===History===
During the [[Dark Age of Technology]], Pluto along with [[Uranus]] were the site of [[Warp]] gates that allowed for easy travel to and from the Sol System.{{Fn|44a}}
During the [[Horus Heresy]], the world and its accompanying moons was the site of a major [[Battle of Pluto|Alpha Legion attack]] in what became the first major engagement of the [[Solar War]].{{Fn|2}} Later in the final phase of the Solar War, Pluto was again a battleground as [[Sigismund]] of the [[Imperial Fists]] attempted to defend it against a massive [[Sons of Horus]] attack led by [[Horus Aximand]]. During the fighting, Pluto's moons were captured and had their guns turn on the loyalist forces while the moon of Kerberos was completely destroyed as part of a trap by Sigismund.{{Fn|44a}} Pluto was subsequently reclaimed by the Imperium during the [[Great Scouring]].{{Fn|5}}
During the last years of [[M41]] a vermillion-classified [[xenos]] threat was discovered amidst the Plutonian void-fortresses and subsequently eliminated by [[Adeptus Custodes]] forces.{{Fn|3}}
