==Sector Background== A century ago the former sector capital Cordesancti fell. It was a hive world that suddenly collapsed due to Hrud infestation in the underhive. This fucked over the sector for two reasons. Firstly, it was the largest provider of manpower and munitions to the sector. Secondly, and more importantly, the occurrence of billions of deaths in so short a space of time kicked off a warpstorm that rendered most of the sector impassable. The Imperium was forced to withdraw from the sector's east, leaving its worlds to fend for themselves. In the absence of their protection, the Heraclian Confederacy formed, a defensive alliance between abandoned Imperial worlds. It is led by a former Ultramarine, disillusioned with the corruption and weakness of the Imperium. He was himself abandoned during the retreat, forced to sacrifice his brothers in vain for a position imperial commanders had no intention of keeping. He'd been stranded in the sector ever since and united many of the abandoned worlds under his leadership, claiming to be a prophet of the Emperor's true path. The people of these worlds, isolated and afraid, were inclined to listen. A hundred years later and he'd created a relatively stable empire from the alien-infested ruins that the Imperium left behind. But then the reclamation crusade turned up, to demand he hands the planets back over. This pissed him off, and he said no. So the newly arrived Crusade designates gas giant Phorcys as new sector capital, a staging post for their campaign to restore order to the sector. Probable first targets are the anarchic worlds of the contested region - Schwarz Convictus, a penal world lost to planet-wide riots, and Cordesancti, which though left uninhabitable, has lots of dark age tech treasures poking about in its ruins, which they'll want to get to before orks or pirates, or the sector Mechanicus do.
