One of the 15 Hermetic Arts, Corpus is the form of human bodies. Corpus magic affects dead bodies and the bodies of magical or faerie creatures that look human, as well as those of living humans. It governs the intricate interactions that occur in those bodies with souls, as well as those that once had souls.

Corpus contains large numbers of Hereteks in its ranks, as well as Xenos mercenaries.

As well as this, their experimentation and integration of Orokin and Warframe technology have allowed them to create highly dangerous robotic creatures such as Alad V's Zanuka proxy, which can easily capture the unwary Tenno.

| - A wraith's Corpus is his equivalent of a body, comprised of a material termed plasm. In its default state, a Corpus resembles the body of the wraith at the time he died, often marked with whatever wounds led to his death as well as additional Deathmarks. The corpus is highly malleable, however, and via the Moliate Arcanos, can be resculpted into nearly any form imaginable. That said, once changed, Corpora generally doesn't change back, and there are effects which can permanently mar a Corpus - some forms of damage are permanent, certain items embedded in the Corpus (such as living chains) permanently occupy Corpus until removed, and markings from them are often permanent and unmaskable.

- More technologically advanced than the Grineer, the Corpus crews and snipers employ many of the same attrition and ambush tactics of the Grineer; however, they supplement these with automated 'security proxies' known as MOAs and Ospreys. As well as this, their experimentation and integration of Orokin and Warframe technology have allowed them to create highly dangerous robotic creatures such as Alad V's Zanuka proxy, which can easily capture the unwary Tenno. MOAs are bipedal turrets carrying either rapidly firing auto-lasers or high-power railguns. Rather than taking cover, which would be impractical given the in-line mounting of their weapons, these screeching killers will simply close the distance, continuously laying out a barrage of fire whilst letting their shields take the brunt of the beating. Fortunately, their personal defense shielding is relatively fragile, as is their physical frame. Ospreys, on the other hand, are flying proxies that serve primarily as a support role. They can lay mines, or launch shield-draining leeches. They can even hover over groups of Corpus crew and MOAs, protecting them all with a layer of rapidly regenerating shielding that can double the effectiveness of Corpus shields. The Corpus also have stationary turrets activated by ceiling-mounted cameras, which are the bane of fleet-footed Tenno the system over, as they also activate shield-draining lasers that knock players to the ground.
