History

Signus Prime is the main planet of the Signus Cluster, a tri-star system of seven Hive Worlds and fifteen moons. Once a major industrial center, the System of Signus fell prey to the agents of Chaos during the dark days of the Horus Heresy. It became a Realm of Chaos, a system of Daemon Worlds, and fell under the rule of Kyriss the Perverse, Greater Daemon of Slaanesh. Kyriss raised for itself a vast palace on Signus Prime, and its daemonic horde rampaged across the system, utterly destroying hundreds of years of civilization and annihilating several planets. The entire populace was either butchered, enslaved, or corrupted, and all hope fled its inhabitants. Deliverance was to come, ironically, in the form of Sanguinius and the Blood Angels Legion of Space Marines, sent by the Warmaster Horus to what was supposed to be their doom.[1a]

The Battle of Signus Prime

During the Horus Heresy, Signus Prime was the site of an important battle between the Blood Angels and the daemonic armies of Ka'Bandha[1]
