The '''Virenus Gambit''' is an event in the [[Inquisition]] that was instigated by [[Inquisitor]] [[Dahwrin]] and involves the [[Assassin]] [[Asaid Virenus]].{{InquisitionPortal}}
The prelude to this scandal came about over the [[Thorian]] belief in the Divine Avatar where some of their members believe that this aspect may never come about naturally but instead had to be brought about through artificial means. One of those that believed in this means of bringing about a return of the [[Emperor]]'s soul ''Virenus Gambit''' was Inquisitor Dahwrin who, in the latter years of the 41st millennium, had gained a reputation for being an expert event in such matters as he had examined in depth all documentation regarding the [[PrimarchInquisition]]s and the instigated by [[Space MarineInquisitor]]s. Few were, however, aware of of these studies which were conducted during his time in the [[Ordo Sicarius]]. His time there led to him studying the shapeshifters of the [[Callidus TempleDahwrin]] and whilst he did his usual deuties of guarding their misure, he began to be intrigued on the properties of involved the temples shape altering drug known as [[PolymorphineAssassin]]. In time, he discovered an isolated Callidus training outpost on the second moon of [[OsirianAsaid Virenus]] despite the fact that few knew the locations of the hidden Assassin temples.
During his expedition == History ==The prelude to this scandal came about over the outpost, he took with him [[Magos]] Biologis [[Hexun LurdThorian]] belief in the Divine Avatar (a resurrection of the [[Adeptus MechanicusEmperor]] who was 's soul inside a new vessel). Some Thorians believed that this might never come about naturally but instead had to be part brought about through artificial means. One of a secret experiment overseen by those who so believed was Inquisitor Dahwrin. After reaching the facilitywho, Dahwrin declared an Inquisitorial quarantinee which cut off in the temple from outside interference allowing Magos Lurd to begin experiments on polymorphine whilst using the trainees as test subjects. The aim latter years of the project was to create [[41st millennium]], had gained a variant of the drug later known as hyperpolymorphine and use it as a means of creating a robust vessel reputation for the Emperor's resurrectionbeing an expert in such matters. As part of the process He had examined, the experimental drug was tested on psychically suitable subjects with a number of trial and errors made leading to horrors formed by overin-stimulation of hyperpolymorphine with depth, all documentation regarding the lucky ones dying from the changes wracked on their bodies. After several months [[Primarch]]s and nearly two dozen test subjects, one of the test subjects managed to survive a particular hybrid variant of polymorphine[[Space Marine]]s.
Unknown to DahwringHowever, Magos Lurd had his own plans for the drug and had no intention of handing over the results few were aware of these studies, which were conducted during his study to time in the Inquisition[[Ordo Sicarius]]. This His time there led to him summoning a loyal armed force studying the shapeshifters of Adeptus Mechanicus which broke through the quarantinee and attempted to remove the successful subject in order to bring them to the nearest [[ForgeworldCallidus Temple]] for closer examination and whilst he did his usual duties of guarding their misuse, he began to be intrigued by the properties of the temple's shape-altering drug known as [[TechpriestPolymorphine]]s. As was to be expected In time, Inquisitor Dahwrin struck back and fighting broke out between the two factions within the temple. This led to a three way battle when the Master he discovered an isolated Callidus attacked both sides after she became disturbed by training outpost on the Inquisitor's practices and further alarmed by the Adeptus Mechanicus learning the location second moon of her temple. In the resultant chaos[[Osirian]], despite the test subject Asaid Virenus escaped through fact that few knew the use locations of her polymorphine abilities allowing her to escape all three factions and remains unaccounted forthe hidden Assassin temples.
During his expedition to the outpost, he took with him [[Magos Biologis]] [[Hexun Lurd]] of the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]], who was to be part of a secret experiment overseen by Dahwrin. After reaching the facility, Dahwrin declared an Inquisitorial quarantine which cut off the temple from outside interference, allowing Magos Lurd to begin experiments on polymorphine whilst using the trainees as test subjects. The aim of the project was to create a variant of the drug later known as hyperpolymorphine and use it as a means of creating a robust vessel for the Emperor's resurrection. As part of the process, the experimental drug was tested on [[psychically]] suitable subjects with a number of trials and errors leading to horrors formed by over-stimulation of hyperpolymorphine. The lucky test subjects died from the changes wracked on their bodies. After several months and nearly two dozen test subjects, one of the test subjects managed to survive a particular hybrid variant of polymorphine. Unknown to Dahwring, Magos Lurd had his own plans for the drug and had no intention of handing over the results of his study to the [[Inquisition]]. This led to him summoning a loyal armed force of Mechanicus soldiers, which broke through the quarantine and attempted to remove the successful subject, [[Asaid Virenus]], in order to bring her to the nearest [[Forgeworld]] for closer examination by the [[Techpriest]]s. As was to be expected, Inquisitor Dahwrin struck back and fighting broke out between the two factions within the temple. This led to a three-way battle when the Master Callidus attacked both sides after she became disturbed by the Inquisitor's practices and further alarmed at the Adeptus Mechanicus learning the location of her temple. In the resultant chaos, Virenus escaped all three factions through the use of her polymorphine abilities, and remains unaccounted for. In the aftermath of the incident, [[Lord Inquisitor]] [[Antigonus Balorodin]] led an investigation which saw Dahwrin savagely censured for his actions and led to Magos Lurd being executed for his traitorous behaviour. Inquisitor Lord Antigonus later led a search that is hunting for for the fugitive assassin Virenus.<sup>{{Fn|1</sup>}}
