someone was talking about the druhkari in the owlcat discord and it got me wondering, do the druhkari torture other druhkari?

plush mason
#

lol

#

they are literally just the imperium but even more extreme

slate belfry
plush mason
#

oh and will they turn another druhkari into furniture like they do some humans?

misty brook
#

Oh yeah that one time the Drukhari went to Holy Terra and saw the Golden Throne and they were like WTF!!!

arctic talon
#

if they're of a lower class absolutely lol

dense salmon
#

just noticed hive tertium has squat toilets

#

interesting

arctic talon
#

The Druhkari are super fucking ruthless

winter vessel
#

and jackasses

arctic talon
#

that comes with the territory of being ruthless

warm notch
#

Tertium's bathrooms also don't have mirrors at the sink

#

What kind of monstrous society is this???

#

This is absurd

dense salmon
#

squat toilets with no stalls

warm notch
#

They're depraved

dense salmon
#

no door

#

wide open

plush mason
dense salmon
#

the funniest part is a medicae station is right next to the toilets

arctic talon
#

if they are so inclined

#

but Kabalites are like

#

the rich people

#

most of them live very luxurious lives

#

pretty much every Kabalite warrior has a resurrection contract

plush mason
#

afaik the Kabalite warrior in question has fallen from grace

arctic talon
#

Oh

#

then yeah absolutely lol

#

he's fucked

plush mason
#

yeah better to take his chances and help the rogue trader escape. he is dead ether way

soft thunder
#

Hadron, Masozi, Morrow, and Zola are the only mission announcers atm right?

sacred ginkgo
#

Hallowette and Melk do a mission

dense salmon
#

the ascension mission

#

where you nab the crystal thing

soft thunder

know I forgot someone. Wonder if Brahms is gonna get a cameo or be an announcer like Melk/Hallowette w/ the new map update

random python
#

when the psyker touches the end of their staff while venting, are they channeling their peril into the staff ? or are they just doing that as a non lore important animation?

queen laurel
#

Because they can overload with the warp if they don't do it after all

random python
#

I always wondered if the staff was like a dumping conduit for them with the animation they can do with it

tulip brook
#

it's exactly that. staff is another force weapon concentrates and gives shape to warp energy

#

they can store the energy to be used in the future in the weapon so I assume they venting it into the staff. peril is just a numerical value of how close you are to trigger your failsafe boom

#

you are basically running around with a bomb collar

random python
#

is that also what the metal neckplate thing is for psykers

tulip brook
#

as we don't really know what it does, even sm psykers come with a variation of it and it's used to regulate the warp energy

#

I assume psyker popping is also built in function of that

#

or an implant

#

bomb collar just sound cooler than a microchip frying your brain

lapis wadi
#

I thought psyker popping was more of just.. y'know, the warp itself popping your brain

arctic talon
#

Its meant to help bleed away harmful warp energy and protect them

arctic talon
#

or having other horrific effects occur

#

dying is like

#

one of the least awful effects

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

theres also being contorted into a warp portal while you're alive

arctic talon
#

tldr not pleasant

#

you'd want to die normally

hazy pecan
#

dying normally is preferable to becoming something like this for sure

echo vault
#

Pretty easy question but what would be worse being inflicted by chaos corruption or dark eldar haemonculi experiments

hazy pecan
#

dark eldar obviously

arctic talon
#

Chaos corruption generally speaking is way worse

#

Dark Eldar haemonculi experiments tend to not drive you insane

#

funnily enough

#

bcs you for one have gotten the intrest of a haemonculi

echo vault
#

Like is the knowledge of a chaos sorcerer more potent? They're different I mean the two have different goals in their suffering

tulip brook
echo vault
#

I'm thinking more just undivided too not a specific god

tulip brook
#

even the effect is just blue energy popping off, not tentacles doing japanese stuff with your body

echo vault
#

Haemonculi can turn you into a chair tho while hitting all your nerves to feel the sensation of stubbing your toe x 50

arctic talon
#

but the perils of the warp effect

#

is supposed to be the warp exploding out of you

#

in game

#

your screen gets covered with warp tendrils and such before you blow up

#

also the fact its called peril thats building up

#

I'd call it a perils of the warp incident

tulip brook
#

but practically forever is way better than actual literal forever and chaos is like the concept of what they dream of, way beyond practicality and material

