* Venusis/Neo from [[NadiaTheSecretOfBlueWater Nadia.]] His robotic body ''looks'' human, but it is fairly obvious from his almost nonexistant expressions and the mechanical noises when he as much as moves his head how blatantly fake it is. He's dependant on a hugeass power cable protruding from his back and it is only one that we see him standing up from his throne. The contrast between that all and his very normal-sounding voice is jarring to behold.

Behind that armor is a horribly crippled, yet still cosmically powerful, draconic body that would nevertheless bleed to death and spill its organs all over the place if it wasn't for those plates.

*** And then of course there is the Emperor. Unfortunately, he can't move about because his life support machine is so massive and complex that it is the size of a small country, and it requires thousands of psykers a ''day'' to be sacrificed to power it. Plus, the Emperor was so horrifically injured when placed in the machine that he is almost entirely incapable of any kind of functioning. The only reason that he is kept alive (or rather, on the very brink of death) is that he is necessary for intragalactic travel and communication.
