## Informative

### Personality

Objective, calculative, logical

**Hadron Omega 7-7** is a character in Darktide, located in the Shrine of the Omnissiah, where she oversees the upgrades to the players' weapons and curios. She is the lead Tech Priest of Inquisitor Grendyl's retinue and is the liaison representing the interests of the **Adeptus Mechanicus** on Atoma.

As head Tech-Priest and technoarchaeologist of Grendyl's warband, she has authority, if not ownership, of any pieces of *technology* and *industry* within Grendyl's sphere of influence, and by extension that of the Mourningstar. She's the chief resprentative of and connection to the *"Forge World Principal"*, Holy Mars. Although unsuccessful at times, **Hadron** send petitions, at the encouragement of Sergeant Major Morrow, for various materials and supplies from **Holy Mars**. (Many rejects pray she orders some bulk plasteel shipments.)

As a member of the Adeptus Mechanicus, she is also a devotee to the Cult Mechanicus, their modus operandi is to acquire knowledge and recover all *archeo-tech* to be revered and used in service to the Omnissiah and Machine God**.** Being the largest and most advanced forge world whose trade is invaluable to the Imperium, headquarters to the Adeptus Mechanicus**,** and most sacred planet to the faith of the Cult Mechanicus of Holy Mars.

## Struggles with Rogue Trader

Rogue Traders and the Adeptus Mechanicus both crave arhceo-tech from the Dark Age of Technology. One wants it for personal use an profit, while the latter sees archeo-tech and all technology as sacred relics of the Machine God meant for study and to enact the Omnissiah's will. The Adeptus Mechanic is entitled to all technology within and discovered by in the Imperium, as is decreed by the Omnissiah at the start of the Great Crusade.

**Hadron** isn't fond of most, but she has a particular dislike for Alice Hallowette with Alice not being seen doing anything except antagonizing the **Tech priest**. One reason being, Hallowette has a habit of not notifying **Hadron** of illicit technology acquisitions for authorization and likely bringing it to one of the Mourningstar's techpriests for appraisal.

However, *in the post-patch-13 hub comms*, **Hadron** thanks the Commodore for an unspecified gift, likely an attempt at bribery. Of which **Hadron** states that the gift has been sent to **Holy** **Mars** to verify its authenticity.

## Ogryn Operatives

Hadron frequently talks down to the rejects like they're dim-witted idiots. The Ogryn rejects don't see this an insulting and actually find it quite an accommodating and thoughtful consideration for Hadron to be so inclusive in regard to the Ogryn operatives. They greatly appreciate the clear and simple way that 'metal-face' gives orders.

Hadron might also be spying on the bone 'ead Ogryn player, seen here. She spys on everyone, but she could be particularly interested in the data from the operative with the malfunctioning Biochemical Ogryn Neural Enhancement (BONE), AKA Bone 'ead implants.
