This article includes as a source one the three Black Library novels reissued under the now-defunct Heretic Tomes banner (Farseer, Pawns of Chaos, Space Marine) which, per the Publication Disclaimer, contained material considered outdated or inconsistent with established background lore. The banner has not appeared since 2016, leaving the status of these works uncertain – except for Space Marine whose description now labels it a “curiosity.”

Sigmatus is a Feudal World^[1a] in the Segmentum Obscurus, located on the fringes of The Eye of Terror. It has three main continents and is made up of five principal nations. The worlds main religion was a form of worship of Tzeentch until a expeditionary force from The Imperium was stranded on the planet. Centuries later the descendants of the Imperials are in the midst of a global civil war where the last of the native nations is in the process of being conquered and the resisting natives are preparing to summon the demon Sathorael as a last gambit to win the conflict. ^[1b]
