Once rich in ore, Pellucida IX is now a scarred husk, its surface mined out and sustained by the yields of its moons, a fading asteroid belt and increasing off-world imports. Refining continues at the vast Great Mineral Procession Facility, supported by the notorious PC-3150 penal colony, both under the iron rule of House de Vorm.
Founded under von Ulm authority, the world has endured riots, psyker uprisings, and cult infiltration—most infamously the revolt of the Burning Princess and her ally Silas Grimm, purged with Inquisitorial sanction and Hospitaller blades. Today, Governor Alaric de Vorm enforces draconian labor laws, crushing guild power and keeping order through fear and faith.
