Background
Murder is a deathworld inhabited by an arachnoid race dubbed "Megarachnids" by the Emperors Children and Blood Angels Space Marines that encountered them. Though it's technical name is one-fourty-twenty (signifying that it was the twentieth world to be encountered by the one-hundred-and-fourtieth crusade), the Imperial Army regiment sent with the Blood Angels during the initial conflict with the Megarachnids called the world "Murder". Due to atmospheric turbulance, all landings on the planet became disorganized and individual shuttles easily became seperated from one another, forcing the Space Marines to fight in relatively small groups while searching for each other. One such group, lead by Emperors Children Captain Saul Tarvitz, discovered large rock-like structures that resembled dead trees. These "trees" had the bodies of several Blood Angels Space Marines impaled on many of the branches with a flying variant of the Megarachnids feasting upon the bodies. Upon destroying a few of the structures Captain Tarvitz discovered that they were what was causing the massive atmospheric turbulance and managed to destroy a number of the "trees", thus allowing a relief force of Emperors Children, Blood Angels, and newly-arrived-Luna Wolves to land and begin a full scale assault on the hostile natives. After a short, yet violent, campaign against the Megarachnids the forces of the Crusade were approached by vessels belonging to an advanced human society called the Interex. The Interex informed the War Master Horus, Primarch of the Luna Wolves and overall campaign leader, that the Megarachnids and the Interex had once met in a Massive war. Upon the defeat of the Megarachneds the Interex removed all of their intersteller travel capabilities and gave them the world of Urisarach, which was now known to the Imperium as Murder.
