i can put that out there simply enough, he's a old Magos Juris who sided  with Fabricator-General Kelbor-Hal, however during the schism of mars his forces got destroyed, leaving him with only the corpses and forcing him to use Revenant Alchemistery, to reserect his troops.

since that moment he's become more obsessed with life and death than actual machinery and simply views everything through the terms of life and death.

his ultimate goal is to make everything into a perpetual living death, that through his technology all things will be dead but alive at the same time.
