Think about it.
Although the Flayer's names might [i]sound[/i] masculine to us humans, maybe they are female names to Cabal. And maybe the Vanguard are wrong when they call Psions "he's".
Thoughts?
EDIT: Let's add another layer to this discussion. To Cabal even [i]have[/i] genders?
EDIT: Lighting Lord made a good point. Maybe the Cabal are like army ants. Army ants each have a specific purpose, like the big ones with big pincers, or small ones that overwhelm enemies, or ants that secrete a corrosive substance. Maybe Psions are just a subspecies of Cabal?
EDIT: Grimoire says that Psions [u][i][b]may[/b][/i][/u] be a different species. I might be wrong and the Cabal would be female and the Psions male!

the psions are a different species conquered by the Cabal, at bes are second class citizens and at worst they they are slaves, they have the power to communicate telepathically and have the power over machines, though they are inferior to Cabal, Calus originally wanted to free the psions but was killed before he could, now they are currently a part of the Cabal empire unless Caiatl wants something done with them.

See: psion grimoire They're a different species

I think the cabal are like halos covenant, and have other spices in ther empire. Just a thought.

1 ReplyNo I think Psions and the Main cabal are just two of the many species in their empire. Perhaps we'll see more species as the game progresses

Us Cabal do not have sex and gender like humans. I do, however, have the ability to make you suck my Caballs.

3 RepliesMaybe there is no sexual dimorphism (Differences between male and female). Maybe the all look the same and that ant theory is correct. Until we get confirmation that "Hey guys, this one here is a female", we won't really know. All we can do is theorize like we are now. I do like that ant one though. Makes sense. I mean, who says that aliens have to be just like us humans.

10 RepliesSide-question, not trying to threadjack here, but Are the beginnings of their names Titles? For example, Valus Ta'aurc is a big bad superbadass leader guy. Val Aru'un is a strategist. There are lots of others but they all seem to start with Val.

Psions are a separate species from the Cabal. They are just part of their army.

Since the Cabal are Space Romans, I'd say the Psions are a separate species that serve as auxiliaries, much like how the Romans used Numidians, Thracians, etc. to augment their own legions.
-
The grimoire more or less says that the cabal only keep the psions around for their psychic abilities

1 ReplyIn the Roman empire Psions were mercenarys paid to be soldiers. Outlanders from other countries. Not too hard to pu the same image on these Psions.

Nah women aren't that smart

Different species. But they be looking like chicks. Wearing heels and all that.

2 RepliesWhatever psions are we know they are enslaved by the Cabal because of the grimoire card from the warmind's Pov where he says that he knows what it's like to be enslaved by something lesser than itself, while it was listening to the Cabal
-
I heard that all Psions have the last name Jenner in common
-
Psions aren't the same race.

As far as I know, Psions are a client race. They work with the Cabal because of some deal I guess. I am still wondering whether they have genders though.....
