Ag'Ni is a Death World and weapon test site of the Velk'Han Sept in the Jericho Reach.[1]
Though the planet appeared to be ideally suited for colonisation, the first T'au on its surface learned it was home to aggressive microbial life forms, as they died and their bodies were broken down. The leadership of the Velk’Han Sept has since declared that Ag’Ni should be purged of all life so that it can be reseeded by Earth Caste geo-engineering cadres. This process is still underway, and the planet has come to be used as a weapons testing ground by the Fire Caste, who have been given free reign to test the most destructive of devices — including Seismic Discontinuity Charges and Mass Yield Pulse Plasma Warheads — without fear of unleashing unwanted levels of destruction.[1]
