Thoth is an Imperial world[1] in the Segmentum Pacificus.[2]
History
It was discovered during the Macharian Crusade and the Imperium fought to liberate the Human populated Desert World,[2] from the Chaos-worshiping Witches of Thoth.[3] The Tallarn Desert Raiders 3rd regiment, were especially chosen to fight in the desert environment and were led by Captain Al'rahem. He later used Thoth's native N'go tribesmen to conducted a guerrilla campaign against the Seercult.[2]
During the battle, a landing craft carrying Captain Al'rahem and a portion of the Tallarn 3rd malfunctioned and crashed into territory held by the Witches of Thoth. The Regiment's survivors then fought their way[3] back to safety,[1] as the Captain led a rearguard against the Seercult.[3] The Inquisition soon afterwards declared Thoth Amundi Heretica and had the world cleansed of all life by virus bombs.[2]
Before this occurred, Al'Rahem campaigned for the N'go to be spared due to the aid they provided, and his requests were granted. The N'go were then evacuated from their Homeworld, along with genetic samples of Thoth's flora and fauna. After the virus bombing, the N'go were returned to the world and to this day, Thoth is ruled by the Captain's descendants, the Lords Al'Rahem.[1]
