Posul was the homeworld to the Mortifactors Space Marine Chapter.
Posul was a Feral Night World, shrouded in perpetual darkness. It was the homeworld to the Mortifactors Space Marine Chapter and was inhabited by fierce nomadic tribes that were known to practice cannibalism, eating the flesh of their slain enemies and ritually gaining strength from this barbaric practice.[1]
These tribes were in constant combat with each other, creating a population suited to be Space Marines and excellent at fighting in low-light conditions. The priestly class of the natives were often recruited to the Mortifactors' Chaplaincy.[1]
Posul, as of 997.M41, had been destroyed by Hive Fleet Leviathan.[2]
