Malum Pyron

From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Jump to: navigation, search

Malum Pyron is an Inquisitor of the Ordo Xenos, whose chequered past, of being missing for months on end and insubordination, has caused his peers to suspect him of Radicalism. Not helping Pyron's cause, are the constant rumours that he has embraced both using Xenos weapons and even employing Xenos as agents. Regardless of what his detractors believe, the countless worlds he has saved from Xenos cannot be contested; neither can the great massacre he was responsible for on Pharaday. It was because of these successes that when the Forge World Glomus fell to an Ork Waaagh!, he was chosen by his Ordo along with Inquisitor Ferax Lomar to determine what Imperium world, the Orks would target next.[1]

However, even as the Imperial strike force they accompanied landed upon Glomus to liberate the Forge World, Pyron and Lomar's differing stances caused a conflict between them. The suspected Radical refused to work with the Puritan Lomar, who felt the same, and with the promise of promotion, for the one who discovered what world the Orks would target next, the Inquisitors also refused to accept one another's help. Even now as the Imperial strike force struggles to both liberate the world and prevent the Waaagh! from departing, so the Inquisitor's can achieve their goal, Pyron and Lomar are now both behind the Orks' battle lines with their retinues; each working separately to determine where the Waaagh! will strike next.[1]
