History
Dorian Prime was once a planet of the Imperium. Their metalworking ability was beyond compare in the Galaxy.[1]
However, it was lost for a millennium behind the veil of a vast Warp Storm, and the storm's bizarre gravitational effects stunted and malformed the planet's citizens.[1]
When the Warp Storm abated, the Blood Ravens led a research expedition to the planet. During this expedition, Yupres Zhaphel of the Order Psykana recovered a Force Axe that he went on to use as his main Force Weapon. However, the planet was lost to the Warp again before its resources could be properly exploited by the Chapter.[1]
Trivia
Notes
- The planet Dorian Prime could be connected to the Dorian Corsairs of Segmentum Obscurus.[2]
