The Cult of Krenz is a sinister brotherhood of Komra, united by their worship of the otherworldly entity Krenz.

Origins

Krenz itself is ancient beyond belief and the true identity of the entity remains a mystery. Imperial Inquisitors tasked with investigating the Cult have speculated that Krenz is one of the star gods of the Necron - the C'Tan - while others believe that it is a powerful Daemon. Both of these theories are belied by the Cult's relatively independent action. Whatever its nature, Krenz is a vile thing, psychically dominating its minions and demanding regular blood sacrifices. The entity lay in the rocky heart of Rakizor for untold ages before its discovery by the miner Edsten.

As discussed with his Gelkzaft, Edsten had embarked on a deep prospecting mission in search of valuable minerals. He was particularly hopeful that the strata he explored would be rich in the adamantium ore that was so crucial to Komra industry. However, the automatons under Edsten's control began to give anomalous readings, well outside those of any recorded mineral deposits. Fearing mechanical malfunction, the miner notified his brethren and slowly descended to the tunnels in which his machines were operating.
