===Notable Landmarks=== These may serve as an added piece of fluff for the world, '''''but feel free to skip this section.'''''<br> These may act as a holy site, pilgrimage site, or be under investigation by many factions. {| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center" ! colspan="2" |Notable Landmarks (d20) |- ! 01 | '''Area of Unnatural Beauty:''' A perfect, tranquil area of beauty amidst the harsh hive world. Crystal-clear waters and vibrant flora seem out of place. Things grow where they have no place growing. Those who visit report a strange sense of calm and are reluctant to leave. Some seem to disappear entirely without a trace. Those who return are often distant, as if changed by something unseen. |- ! 02 | '''The Spire:''' A colossal tower built by the Adeptus Mechanicus, said to house an ancient relic or forge. |- ! 03 | '''The Cathedral of the Emperor:''' A massive cathedral dedicated to the Emperor, particularly large and ornate. |- ! 04 | '''The Excavation:''' A vast pit where something was once extracted from the earth. It is deep enough to pierce into the planet's mantle, hundreds or thousands of kilometres deep. May have been mining, a weapon, or some noble's curiosity. |- ! 05 | '''The Eternal Flame:''' A legendary flame kept burning in a sacred temple, said to have been ignited by the Emperor himself during the Great Crusade. Whether this is true or not is disputed. |- ! 06 | '''The Necropolis:''' A vast cemetery where the venerated dead of the hive world are interred, filled with elaborate tombs and monuments to fallen heroes of the Imperium. Akin to a cemetery world, but localised. |- ! 07 | '''The Pillars of Hope:''' Enormous statues of revered Imperial figures that stand as symbols of the planet’s loyalty to the Imperium. May be carved into mountains, carved from entire mountains, or regular statues. |- ! 08 | '''The Eternal Pulse:''' A massive energy generator buried deep beneath the hive that hums day and night, its power believed to be a gift from the Emperor. However, some suspect it may be drawing power from something far darker. |- ! 09 | '''The Hallowed Basin:''' A sacred lake said to have healing powers, located in a remote part of the planet, where pilgrims often journey to seek blessings or cures. |- ! 10 | '''The Great Machine:''' A mysterious machine buried deep in the planet's crust, thought to predate the Imperium, and highly guarded by the Adeptus Mechanicus, but often visited by them as part of a pilgrimage or study. |- ! 11 | '''The Choir Spire:''' A colossal tower resonating with hymns sung by a choir numbering in the thousands. Its acoustics are said to amplify the voices to divine levels. |- ! 12 | '''The Reliquary of Eternal Service:''' A massive vault housing relics of sainted labourers and workers who served the Emperor. Pilgrims offer their tools and hands for blessing, hoping to emulate their devotion. |- ! 13 | '''The Vox Monolith:''' An ancient vox-transmission tower said to carry the Emperor's words directly to the faithful. Though its origins are unknown, it is revered as a direct connection to His divine will. |- ! 14 | '''The Bastion of Triumph:''' A grand military fortress that symbolises service in past battles. The walls are adorned with murals of victorious battles, and its halls are treated as hallowed ground. |- ! 15 | '''The Hall of Reflections:''' A great hall adorned with mirrors that reflect the faces of those who enter. It is said that the mirrors show a person’s true self, revealing their innermost thoughts and desires. While many seek the hall for clarity, others claim the mirrors drive people mad with what they see. |- ! 16 | '''The Emperor’s Hand:''' A mountain peak carved into the likeness of the Emperor’s outstretched hand. Pilgrims often ascend its treacherous paths to touch it, and seek blessings. |- ! 17 | '''The Archives:''' A library deep within the hive’s restricted zones, containing ancient records of unknown origin. Some believe these texts hold forbidden knowledge, while others view it as a holy archive. |- ! 18 | '''The Spine:''' A twisted tower said to grow from the very ground itself, its surface seemingly organic. The locals claim it’s a holy structure, but its true nature is a source of unease. |- ! 19 | '''The Great Pyramid:''' An ancient structure from a forgotten era, possibly linked to an older civilisation or even a xenos race, now under investigation. |- ! 20 | '''The Gate:''' A massive archway discovered beneath the hive’s deepest levels. It hums with an unnatural energy and is adorned with grotesque symbols. The Adeptus Mechanicus, Ecclesiarchy, and Inquisition investigate it, but whispers of heresy spread among the populace. |} <br>