#

however horrific they may be, they are still limited to time and their own creativity and tools

arctic talon
#

if a haemonculi gets creative with you

#

it'll be weird

median marsh
#

Chaos Spawn usually don't live long and generally are too deranged to actually understand whats happening (there is however one chaos spawn that managed to regain it's sanity)

tulip brook
#

chaos corruption isn't a standard thing either. depending on the context and gods, it'll hit you differently

broken zenith
#

RoC D100 mutation tables were cool

arctic talon
#

Ironically there’s some humans who rise to a decent rank in a durhkari kabal

#

Because they get turned into some living weapon

#

By a haemonculi coven lol

#

There’s a talos pain engine that’s the main overseer for slaves for one of the major kabals

#

Okay so how am I mean to pronounce T'au if it's not just "Tau" T(uh)-ow?
Clearly that apostrophe is there for a reason, even if we don't bother to add it half the time.

#

Speaking of pronounciation though, in the above video "Xi" is prounced like "chi" rather than the "kcsh-ee" said there

#

Okay so I decided to find out myself. It's still pronounced Tau. No glottal stop.
It's basically just so GW can copywrite the name.

tulip brook
#

tau with african tongue clicking, gl

#

jk

lapis wadi
#

In-universe we seem to use apostrophes where really we should use hyphens.
Gue'la is literally "human'soldier", so it should be Gue-la in english, "human-soldier"

tulip brook
#

meh, in universe orks don't have cockney accent too

lapis wadi
#

Given how the tau like to make compound words, I wonder if they have any of those hugely long words that German can sometimes create

#

Imperial linguist squints at captured Tau display, glaring a single word... They sigh, and transcribes it into high gothic with a full 20 apostrophes

tulip brook
#

they probably won't

#

mantis it is

lapis wadi
#

I do not think you understand what linguists do

#

Unless this particular person is trying to make an easy to understand translation guide

tulip brook
#

I don't. most likely imperium doesn't either

lapis wadi
#

Curators are members of the Administratum, responsible for maintaining the ancient records of the Imperium, especially those made of written ledgers. They must be able to understand a variety of tongues and scripts as the oldest records are often written in languages which are no longer in use. They are also in ways supposed to be historians as ...

#

The Imperium is deeply backwards but they still know how to research languages.

#

After all, you can't tap into xeno transmissions if you can't understand them.
And being able to read "reactor core" or "armory" on signage is a useful skill for military matters

#

...also also Rogue Traders want to scam them

tulip brook
#

this isn't in the context of transcribing "shielded'room'that'houses'extra'ammunition"

lapis wadi
#

You need to have all the pieces in your control before you start simplifying

tulip brook
#

they would record it once for clarity and go on with "hereby it'll be called armory from now on"

exotic jungle
#

The Imperium loses track of planets due to an admin cock up all the time

winged jacinth
#

Thats because they track a billion planets on vellum scrolls not because they cant read alien languages

green loom

Finally managed to watch the cutscene

#

God damn I love the little meeting room with everyone

Well, they track them on multiple methods simultainously at that isthe teue issue. Comparing data from a slate, scroll, drive, servitor and whatever esle it mess.

I want to watch from the game but I'm stuck in the office for next 4 hours

#

Hey look at it like this, I literally won't be able to play KEKW_ogryn

storm jungle
#

lmao

green loom
#

Since the game is too big now

storm jungle
green loom
#

And my PC may or may not have stuff slots for more SSDs

#

So I can kiss goodbye to the Game until I buy a new PC KEKW_ogryn

median marsh
#

Aww

celest dome
#

External SSD ?

green loom
#

Isn't it a horrible idea to run games off external drives

green loom
median marsh
celest dome
#

Are external SSDs good for gaming?

