Great Spirit
Great Spirits are entities of the Hive World Necromunda, that are worshiped by the Ash Waste Nomads.[1]
Description
Most of what is known about them comes from Imperials' interaction with the Tsun'ghar tribe, which is the greatest of the Ash Waste Nomad tribes. According to this information, as well as fragments of recorded data and wasteland legends, each tribe has their own Great Spirit that they worship or are beholden to. Scholars are unsure, however, if these Spirits are some supernatural entities like gods or saints, or merely metaphorical interpretations or personifications of Necromunda itself. Regardless of what they truly are, the Nomads believe the Great Spirits are real and they drive the tribes on their endless treks across the Hive World's Ash Wastes. The entities watch over the Nomads as they endure Necromunda's harsh environment, and each tribe has has a warrior or leader said to embody the Spirit that personally watches over their people.[1]
