Orphia is an Imperium Hive World.[1]
It was secretly infiltrated by one of Abaddon's powerful Lieutenants during the 13th Black Crusade. However, the Dark Angels were later drawn to Orphia as they tracked down clues for the Fallen and captured the Lieutenant during their search of the Hive World. The loss of this Lieutenant was a severe blow to the forces of Chaos and caused their attacks to falter, which allowed the Imperium time to increase their control of the beleaguered Caliban Sector.[1]
