Archmagos Sojourner Wakes (Deceased)

-Previous Archmagos of the Asterion Mechanicus

-Fixation on Xenotechnology; his cognomen, Wakes, indicates his dedication to the search for and understanding of Asterii technology.

-Had been scheduled to soon to depart on a pilgrimage to Eskutchax, the sector's primary forge world and manufactorum of las weaponry; sentiments strongly suggest that he will there be assigned the role of Fabricator General.

-Severe mental degradation caused the Archmagos to exhibit erratic and violent behaviors, culminating in the necessity of his execution. It is my duty, as a Wakes, to continue his research. To continue his crusade.

-Heavy Encryption-

-Initial contact involved efforts to sway him to endorse Magos Biologis Kolabite 62-Ø.

-Is searching for the records of Anvephone Traquiel to continue his research into the Xenotechnology of the Cinquefoils; believed them to be stored somewhere on Asterion, but outside the Hive. We have since confirmed the location to be Fort Orpheon, collected the records, and traded them for additional knowledge of the Asterii. He has also promoted me to Magos Logis, and given me permission to use the cognomen "Wakes," which I have chosen to accept.

-His investigations into the death and research of Anvephone Traquiel prompted him to forcibly enter the mind of Logis Eizen to learn details of the event, and likely of the Nemesis Device. This action cause the Techsorcist code wall containing the entity VIIR to rupture, allowing him to infect and influence the Archmagos into both forgetting the entire affair, and later to approve the assignment of relic light power armor to Logis Eizen.

-Prior contact with the scrap code associated with VIIR has caused insanity to overtake other tech priests. This is the same fate that befell the Archmagos, who ultimately succumbed to intense degradation of his mind and functionality.

-Before his death, the Archmagos spoke to his "Master," as though he were present; it might be worth learning who that individual is. Additionally, I suspect that Wakes or his Master may also have had contact with King Quinque.
