It is only recorded as being encountered once by the [[Imperium]], during the Tyranid invasion of [[Devlan]], an Imperial [[mining world]] on the [[Eastern Fringe]].<sup>1</sup> It tore into a starport compound to get to its defenders, killing twenty four men before being driven away. Each time it returned it slaughtered more humans before retreating back into the tunnel, devouring the rendered human remains. Eventually a search and destroy team was sent into the tunnels, only to meet their doom at the scythes of the Red Terror.
 
What became of the Red Terror after Devlan is unknown. Though one ship fleeing from Devlan made an automated landing at [[Adri's Hope]] ominously dark and silent. The ship was investigated by the planet's inhabitants and found to be a blood-drenched abattoir. A Tyranid creature was suspected to have gotten aboard, though nothing was found within the ship. Three weeks later, Adri's Hope itself had also become a blood-soaked ruin. It is unclear if this best of Devlan is the Red Terror.<sup>1: p.22</sup>
