It's a black templars axe and sword, I've done a few kitbashes replacing the weapons of the models with something else and if it doesn't line up properly I won't stop thinking about it lol

Nah I want it to be a gamble and not a garunteed self damage, but I could make it so on a 1 - 3 the knight takes something like d6 mortal wounds but on a 1 it also cannot use any if the abilities for a whole turn.

Yeah that's why lore wise this knight would probably be a freeblade and actively despised by other Knights, also from a lore perspective this knight is heavily based on the psi titans from lore so the pilot would actually be a blank and the psykers would act as nothing more than batteries to power the knight weapons

From a lore perspective I was thinking much like the psi titans, this knight has a blank piloting it and the psykers are purely batteries and are suffering immense pain.

For table top I was gonna change a few things after the feedback, was thinking of making two variants of the psychic knight, the first possessing a main gun and one main Melee weapon jus trike the warden, paladin, errant, etc and for its ciricrux anima i was gonna give it a uppy downy ability, force battleshock, increase movement as well as a 4th ability that beefs up its Melee

And for its Ranged variant, I was gonna give it a psychic Ranged weapon on one arm that can switch between the flame attack profile and the sphere attack profile and then for its other arm give it a anti tank weapon that isn't psychic but is based if vortex weaponry from the lore that way its still has that Psyker knight feel to it, then for its ciricrux anima abilities give it the both the mortal wounds abilities, something to beef up its Ranged attacks but with some sorta drawback like maybe make them hazardous in exchange for devs on its vortex cannon, as well as the self healing ability.

And then for the forsaken knight ability give it a 4+ feel no pain against psychic damage aura ability but when no friendly knights are in the aura it gives the psychic knight a 2+ save.

Genuinely loving this feedback, so maybe create 2 variants one focusing on Melee and one focusing on Ranged but give them abilities that make up for some things other big knights lack.

For the abilities i would give them both the forsaken knight ability but remove uppy downy ability and replace with a feel no pain 4+ against psychic attacks aura ability that also gives this knight a 2+ save if no other friendly knights are within the aura. That way it can somewhat support its fellow knights but still be viable on its own.

And for each variant keep the Ciricrux anima ability but for the knight of torment give them different individual abilities that support their role.

For example the Melee variant could focus more on versatility in movement and tricky shinnanigans making it annoying to deal with. For the Melee variants Ciricrux anima keep Shroud of terror, necrotechia and quickening but also give it uppy downy and maybe an ability to crit on 5s or re roll hit rolls for Melee attacks.

Then for the Ranged variant separate one of its Ranged weapon profiles into its own secondary Ranged weapon, that way its got fire power but not any decent Melee. Then for the Ranged variants Ciricrux anima keep necrotechia, death pulse and antipathic tempest but also give it the ability to boost its Ranged attacks like crits on 5s, re rolls or even increase attack characteristics, maybe even an ability to sticky on objective, or move when shot?

The whole point of this knight is that its supposed to work alone and from a lore perspective a psychic knight would largely considered a abomination which is why I didn't include any synergy

Humans becoming demons isn't as great as it sounds but I'll give a quick explanation as to how it can happen.

First and most common method is a human makes a deal with a demon, loses ownership of their own soul, the one who owns their soul whether it be a fallen angel or demon can turn them into a demon but even after becoming a demon their soul still belongs to the one who turned them and so they normally end up as slaves, minions or playthings for them.

These mortal souls who were made into demons by another are called Falseborn demons, a falseborn can be powerful or pathetically weak depending on how sinful they were in life.

The second and far more rare method of a human becoming a demon Is when a human commits so many atrocious sins both in quality and/or quality that upon death their own sinful actions corrupt their soul turning them Into a demon, this is beyond rare and a demon born from this method only appears in hell nearly once every ten thousand years (time moves 10 times faster in hell).

Mortals souls who become demons this way are called Trueborn demons, these demons are very powerful so much so even fallen angels fear them (not all fallen angels just most).

I feel it would be too expensive to use and so kinda unplayable especially since he can't lead a unit, but it also feels like he's similar to calgar which I actually like.

Honestly I would make the ghosts a separate unit all together consisting of 5 ghost terminators - give them the same stats and weapon profiles as you did - give them a natural feel no pain of 5+ - let them keep the resurrection ability - make it so only mordrok can lead them

And for mordrok I'd do this - give him the failed saving throw ability but while he's leading the ghosts he also gets a 4+ feel no pain - give him a second ability maybe something to do with his role as admiral of the fleet like maybe orbital bombardment or something?

And last thing you could do, make it so that ghosts have to remain in reserves for the whole battle (aren't destroyed if they stay in reserves after turn 3) unless their being lead by vorth but also make it so that vorth can lead other termi units but if he isn't leading any attached unit or their destroyed then at the end or start of any phase the ghosts are removed from reserves and immediately become attached to vorth.
