Adeptus Mechanicus
The Adeptus Mechanicus is an orginization in the Imperium of Man responsible for technology, engineering and most of the Imperium's Industrial production, as well as the operation of the Titan Legions. The Adeptus Mechanicus controls thousands of forge worlds (think Coruscant but with factories instead of high rises). The largest forge world of the Adeptus Mechanicus is Mars, on which the most badass weapons ever known to man are made. Common belief holds that they're pants-on-head retarded because they supposedly treat technology like magic. They also tend to hog all the really cool shit for themselves--like Titans and other wonderful stuff--only letting the imperials have it when really, really necessary or if they're threatened personally. They have two armies of their own (what are not anything like the Imperial Guard, as they are mostly composed by badass angry cyborgs and boxy technogrunge robots what are more violent than ED209) and giant, tank-crushing, lobotomized minions. Canon says the reason why they exist is because the Emperor read too many times The Foundation saga, A chant for Leibowitz and watched too many times Tetsuo and Tetsuo II:the body hammer and after beat the crap out of the Dragonvoid and trap him in Mars he had the idea it would be cool have a church of people obsessed with greasy machines in the future instead of scientist and engineers.
