Au'Taal is a Tau sept established during the Second Sphere of Expansion.[4]
Au'taal Prime is a resort planet and is well known as a verdant and beautiful world, where only honoured heroes can retire,[1a] and is famous for its exotic fruits that are used when trading with other races.[3]
There are defensive platforms in the orbital space of this planet that bristle with weapon systems, because the Tau take the protection of their brave elders very seriously.[2] Tau from this sept are known for their easygoing attitude toward their duty to the empire, and other Tau often regard them as lazy,[4] despite or perhaps because of this attitude the aircraft of Sept Au'taal are nevertheless renowned for their resilience in battle.[5]
