Within the Cabal Empire, Psions are second-class citizens at best and slaves at worst. They serve the Cabal as laborers, engineers, and mechanics. Psions have worked as pilots as well in their time of service<ref>'''Game Informer January 2014''', ''page 55''</ref>. Their integral part in the Cabal military is seen through the extent at which they rely on the Psions. Maintenance passages in most of their ships and structures are often too small for Cabal to move through comfortably, and [[Interceptor]]s are designed for use by Psions exclusively. Particularly talented Psions are trained to become [[Psion Flayers]], masters of their incredible power and intellect. The full extent of their abilities is unknown, but they are thought to have been able to alter the orbit of [[Phobos]]. | Within the Cabal Empire, Psions are second-class citizens at best and slaves at worst.

Certain Psions are not born into slavery and are regarded with the title of 'Freeborn'. They are exceptionally rare in Cabal society and are of vastly superior social standing to others of their race, potentially being considered equal to other Cabal. | Certain Psions are not born into slavery and are regarded with the title of 'Freeborn'. They are exceptionally rare in Cabal society and are of vastly superior social standing to others of their race, potentially being considered equal to other Cabal. However, that may have changed as of the death of [[Dominus Ghaul|Ghaul]] or perhaps before, as there have been multiple instances of Psions leading significant detachments of Cabal. | ||
