Thaur is an Imperial cemetery world, located in the Askellon Sector of Segmentum Obscurus.
Overview
Thaur is an Imperial cemetery world, serving the dead of the Askellon Sector. The planet's vast tomb complexes are maintained by the Eulogus Askelline, a bureaucracy so vast that its members' beliefs can wildly differ — including heretical cults such as the xenos-worshipping Children of Inheritance, who believe that the planet was once inhabited by a vastly superior xenos race and that humanity are merely tending to it until their return.[1c] Thaur's currency is crafted from scrimshawed bones.[1b]
