Inquisitor Lord Solomon Lok, believed slain on Beta Anphelion IV in 850.M41
Solomon Lok, veteran of the Chincare Hrud infestation, was the Ordo Xenos Inquisitor charged with investigating the sudden loss of contact from a research facility on Beta Anphelion IV in 850.M41. His retinue consisted of a servo skull, Major Durra of the 99th Elysian regiment 'D' Company, Tech-Priest Magos Biologis Arthon, Autosavant Wassily, who kept a log of the Anphelion incident to the end, and Astropath Zarneck, who transmitted the log to Lord Varius, Lok's superior.
History
Lok, the Elysian Drop Troops 99th 'D' Detachment (led by Major Durra), a detachment of the Cadian 226th, an Adeptus Mechanicus Biologis Exploritas force headed by Magos Biologis Arthon (seconded from forge world Gryphonne IV) and a task force of the Red Scorpions chapter (led by Carab Culln) went into orbit above the clouded moon. The Imperial task force soon learned the horrible truth; the Mechanicus Tech-priests on Beta Anphelion IV had been conducting biological research upon captured sub-species of Tyranids. Their containment of the savage xenos had ultimately failed and the Tyranids had escaped into the wild, rapidly increased their numbers and then wiped out the small population of the Imperial research station. Solomon Lok's task force now faced a similar overwhelming population of Tyranids. After a fierce battle on Beta Anphelion IV, the Red Scorpions received orders to withdraw from the hopeless situation, but they received orders to evacuate themselves, and only themselves. The transport requisitioned for the mission refused all of Lok's requests, stranding Lok and the small force of survivors on the moon as the Tyranids closed in. In a last stand, Lok succeeded in slaying a Hierophant Bio-Titan, only to see two more stride out of the ammonia fog of Beta Anphelion. Lok was able to transmit a record of his last days from Beta Anphelion IV to his fellow Inquisitors in the Ordo Xenos, and his final fate is unknown though he is presumed dead.
