New Phaeton is a majestic world, the crown jewel of the Charon Reach. Its capital hive, Auebensheim, is home to teeming masses of humanity at the base to the opulent mansions of the sub-sector nobles. The world's leading export for the Imperium is paperwork, as adepts count the tithes of the Reach and ensure the Emperor's dues are delivered on time.
Not all is as it seems, though. 40 millenia ago, at the tail end of the Heresy, a small remnant of the traitors hid their weapons and stores deep underground. There they activated their Sus-an Membranes and slept. Eventually New Phaeton was reclaimed and the hives built. In time, the gangs of the underhive dug down to the warband's tomb. What few weapons they could use they stole, and the still, armored giants became gods to those poor wretches.
Now they are awake.
