Dark Mechanicum
From Lexicanum
The Dark Mechanicum was a sect of Tech-priest of the Adeptus Mechanicus who pledged loyalty to Warmaster Horus at the end of the Great Crusade.
Horus gained the loyalty of the group after promising them STC technology gained from the worlds of the Auretian Technocracy. In the resulting Schism of Mars, the Dark Mechanicum supported the Warmaster during the start of the Horus Heresy and were present on Istvaan V where they used dark and forbidden knowledge against the Imperial Loyalist forces. 1
In the 41st Millennia, the Dark Mechanicum are still active, utilizing massive daemonically corrupted Titan war machines of the Traitor Titan Legions against the Imperium and producing infernal weapons and Daemon Engines from the world of Xana II.4
