Faldon Kise is located in the Malfian Sub-Sector, Calixis Sector, close to the Halo Stars.[2] A marginalized world accessible only by turbulent warp routes, its world has rapidly decayed and turned inward. The bulk of people live a barbaric existence in a vast shanty city amid ruins. A violent culture of ritual murder for wealth and status has arisen with death cults and doomsday prophets rife on the planet's surface.[1a]
Overview
The few inhabitants of the primitive frontier world are descendants of children of the void, who were suspended as punishment for their crimes on the planet. They live in three small settlements that cluster around an automated monitoring station which marks the outer border of the Imperium. The population is considered to be unreliable, degenerate and wild, and mutations are prevalent in the population. The planet's surface is covered by several jungles.

Indigenous Wildlife
The most well-known indigenous species in the jungles of Faldon Kise are the Gar-keelers. These are giant porcupines whose tough quills are used by the inhabitants of the planet as a climbing aid. Once the creature is slain, the spines are removed and their base is bevelled into a crude handle, leaving the sharp tip in place. Of course such a manufact can be used also in hand-to-hand combat if the need arises.[1b]
