History
Inquisitor Kryptman led several specially equipped Deathwatch teams into Carpathia's caverns to capture a brood of Genestealers in a stasis field. The Genestealers were then unleashed on the Ork Empire of Octarius to fulfil Kryptman's plan of luring a tendril of Hive Fleet Leviathan into the Octarius Empire and so start a war between the two xenos species.[1]
In 997.M41 it was invaded by Hive Fleet Leviathan and its current fate is unknown.[2]
