'''Nostramo''' was the [[Adeptus Astartes Homeworld|homeworld]] of the [[Night Lords]] [[Space Marine Legion]] until [[Night Haunter]] destroyed it.{{Fn|1}}
==Trivia==
As many names in the background of the [[Night Lords]] links to the writer [[Wikipedia:Joseph Conrad|Joseph Conrad]], Nostramo is probably a reference to [[Wikipedia:Nostromo|Nostromo]], a supposedly incorruptible anti-hero who is killed when he succumbs to his thirst for power.
The name is also used as the name for the ship in the science-fiction horror film ''[[Wikipedia:Alien (film)|Alien]]'', slightly based upon another of Conrad's novels.
