The planet was presumably named after the adopted father of [[Roboute Guilliman]], [[Konor Guilliman]]. Originally a quasi-[[Forge World]], at the time of the [[Great Crusade]] Konor was one of the key worlds of Ultramar alongside places like [[Macragge]], [[Armatura]], [[Iax]], and [[Calth]]. Alongside Calth, Konor was the primary shipbuilder of Ultramar, and such was its important that one of the four [[Tetrarch of Ultramar|Tetrarchs of Ultramar]] was from the planet. However, while its moon of [[Gantz]] was a fully-fledged Forge World, Konor was not granted such honor, the distinction mainly due to politics as [[Mars]] saw the planet as subservient to Ultramar and not the [[Mechanicum]]. As a result of this, tensions arose between the Tech-Priest factions of Konor and during the [[Battle of Calth]], some questioned if they should side with [[Warmaster]] [[Horus]]. This led to a long delay in reinforcements from Konor to aid the [[Ultramarines]] battling the [[Word Bearers]]. However, in the end, Konor remained true to [[Guilliman]] and sent reinforcements.{{Fn|3}}
Konor was reclassified as a full Forge World after the Heresy, but at some point was degraded to a mere Research Station.{{Fn|3}}. Following the rebirth of Guilliman and the reorganization of the Realm of Ultramar, Konor was made the headquarters of the northern reaches. It is overseen by [[Tetrarch of Ultramar|Tetrarch]] [[Severus Agemman]].{{Fn|4}}
