Carneg
Carneg was a Magos Explorator who discovered an ancient temple, while doing a survey of the planet Dolumar IV. He reported his findings to Meyloch Severus, the Planetary Governor of Dolumar IV, not knowing that the temple was dedicated to the Chaos Gods; and was the site of a hidden Eldar Webway prison, holding a large Chaos warhost and its leader Tarkh'ax, a Lord of Change.[1]
When Severus visited the temple to study its significance, Tarkh'ax slowly corrupted him by whispering into his mind and filling Severus with visions of the power he could gain from the Daemon, if it was freed from its prison.[1] Shortly afterward, Severus began his path to damnation by having Carneg killed to keep the temple's discovery a secret, though the Governor made sure it looked like an accident, and began his decades long quest to free Tarkh'ax.[1]
