Editing Death World

A classification of world used by the [[Imperium of Man]] to describe various worlds where everything on the planet is trying to kill its human population. You know the old saying if you can't adapt to an environment, make it adapt to you? Doesn't apply on Death Worlds. You have predators the size of Land Speeders, environments so extremely hot or cold most don't make it into their teens (let alone out of them) and resources are so scarce that every human settlement has adopted a philosophy of "kill or be killed" toward outsiders.

One must ask why the Imperium allows such worlds to exist, and there's only one reason: if you can survive all of that, then you're badass enough to become an Aspirant into the [[Space Marines]]. The leftovers? They become the most badass of the [[Imperial Guard]].

==Noted Death Worlds==
*[[Baal]] and its moons, homeworld of the [[Blood Angels]].
*[[Catachan]], homeworld of the Catachan Jungle Fighters.
*[[Fenris]], homeworld of the [[Space Wolves]].
