Editing Screaming Vortex (section)

==The Gloaming Worlds==
The furthest reaches of the Vortex, the closest to real-space.

'''Xurunt:''' A world of great landmasses divided by small, acidic seas favored by [[Khorne]], inhabited by brutal tribes of [[barbarian]]s called the Xur, whose long, hot summers revolve around herding the Xurunt - a reptilian beast that may be a mutated subspecies of [[grox]] - and warring with each other for the favor of "Baphtar". They obtain metal by butchering mechanical monsters called Orin that emerge from deep below the earth, said to be the product of a hidden race of [[Chaos Dwarf|stunted, deformed, dark technomancers]] called the "Svartlings". Possibly a Chaos-corrupted descendant race of the [[Leagues of Votann]]?

'''Q'sal:''' A rich and prosperous world of [[magitek]]-fashioning sorcerer-technocrats under the dominion of [[Tzeentch]].

'''Asphodel:''' A dim, swampy world of treacherous mires inhabited by devolving tribes of [[kroot]]. Its orbit sporadically brings it within range of Berin by flying beast, leading to a great invasion. Also home to Krootors, Kroot Alligators.

'''Berin:''' A harsh, scorched world of wind-swept, chemical rich deserts inhabited by tribes of [[ork]]s who fight constantly for the sparse waterholes and metal veins. Its orbit sporadically brings it within range of Asphodel by the primitive rockets, triggering a great invasion.

'''The Hollows:''' A planet literally cut in half by the efforts of the Dark Mechanicum.

'''The Writhing World:''' A world made of intertwined worms of continental scale, inhabited by master [[fleshcrafting|biomancers]] who use their sorcery and organic technology to dominate the local tribes.

'''Kurse:''' A post-apocalyptic wasteland of a world, devastated by nuclear inferno and now inhabited by legions of savage [[mutant]]s.

'''Malignia:''' A [[Death World]] in the form of a perpetually twilit jungle teeming with killer beasts and carnivorous flora.

'''Sacgrave:''' An impossibly fortified hub for the Vortex's traders and pirates.

'''The Wreck of the Kasserkratch:''' A legendary haunted [[Space Hulk]].

'''Messia:''' A blasted rocky world where a single day takes a year, leaving its "day" side a scorched, radiation-soaked desert and its "night" side a frigid, misty fungus forest, its inhabitants continually rebuilding their cities to stay in the "dusk" line.

'''The Tyrant Star:''' A mysterious wandering [[Daemon World]] also seen in the [[Calixis Sector]].

'''The Cat's Cradle:''' A particualrly warp-saturated spot in the Gloaming Worlds.

'''The War Moons of Talax:''' Three moons orbiting the remains of four planets that were fused together by the Vortex's birth, inhabited by warlike techno-barbarian artificers who worship [[Khorne]].

'''Ghibelline:''' A [[Forge World]] devoted to Slaanesh, where fallen machines of war lie amidst surprising natural beauty.

'''The Forbidden Portal:''' A terrifying and enigmatic world fiercely guarded by [[Eldar]] [[Harlequins]] that lies just at the very cusp of where the Screaming Vortex begins.

'''The Ragged Helix:''' An astroid belt filled with pirates and [[Slaanesh]]i cultists that lies at the fringes of the Gloaming Worlds and the Inner Ring.
