The Embyr are orders of warriors found among the Leagues of Votann who have sworn an oath to defend the artificial wombs of their Kindred, its so-called "crucibles," where all new generations of Kin are cloned.
The Embyr are among the few Kin like the Grimnyr who are cloned possessing psychoactive cloneskeins, and are thus capable of making use of barrier-tech devices that allow them to access and manipulate the psychic enrgies of the Immaterium.
These devices come to life only at these psychoactive Kin's touch, emitting a soft thrum of power and glimmering with cold witchlight. It is through the careful use of barrier-tech devices like these that the Grimnyr and the Embyr manipulate the energies of the Warp to produce manifestations similar to those conjured into realspace by true psykers without facing the same risk of insanity, loss of control of their powers or Daemonic possession.
