** ''TabletopGame/DarkHeresy'': Obliviates, described in ''Creatures Anathema'', are humans whose souls have been destroyed by the use of invasive neural augmentation. The result is an empty husk, still capable of movement and basic life functions but lacking any complex thought or inner life. Rogue tech-priests are known to create these things as servants and attack dogs, since their lack of thought or emotion means that they are easily directed through implants wired into their nervous systems, and as terror weapons, since the thought of total soul-oblivion is a reliable way of sowing terror among Imperial populations. To psykers, obliviates have the same psychic signature as most common forms of servitors; this has rather disturbing implications about servitor construction, which the Inquisition makes sure to keep quiet.
