'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a [[Death World]] in the [[Qunitillus Quintillus System]] which is located just outside [[Segmentum Solar]]. During the [[Horus Heresy]], it became one of the many worlds fought over by the armies of the [[Imperium]] and [[Horus]].{{Fn|1}}
Traigo is [[wikipedia:Tidal locking|tidally locked]] to its sun and as a result one side of the world is a scorched, uninhabitable wasteland and the other half is a frozen unforgiving environment. In this grim and unholy place, the remnants of a [[Human]] population, descended from colonies that were created before disaster struck Traigo, survive in the Death World's frozen half; most rarely live past their teens. Due to this harsh environment, Traigo became a recruitment world for the [[Space Marine Legions]] during the [[Great Crusade]]. However, when the Horus Heresy began, this also made it a target for the Warmaster's forces. Though many of the [[Traitor Legion|Traitor]] [[Primarch]]s refused to recruit from anywhere save their own homeworlds, they sought to deny such a resource to the Imperium, when they arrived ''en masse'' in the Qunitillus System. Like all the worlds in its system, Traigo's final fate is unknown.{{Fn|1}}
