While the leaders of whoever it was who stood up to the original invasion considered how to punish their errant member that member supposedly took upon themselves an even greater sin. They’re said to have made a weapon which could destroy the universe if used unwisely. So dangerous only the insane would consider even making one, much less using it. Breaking even more rules and laws to do so.”

->Perhaps the most dangerous human in the galaxy is an untrained [[PsychicPowers psyker]]. If they are not [[MutantDraftBoard controlled]] or [[ShootTheDog purged]], the erratic and awesome forces they can unwittingly unleash may destroy whole settlements or even worlds. Those [[BlessedWithSuck cursed]] with an incredible level of psychic talent are codified by the Black Ships of the Inquisition as [[PowerLevels Alpha-level]] - the highest category a human psyker can reach. Alpha-level psykers can turn a man inside out with a glance. A mere flick of a wrist can snap a [[HumongousMecha Battle Titan]] in two, or a muttered syllable [[HatePlague turn an army upon itself in a frenzy of bloodlust]]. With such godlike power at their disposal, it is small wonder that Alpha-level psykers are among the most dreaded of foes that the Ordo Hereticus of the Inquisition must face.

->[[VillainProtagonist Danneth]] is eighteen and [[HumanoidAbomination he has the power to eat worlds]]. The government has no choice but to deal with him. At first, the [[SuperpoweredMooks akropolia]] supplement the old forces; they did in the Middle East [[TheShortWar in two weeks]] what the president was stumbling over after twenty years. Traditional police are obsolete. Two akropolia can maintain order in each city. Armies follow. Soldiers, weapons, technology, they all become meaningless. Danneth can render a nuclear reactor inert from halfway across the world. He can boil submarines in the furthest depths of the ocean. He can bring down planes - or cast a spell that causes the sky to swallow them.