External SSDs are a fantastic way of storing large game files and expanding the storage capacity on your computer or console by up to 4TBs. With ever-improving transfer speeds, you can quickly load multiple games straight from the drive.

median marsh
#

Ah fuck it, I'm gona look at the cutscene

hasty coral
#

Damn a very good cutscene

#

Definitely feel that the surge in playerbase has revitalized the devs

#

This really does feel like a new era for Darktide

green loom
#

It feels like we're finally out of the damage control/setup period

#

They just needed time to cook fr

median marsh
#

That was very fukin good

green loom
#

The Patient Gamer wins again!!

median marsh
#

Its just how fatshark always done things, I wish it wasn't but sigh

crisp heath
#

Holy shit I was right, the dude who took Wyrmwood soul was the moabien leader!!!

median marsh
#

I commend them for sticking with it though and doing what they do, making the game better

green loom
#

The voice is different no?

crisp heath
#

Listen to the voice on wyrmwoods last vox, and listen to that, they're the same

median marsh
#

I'm fairly sure Wolfer isn't the guy who murdered Wyrmwood

green loom
#

It might be one of the twins

median marsh
#

He speaks in a way different intonation

crisp heath
#

I'm almost certain he is now

green loom
#

I'll listen to it when I get back

hasty coral
#

So the main military force has returned

green loom
#

If you're wrong I will judge you mercilessly

hasty coral
#

I wonder which faction is next?

storm jungle
#

I love how they re-designed Wolfer

#

because his main design was uh

#

super basic

#

lmao

hasty coral
#

What did he look like before?

median marsh
#

Yeah I double checked, the voiced are different

#

Wolfer had a simpler design, now he's a proper looking lord

green loom
#

Also he doesn't look uncomfortable now

hasty coral
#

Fatshark is really cooking now

#

I’m glad

green loom
#

Also the fkn twins

crisp heath
#

I can't for whatever reason upload the old vox... I have it saved to my phone

median marsh
#

The plot thickens

green loom
#

We might get our first proper boss fight next month guys

crisp heath
#

But I'm telling you they sound the same

median marsh
#

I can link the video if you desire

#

They don't really

hasty coral
#

And a 2 boss fight?

crisp heath
#

I wanted to put them side by side so people could compare

hasty coral
#

Exciting

median marsh
green loom
#

Lol that's not the same at all

hasty coral
#

Yeah that’s not the same at all

median marsh
#

The voice I dubbed preacher 2 speaks In a slower cadence and is deeper

green loom
#

That's Jonathan Keeble doing the voice of Heldayne from fkn Ghosts

hasty coral
#

Vox one has a clear accent

median marsh
#

Wolfer is way more agressive

storm jungle
#

this is deffo a dreg

green loom
#

Wolfer is way more gruff

storm jungle
#

it has that raspy old man voice

green loom
crisp heath
#

The only difference is it isn't over vox

green loom
#

With the horse faced inquisitor

hasty coral
#

Ederius? Initiate mocking protocol.

green loom
#

It's the exact same voice

hasty coral
#

It’s not the same

#

The vox has a clear accent

crisp heath
#

My opinion vs yours

#

Pretty sure nobody knows for sure

green loom
#

The vox one sounds like the death guard champion in the BFG2 campaign

hasty coral
crisp heath
#

But to me they sound the same

median marsh
#

I really like wolfers progression

#

We first see him as a prisoner, without most his stuff

celest dome
median marsh
#

Then he arrives planetside

#

And now he is kitted out

#

He doesn't look like a normal captain tho, he has a unique helmet

#

This

green loom
#

He looks straight out of Shadow of Mordor

median marsh
#

This is your brain on chaos

Nah, it's his helm, the one unique thing he had until recently

#

Oh and ETERNAL DAMNATION

median marsh
#

My man leveled up and is now wearing an epic gear set

hasty coral
#

Easy choice imo

#

Just like join chaos lel

storm jungle
#

hes the uh

#

only guy in the game with the Vraks Enforcer mask

green loom
#

Dude

storm jungle
#

They probably realised he really doesnt look too threatening and more like a generic-mook

green loom
#

Imagine if he fought on Vraks

storm jungle
green loom
#

And he kept one of those helmets as a souvenir

hasty coral
#

I mean he probably did

#

What are the chances?

#

Probably not impossible

green loom
#

Nothing's impossible

median marsh
#

He did talk about how he was abandoned on the field once

green loom
#

But the mask is a clear reference

median marsh
#

"Abandoned in the field? Yes. the same thing happened to me."

median marsh
# storm jungle

Huh, this is technically the second time a design from vraks shows up

#

(mutant, despite not being an Ogryn, looks pretty close to Ogryn Berserker)

green loom
#

Ok so so so

#

So

#

So

#

Sooo

storm jungle
#

Yeah its probably because the Vraks line was one of the rare instances where 40k did proper traitor designs

median marsh
green loom
#

Any thoughts on how likely we are to get more cosmetics in part 2?

