Heraldor was chief planet of the Aegis Sector and was known to be wealthy thanks to its fertile soil at the feet of immense volcanoes which were mined by legions of slave-workers. Its decadent and cruel hierarchs dwelt in labyrinthine hive cities buried deep beneath the surface.[1]
Before the time of the Imperium they were known as slavers and marauders, clashing with Thramas and Gulgorahd and allied with the clan-lords of Memlock. This continued until the Night Lords savaged the planet in the Great Crusade, which subdued the world and converted it into an Agri-World whose fields were toiled by prisoners. It remained part of the Imperium until the Horus Heresy where the hateful population sided with Horus after being bribed. By the end of the Heresy Heraldor's rulers met their end at the hands of a loyalist reclamation force led by the Ultramarines and Thramassi Nightwatch after a 18 week siege that wiped out its population.[1]
