'''Vaporius''' is a heathen desert world within the Koronus Expanse in Warhammer 40,000. It is ruled by a Caste of psychic Priest Kings, and the people are mostly hairless, tan, and cyan-eyed. The cities of Vaporius are made of tile, glass and copper; the deserts are red sand. The small cyan and turquoise seas are made of acid, and other smaller salt seas exist which are way too salty to drink from, and the drinkable water which is drawn up by the Priest Kings from deep underground is actually a parasitic xenos lifeform. Silicon-based rock monsters live in the mountain ridges of Vaporius, and in deep caverns beneath the sand, exiled mutated non-Priest King-psykers who drank the waters of Vaporius called The Unquenched dwell, looking like dried-out zombies. The Unquenched drain water from whatever they touch, but are never satisfied, and even if they are without water for long enough that they collapse into dust, they are unable to die, instead becoming a cursed location of floating dust that sucks the moisture out of whoever enters it. Only psychic attacks can destroy The Unquenched. There are hidden Imperial missionaries on Vaporius, but the Priest Kings realize this and try to stamp them out, despite growing dependency on trade with the Imperium of Man. | '''Vaporius''' is a heathen desert world within the Koronus Expanse in Warhammer 40,000.