#

I mean 🤷‍♂️ would be dope

green loom
#

I literally just want the vet chest lol

median marsh
#

Tfw I still have many questions on Wolfer

#

We know now that he is in fact a big figure

#

But there are many other captains alongside him

green loom
#

He's probably a Typhus figure

#

As in he was the main influence behind them turning traitor

#

Or to nurgle worship

crisp heath
#

I think this^ is likely correct.

celest dome
#

But he still a Scab

median marsh
#

My guess is he was a the catalyst used by actual corruptor

#

You know, the one through whom the word spread along scabs

crisp heath
#

Idk. All I know is the voice sounds similar between vox 12 and the new released stuff

#

Could have been any number of things serving under or alongside him that actually yank the soul. But I want to say he's the one that's been talking

storm jungle
#

Aside from the fact that the Moebians turned to Nurgle during the Fringe War and Trojan Horse'd themselves onto Atoma

crisp heath
#

This

storm jungle
#

Yeee because as Abnett said they also think they are liberating these people lol

median marsh
#

It's visible in scab designs that they're not as far "gone" as dregs

#

At least to me

median marsh
#

Dregs use their cryptic speech for example

crisp heath
#

Dregs are literal "cod zombies" rotted out monsters with no sense of self left

#

Scabs are human cultists

#

Or do I have that backwards...?

median marsh
#

A bit yeah

crisp heath
#

... suddenly not sure of myself lol

median marsh
#

Dregs are the yellow clad cultists

storm jungle
median marsh
#

Poxwalkers are the mindless monsters you think of

crisp heath
#

Lol then I had it backwards lolol

storm jungle
#

hence shit like "VUTASH VARG, NURGLE!"

median marsh
#

It's fine ' v' also that's ultra cool

#

You can decipher the writing heretics left too

There's like, an alphabet somewhere from waaaaay back

An arena can be Slaaneshi in nature I'd say, if the violence within is more of a performance than just murder

green loom
#

Yes I understand this, everyone can have arenas, you're not wrong
But in themeing it's typically more Khorne esque because it'd be blood sports

crisp heath
#

@verbal path because everything in the imperium is repurposed. Hell, even Space Marine armour was for mining I think

celest dome
#

But Arena can also be shows of skills

#

Which does fit for Slaanesh's wibe

storm jungle
#

the terminator suits

crisp heath
#

Was it those?

storm jungle

who were made FROM reactor-repair suits from DaOT

green loom

Even then it's arguably that's it's repurposed

yeee its re-purposed

crisp heath
#

I just remembered something about it vaguely

storm jungle
#

like the main "basics" of it

#

and not the exact copy

green loom
#

Yeah but it's more like saying like

#

A tank is just a repurposed tractor

Or something

crisp heath

In a sense they are lol

yeah thats a Leman Russ re-purposed to be a tractor

green loom
#

It's real too, from the MTG collab

storm jungle
#

yeee

crisp heath
#

Just looked it up. This is just like a sweater for the gun. It keeps the weather out and the heat in. This limits the effect of the environment on the gun – keeping the barrel straighter. Some tanks such as the Chieftain use a canvas insulated cover while others (Leopard) cover the insultation with a metal sleeve.

#

That's cool to know

verbal path
#

Tank sweater!

winged jacinth
#

The only reason i dont see the imperium leaving old tanks for retrofitting into equipment is that they're obsessed with their 1000 year old relic tanks

That Tau game

@short steeple a four man squad going through one after the other and the whole horde all by themselves? Yeah no dog

#

Copium only gets you so far. Our guys would not be what they are in the game

short steeple
#

Lore accurately we died at the start on the prisoner ship

#

But sadly we need a game to play

celest dome
#

Introducing Sentinels wouldn't break anything futher than gameplay already does

crisp heath
#

Is what I'm saying fun? No. I admit that. That's why the game isn't lore accurate.

#

And why people shouldn't be super anal about fighting other factions

nocturne crest
#

How about an original improvised vehicle?

short steeple
#

Rusty ass scout sentinel isn't exactly a space marine

#

If we fought like, a single eldar guardian, we die on the spot

something dopey like this, but with 40k symbols.

