| Location in Segmentum Pacificus[2a] |
Precipice is a space station in Segmentum Pacificus[2a] that has been cobbled together from the wreckage of numerous ships that have tried to forcibly claim a nearby Blackstone Fortress.[2b]
Overview
Precipice is a hulking conglomeration of flotsam primarily composed of the dismantled and reamalgamated ships of those foolhardy explorers who search the Seventh Blackstone Fortress.[3] It is home to various Human, Abhuman and Xenos scavengers and serves as a waypoint for those looking to venture into the Blackstone Fortress.[1] Some of those who venture into the blackstone fortress return with their grip on sanity irrevocably eroded, believing themselves still trapped, their minds unable to escape the echoing halls – causing them to lash out violently.[3]
