=== Imperial region === '''Phorcys''' New sector capital, a gas giant. The orbital docks surrounding its moons house most of the crusading fleet and a host of adepts. '''Accha''' Paradise world. A marvel of the Dark Age of Technology where the Mechanicum has a lot of power. One of the key planets of the sector. '''Agantyre''' Forge World. Main manufactorum of the sector. '''Belion''' Agri-world. Its atmosphere is unbreathable, and it exports rations made from fungal matter. '''Carelia''' Civilized world. Home to a cult that praises the superiority of non-augmented humans. At odds with the Mechanicum. '''Kebrade''' Mining world. Known for production of high-spec bronzes, and heavy infantry Guard regiments. '''Krusevac''' A fortress world. Lynchpin of the Imperial reclamation effort. '''P-33''' A newly established Munitorum depot. '''Siberis''' Ice penal world, homeworld of the Death Consuls. It is about the size of Terra, and orbits located in the Vasenica sector. It orbits the local star, along with P-33, with a standard revolution lasting for twice as long as the Terran year. The planet's topography is largely shaped by volcanic activity that took place in the planet's distant past and has led to a formation of rocky hills and low mountains. The gaseous discharge during this volcanic activity led to the formation several exotic examples of flora, chief among which is the 'Fiery Palm tree' that is made famous on the unit patches of the Siberis Auxiliaries. Siberis was rumored to be first settled during mankind's expansion into the system some 30 millennia ago. Several ruins that are human in origin have been found near the planet's equator and seem to indicate a more moderate temperature. Siberis is known for the presence of exotic flora and fauna, namely the Fiery Palm Tree, and the Great White Tigers. Apparently introduced by its first human settlers, the tigers adapted to the rapidly freezing planet and took on the role of the apex predator. It is of religious significance to the more rural populations on the planet and worshiped as messengers of the God-Emperor. While this has caused minor points of contention with the Ecclesiarchy and the Chapter in the past, it is now largely seen as a backwater superstition by the hive dwelling planetary nobility. '''Skeaphus''' Skeaphus is a feudal world on the edge of Imperial space, near the border of the Tau empire. The planet is almost entirely cleared for farmland, with walled castle-cities spotting the surface, the number of which have grown exponentially in recent years. Once ruled by a monarch, the planets massive peasant population overthrew the king in the "Golden Revolution", citing heavy taxation as their main grievance. The planet is currently known as the "People's Republic of Skeaphus", a dictatorship ruled by a Kain Mortag, the former planetary Cardinal who gained the people's trust after proclaiming the Emperor told him in a vision to rule in both his and "the people's name". In his 280 years of rule, he has never lost an election, but due to his advanced age relies on the "Golden Comity" to enforce his will while he himself lives offworld. The Comity is part secret police, part gang, and is entirely dedicated to hunting down mutants, heretics, and "enemies of the Revolution and His Radiance, Kain Mortag". Skeaphus is known throughout the sector and beyond to be the baby boom capital of the Imperium. It's men on average have 8-9 kids throughout their lifetime, not including illegitimate children. This massive, consistently booming population has made Skeaphus a very active recruiting ground for millions upon millions of Guardsmen. Unfortunately, given the planet had, a millennia ago, experienced a famine which almost wiped out the entire population, Skeaphus' populace are also noticeably inbred. However, Skeaphuns are considered extremely loyal soldiers, nearly half of all Skeaphun adults sign up for the Imperial Guard. '''Wheshan''' The cardinal ocean world of Wheshan wasn't always an ocean world. It said that a long time ago, some speculate this was during the Age of Strife, the planet had tall, lush forests, green fields, and clear blue skies. But at some point in history, one of Wheshan's smaller moons came crashing down of unknown reasons. "Luckily" the moon was almost completely made out of ice. So it was only a matter of time before the sea levels started to rise. As the sea rose at an alarming rate people that could, fled the planet but the ones that where left had only one option, build higher. When the sea has stopped rising, giant hives had been built all around the planet. And much like an anthill, the structures you see on the surface is nothing compared to what is built under the surface of the water. The reason why this became a cardinal world was mainly due to an old legend that the Emperor himself came to this planet at a point in time. The legend goes that the Emperor used his might and power to split the ocean in order to retrieve an ancient artifact the was on the ocean floor. The legend has spawned many minor Emperor cults who try to split the ocean themselves, but to no avail...yet. Cardinal Kain Mortag officially lives on this world, playing a major role in the religious life of the planet's populace. Due to his "eccentricities" however, the Planetary Council of Bishops acts as the planets official ruling body, regulating the Cardinals power on Wheshan to leading sermons on the feast of Sangiunala.
