	Obviously, the homeworld gets its own Sept. The Capital of the T'au Empire, it is heavily defended by Orbital Stations, significant Kor'Vattra assets, and even a massive fortress on the planet surface to protect the [[Ethereal\|Ethereals]] in case of invasion. The planet itself has a few seas, with arid Savannah and scattered mountains. T'au from this Sept are considered especially learned and wise.		Obviously, the homeworld gets its own Sept.

	The only other couple of facts worth mentioning are that no alien has ever set foot on this planet, and that T'au has a moon named Lu'val, which they colonized, and that most new colonies base themselves upon this Sept.

	Fluff indicates that D'yanoi was home to Reptilian beasts that would eat the colonists, indicating that it is very much close to a death world, and that [[Orks]] tend to roam the area, though they generally get their butts kicked by the bluies. They also tend to have an abnormally high numbers of [[Vespid]] allies in their Cadres due to the Sept's proximity to the planet Vespid.

Obviously, this cost the T'au ''very'' dearly. Some Ethereals were dispatched to deal with this, but the fact that this even happened is fucking stupid. Though Khorne does seem to take an interest in [[Farsight\|T'au from Vior'la]], so... it’s stupid anyway. While T'au are not immune to [[Chaos]]—including a freaking [[Chaos God]] turning its gaze on them—this was often in individual T'au, not entire armies.

	Still, despite this possible Khornate influence, their 8e Sept Tenet nonetheless focuses on shooting rather than melee by letting all their Rapid Fire weapons count as Assault, and removing the penalty for advancing and firing said Assault weapons.
