The '''Nephilim Sector''' is a [[Sector]] of the [[Imperium]].{{Fn|1}}

It is most notable for being the site of the discovery of the [[STC]] to the [[Nephilim Jetfighter]], which was named after the Sector itself.{{Fn|1}}
===History===In the wake of the [[Great Rift]]'s creation, the [[Imperium]] noted that it did not recive any distress calls from its worlds in the [[Sector]]. Suspicious of what this could mean, [[Lord Commander]] [[Guilliman]] dispatched the [[Indomitus Crusade]]'s [[Battle Group Kallides (Fleet Primus)|Battle Group Kallides]] to investigate. What they found changed the galaxy forever, as they discovered that the [[Warp]] had been stilled within a region of the Nephilim Sector. Though they learned that both the engine's of the Battlegroup's warships and its [[Psykers]] struggled to operate as a result, the collapse of their [[Gellar Fields]] did not cause [[Daemon]]s to materialize either. A grave draw back, however, was that all the [[Human]]s of the Battlegroup - save for its [[Adepta Sororitas]] - fell victim to a deep lethargy. Worse still, the Imperial worlds they visited stood empty, devoid of any of its citizens. As a result, that region of the Sector became known to the Crusade fleet as the [[Pariah Nexus]].{{Fn|2}}
The mystery was finally solved on [[Mesmoch]], when a group of [[Battle Group Kallides (Fleet Primus)|Battle Group Kallides]]' [[Ultramarines]] discovered a [[Necron]] [[pylon]] created from [[Blackstone]].{{Fn|2}}{{Fn|5a}} The region was subsequently invaded by the Imperium in the [[War in the Pariah Nexus]].{{Fn|2}}
