The '''Ordo Chronos''',{{Fn|3}} sometimes rendered '''Ordo Chronus''',{{Fn|5a}} are an [[Inquisition#Ordo_MinorisOrdo Minoris|Ordo Minoris]] of the [[Inquisition]] that combat and prevent anomalies in time due to the use of [[Warp travel]],{{Fn|3}} hunting down those considered chronologically improbable and erasing them.{{Fn|5a}}
The Ordo was established to study the anomalous passage of time during interstellar travel through the [[warp]]. This is because of the fact that time works differently within the empyrean; in rare circumstances, vessels can arrive at their destination much later than intended - for example taking centuries to arrive whilst only months have passed onboard the vessel while within the warp. Tales of such dreadful fates are common knowledge amongst void travellers and accepted as one of the risks of warp travel. In extremely rare circumstances vessels may even arrive back into realspace at a time before they actually set out.{{Fn|3}}
