Voluptua is a Shrine World of the Imperium, located in the The Periphery of the Calixis Sector.[1]
Overview
Not far from the main thrust of Waaagh! Grimtoof, the planet of Voluptua has weathered its share of Ork attacks. In fact, the Imperial forces under Lord Marshal Ghanzorik have reinforced the planet with some re-activated orbital stations to defend against additional assaults. However, the veneer of piety on Voluptua is quite thin and a number of hidden cults in the planet’s upper classes have secretly invited agents of the Ruinous Powers into their midst.[1]
A few Chaos warbands have used these cults to gain access to one of the orbital stations that is still mostly under construction. Inside the warrens of this outpost, mutants and cultists alike openly declare their allegiance to one or more of the Dark Apostles. Under threat from the Orks, the planetary population has turned a blind eye to many oddities and perversions, but if the Dark Apostles are left to build their covens unchecked, Voluptua is destined to become one of the first sites for an open Daemonic incursion.[1]
