40K RUMORS: Librarian Dread?

Hi everybody, here is the latest chatter we hear regarding that “Librarian Dreadnought” mentioned in the latest White Dwarf.  He sounds like quite an interesting character:

Absolutus
Furioso Dreadnought (contradictory reports of Venerable status)
5 Attacks, Heavy Flamer, Multi-melta
(contradictory reports of Force Weapon CCWs)
Tormented: Constantly plagued by the attentions of daemons scratching at his mind, Absolutus can only fire weapons if there is a friendly unit within 6″ to focus his attentions.
Unleashed by Battle: Absolutus grants fleet to all Furioso dreadnoughts within 6″ (including himself)
There is no word of any transport options
(contradictory reports of limited access to psychic powers)

~Remember that caveats apply, as we are still far out, but I can already envision a horde of Furiosos bearing down on a hapless foe…  Ahh the Blood Angels are sounding cooler by the day, good thing I have an entire Battle Company of them 🙂 Have at it guys

UPDATE: Here’s a more recent take on this fellow.  Some of this stuff is changing by the hour…
