Benedict Draconis
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Benedict Draconis was a famed Explorator from the world of Burr.[1]
During his explorations of the Tomb World of Phall, Draconis came under the control of Mindshackle Scarabs of the Necron Overlord Janzikh. Upon his return to Burr, the constructs burst from Draconis' brain and infected the rest of the planet's leadership, allowing Burr to quickly fall to the Necrons.[1]
Trivia
Benedict's name is likely a reference to the famous Colonial general during the American Revolutionary, Benedict Arnold, who is known in the United States today as a traitorous figure.
