Editing Bronze Malifects

The Bronze Malifects are a strange product of tech-heresy that engulfed the Josian Reach in the Calixis Sector during the latter half of the 8th century in M41.[1]

History
The Malifects were products of the Augmetic Scholae, the tech adepts responsible for building as well as maintaining cybernetic devices. These machines became Warp-tainted in many diverse locations due to the actions of Heretics who had built malformed machine altars as well as conducted corruptions of the Adeptus Mechanicus rituals. The madness and mind-rust of those involved led to the creation of the Bronze Malifects - ugly arrangements of bronze augmetic infused with a murderous spirit from the Warp.[1]

When inactive, the Malifect appears to be a large heap of war- damaged augmetic arms as well as limbs, making it appear as if a dead Guardsmen had been thrown into the pile. Upon a closer inspection of the machine, the arrangement can appear as the deliberate work of a madman. The autolimbs are plasma-welded together to such a level that they appear as one large device which is capable of both articulation and movement. The machine parts are evident in the design with a stump to a wrist, legs side by side, an arm that projects from a thigh as well as data conduits along with power lines which weave through the whole structure that link small potentia coils as well as scavenged flexor-devices. The sigils of the heretic along with nonsensical machine scripts are also inscribed upon most of the crucial linkages
