 5+ armour save and they also cause ''Fear.'' They are particularly massive, immensely strong (S5/T4/W2) and have the unique ability to regenerate from almost any debilitating injury and will re-grow lost limbs if given enough time.

However, Scalies are so obviously divergent from baseline humans that it is unlikely that they would be tolerated by any Imperial citizen. Furthermore, their voiceboxes have also mutated to the degree that they can no longer communicate in human languages and so their intentions and origins are almost impossible to determine. It is suspected that they live in hidden tribes in only the most polluted locations of the hive where no human can travel.

Despite all of their physical enhancements, they are dumb as door-posts and are completely incapable of command, above and beyond their inability to talk, so if the gang-leader dies, they are never counted as eligible candidates to replace him.
