A savage and barren wasteland, its people are bestial but fierce fighters.{{Fn|1}}
== History ==
Thought to have once been an advanced outpost of mankind, Borea was likely one of many worlds lost during the [[Age of Strife]]. During this time, its people fell to [[chaos]], reducing them to little more than wild beasts who slept in their own filth and rutted like dogs. However, remnants of their technology, also tainted by the [[Warp]], remained: such as golden torc necklaces, which every adult male wore.{{Fn|1}}
In 019.[[M41]], Pontious [[Pontius Glaw]], the seventh son of [[House Glaw ]] of the [[Imperium]], was on [[Quintius VIII ]] purchasing combatants for his infamously brutal "pit games" when he met a particularly deadly fighter named [[Aaa ]] who was captured from Borea. Pleading for the [[Noble House|noble ]] to purchase him, he offered his golden torc to Pontius, who accepted it and quickly became tainted by the [[Warp]]. This gave rise to his fall into [[heresy]], leading to his eternal infamy as one of the most known blasphemers in the Imperium of Man's already dark history.{{Fn|1}}
== Current Conditions ==
Once a modern planet in the [[Imperium of Man]]'s golden era, barely even a shadow of its former glory remains. Its lands are desolate and inhabited by monstrous creatures and fearsome, savage humans who live in tribal groups. Imperial [[Noble House|nobles ]] sometimes have prizefighters culled from Borea's population.{{Fn|1}}
