Trantor (Magos)
Trantor is a Magos of the Adeptus Mechanicus, who was charged with studying a captured Necron Warscythe.[1]
During the experiments on the weapon the Magos noticed that it began giving off energy pulses, which were theorized to be similar to a distress signal. Fearing a Necron reprisal on the location where the weapon was being held, Trantor recommended the Warscythe be moved to the Forge World of Pentos - which had the resources both to conduct a more useful investigation, and would be capable of preventing the Necron from reclaiming the weapon. Failing that, Trantor urged that the Warscythe should be allowed to fall into the hands of the Ork warlords of the planet Okaral, who no doubt would try to use the weapon. It was Trantor's hope that the Necrons would be drawn to the weapon and hopefully wipe out the threat the Orks posed to the Imperium.[1]
