Little is known of Inwit, save that Rogal Dorn spent at least a significant portion of his formative years there. He is known to have lived amongst the ice-tribes of the world during his adolescence and to have considered the sire of one of these tribes as his grandfather. The world is said to have supported ice-hives and to have an unconfirmed technology level; Dorn at one point referred to the Phalanx as something he had constructed, and claims to have been Emperor and warlord of the entire Inwit system.[2]
Several recruits of the Imperial Fists Legion came from the ice tribes of Inwit, including Captain Alexis Polux.[4]
