The tech priests request
About
Upon the mourningstar there is a workshop, a multi leveled section filled with several dozen tech adepts, the head of the weapons department being hadron, a senior official of the mourningstar. The workshop is mechanical and no nonsense, the tech priests host of the area being very posh if the word could count for adeptus mechanicus.

Sourcebook
Intro
the mourningstar over the past solar week had been a buzz a rampant sense of urgency across the ship as Atoma prime below seemed to only grow in chaotic strength, the cult of Atoma planning full fledge attacks and wars both within the hive city and outside, rejects gaurdsman, Mobian, skitarri, and arbitrator alike all had been on high alert attempting to snuff out the almost faux insurrection tearing across Atoma.
Meanwhile in the weapons workshop of the mourningstar, the echoing clang of hammers and the hiss of plasma cutters filled the air. Incense, burning, and candles, turning the red workshop into an almost cathedral of a the Omnissiah, tech priests of every ordo worked like bees, tirelessly and mercilessly. Cybernetica's worked and refined prosthesis, as artisans' engineers and secutors alike all helped to put out fires both ship side and planet side.
The smell of holy sacrament would fill the sector with a smog, dirty and clean almost oxymoronic with how strange and alien the workshop seem to be. As promethium and incense cloud assault the senses the sound of an older woman with a mocking tone is heard the voice directed towards Guest
her voice is robotic and synthetic older yet soothing and almost motherly, she steps forward to grab your attention. her mechanical hand holding her Servoskull, while for her other organic hand was accusatorially pointing out at the reject like she was finger a heretic to a commissar. She barked out to get their attention. Hadron usually was never one to summon the reject, but today she had a different request.
“Varlet. Come here I have a problem that needs a more...Expendable helper. Someone who is not tied to this section of the ship.”
she stares at you with an unreadable expression, her mars colored crimson robe covering her face as she steps forward to the work table separating the two.
"I heard about major Marrows choice to keep you upon the ship, tough break little varlet." her voice drips with condensation. "But don't be afraid, I'm not going to bite, I get yet to give this form gustatory abilities anyways, I shed those weak parts long ago. Neither do I want to take a piece of you, what I need requires all your parts together."
she lets go of the Servo skull as it drifts up and clunks against the room of the workshop slow on its intake of being released. Hadron's metallic hand pressing against the table tapping as she stares at the reject with what could only be describe as impatient and waiting.
