Clamavus

![]() |
A Clamavus is what happens when Lorgar becomes a Genestealer Cultist. We wish we were joking. But they are essentially the Tyranid's answer to the Imperium's Ministorum Priest or Chaos' Dark Apostles.
Basically, if the Ecclesiarch is 40k's Catholic Space Pope and the Dark Apostles are 40k's Jehovah's Witnesses from Hell, than the Clamavus is 40k's Grimdark Scientologists. Seriously they are both zealots believing in a cosmic alien space god whose souls would join together once they die, it's only fitting for such a comparison.
Overview
A Clamavus is a type of Genestealer Hybrid that broadcasts the emancipatory creed of the Cult far and wide. They use a scrambler array to thwart the battleplans of the Cult's enemies, all while inspiring their Cult with booming oratory amplified by their suit's integrated proclamator hailer. Because of this, the Clamavus' fellow Cult members see them as heroes and the spreaders of truth.
It seems that because of their function, they only make themselves publicly known during a Genestealer uprising, because Emprah knows how the average Imperial citizen is gonna react to some bald dude screaming about the coming of a four-armed dinosaur locust rather than the Inquisition approved golden corpse god.
