==Ex-Inquisitor Gregor Eisenhorn== Gregor Eisenhorn is perhaps one of the most hated renegades in the Imperium who hasn't officially thrown in their lot with Chaos. Once a respected Inquisitor Eisenhorn fell from grace via small steps making metaphorical and literal deals with devils and dabbling in the darker parts of daemon-lore. Even the Daemon Breakers hate him, he's too friendly with things from the other side for their taste. Eisenhorn had the book thrown at him even harder than Kryptman, Kryptman merely had his Inquisitor status revoked so he couldn't unilaterally Exterminatus whenever he felt necessary and was still considered a useful if unstable asset by the Imperium. Eisenhorn has had his Inquisition status officially revoked and actual wanted posters issues, not that this even slowed him down. The reason for Eisenhorn’s fall was remarkably simple and remarkably subtle. Curiosity. Simply a little bit of curiosity. Surely there is nothing wrong with learning excessive amounts of daemon-lore. The Grey Knights all do and they seem pretty on the ball. And surely it can't be too bad to put all this sorcery into practice in extreme circumstances to prevent something worse, it's not unprecedented. And it's obviously better to have Cherubael bound into a dead cultist than wandering around free doing God knows what, it is the job of the Inquisition to frustrate the forces of Chaos after all. And if Cherubael is bound and hanging around he may as well make himself useful. Nothing wrong with that, it's like watching a wasp land on a nettle. Someone’s going to get stung and it's no great sorrow who. Next thing you know you’re running through the mid-hive jumping from moving train to moving train with a daemon close behind you as your only friend, a stack of stolen forbidden text transcripts in an asbestos back pack with the Arbiters sirens getting closer whilst you mumble through a mantra of dimensional twisting in the Unwords of the Black Sun because the customs inspector at the space port is a retired Space Marine you once knew and he slapped the panic the moment you got off the shuttle. And this is by far not the first time that this has happened. All you can be grateful for is that this time you aren't a Night Lord Neophyte training exercise. It's also worth noting that he is hated by everyone. Chaos hate him because he enslaves daemons to do his will against their own desires and keeps using them to fuck up Chaos cults. The Inquisition hates him because of all the shady shit he did that came to light at his trial in absentia on top of his summoning and binding of daemons. The Daemon Breakers hate him because he's summoning daemons for help rather than banishing and/or killing them. Also he destroyed a book they wanted (the Necroteuch), the only other copy of which is in the Black Library. The eldar hate him because he stinks of Chaos and need no other reason to shoot on sight. But for all that it seems that Eisenhorn is still "loyal" to the Imperium in his own mind. He runs from Imperial forces thrown at him if he can rather than fighting and only intentionally targets Chaotic forces. He is in effect a Chaos Sorcerer albeit one with good intentions. His only saving grace is that he is a lot more trouble to Chaos than the Imperium. He never intended to be this way. He is on this path because he made one well intentioned decision, carefully considered and in isolation one bad choice after another. Now he's nearly 500 years old, has no friends, and is on the run from everybody with Cherubael as his only company.
