'''House Helmawr''' was the ruling [[Noble House]] of the planet [[Necromunda (planet)|Necromunda]] until their recent [[fall|Fallen House|fall]] to [[House Aranthus]] at the end of the 41st Millenium.
Also called the Ruling House, [[Imperial House]], Royal House of Necromunda, Guardians of all Necromunda or Lords of the Spire, they used a hereditary system of succession, with the leader of the house (styled Imperial Commander Lord Helmawr, Adeptus of the Imperium of Man, and Guardian of Necromunda in the Holy Name of the [[Emperor of Mankind|Undying Emperor]]) serving as the [[Planetary Governor]] of the planet, in effect personifying Necromunda to the Imperium and representing the Imperium to the inhabitants of Necromunda. Occupying the very top of the feudal Necromundan hierarchy, the [[Adeptus Terra]] left him to do as he pleased so long as he fulfilled his feudal obligations to the Imperium and maintained the planet's production capacity.{{Fn|1a}}{{Fn|2a}}{{Fn|2b}}{{Fn|3}}{{Fn|4}}
