| A prominent figure in the [[Leagues of Votann]], the Grimnyr are a rare breed of Kin created from Cloneskeins that allow them to channel the powers of the Warp.

| Early in their history the Kin figured out how to dim their souls to make sure that certain [[Khorne|rambunctious,]] [[Nurgle|chummy,]] [[Tzeentch|nerdy,]] [[Slaanesh|and artistic]] sorts would have a tough time getting their mitts onto all that [[Dark Age of Technology]] goodness they had kicking around. This had the knock-on effect of shooting their psychic potential in the foot in a manner very similar to the [[Tau|space commies]], which was a problem since the [[Votann]] themselves have a lot of their data stored behind "empyric" locks that require warp-fuckery to access. So, in a great bout of [[Just As Planned|common sense]], the Votann devised a Cloneskein for psykers so that the Leagues would always have some psychic might kicking around, but in a more controlled and focused manner compared to [[Black Ships|rounding up anyone with a slightly weird mannerism to cart them off to a lifetime of misery]] [[Astronomican|followed by an agonizing death to become fuel for a psychic lighthouse.]]

| The Grimnyr are something of priests for the Kin, which is weird because of how [[Imperial Truth|secular and rational]] the Kin tend to be otherwise. Grimnyr commune with the Votann to determine what course their people should take or to access data-stores that only the psychically attuned can. In much the same way as the [[Living Ancestor|Living Ancestors]] of the Squats, Grimnyr are depicted as being a bunch of old fucks with huge beards that will snap your neck from across the street if you even think about stepping on their lawn. Each League also has a single "Lord Grimnyr" who acts as the [[Lord of the Rings|Mouth of Sauron]] for their Votann, acting as its eyes, ears, and voice within the League and on the battlefield.
