History
During the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy, it served as one of the Space Wolves' Fief Worlds. As part of the Legion's fiefdom, Lucan provided the Space Wolves with Solar Auxilia Regiments that were patterned off of the Fenrisian Kaerls.[2]
Trivia
When the Space Wolves were introduced in White Dwarf Issue 93, their Fortress-Monastery is said to be sited on Lucan, rather than Fenris. Lucan's atmosphere is described as airless and its Fortress-Monastery as silent, without mirth.[3]
