Sector / Segmentum

Segmentum Obscurus

Description

Stollenhall is a terraced mining world, held by the Slag Brethren since M28; its surface is scarred by centuries of open extraction, and the manufacturing nexus lies twelve kilometres deeper, built into the bedrock. Heavy ordnance, armour plate and drive components for void ships are made here.
Home world of: Excipio-Phi-Tau (chapter), Excipio-Tau-Sigma (chapter).

Fauna & Flora

Terraces of open-cast scars, grass growing on the oldest; slag worms in the heaps and hawks over the terraces that the workers call “overseers”.

Population & Society

Some millions in terraced mining settlements above the manufacturing nexus, which lies twelve kilometres deep in the bedrock; the Slag Brethren have held the world since M28, and two cohorts, Excipio-Phi-Tau and Excipio-Tau-Sigma, are carried on its books.
