Sepheris Secundus 

Sepheris Secundus is a mining world located in the Calixus Sector. It is an ancient world and the constant mining activites of its inhabitants has lead to the creation of vast pits the size of canyons. its society is rigidly stratified with a person being assinged his station and vocation in his life purely on the grounds of his lineage. This strong feudal system ensures that the majority of its citizens spend thier enire lives as serfs leading an almost medival lifestyle.

The closest Sepheris Secundus has to a Planetary Defence Force are the Royal Scourges, a body of hereiditary profeesional soldiers commanded by the Queen. This, coupled with its medival society has forced the Adeptus Arbites to maintain a large presence on the planet and they are the ones that maintain Imperial law on the world.

Sepheris Secendus also has an Ordo Hereticus presence in the form of an psycher conatainment facility. it was the seeting for the novel Scrouge the Heretic by Sandy Micthell.
