It was revealed in his writings, Baron's life-long ambition was to control the essence of Imagination and apply its power to his work.
He was extremely knowledgeable in the legends of the First Builders, but completely and openly disregarded the Code of Honor protected by the Mythrans as a mere superstition that inhibited Imagination and creativity.

At last, the Imagimeter discovered the location of the fabled Planet Crux. The four explorers found and entered the Nexus Temple and found the Imagination Nexus. While his allies imagined their most desired creations, Baron decided to demonstrate its full power of imagination without constraints and bringing fourth a chaotic spider boss into being.
However Baron gloated over his victory and the Spider Boss did not see Baron as its master and turned on him. Baron was dragged by the Spider Boss into the Imagination Nexus, where their combined chaotic ideals corrupted the last essence of pure imagination into a powerful and destructive force known as the maelstrom. While baron was though to be dead or a prisoner within the maelstrom, recent research by Paradox scientists have proven otherwise. Neither dead nor imprisoned, Baron has actually became the mastermind behind the Maelstrom. Now known as the Darkitect, he seeks to control the Lego Universe through chaos and destruction with his minions the Stromlings.
