The Tiji Sector contains many notable planets that are described in detail here.

Work in progress.

Planets

Abyssius Monasturius

Planetary Class: Hive World.

Xomula: Death is a preferable option

Environment: Inhospitably hot, dry and barren. Most of the population lives in heat-shielded hive cities.

Leadership: The planetary governor is elected from the most respected priests of the Ministorum, to serve until his death.

Imperial Contribution: Dedicated logistics hub and manufacturer of common products.

Additional Information: One of the largest population centres in the Tiji Sector, Abyssius Monasturius shows little sign of corruption. Controlled with precise and care by the Ecclesiarchy, it's home to billions of the truly faithful who dedicate their lives to the Imperium, whether it's in factories or in logistical offices.

Agailareptor

Planetary Class: Dead World. Formerly Cemetery World.

Environment: Hot and arid with a poisoned atmosphere and sparse flora. The location of the remaining heretics is unknown.

Leadership: The surviving heretics cooperate with one another in a democratic system.

Imperial Contribution: Before its damnation, this world served as the final resting place of the famous and the fanatical.

Additional Information: Once a solemn graveyard for the richest and most zealous servants of the Tiji Sector, this world is now damned. The story goes that a handful of unscrupulous undertakers were robbing the very tombs they were supposed to be protecting and in the process, they unearthed an unholy artifact that belonged to a nobleman who took his heresy with him to the grave. Unable to resist the foul object's temptations, they went about defiling and converting the rest of the planet's population only to be discovered by the Inquisition - who delivered their judgement swiftly and without mercy. On this dead planet, less than a hundred heretics survive in a close knit community, worshipping this strange idol until the day they die.

Aquilum

Planetary Class: Mining World.

Environment: Ocean world rife with tectonic activity and full of flora and fauna. Population lives in seafaring vessels and habitats on the ocean floor.

Leadership: The Chapter Master of the Deep Ones.

Imperial Contribution: Sacred training ground for the Deep Ones and a valuable mining colony for the Adeptus Mechanicus.

Additional Information: The Space Marine Chapter known as the Deep Ones treat Aquilum as their own, although the Adeptus Mechanicus have a stronger claim over the mineral rich world. While the Cult of the Machine God plunder the depths of the planet for valuable minerals and metals, the Deep Ones traverse the darkest crevices of Aquilum's oceans for a variety of reasons. Many acolytes and battle brothers venture beneath the service to combat and best the wildlife while others of the Chapter seek to commune with them and gain the enlightenment of their Chapter Master. Dark rumours suggest that the Adeptus Astartes even copulate with the alien beasts of the depths. Such lies do not merit thinking about.

Asev

Planetary Class: Feudal World.

Environment: Warm and watery with an extremely poisonous atmosphere. The primitive Steel Age population lives in a vast, self-maintaining underground complex.

Leadership: The natives are led by a prophet who preaches native interpretations of the Imperial religion. The prophet names his successor on his deathbed.

Augurus Prime

Planetary Class: Forge World.

Environment: Watery world with extreme seasons and sparse flora. The population live in enclosed forge hives.

Azarious

Planetary Class: Mining World.

Environment: Heavy gravity, roasting hot and extremely poisonous. The population lives in heat-shielded underground mining complexes.

Leadership: Each complex elects a Singer, who handles the logistics and repairs and sings Ministorum hymns to raise the spirits of his community.

Environment: Small but perfect garden world. The population live in temporary housing complexes.

Leadership: The expedition to this place is led by a Magos Explorator, who leads a large mercenary force.

Imperial Contribution: Prospective pleasure world. Currently being investigated by the Adeptus Mechanicus after sightings of alien technology.

Cataclysm

Planetary Class: Forbidden World.

Environment: Garden world with extreme seasons. The population lives in a single dome-shaped and environmentally sealed hive.

Cobarak

Additional Information: A world that was once a paradise. It was hit by a shard of a broken world, so it's now a hell hole.

Ferrum Sanctimonia

Temperate Shrine World with beaches. Priest volleyball! Has a Hospitalier Sisters of Battle order here called Order of the Healing Touch because a Saint purged Heretics from the region. Sisters guard that coastal spot even today.

Forge World LVX, In Process of Renaming to Emperor's Holy Light

A former Forge-World turned Shrine-World by the beatification of Saint Infernus. The Ecclesiarchy now desperately struggles against the Cult of the Omnissiah for religious dominance on the planet.

Hades

A fleet of colony ships that discovered, to their dismay, that the planet they were sent to colonize didn't exist. Until the paperwork goes through to correct this error, the fleet pays tithes to The Imperium and does its best to survive in the void.

Hesphri J62G

Tiny, unremarkable planet. A small crashed ship of 56 struggles to survive until rescue.

Hetopia III

Penal colony so hellish that it was designated as a Pleasure World as a joke by two yuppies in the Administratum.

