An Archmagos Intendant was placed into power, and the mechanicus does not intend to give up power. Planet is broadly consistent of well educated people, divided between the hives, and a series of smaller cities along the coasts populated by the wealthy and the elite. Strong unified culture based off of a simplified version of the machine cult. The Mechanicus does not seek to crush the population, but means to convert them fully over generations and generations to devout worship. A valuable resource greater then endless drones.

From the many moons and the planet proper comes lumber, chimeras, and other common armaments. As well as vast quantities of promethium and minerals.

Arbites enforcers of good quality, medium strength. Ready to assist the
