Captain Juan Juarez Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 He was eaten by Tyranids. Was he an appetiser or main course though? Or perhaps he was dessert?

Justicar Shodan Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 He got stabbed in the back, the Tyranids being the knife guided by someone who wanted to see him dead ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220363-solomon-lok/#findComment-2630290 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justicar Shodan Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Yes, its been a while since i read the book, so here is what i remember. Solomon Lok was sent to the Anphelion System with some Elysian Drop troops and a handful of Space Marines ( i dont remember exactly, was it the Red Scorpions?) to investigate a research facility which had fallen silent. He discovered that the facility was built to research whether it is possible to control tyranids or not ( obvisiouly it is not :) ) and that it had been overrun by the tyranids. Shortly before the final battle the Space Marines withdrew on the order of the Inquisition and left him and his Elysians behind to die on this planet. € It should be mentioned that it was not the purpose of the whole mission to kill him. This was more of a nice byproduct :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220363-solomon-lok/#findComment-2630478 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inquisitor Fox Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Remember that the Inquisition is NOT a unified body. It is quite possible that Inquisitor A was researching the tyranid thing, and Inquisitor Lok was stumbling upon what he had found out. Not wanting to be discovered, Inquisitor A could manipulate events such that Lok died. Now I don't have any official answer of course, but it bears consideration...

These bear a striking description-ish to the events described in "Warrior Brood" by C.S.Goto. I've been doing some background research for a fan-fiction I'm writing about the DeathWatch and in loose terms, these things were described in that book. Not exactly but very close.

bjørn eirik Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 you gotta love the Inquisition; not even Dark Eldar nor Chaos worshippers screw each other over as much as them! xD *cough* I will be aqcuiring the new GK models though :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220363-solomon-lok/#findComment-2632110 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lvn-da-dream Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 At the end of the book, things do look bleak for Inquisitor Lok, but it is left at that. Inquisitors seem to have a tendency to have their 'deaths' exaggerated; only to turn up years later and completely on the other side of the universe.

DinoDoc Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 If it makes you feel any better a death warrant is signed for the man responsible for the death of Inquisitor Lok by the Ordo Hereticus who seemed to have penetrated the communications network used by Lok's superior. However it's been put on hold until they see the final results of his research.

Major Silva Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 He was killed by Tyranids after blowing up a biotitan with a belt of krak grenades and was betrayed by an Inquisitor Lord named Varius and he now has an assasination form pending until he becomes of no use to the Imperium.
