Drooth II is part of the Realm of Ultramar, but like the entire Drooth System, it was once home to an advance pre-Imperial Human civilization. However the civilization fell to ruin during the Age of Strife, due to the use of radiological and biological weaponry. This left Drooth II the only world capable of sustaining life, but it became a hostile place. Now it was covered in sand-like mineral deserts, that released burning gases during its day cycle, and its air was unbreathable for unprotected Humans. Despite this, the world was the only place of worth, when the Drooth System was later added to the Realm of Ultramar. Drooth II became home to a research and listening outpost, known as Helgarn's Furnace, which was built around the remains of a space elevator built by the ancient human civilization. During the Horus Heresy, the System fell to the forces of Horus and Drooth II became the site of the Crusade of Iron's last battle.[1]
