{{DarkEldarPortalDrukhariPortal}}The '''Cronos''' is a [[Dark Eldar]] [[Image:CronosEngine of Pain]].jpg|rightWhile broadly similar to other [[Engines of Pain]] such as the [[Talos Pain Engine|thumb|300px|Cronos miniature (5th Edition)Talos]], Cronos engines are far more exotic and extradentary machines{{Fn|1}}

The '''Cronos''' is a ==Overview==[[Dark EldarImage:CronosArt.jpg|thumb|right|220px|{{PAGENAME}}]] [[Engine of Pain]]. They The Cronos Engines are semi-sentient, part organic and part mechanical monsters that slowly drift along on anti-gravitic motors. Created by the [[Haemonculi]] through a strange blend of alchemy and sciencewhich produces a feedblock loop of negative energy{{Fn|2}}, the Cronos drains away not only the physical constituents of its victims but also their life essence - what little is left of its unfortunate victim is a pathetic shrivelled shriveled husk which quickly collapses to little more than dust.{{Fn|1}} Much like [[Talos Pain Engine]]s they are often used as torture devices, but put on a spectacle that Haemonculus creators take great delight in witnessing.{{Fn|2}}

Some Cronos are further modified by their creators to bear other soul-draining weapons, such as a [[Spirit Vortex]] or [[Spirit Probe]]. Regardless of the method used, the stolen vitality of the victim is then magnified within the machine itself, creating an energy field that rejuvenates nearby allies.{{Fn|2}} ==Images==[[Image:Cronos.jpg|thumb|center|220px|Cronos miniature (5th Edition)]] ==See Alsoalso==
