Carceri Arcanum
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Carceri Arcanum is a mysterious underground region of the Blood Angels Fortress-Monastery, the Arx Angelicum.[1]
Ancient beyond reckoning, it is thought that it may be older than the very volcano the Arx Angelicum is built upon. None know who built the series of tunnels, which have bizarre and peculiar qualities, such as scrambling sensors and giving incorrect readings as to the tunnel networks' extent. However, deep at its centre is a fierce source of Warp energy that amplifies the powers of nearby Psykers. As a result, it is used as the headquarters of the Blood Angels' Librarius, and as a repository for dangerous artefacts such as the Haemonculus of Baal's skull.[1]
