Shaa-Dom was a Dark Eldar city of the Webway and satellite realm to Commorragh.[1]

History

The seat of power of El'uriaq, Shaa-Dom and its overlord planned to one day dominate the Dark City. However the supreme overlord of Commorragh, Asdrubael Vect, captured a human starship and sent it crashing into Shaa-Dom through a Webway Portal. The city was devastated by the initial explosion, but the real damage came when the ship's Warp Drives detonated and opened up a rift to the Warp. Now flooded with Daemons, Shaa-Dom was sealed away from the rest of Commorragh on Vect's personal orders.[1]

Recent History

Jain Zar battles Drazhar in Shaa-Dom[3a]

Shortly after the Dysjunction caused by the apotheosis of Yvraine, Drazhar was able to lure Jain Zar and a force of Saim-Hann through the Webway to Shaa-Dom where he ambushed and killed the Phoenix Lord and her assembled Howling Banshees – gifting their corpses to the Mandrakes of Aelindrach so that Jain Zar's armour could be forgotten.[3b]

In M42, Ahriman's apprentice Khethos Vorsch was able to shatter the stability of the Webway over the planet Mordian, bringing part of the realm of Shaa-Dom into realspace above the world.[2]
