There's no way the kid is that strong.
Mainly because I'm pretty sure a Blank that powerful would affect even their parents, and would have been reallllyyyy obvious to everyone else.

Could be a Sensei, that's the only thing I can think of off the top of my head that would justify that kind of expenditure without also being very obvious in nature, but I wouldn't have expected one of those to be born to a pair of Blanks, so it seems unlikely.
We shall just have to wait and see.
Unlikely, a Blank that powerful would have scourged the planet of every soul just with its presence.
could be a perpetual blank maybe?
though I'm not sure the Imperium even really know about them, or care.

Not necessarily, Malcador somehow survived infancy and didn't drown Terra in Daemons before he learned control, could be there's a ramp up period of time for that kind of power.
If Malcador was Alpha grade from birth I doubt an infant's body could survive, trained Beta grade psykers already suffer physical harm from their power.
So the child would likely be born a powerful Blank but take time to escalate to the nightmarishly powerful levels an Omega would represent.

Yeah, but that's a huge iffy since Big E was likely involved. So we don't know.
The problem I have with the kid being Omega Level Blank is...
How would you even know about them? The Kid being an omega-minus blank would completely blind everything to it in the warp no?
Maybe, although I was under the impression that they didn't meet until the Sigilites were running around stealing crap to preserve history and culture whilst Earth was tearing itself to pieces during the Age of Strife.
I figure an Omega Blank is the sort of thing that sends ripples in the Warp and therefore through time as well.
I don't think you could divine the Omega themselves but you could divine the effects and destruction such an existence would produce.
Like a Black Hole, you can't see it but you can see what it does to everything else around it.
Oh, Serrita you don't understand, do you?
You not being affected by a blank isn't because of Tide, it's because you're one of the few people in 40K who still retains their humanity.

Isn't that sort of begging the question?
From my understanding, Blanks have no connection to the Warp, and actively interfere with the connections of those who do, depending on the strength of their "blankness".
It's not a matter of retaining "humanity" or not (unless you're arguing that those who aren't connected to the Warp are the most human); if Serrita - as a Sister of Battle - had any form of psychic power or connection to the Warp, then Solomon's presence should be painful to her.
But it isn't.

Nah im sure if the blank was affecting her as it should she should be anywhere between instinctive fear, excruciating pain up to just straight up dying

You know, one underappreciated thing in this chapter.
Gratis, Culexus, bane of the warp, soul eater, absolute nightmare for psyker and daemons...
Was making sandwiches for the family while contemplating how shit this mission is being.

Sweetheart why would a soul crusher hurt you when your soul is in the garden?
Meaning that she still retains her humanity.
Keep in mind that in 40K, everyone is connected to the warp and, by definition, to each other on some level. This is how emotions work: empathy, sympathy, and so on.
By definition, blanks have zero connection to the warp and, in some cases, actively repel it. This means that the warp connection that allows things like empathy and sympathy to work doesn't work.
Blanks are typically viewed as repulsive and disgusting with people screaming at them and in some cases actively trying to hurt them.
The fact that she's capable of showing empathy towards him despite everything means that she still has something that billions of people have lost.

It could also be that the blank resistance is due to them already being connected via tide, and having access to his shared metaphysical space. Its already been established people share experiences through it, so why would a blank essentially harm itself?
Huh, would not expect Tide to be okay with letting Gratis's superiors taking the kid, though chances are I'm reading it wrong and Tide's gonna give the would be kidnappers hell rattler than hand Cass and her unborn child to the Imperium on a silver plater.
And that but about the Tide worship.........Tide's cooked now, if he had any hope of beating the Godhood allegations they just went out the window.

I think the angle is that Tide's realm isn't a warp realm. Anyone who connects with/in range of him aren't interacting with the warp anymore. So the blank effects don't spread to people around them. Everyone Altered is innately immune to blank influence now.
It remains to be seen if the Altered are still affected by Chaos Symbols.
If that were the case then shouldn't the other infected do the same thing?

I think this are speculating, that because there are people connected to the warp that are worshipping Tide then that may give rise to a warp being that looks and may act like him based on the combined perceptions of those doing the worshipping. This is not unfounded as a similar thing happened to the TAU with said god being the avatar of the their "Greater Good." And it did happen to the Eldar, but the jury is still out if the case with the TAU was real or a deamon in disguise.

On the whole Tau greater good thing.
I hope its a genuine deity and not just another chaos bullshit.
We need more warp entities outside of daemons, daemons, and even more daemons.
The eldar gods and GorkMork helps, but not nearly enough.

Tide probably has one because something resembling him in the warp is busy helping him out.. considering the level of devotion he was alreday receiving before freeing this planet..

Isn't Tide technically the physical embodiment of the Greater Good?
I mean technically he already has.
