===Notable Locations=== *'''Serjance Docks:''' Beneath the veneer of productive industry, the Serjance Docks seethe with resentment, ambition, and cold calculation. While Administratum factors demand the achievement of quotas and select picked men to lead work-weary teams of stevedores, riggers, mechanics and other vital functions, the ranks of brute labor are filled with the criminal, the corrupt, and the enslaved. Labor gangs roam the docks for any lax hand, shanghaiing them to deathly work across the Glacial Sea extracting promethium and fighting shadowy battles amongst the oil-drenched warehouses and rusting tankers. The greatest of these slavelords is an ex-Administratum questor, Heironymous Extor, whose heavily-enhanced mind and knowledge of bureacratese have enabled the Black Hand to seize more labor contracts and barracks than any other gang in living memory. *'''Morial Chantry:''' The Morial Chantry is the most deeply-respected and honored funeral shrine in the hive. The original structure, long-since hidden beneath the serpentine flues and crude human stonemongery of later additions, predated the foundation of the Hive proper by nearly 200 years. In the beginning of Calivere's history, the chantry was but one outpost in the long, final siege of the Falxian Gladocracy, and its master was a renowned Captain of the Salamanders. Their deeds entered sector legend, and their fortress became one of the planet's first shrines, with millions of soldiers and craftsmen making pilgrimage. In time, this developed into a cult community, one that left a permanent mark on Caliveran practice and faith. To this day, the Morial Chantry is the heart of a divergent cult of the Promethean Way, one linked through doctrine and ancient treaties with the [[Victorum Sector#Sons of the Dragon|Sons of the Dragon]]. *'''Mannusian Munitions Factorum Prime:''' Within the shadowed canyons of the Calivere's Forge District, several manufactories and guilds distinguish themselves by quality and design rather than prodigious production figures. 'Mannusian Munitions is the premier of these, crafting near-forgeworld quality arms and ammunition for discerning buyers. Long interchange between its overseers and ambassadors of the shadowed forgeworld of Nilumanen has contributed to Calivere's continuing independence from the forge-fanes of Hive Gergenir. It's most famous product is the summit gun, a medium-calibre stubgun of astonishingly small size and inerringly accurate rounds controlled by a camouflaged augmetic interface. *'''Cathedral Mortis Imperium:''' The "High Hand of the Emperor," as he is known, rules from the smoke-drowned depths of the Mortis Imperium. Once a cathedral of the Saviour Emperor, this ruin was cast down during the ''Seventh Battle of Avalonus'' at the end of the Reign of Blood. But its literal collapse into the Underhive did not end its faith, and a shadow church of true heretics has clung to survival behind the masks of the hive's people. This subterranean fane works to undermine, literally and figuratively, the foundations of Calivere's faith by promoting their vengeance-twisted take on the Saviour Emperor's ancient teachings through Calivere's mystery theaters and subtle acts of murder. *'''Fort Pronatus:''' A major Departmento Munitorum supply depot, Fort Pronatus is a transshipment point for aircraft and vehicles destined for service in one of the Emperor's armies. Here, such vehicles undergo their final qualification checks, ensuring they are up to frontline standard. Any which fail are reassigned to a lesser branch of the Imperium's defences; most often Planetary Defence Forces, but also the Schola Progenium, Munitorum security, and the private armies of Rogue Traders. A small but significant percentage of these cast-offs, and an even smaller percentage of perfectly good vehicles, find their way to less-credentialed buyers.
