Abilities

Etheric Emergence
In your Movement phase, when this model is set up on the battlefield using the Deep Strike ability, it can perform an etheric emergence. If it does, this model can be set up anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 6" horizontally away from all enemy units, but until the end of the turn, it is not eligible to declare a charge.
Abomination
This model has the Feel No Pain 2+ ability against Psychic Attacks.
Soulless Horror
Once per battle, at the start of any Command phase, this model can use this ability. If it does, each enemy unit within 9" of this model must take a Battle-shock test, subtracting 1 from that test (or subtracting 2 if that unit is a PSYKER).
