A vital staging post and supply terminal for [[Imperial]] [[Expeditionary Fleet]]sAt one point a life-bearing world covered in oceans, it was important to millennia before the expansion dawn of the Imperium Paramar V was [[Great CrusadeDead World|reduced]]to an arid, radiation-swept wasteland scoured by solar winds. The planet's atmosphere is only breathable with artificial aid and the surface temperature varies wildly (due to its thin atmosphere and slow day/night cycle). It is believed by the Mechanicum that Paramar lies V's composition was artificially engineered at some point in almost direct conjunction between the distant past.{{Fn|1a}} The [[Isstvan Paramar System]] and , including Paramar V, is located in the northern reaches of the [[TerraSegmentum Solar]]. In an unusual trinary star system, Paramar had the particular advantages of possessing vast (if difficult to access) mineral wealth . Additionally, the system was located in an unusually stable [[Warp]]-synchronous location in space. Identified and entered into the Carta Imperialis by almost direct conjunction between the [[Rogue TraderIsstvan System]] and the [[Hel DeAniasieSol System]] in 803.M30Among other factors, it quickly became this made Paramar V a waypoint strategically crucial planet for [[Horus]] when he led his [[Horus Heresy|great rebellion against the Imperium's early expansion]].{{Fn|11a}}

An anomalous planet, whose structure has suggested to some scholars artificial engineering in its composition sometime in ==History==The Paramar System was first identified during the unknown and distant past[[Great Crusade]], Paramar V had clearly once been a fully life-sustaining world whose topology bore clear signs of having been covered recorded in oceansthe [[Carta Imperialis]] in '''803.[[M30]]''' by the [[Rogue Trader]] [[Hel DeAniasie]]. Not long afterwards, and whose vast untapped geological reserves of hydrocarbons indicate that it once was home to the system became a plethora of life. Reduced waypoint for many millennia the Crusade; it quickly expanded from an automated Mechanicum outpost to an arid, radiation-swept wasteland scoured by solar winds, with a thin oxygen atmosphere breathable only with artificial aid refuelling and wildly differing temperature extremes during its slow day/night cycleresupply depot for Imperial [[Expeditionary Fleet]]s, Paramar V nevertheless was a perfect choice allowing the Imperium to use as a military cache and supply base for expand from the Segmentum Solar into the Great Crusade[[Segmentum Obscurus]]. This was principally as Promethium could be refined there in In particular, the planet possessed vast quantities and untapped geological reserves of hydrocarbons, allowing for the installation of extensive [[Dead Worldpromethium]]refining operations, and the extensive systems of caves beneath the planet's extensive cave systems could be readily transformed surface were converted into armoured sub-surface bunkers for secure storage capable of securely storing gigatons of arms and munitions running into a multi-gigaton capacity.{{Fn|11a}}
