==Government==
The Hive World of [[Scintilla]], situated in the Golgenna Reach, is the capital of the Calixis Sector.

The most powerful man in the Calixis Sector is officially [[Sector Lord|Sector Governor ]] [[Marius Hax]], who rules the sector in the name of the [[Adeptus Terra]] from the [[Lucid Palace]] on Scintilla. However, the [[Calixian Conclave]], led by Lord Inquisitor [[Caidin]], is the ultimate authority in the sector, a clandestine and all-powerful presence behind the visible emblems and figureheads of power. No one has the power to gainsay the word of the [[Inquisition]]. Other important Imperial servants are Lord Inquisitor [[Zerbe]] of the [[Tyrantine Cabal]], [[Ignato|Cardinal Cardianl]] [[Ignato]] of the [[Ecclesiarchy]], Lord Marshal [[Goreman]] of the [[Adeptus Arbites]], [[XiaoAstropath|Senior Astropath ]] [[Xiao]], and [[Canoness]] [[Goneril]] of the [[Adepta Sororitas]]. The power of the Adepta, however, is rivalled by the Great Houses, the noble families and corporations, which maintain a presence across the sector. Even the minor noble houses, those whose influence is limited to a single world, hold a great deal of power over ordinary citizens.{{Cite this}}
