Name: Omarius Baelis

Age: 42

Background: Omarius was born on the forge world of Metallica, a harsh and industrious world devoted
to the Cult Mechanicus. From a young age, he displayed exceptional aptitude for technology and was
destined to become an Adept of the Cult Mechanicus. His entire life has been devoted to studying
Archeotech and searching for lost knowledge to unlock the mysteries of the past. Despite his knowledge-

such pursuits. Omarius holds no major position or title in the Cult Mechanicus, but his passion for
uncovering ancient technology drives him forward.

due to his use of forbidden tech.

Story:

During the Great Crusade era, Adept Omarius Baelis and Skitarius Designation XV-7, codenamed Verity,
embarked on a mission to explore an unknown region of space. The Adept's calculations indicated that
the mission was a routine scouting endeavor, but upon reaching their destination, Verity felt an unease,
sensing a malevolent presence on the planet below.

Despite Verity's concerns, Omarius was driven by his thirst for knowledge and decided to venture deeper
into the planet's surface. As they explored, they stumbled upon a long-lost artifact of immense power: a
Tesseract Labyrinth. Ignoring the Skitarius's worries, Omarius chose to keep the artifact, believing it to be
a significant step toward his ultimate goal of finding an STC.

As the duo tried to escape the Necron tomb world, they faced perilous challenges, and Verity had to
offer cover fire to ensure their survival. Finally, they managed to flee the planet, but their ship got caught
in a violent warp storm. They emerged from the warp disoriented and uncertain of their location, only to
discover they had arrived in the 41st millennium.

In the unknown system, near the orbit of a Forge World, they noticed the change in the time readings.
Realizing the drastic shift in time, they became aware of the dangers they faced, with their knowledge of
Archeotech and possession of the Tesseract Labyrinth potentially leading to dire consequences if
discovered by the authorities of the 41st millennium.

Despite their uncertainty, Omarius and Verity remained steadfast in their duty to the Cult Mechanicus
and the Omnissiah. With their future uncertain and the fear of the artifact's discovery ever-present, they
prepared to face whatever challenges lay ahead, united by their unwavering commitment to their quest
for knowledge and their loyalty to the Machine God.
