Summary[]

A void-born staunch Techpriest of the rank of Mech-Wright from the Adeptus Mechanicus. He was drawn into the Mechanicus when a Techpriest's ship stopped at the orbital maintenance platform on which he worked. Played by John, it seems that he will be a difficult character to get along with, and his agoraphobia may become an issue in the future.

Key Events[]

Origins[]

He was born off world, on an orbital maintenance platform. Its sole purpose being the repair of small to medium sized starships, from Rogue Traders to Cargo Ships. Engelbart was drafted into the technical staff of the platform at an early age due to his small stature, being a child. Quite skilled with machinery, he was brought into the Mechanicus when he was spotted by a Techpriest on a passing exploratory ship.

Before he joined the Inquisition, he argued with the head of the orbital maintenance platform who tried to stop him. Upon joining the Inquisition, his Emperor's Tarot was read by a scholar Imperian. The result was 'Know the Mutant, Kill the Mutant', which increased his perception.

He met Inquisitor Hadrax Ishmael Ignacio Jacobim IV when the Inquisitor cleaned up a mess left when Engelbart's group was massacred against a group of heretics. The Inquisitor found him hiding and gave him his place in the Inquisition.

Trivia[]

  • Quite the reserved man, having spent most of his life in solitude, he is more interested in machines than in people. He is not easy to get along with.
  • He wishes to become fully machine, ascending his flesh.
  • He dislikes large open spaces, on account of his agoraphobia, and screwdrivers.
  • He would sacrifice the entire team for the Inquisition and consider it as doing a favour to liberate them from their flesh.
  • Would choose to blow apart a hatch rather than insult its machine spirit.

Notable Equipment Chronology[]

Engelbart got an Utility Mechadendrite installed (at the Mechanicus Spire).

Notable Feats and Kills[]

  • Saving the entire party from the mutant as the sole team member who was not incapacitated.
