'''Lichtenstein''' is a renowned [[Radical]] [[Istvaanian]] [[Inquisitor]].{{Fn|2c}} Having since been declared '''[[Excommunicate Traitoris]]''', he is currently being actively hunted by one of the most renowned [[Witch Hunter]]s of the Imperium, [[Tyrus]].{{Fn|1}}
===History===
Lichtenstein has a single-minded obsession with the artifact known as the [[Liber Heresius]] that freed the [[Daemon Prince]] [[Phara'gueottla]] from its prison on [[Karis Cephalon]]. Since then, his fate has been inextricably tied with that of Tyrus, the Daemon, and the ex-[[Daemonhost]] known as [[Kessel]]. These three clashed on Karis over the manifestation of the Daemon Prince on the world of [[Paganus Reach]] and again at [[Cephalon]] Spaceport where Lichtenstein managed to break Kessel free from Tyrus' custody. In return, Kessel gave Lichtenstein safe passage to [[Equinox]], a world where, under the false name of '''Thravian Flast''', he searches tirelessly for the true location of the Liber Heresius.{{Fn|1}}
At the world of [[Karis Cephalon]], where he was looking for the device called the [[the Angel]], did he come into conflict with Inquisitor [[Kessel]] that was also looking for the Angel, but for other reasons.{{Fn|3}}
