==Overview==
A vast stellar mass of mostly uncharted stars and planets, the Galactic Core's worlds are known to be phenomenally rich in not only stars but rare resources, but the region is dangerously unpredictable. The region suffers from frequent ionic reefs, null-zones, supermassive black holes, extreme radiation, sentient nebulae, and nomadic singularities that make [[Warp]] travel hazardous. So dense is the makeup of stars in this region that many worlds of the Core never experience the darkness of night and are instead perpetually bombarded with a wide array of esoteric energies. Due to strange interactions between stellar bodies, these regions are subjected to massive gravitational forces.{{Cite thisMarker End}}
Despite the hazards of this region, many species have managed to thrive within its boundaries. Most notable amongst these is the [[Kin]] of the [[Leagues of Votann]]. The Core is home to the vast majority of the Leagues' civilization and all of their ancient [[Hold]]s. It is thanks to the [[Cloneskein]] biological templates of the ancient [[First Ancestor]]s that the Kin have been able to adapt themselves to survival in this harsh region. The Kin are not alone in this region, and large numbers of [[Orks]] as well as other lesser species have managed to establish themselves in the Galactic Core.{{Fn|5a}}
