	Fenris as a planet is a cold near-iceball kept marginally livable due to extremely violent geologic forces. Its orbit is elliptical and inclined with a short apsidal period, squeezing the planet in all directions like a stress ball and causing its surface gravity to vary from .9 to 1.2 G over the Fenrissian year while causing the relatively shallow encircling ocean to cyclically freeze and melt. Only one landmass on the whole planet exhibits the stability of a continent, and that's the Fang itself. All other islands are very short lived, made of ash permafrost around a volcanic core with lifespans measured in centuries at most as the rapid glaciation cycle of ice, melt, and earthquakes causes them to shatter and collapse. But new volcanic islands are always rising as the sea crust is thin and the mantle is very active. What life persists (human and otherwise) is locked in a continuous cycle of relocation, risking the waters and ice to find newly raised lands to occupy as the old crumble away, whilst sea life must constantly avoid the regions away from the sun. It may be only a close balance of volcanic albedo that keeps Fenris's seas from freezing completely. The furious inner workings of Fenris also power fantastic aurora, just in case this wasn't enough of a Viking paradise to begin with.

Space Wolves somehow decided they won. (Mostly because the Leader of the Wolves REALLY REALLY hurt Magnus. Space wolf style!

The most we know is that the Emperor alluded to it as “a charming experiment in reconstructed mythologies” from the Dark Age of technology. This would give the impression that someone, somewhere deliberately engineered a frozen hellhole full of monsters and murder just to live out their Viking fantasies. It would also give the impression that people who did engineer Fenris probably got their understanding of Norse Mythology from DnD Monster Manuals and Marvel Comics, or possibly from the Norscans of Warhammer Fantasy fame. The fact the Emperor thinks that it's "charming" should also tell you everything you need to know about the fellow, if you somehow didn't already.		Exactly why a whole planet resembles an exaggerated Viking theme park is unclear.

	Fenris is a frozen little hellhole in [[Warhammer 40,000]], most notable for being the home world of the [[Space Wolves]]. Named after the ancient Viking wolf monster involved in Ragnarök (because the Space Wolves are also Space Vikings, at least at first glance), Fenris is located in the Segmentum Solar, near the borders with Segmentum Obscurus, Ultima Segmentum and the Eye of Terror. As of 8th edition, it is also slap-bang in the middle of the eye-of-terror-like, galaxy wide rift called the Cicatrix Maledictum. Its population is currently decimated, thanks to [[Magnus the Red\|a certain cyclops]] slaughtering everyone who lived there in order to bring <s>Prospero</s> the Planet of the Sorcerers into the material realm (aka normality).The Imperium in all politeness, classifies it as a [[Death World]], meaning that [[grimdark\|everything in the planet's biosphere is lethal and will always try to kill you and most of the times succeed]]. This makes it the ideal place to recruit for an army of space vikings.		Fenris is a frozen little hellhole in [[Warhammer 40,000]], most notable for being the home world of the [[Space Wolves]].

	Fenris is composed of a single continent called Asaheim (Literally translating to ''Home of Gods'' in old Norse), with hundreds of sinking-and-reforming islands in its vast world sea. Those parts of Fenris which aren't completely frozen over can only sustain human life for no more than a few minutes, and alternate between being frozen and undergoing earthquakes. The [[Fenrisian Wolf\|Fenrisian wolves]] are among the most dangerous predators in the galaxy, as they can reach the size of a full-grown horse. The dominant sea life are octopi-like monsters called Kraken, and they have tentacles that can reach miles in length -- some paranoid types have claimed that these may actually be stranded, devolved remnants of a past [[Tyranids\|Tyranid]] invasion, just as they claim is the case with the notorious [[Catachan]] Devils. Presuming the “Kraken’s Egg” in the Fang actually is one of their eggs, then these suspicions are true; Magos Biologis were permitted to examine it in 999.M41 and declared it to be of Tyranid origin. There are also bipedal, anthropomorphic... ''things'' ...walking about the snow of Asaheim that the locals refer to as [[trolls]], ~~some of whom have~~ shifting camouflage and ~~are~~ known as ~~Doppelgangrels~~. There are also the [[Wulfen]]- abortive Space Wolf neophytes that have devolved into <strike>[[Digganobz]]</strike> <strike>[[Marvel Comics\|Wolverine lookalikes]]</strike> wolf-like monsters. All in all, it's one of the deadliest planets in the galaxy.
