Hadron provides artisan services to the warband such as refitting auric operatives' wargear, crafting bespoke devices like vox-hackers,{{Fn|1c}} as well as overseeing servo-skull operations and various data transfers during missions. She also oversees the vox systems of the Warband and often listens in the various conversations aboard the ''[[Mourningstar]]''.{{Fn|1d}} [[Interrogator]] [[Iven Rannick|Rannick]] remarks that she probably has more listening devices on the [[Rogue Trader]]'s ship than even he himself does.{{Fn|1f}}
Hadron states she is 392.1736 Terran cycles old, having been angry for most of them. She is also "''fluent in all one hundred and one [[binharic]] cants of the eighty-ninth discipline.''"{{Fn|1b}} Some among the warband would describe her as "cranky and obsessive".{{Fn|4}}
==Moebian Steel==
Hadron would be contacted by an anonymous informant from deep within Tertium, designated as "[[Swagger]]". The informant offered up the location of one of [[Saint]] [[Messelina]]'s ancient [[Machinaria Gloriana]]. These ancient, long-forgotten facilities are said to each hold unique marvels that aided in Messelina's wars across the Moebian Domain some millennia ago.{{Fn|3}}
The location of Atelium Foundryplex Omega V, also known as [[Clandestium Gloriana]], is one such facility that Swagger located. Holding [[archaeotech]] able to create Moebian Steel, this was of great interest to Hadron.{{Fn|2}}A strike team would be sent to meet the mysterious informant and fight off heretics also made aware of the facility as the Warband makes their initial entry into the facility.{{Fn|1g}} Hadron would later visit the Clandestium Gloriana in person. The strike team protecting her was dropped off by the [[Valkyrie]] pilot Flight Lieutenant [[Borovitch]]. This was a subsequent strike team was different than the prior team that made contact with Swagger. Hadron's escort consisted of [[Naibert]], [[Veedra]], and [[Dronica]]. As Hadron inspected the facility, Naibert would be on overwatch with his [[longlas]]. He was also tasked by Interrogator Rannick to spy on Hadron, recording her actions with a little [[pict]] unit attached to his scope, provided by the Interrogator and returned to him post-mission.{{Fn|4}}
Hadron would continue attempting to unravel these secrets of the "Rite of Steel". With the expertise of [[Enginseer]] [[Kayex-8]], she has been able to facilitate her experiments using [[Metalfab 36]] in attempts to recreate of production process Moebian Steel.{{Fn|1h}}