#

Or the Kildozer.

crisp heath
#

Like, idk. People get this main player mentality and think our guys are God's, when we are NOT stormtroopers like someone else said. We are the bullet sponges in front of them. We should barely survive half them missions we go on. And almost all the auric ones would be unimaginable

celest dome
#

Us killing Sentinel is pretty much not lore accurate, but it's not lore breaking

#

On the other hand, us destroying a Baneblade, a Knight or a GUO would be lore breaking and not lore accurate

crisp heath
#

But that's acceptable

celest dome
#

So why are you complaining about Sentinels ?

crisp heath
#

I hadn't been

#

?

#

Just talking on the game as a whole

#

I'm sorry if you took it that way

hasty coral
#

I mean chaos resistance is lore iffy

#

You can argue for or against it with named characters

normal light
#

What is the topic?

crisp heath
#

Chaos resistance is literally lore breaking lol

#

You don't come back from Chaos corruption lol

#

That doesn't "cure"

#

It's a permanent mental stain

hasty coral
#

I mean not immediately exploding from it

short steeple
#

Darktide 2 starts with executing your old characters for heresy

hasty coral
#

Like some random named ogryn having pretty neat chaos resistance?

#

I can live with that

#

And if it’s too much of an issue blame GW

ripe mango

Key(explosive)

hasty coral
#

Because they made like all Daemons just “op, I kill everyone in 10 miles lol”

crisp heath
#

You wanna know what I'm Hella curious to see depicted?

#

A psycher falling to corruption and turning into a warp portal

hasty coral

Literally just implodes

Brahms is gen Z obviously

She watched Tik40k

I'm hella curious what that looks like

crisp heath
hasty coral
#

10 bucks he literally like collapses in on himself

#

And boom

#

Portal

nocturne crest
#

Imagine if the emperor is boosting our rejects to protect them from corruption.

crisp heath
#

I'm pretty sure it's in lore they live and feel it... not worth betting

hasty coral
#

No he like turns into a flesh ball explodes and then portal

#

That’s my bet

crisp heath
#

I just want to see it depicted

#

Ahhh I gotcha

nocturne crest
#

Like that time the Emperor was in a kid and saved Gulliman.

crisp heath
hasty coral
#

💀

crisp heath
#

Lol woah there

#

Get your mind out the gutter

hasty coral
crisp heath
#

Spiritually my guy

#

Like catholic priests

hasty coral
#

Because some of the comments he makes

#

Make no sense for a Daemon

#

He still fully hates chaos

#

And it’s not really imperium hating

hasty coral
crisp heath
#

Took a sec lol

hasty coral
#

Like the psyker expresses that his beloved is more “Disappointed in the imperium” rather than “IMPERIUM BAD”

crisp heath
#

🤷‍♂️

#

Just know that's what's been said

hasty coral
#

There isn’t much of an inkling that their beloved is even slightly chaos aligned, besides the weird dreams they have

nocturne crest
#

I see.

hasty coral
#

But even then the psyker says they know the voice in the dream is not the real beloved

#

Or at least believes so

nocturne crest
#

INB4 their beloved is actually Ferrus Manus's ghost.

hasty coral
#

It’s almost certainly not the emperor

#

But it could still be a imperium or neutrally aligned warp entity no?

crisp heath
#

The psycher apparently talks to the Emperor and calls him 'beloved'. The veracity of that, or whether it's just a figment in his head? Who knows. But he believes it is the Emperor at the very least

hasty coral
#

Idk it’s strange

nocturne crest
crisp heath
#

It's pretty much Emperor or nobody or daemon lol

hasty coral
#

Because again it does almost ZERO Daemon like stuff

crisp heath
#

It does though

#

There are moment where he has to calm it down

#

And it does hurt him sometimes, if we follow the dialogue

#

I think the best answer is all of the above

hasty coral
#

It’s more that it doesn’t really seem chaos aligned as it isn’t super anti imperium

#

I feel it has to be psychosis

#

Reflects the psyker’s beliefs and warp madness

arctic talon
#

It could absolutely be a daemon

#

It most likely is a daemon

hasty coral
#

It’s a pretty damn subtle one then

crisp heath
#

He's a broken minded fellow, who hears whispers from voices in the void he believes to be the Emperor. It's as simple as that. Whether it is sometimes, or sometimes it's something else doesn't really matter

hasty coral
#

I have yet to hear any major “My beloved says the imperium is bad” sort of lines

crisp heath
#

Does that matter?

