'''Nemeton''' is an [[Ocean World]] and the homeworld of the [[Emperor's Spears]] [[Space Marine]] [[Chapter]].{{Fn|2}}{{Fn|3b}} It is the only planet of the [[Ophion System]]{{Fn|3a}}{{Fn|3b}}; as a result, the Ophion System is sometimes called the Nemeton System.{{Fn|2}} 

Nemeton is a planet covered in enormous oceans, with small forested and mountainous landmasses scattered in between. Rainfall is common, and a temperate to nearly tropical temperature is maintained.{{Fn|1}}  A well-defended world, a mighty minefield protects approaches to the planet, while many of the rocks that make up Nemeton’s rings have been turned into weapons platforms capable of bombarding attackers with waves of deadly [[torpedo]]es. Further defenses come from the [[Tech-Priests]] of [[Bellona (Moon)|Bellona]], a [[forge]]-moon in the Nemeton system. The Emperor’s Spears have formed close links with Bellona, and together they defend the [[Elara's Veil]] region of space.{{Fn|2}}

==Society==The population of Nemeton is divided into 12 primitive tribes which worship the rain, believing it to be a gift from Elara's Veil, which is visible in the night sky.{{Fn|1}} The relationship between the Chapter and Nemeton’s people is very different from that of most Space Marine Chapters and their recruiting stock. The tribes see the Space Marines as the spirits of lost children, taking their young before their time and leaving them as ghosts to be mourned.{{Fn|2}}

===Known Clans of Nemeton include:===*'''Kavalei''' - The "Clan of Kings", the largest and most powerful clan on Nemeton. Most of the Emperor's Spears are recruited from the Kavalei.{{Fn|33c}}*'''Arakanii''' - Coastal clan known for scavenging the dead after battle. Rumors of cannibalism also persist.{{Fn|33c}}*'''Novontei''' - Nomadic clan known as mercenaries and druids.{{Fn|33c}}*'''Vargantes''' - Small northern clan.{{Fn|33c}}
