Loxias was a Techmarine of the Ultramarines Legion, active during the Great Crusade.[1a]

He was assigned to the Legion's 22nd Chapter during the Battle of Thoas, piloting Praxis, the command Rhino of the 22nd's Chapter Master, Eleon Iasus.[1a] At one point in the battle, the 22nd were fighting through a network of pre-Imperial human ruins against the orks that infested Thoas. While trying to bring the heavier firepower of his company's tanks to bear, Captain Sirras accidentally triggered a tunnel collapse which buried Praxis beneath tons of rubble, resulting in Loxias being slowly crushed to death before it could be extricated.[1b]
