Lukas Chrom was a Tech-Priest of the Adeptus Mechanicus during the Great Crusade.[1]
The Master of Mondus Gamma, one of Mars' largest Forges, Lukas Chrom was a member of Fabricator-General Kelbor-Hal's inner circle and a founding member of the Dark Mechanicum.[1a][1b] Before his treachery, he was a leading expert and producer in Automata and greatly resented the Emperor's ban on Artificial Intelligence.[3a]
Shortly before the Horus Heresy, Chrom constructed an advanced robot known as the Kaban Machine despite the Imperial ban on artificial intelligence.[1c] He was a key anti-Imperial commander during the ensuing Schism of Mars, with his Kaban Machine launching the opening shots of the war by attacking Adept Ipluvien Maximal's reactor at Gigas Fossae.[1d]
Trapped on Traitor-occupied Mars for the duration of the Heresy, Chrom dabbled in much dark warp lore and broke every technological taboo of the Cult Mechanicus to create a new breed of war robots and Daemon Engines. He twice clashed with loyalist raids on Mars, first in the Perditum Incursion where he was badly wounded by Shield Captain Morvae Arcas.[3b] The second clash was the Arca Silentus affair, where he was again forced to flee before Praetor Aster Crohne.[3c]
