History

Attached to the Iron Warriors for the majority of the Great Crusade, Cerberus Cohort developed an ambush-based Synergy with the IV Legio, often camouflaging their automata and war engines to take advantage of foes too hasty to close range with the Lords of Olympia.

Cerberus Cohort was a technocracy nominally lead by a triumvirate or senior Magi: Domina Cable, Domina Cyniss, and Dominus Thexeus. These Mago would determine when the Cohort went to war, and in what capacity. For over three hundred years this coalition kept Cerberus Cohort functioning at peak capacity and ensured that the Iron Warriors they served with never lacked for allies.

In truth, the power within Cerberus Cohort rested with Archmagos Thexeus. His iron will and technological aptitude kept his Battle-Automata marching to Perturabo's unforgiving pace, and ensured that Cerberus Cohort won favour and esteem amongst the command echelons of the Traitors. Archmagos Thexeus ultimately died during Combat action CC-763-S-48361, known to those outside Cerberus Cohort as the Baylonian Insurrection, defending the Warhound Excorrigatus Nocti from the Salamanders Primarch Vulkan, holding the Primarch at bay long enough for his remaining Maniples to breach Salamanders lines and secure more territory for the Traitors during that conflict.

Magos Domina Kable remained locked in her forge-fane for the majority of the Great Crusade working on a project she would share with no-one. When the Salamanders finally breached her temple's defences, they found no trace of the Magos, only an empty chamber with a machine cradle that clearly housed something immense. What was left of her data-files revealed little, and not even the Loyalist Tech-Magi brought in to decipher her work could tell exactly what she had been working on. It would be ten thousand years before she resurfaced at the head of a force of twisted and corrupt Daemon Engines, carving territory from the Imperium of Man with relentless force.

Magos Domina Cyniss was a flawed but effective tool in her Archmagos' arsenal. A cybertheurgy mishap early in her career almost entirely severed her Corpus Callosum and burned out large portions of her brilliant mind. Now almost completely insane, her atypical thought patterns and unorthodox approach to war has enabled Archmagos Thexus to secure statistically impossible victories. For all her battlefield brilliance, however, she was not up to the task of commanding Cerberus Cohort in its entirely, failing to live up to the high standards set by her predecessor.

With Kable missing in action, Thexeus dead, and Cyniss unable to command, Iron Warriors Primarch Perturabo assimilated Cerberus Cohort in its entirely into the ranks of the IV Legio, dispersing its Automata and personnel amongst the various Companies present for the Baylonian Insurrection.

Several Automata found themselves serving alongside Warsmith Forrix and the First Grand Company's Terminators, whom Perturabo personally led into battle on multiple occasions during the Insurrection.