#

Like fuck...

hasty coral
#

Doesn’t it?

crisp heath
#

No

hasty coral
#

I have yet to hear a demon that offers just “criticism” of the imperium

crisp heath
#

You've yet to hear his beloved at all

green loom
#

The beloved is probably just the psyker going insane

nocturne crest
#

So do the goliath trucks imply that Mobiean 6th managed to get all the forklift certified people to join them?

green loom
#

Probably looked too much Terra's way

hasty coral
#

From what the psyker says it’s weirdly nothing super corrupting at least as far as we know

#

Again it feels more like a reflection of the psyker than anything else

celest dome
#

In the far future of the 41st millenium, nobody is Forklift certified

crisp heath
#

From what the psycher says we know barely fuck all. I'm done with this it's getting annoying

green loom
#

Imo it's very possible he just had a peak at the Astronomicon or something and it imprinted shit on him

crisp heath
#

Dude just wants to be right

hasty coral
#

Relax it’s a lore channel

#

It’s here for discussion

short steeple
#

The pyskers beloved is you

The player

hasty coral
#

I didn’t say I was right I said it doesn’t seem to me

They can hear you yelling at the screen

#

My beloved asks why the guns cost so much money

No no that’s the crazy scientist one

@arctic talon What are the current alignments of the warp?

arctic talon
#

As in

#

like god power level?

green loom
#

I think they're vibing with left atm

hasty coral
arctic talon
#

define faction allegiance

#

like what makes up a majority of it??

#

or like

hasty coral
#

Chaos vs imperium vs orks or whatever

arctic talon
#

The Warp is like

#

all chaos

#

it is Chaos's realm

hasty coral
#

Then how would becoming a psychic race benefit humanity?

arctic talon
#

because it lets you fight the warp better

hasty coral
green loom
#

They can be if they want to be

arctic talon
#

Daemons can be very subtle

green loom
#

See: the watcher in the rain

hasty coral
#

But I guess the Daemonhost is still imperium aligned while being on the brink of possession

crisp heath
#

So... I think what he wants is like a power ranking by faction within and without the warp. In the Warp, at this time, Khorne has the strongest enfluence, followed by Nurgle, then T and Slanesh. Out side the warp, you have the Necron and tyrnids tied first, Eldar orc second, human third, tau fourth

hasty coral
#

No I meant how much influence each faction has in the warp

green loom
#

Oh
None

hasty coral
#

Like encountering a warp entity, chance it’s chaos I assume is 99%

#

And like 1% something else

green loom
#

Mostly because the warp just

hasty coral
#

Probably even lower

crisp heath
#

Eldar and Humans have the most influence with their souls and psychers

green loom
#

Is anathma to most living things

crisp heath
#

Everyone else is fairly minimal

hasty coral
arctic talon
#

There's like

#

only chaotic warp entities

#

its like 99.999999999999999999999999999%

#

chaos

#

most non god aligned warp entities also fall into the chaos catagory

hasty coral
#

So yeah it’s either psychosis or a subtle daemon

crisp heath
#

No like, it truly is anathema to life. The chaos gods have to control the warp to let they're demons and what not exist if I'm not mistaken. Otherwise the warp would be too strong for them as well

arctic talon
#

prolly a tzeentch daemon lol

hasty coral
#

Wait are there imperium aligned Daemons then? Or could there be theoretically?

arctic talon
#

Well

#

the Legion of the damned

#

are absolutely daemons

hasty coral
#

Oh ok that is canon

arctic talon
#

they get banished like daemons

hasty coral
#

I didn’t know if it was

arctic talon
#

cause vox's to freak out like daemons

#

and are purely warp entities like daemons

crisp heath
#

There is only one known naturally formed neutral/good chaos entity named at this time and its the Tau Goddess

snow fern
#

Living Saints Daemons?

arctic talon

also their guns ignore everything

Like daemon weapons

they might not be called daemons

what the fuck it is

but it is strong enough to drag tau ships out of the warp

crisp heath
#

It is a warp entity though

arctic talon
#

yeah

arctic talon

that much is clear

#

it might just be tzeentch in a trench coat

hasty coral

Or has warp influence

arctic talon

but we don't know