Hylios

Hylios is a world in the middle of the terraforming process. Simple as that. It also has only 47 people maintaining quite a military.

Implausibla Prime

Irradiated hive world under the oppressive regime of former Arbiter, His Most Geriatric Bitumen Hoarfrost, Planetary Governor. A true galactic rarity, Implausibla is a hive world with adequate law enforcement; the Arbites undergo the same training that most Imperial Guardsman do.

Iniega

Pleasure-class gas giant capable of sustaining life with eighteen satellites covered in Hive Cities.

Inferno

A waterless, searing Death World with a deadly atmosphere that somehow supports 9 million people and a high tech Titan legion with industrial tech only. May the Omnissiah be praised.

Itsot

Blistering hot shrine world 'tended to' by unlucky bastards in the Ministorum who nobody likes.

Ix

Bizarre frontier world with thousands of fertile rain forest islands drifting around on an ocean of magma.

Ixion II

Blazingly hot Administratum world where the oceans migrate. The entire population lives on floating hive-arks.

Kratos

Crazy world like Xomula but with only microbial life on it.

Koganusan

Terrifying, poisonous and ocean-covered forge world with one-hour days. It leaves a cloud of landmarks in its wake that it rams into when it completes its circle.

Mining Site 0298

Features a rocky, barren landscape that's grim, dark and gritty and covered in miners.

Mundania

Average in every way.

Nashakal

Extraordinarily important and well defended shrine world.

Nebraskus

Agri-world. Light gravity, bearable atmosphere.

Nephertis

A Forbidden World controlled by Chaos death cults; the xenofauna are absolutely deadly. Not even the Inquisition sees any use for the place.

New Krieg

Hive world with an absolutely deadly atmosphere, little moisture and endless piles of warheads. Krieg, anyone?

New Prospero

Wonderful, beautiful paradise world that's just about perfect in every way imaginable - to everyone's surprise.

Nogred

Developing world, mainly military.

Odabar

A bureaucratic hell-hole, almost literally. A hive world of unbearable heat devoted almost utterly to the Administratum. Mercenary wars between varying branches and offices are encouraged by the dictatorship, which believes they help promote efficiency.

Orvana

Highly populated hive world under incredibly strict Imperial rule after rebellion. Pick up that can, criminal scum.

Ravenforge

Nobody goes to Ravenforge.

Requiem

Frozen poisonous wasteland, but there's bodies of fallen Guardsman and Space Marines, so they'll find those bodies and give them a proper burial Emperor-dammit.

Saskatchewion

A massive agriworld that uses the planet's extraordinarily toxic atmosphere to magnify light into the pervasive agri-domes.

Sors Natio

Moist water vapor planet.

Surat Thani

A Cemetery World that is dotted by rocky plateaus that go above the clouds, and thermal storms that melt steel. It's an incredibly important planet in the Tiji Sector; it's where the Guardsmen are buried.

Syran

Mineral rich mining world with lots of radiation due to an enormous Red Giant sun.

Taedium

A frontier world, that will be a paradise once it's fully colonized.

Tempest

A planet that will cook you in the summer, freeze you solid in the winter and kill you via terrible storms in between. Also a dictatorship.

Tempestus Solaris

Planet itself is worthless. Orbiting space stations are valuable to the military. So valuable, it's their capital.

Texasium

Agri-world covered in a bunch of farmers who zealously follow a religion preached to them by a handful of confused missionaries.

Unpredictibla VI

63 xenos, descendants of a crashed ship's crew, try desperately to reclaim the knowledge to get off this miserable rock, but have so far only managed to claim back advanced space.

USSR

Reservation of United Security of Select Republics: A planet known for it's razor sharp grasses which are processed down into drinkable machine oil. The planet is almost entirely volcanic glass, which is farmed and harvested by the population.

Utopia

Reaches nearly 400 degrees in the summer, but has swamps in the polar regions because of the crazy axial tilt.

Veresuomi

A mining world notable for its heavy defenses and complete lack of Imperial presence.

Volcania

61 dudes with spears and swords fucking up everything that dares to come to their planet.

Welktor

A forbidden, former-chaos planet. It's current population of 8 million seeks to eke out an existence post-Exterminatus.

Wereu IV

A now forbidden former Mechanicus R&D world. All further information is classified as part of the condition of the planet's quarantine.

Winterchase

Freezes in winter. Boils in summer. Large population of feral nomads who have their own version of the Emperor to reflect on their world travel to stop themselves from dying. They make for fierce warriors and loyal guard recruits.

Xaviol

The Sector's communications hub by virtue of its predominately Astropathic population.

Xomula

Hideous, Catachan-dangerous swamp world. Absolutely crazy Xeno world where the Adeptus Mechanicus have gone to research.

Yhas

A celestial object that's not quite a planet or a sun. This creates valuable objects worth mining for on the 50 satellites.

Zemoo

A xeno world with potential Kroot presence. Suspected to be a Tau listening / research post.
