Meridian

The capital world of sub-sector Aurelia, Meridian features huge city-spires rising from urban landscapes the size of continents. Angel Forge, its ancient Manufactorium, produces everything from household goods to lasguns and aircraft.

The constant battles of the last decade have taken its toll on the beleaguered Hive World and placed it in constant turmoil. Riots for basic supplies in the lower-spires are constant and widespread, and the planet's planetary defense force are stretched too thin with both threats at home and throughout the sub-sector. The inevitable low morale and exhaustion of the planetary defense force has led to rampant mutiny, desertion, and worse, heresy. The intervention of outside Imperial influences was necessary, and regiments of Cadian Shock Troops have been brought in to maintain control and discipline. Despite this, the machinations of Chaos continue to inspire corruption and heresy, picking away at Meredian's resolve.
