Settled late in the Great Crusade by emigrants from overcrowded Nueia Rosskiya, Don-Boz promised a warmer climate more conducive to human habitation. Though considerably hotter on average than human norms would prefer, its oceans are broad and shallow and there are few landmasses large enough to permit truly significant desertification. Its star is somewhat cooler than Sol, shining a very pleasant warm orange color, and its years are short and seasons brief. Desalination plants drank of the oceans and gave life to fertile soil, and deep beneath the crust the settlers found rich veins of promethium ore. Times were good for Don-Boz, and life was simple before the Heresy. Owing to its geographical location, Don-Boz was considered a vital linchpin for controlling multiple Warp lanes through the sector and beyond. Accordingly, it was invaded no fewer than six times by the Arch-Traitor's forces, and liberated seven. Fertile fields burned to drifting ash, and both factions drank Don-Boz' promethium nearly dry with greedy mouths in order to fuel their machines. Tanks roamed freely across the land, and the civilian population was decimated by famine, disease and conscription into both Traitor and Imperial armies depending on who held the planet at the time. Indeed, not one Bozite out of a hundred survived. After the Heresy, the Bozites shifted their focus away from the ruined surface of Don-Boz and enlisted aid from their wealthy neighbors on Nueia Rosskiya. They built a series of impressive space stations and orbital facilities, making their livelihoods from Imperial Chartist vessel tariffs and assisting the Imperial Navy with drydock duties. For many centuries, Don-Boz prospered once more, though never matching its early wealth. Still, its citizens felt contented enough. And then Nueia Rosskiya launched their rebellion. Citing eminent domain from their ancient investments into the dockyards, the Nueians conscripted every ship in orbit of Don-Boz in order to transport their legions. Unable to defend themselves, the Bozites simply barricaded themselves inside the hab-domes and attempted to ride out the storm. To their dismay, when the inevitable Imperial counterattack arrived they were charged as equally guilty for not destroying ships, shipyards, and hab-stations alike to deny the traitors critical war materiel. Inquisitor Kennelax Poltaris led an Imperial attack squadron to savage Don-Boz, killing the spacers as they cowered in their homes. Don-Boz today stands in abject ruin. On the ground, a handful of millions eke out a living harvesting what little promethium remains to be had for export. In orbit, small spacer families earn their daily bread breaking up the remnants of the vast shipyards for scrap, still orbiting in a ring around Don-Boz. It is a world like many others in the Imperium. Here can be seen the full price of war.
