The Enslavers are entities that inhabit the Immaterium and are capable of taking control of the mind of a psychic individual in the physical universe. They are also known as Psyrens, Krell, Dominators or Puppeteers. Enslavers drift with the currents of the Immaterium, and are drawn to the psychic emanations of other creatures who remain in realspace. Once a suitable psyker host is located, the Enslavers form a parasitic mental bond, which over the course of a few days will turn the unfortunate, mind-controlled host into a living Warp portal, so that more Enslavers can enter the material universe and find new hosts. The Enslavers had their most profound impact on the galaxy in a catastrophic event known as the Enslaver Plague that occurred some 60 million standard years before the present.

| - The Enslavers are entities that inhabit the Immaterium and are capable of taking control of the mind of a psychic individual in the physical universe. They are also known as Psyrens, Krell, Dominators or Puppeteers. Enslavers drift with the currents of the Immaterium, and are drawn to the psychic emanations of other creatures who remain in realspace. Once a suitable psyker host is located, the Enslavers form a parasitic mental bond, which over the course of a few days will turn the unfortunate, mind-controlled host into a living Warp portal, so that more Enslavers can enter the material universe and find new hosts. The Enslavers had their most profound impact on the galaxy in a catastrophic event known as the Enslaver Plague that occurred some 60 million standard years before the present. As a result of the tactics employed in the War in Heaven that was fought between the Old Ones and their psychic servant races and the Necrons, the Immaterium became greatly destabilised and a rush of Enslavers into the physical universe through the living gateways provided by the minds of the Eldar and the other psychic servant species of the Old Ones occurred. The Old Ones were ultimately wiped out or fled the Milky Way Galaxy as the Enslavers assaulted their strongholds. Intelligent life in the galaxy almost become extinct as a result of these assaults and the "red harvests" of the Necrons. This included all the intelligent living beings that the C'tan had once used as food, so the C'tan went into hibernation, along with their Necron armies, on the Necron Tomb Worlds to wait for the galaxy to become repopulated with large populations of newly-evolved intelligent life. The Inquisition's Ordo Malleus and Ordo Xenos both have an interest in combating Enslavers due to their origins in the Warp and their existence as an intelligent alien species. Numerous Enslavers were encountered by Inquisition forces in the Scintilla System in the Calixis Sector in 260.993.M41 and subsequently destroyed. Further evidence reveals that the creatures were embedded within a Renegade psyker smuggling ring headed by the most powerful criminal organisations of the Calixis Sector, most notably the Faxlignae. The Enslavers are also believed to be the potential threat related to the Dark Pattern that is unfolding within the Jericho Reach. The Necron Overlord Trazyn the Infinite who is a keeper of rare artefacts is known to hold the ossified husk of an Enslaver amongst his relics. By the time of the Age of the Imperium, the origins of these creatures are largely unknown to Mankind and remain a complete mystery to the Imperium. They were known by a variety of other names in different parts of the galaxy such as Krell, Psyrens, Dominators and Puppeteers. Descriptions of these creatures are rare and fragmentary but data had been gathered on their appearance as well as feeding habits.
