Traoris is a world of the Imperium.[1a]
History
Considered a holy planet because the Emperor himself once defeated dark Cultists and Sorcerers there, Traoris was absorbed into the Imperium in 898.M30 during the Great Crusade. The planet was liberated from these dark rulers and eight large new cities were erected by the Imperial administration.[1a]
Traoris however was home to an artifact known as the Fulgurite, valuable to both traitors and loyalists alike. As a result during the Horus Heresy the planet was invaded by the Word Bearers under Erebus and Valdrekk Elias. There they fought for control of the artifact with the Salamanders under Artellus Numeon as well as the Cabal agent John Grammaticus. The planet's population was devastated by Chaos Cultists during the battle.[1b][1c]
Notable Locations
Following the compliance of Traoris, the Imperium erected eight cities on the planet, constructed near the greatest concentrations of useful ore.[1a]
