	When the Heresy began, he jumped on the team [[Horus]] bandwagon as means to expand his own pocket empire. Despite doing pretty much his own thing regardless of the [[Sons of Horus]] captain at [[Port Maw]], he was still a key player in the war for the Coronid Deeps, fighting constantly against the Agathon [[Solar Auxilia]] and the loyalist [[Imperial Knight\|Knight Houses]] of the region. He also had an obsession with turning people into [[servitors]] for his armies, [[grimdark\|once ordering that an entire ''planet'' should have its population converted into Servitors]], then servitorizing the tech-priestess in charge when it wasn't done fast enough; when people tried to revolt, he crushed the uprising in the space of a few days.

	The Battle of Numinal (that place mentioned above) was both Draykavac's most infamous act of on-screen brutality and his biggest goof-up. Draykavac spreading his troops across the world meant that he had no quick response when around 40k [[Solar Auxilia]] landed, having used a mix of sleight-of-hand and a loyalist [[Rogue Trader]] vessel to break through his orbital blockade; in the two hours he needed to launch a counter attack, they'd [[Imperial Fists\|fortified their LZ to hall and back]]. The first force he sent to break them was [[Anal Circumference\|promptly sent back in several small sandwich bags]] despite him remote-controlling entire divisions, forcing a very annoyed Draykavac to take the field himself with his Knights and Battle-Automata in tow.

Draykavac commanded the Mechanicum's military forces on Cyclothrathe, a barely liveable rock that was constantly ravaged by violent electromagnetic storms and largely isolated from the [[Imperium]] and even the Mechanicum at large. These guys were fucking hardcore, with a reputation for being incredible fighters and excessive brutality; they were also known for being isolationist and arrogant, shunning even other Mechanicum Forge Worlds like their neighbours Z'pandex and Mezoa.

			The archmagos was known for three things: doing just about anything to gain knowledge and further his understanding, running the Cyclothrathine [[Imperial Knight\|Knight House]] like a slave driver, and being an unforgiving asshole. Seriously, Draykavac pretty much butchered any member of the House who refused to side with Cyclothrathe, then basically enslaved them by holding their Thrones Mechanicum hostage while keeping the Knights themselves locked up unless it was time to fight.

The first force he sent to break them was [[Anal Circumference\|promptly sent back in several small sandwich bags]] despite him remote-controlling entire divisions, forcing a very annoyed Draykavac to take the field himself with his Knights and Battle-Automata in tow.

			Draykavac thought that by using his Knights and battlebots, he'd be able to at least force them into a stalemate until reinforcements could get there. Unfortunately for him, [[Not as Planned\|he'd been tricked hard]] - the guy running the show on the resistance's side had fought beside the Mechanicum before, and knew full well how they tended to rely on their <s>computers</s> logic-engines. The result was that Draykavac hit their lines and penetrated deep, only to find it was [[Steel_Rain\|raining fucking Knights]] as the Loyalist House Hermetika dropped right on his flanks. Draykavac himself managed to bring down a Knight-Castigator, [[grimdark\|reducing the pilot to liquid with his Graviton Gun as a final act of spite before being forced to retreat]]; what Mechanicuim Knights and forces remained were [[grimdark\|sacrificed to cover his escape]].
