No New Posts Vostroya

Vostroya is a world in the Halo-zone beyond the Eye of Terror, which swore allegiance to Mars during the Age of Strife. It is now ruled by a committee of Techtriarchs, a mix of Mechanicus Magos and more traditional Imperial planetary government. During the Horus Heresy, Vostroya refused to provide regiments to the Emperor, prefering instead to reserve the population in the manufactorium blanketing the world. After the Heresy came to an end the Vostroyans agreed to supply every first born son to service with the Imperial Guard.

No New Posts Sameter

Sameter Was the pre-eminent industrial Agri world in the Helican subsector. By 241.M41 it was in terminal decline as competition from the Noble houses of Thracian Primaris had forced the planetary govenors to relax controls on pollution in order to compete. Instead of resurrecting the local economy it lead to lead to a further decline in production. Sameter provides Regiments to the Imperial guard it has a proud tradition of mixed foundings.

No New Posts Mordia

The Mordian day is the same as their year, and as such half of the planet is bathed in perpetual darkness and the other half burnt to a cinder by the glaring sun. This makes it quite a miserable place. The planet's lack of rotation prevents any strong winds and as such the atmosphere is thick and dark. The millions of inhabitants live in vast hive cities where all resources are controlled and distributed by the state. There is much discontent among the people, and the Mordian Iron Guard spend a lot of their time keeping the populace down. It is also located near to the Eye of Terror in the Segmentum Obscurus.

No New Posts Medusa

Medusa is the homeworld of the Iron Hands Space Marine Chapter. It is situated dangerously close to the Eye of Terror, and as such is located within the Segmentum Obscurus.

It is a bleak world locked in perpetual gloom. The sun almost never breaks through the dark, polluted sky and the planet is mostly a range of ice capped mountains interspersed with volcanoes and boiling hot geysers. The planet is unstable and the tectonics plates are constantly shifting, creating and destroying oceans and mountains.

No New Posts Gudrun

Gudrun is the capital of the Helican subsector and has been the home to the human species for 3,500 years. It is ruled by a Feudal system of noble patronage which extends even beyond its own star system into neighbouring worlds. It is the recruiting ground for the Gudrunite Rifle formations of the imperial guard. A founding of a new regiment is always a cause for a planet wide celibration. Once the capital of the Helican Sector, in 241.M41 one of the preminent Noble houses on Gudrun - House Glaw - was found to be riven with a chaos cult. Once this came to be known and the noble house was destroyed root and branch. The damage caused to the reputation and prestiege of Gudrun, led to the relocation of sector Headquarters to Thracian Primaris.

No New Posts The Eye of Terror

The Eye of Terror is a massive warp rift where the Warp enters realspace. It came into existence along with the Chaos god Slaanesh at the time of the Fall of the Eldar, and signalled the end of Eldar civilization's dominance. The Eye covers most of the former Eldar Empire located in Segmentum Obscurus.

Within the Eye, the laws of reality no longer apply; time flows at erratic rates, and matter and energy are indistinct. Horrible creatures fly through space along Warp currents, terrorizing any creature unfortunate enough to end up inside.

No New Posts Cinchare

Cinchare is a Mineral rich rock orbiting a rogue star wandering through in the Halo zone outside Segmentum Obscurus. When first discovered it was a system of 9 planets and an asteroid belt. By M41 it had 6 planets and a fan of asteroid belts. Cinchare itself follows an almost figure eight orbit around its sun. This strange orbital pattern and the close proximity to another star system (Pymbyle), creates extremely unpredictable gravitational fluxes and as a consequence, the formation of extremely rare minerals.

The only settlement on the world is Cinchare Minehead. A mining and port facility founded in 321.[M41]. It is currently run by a cartel of Imperial Allied Minerals and Ortog Mining.

No New Posts Caliban

Caliban is the homeworld to the Dark Angels Space Marine chapter. It is a cursed but beautiful planet, being close to the realm of Chaos.

The people were hardy, brought up by the sword and the planet was covered in jungle inhabited by the twisted bodies of beasts. The people were forced to build vast fortresses out of stone where the warrior elite of Caliban ruled from.

No New Posts Cadia

Cadia is a terrestrial Fortress World on the edge of the nebula known as the Eye of Terror. Cadia's natural environment is similar to Terra's, with a large Ocean covering 70 percent of the planet. The land mass that does exist is divided between incredibly thick pine forests and vast glaciers. The planet is slightly cooler then most but not to the point that it adversely effects growing conditions. Cadia was settled sometime in the early 32nd millennium by Humans, who quickly became the dominant species. Cadia's proximity to the dangerous Eye of Terror has made it necessary for the people of Cadia to fortify the planet. After the first chaos invasion soon after the planet was settled cadians cities changed from a plan of broad avenues to one where the streets of its cities arranged in zig-zag patterns meant to make any intruding enemies fight for every block. It is here that Abaddon the Despoiler, Warmaster of the Chaos Legions, brings down his continual assaults or Black Crusades from his hold in the Eye of Terror. At the heart of each cadian City is a fortress or castle called a Kasr in the local dialect. The Largest Kasr in 241.M41 Was Kasr Derth. Cadia is the home of the Imperial Guard Cadian Shock Troopers regiments, widely regarded as the best soldiers in the Imperium short of the superhuman Space Marines.

No New Posts Arx

Arx is the only other exit (though unstable) from the Eye of Terror besides the Cadian Gate, and has been the starting point of Black Crusades by the forces of Chaos. It was from here that Abaddon the Despoiler began the Gothic War by raiding the research and monitoring station here in 139.M41. It bypasses the Cadian Gate, as such making it an attractive place to attack from.
