Stalinvast was subject to a [[Genestealer]] infestation which was cleared out, at a vast expense of lives, by [[Inquisitor]] [[Harq Obispal]]. He was given a free reign in this matter by planetary governor Lord Voronov-Vaux, himself suffering from a minor hereditary mutation, and was in no position to argue with a member of the Inquisition. The millions of deaths on Stalinvast also served to engergize and generate the Hydra, a bizarre [[Chaos]] manifestation supposedly designed to help mankind in their battle with Chaos. Obispal was unknowingly being watched by the [[Ordo Malleus]] Inquisitor [[Jaq Draco]], who subsequently ordered [[Exterminatus]] upon Stalinvast, but then rescinded the order upon learning that the Hydra had withdrawn from the world. However the [[Astropath]], [[Moma Parsheen]], sent a message reordering the destruction as vengeance for the suffering she had undergone during her service, saying that it was "better off destroyed". Draco himself was later considered heretical by his order for the unsanctioned action. The [[Eldar]] later used the dead world as the site for an alien ritual due to the calamity which had befallen it.
