There’s a debate on whether Ogryns count as being “mutants”, but they’re generally not regarded as such. Partly because their unusual traits came about because of natural generational evolution, but mostly because they’re useful and generally pretty loyal. The imperium can tolerate a little bit of mutation and diversity as long as you make yourself useful.

Unless you want to go to an actual warp witch to warp travel, you're stuck with the navigator houses, who grew stinking rich because of this. Jokaero are xenos, but the Inquisition uses their services-who is going to tell an inquisitor what she can or can't do? The Adeptus Mechanicus' beliefs are arguably heretical, and so are the Space Marines', but you're not going to p*ss them off if you know what's good for you.

On the ogryn's size and strength: in Fantasy Flight's RPG rules, an ogryn's typical strength is the same as a Space Marine without their power armour or bodyglove. A Space Marine is still much faster, and obviously much more intelligent, but if the two were to arm wrestle while off-duty the average Ogryn has a good chance at winning.

This is incorrect. Basic Ogryns are stronger than basic space marines with their armor. They're definitely slower and less intelligent but they're so strong that it's been stated the only one who could handle the charonites during the HH was Horace himself.

@oblivionfan345Tony Жыл бұрын

Incorrect, Ogryn are much stronger than a basic marine. If they arm wrestled the marine would lose handedly every time. Marines come out on top because Ogryn are very, very, very stupid. So much so that they need a dangerous surgery to make "Bone 'eds" which can follow basic orders and the other Ogryn just follow.

It's worth noting that despite having lesser higher reasoning skills than baseline humans, Ogryns are just as social and gregarious as humans. The part of their brain that handles social interactions and empathy seems to be just as well developed as the rest of humanity. Or perhaps more, considering what a callous dystopia the Imperium is in general.

I remember from rogue trader days that due to Ogryns having such simple thinking process that were nearly impossible to be corrupted by chaos. Most if not all Ogryns who fight for Chaos were tricked into thinking the ones giving orders were still talking to the emperor, until it was too late for them. Strange to see the lore has now changed with that.

So, minor correction to your lore: the 'men of stone' are most likely the distant ancestors of the Kin of the Leagues of Votann -- genetically engineered demi-humans with a low Warp presence meant to serve, along with their AI and robotic counterparts, as humanity's mining and exploration system in the galactic deep core. The term "men of stone" is probably a linguistic corruption over the eras, with the original term probably being closer to "mining clones".
