Mystic

By the Emperor, I am being molested by Daemons!

Mystics are a very specific type of Psyker that are renown for their immense willpower despite their lack of official training from the Adeptus Astra Telepathica.

A very small number of humans have any psychic potential, fewer still are strong willed enough to keep their sanity as the Chaos powers try to take over their minds. These few humans are unfortunate enough to be chosen by the Inquisition for their ability to sense the presence of daemons before they materialize from the warp into real-space. Often accompanying Inquisitors that lack any psychic abilities of their own, they can also serve as advisors, psychic shields or even a decoy as the daemons are attracted to the psychic mind of the Mystic.

Of course the Mystic is competing with the likes of Astropaths, Primaris Psykers and the like, so don't expect to see too much of these elusive fellows anytime soon. At best their advisory role and psychic shielding may provide a defensive role to the pure lightning rape of the Primaris Psyker and the communications expert of an Astropath. Unfortunately their high-quality daemon chow so plenty of wards are needed to protect these guys.

Rakel is a pretty famous Mystic who is known for being buddies with Inquisitor Amberley Vail.
