Optus is a rank among the Cabal Military exclusive to Psions. The position it places Psions in the Cabal hierarchy is unknown.

Overview[edit]

Seen almost exclusive to Imperial Cabal members, Optus' (Opti) are Psions with the citizenship of Freeborn that have been given the added benefit of a military ranking.^{[citation needed]} Although how high or low the rank of Optus is currently remains unknown, Optus' are above their rank-and-file compatriots and may be very similar to a Bracus. Many Opti take the form of named commanders, although an unnamed Optus Psion variant also exists.

Another variant, known as the Imperial Optus, assist the Guardians in capturing Hive Lightbearers.

Being made of Ascendancy defectors, the Barant Imperium has at least one Optus under it.^[1]

Known Opti[edit]

Variants[edit]

Trivia[edit]

"Optus" in Latin means "To Choose", showing how Optus' are Chosen Psions worthy of such added benefits and ranking.
In the military of the Roman Empire, the rank of optio was generally second-in-command to a centurion.
