Geographic Overview
There are three main landmasses on Þungur Metallikos. Most human life is located on the two main continent, Þungur Metallikos Prime and Þungur Metallikos Secundus, separated by a wide straight known simply as Hells Gap. The bulk of the sub-continents of Þungur Metallikos Prime and Secundus are covered in ash wastes, the aftereffects of many millennia of industrial pollution. Several hive cities house the planet's human population and the industry of Þungur Metallikos; these include Diabolisgaard on Þungur Metallikos Prime and Hivernigrad and Tejas Secundus on Þungur Metallikos Secundus. West of Þungur Metallikos Prime lies the Island of Tempestora Infernus and Hive Varingaheim, the location of the Planetary Governors Palace and the seat of Imperial power on Þungur Metallikos.
To the south of Hells Gap and east of Tejas Secundus are the Ash Wastes, which are home to the penal colony of Iron Bay and its extensive mining and resource gathering industries that support the hive cities' factories. This is an extremely arid region, which has been strip-mined far beyond the point that it can maintain any living ecosystem.
To the south of Iron Bay lies the ice-covered Deadzone. The polluted ice here is melted and heavily purified to provide a source of drinking water to the inhabitants of the Þungur Metallikos hive cities.
The Ash Wastes
The Ash Wastes are located in the area surrounding Iron Bay. It is the location of many of the ore mines that supply the main settled Þungur Metallikos regions with resources in order to create the industry and weapons the world needs to survive.
The vast Straya Rock Mountains cover most of the northern region of the Ash Wastes. They are burning, volcanic mountains where not a breath of air stirs. It is from here that the lava River Hera springs, which is dammed by the Mora Novis Hydro-Electric Dam which provides power to the Ash Wastes' mining operations. The dam also splits the river into two. There is a pass through the Straya Rock range, named the Arevor Creek Canyon, which used to be a fast-flowing river but has since dried up and turned into a hot desert-like pass whose heat and other hazards can kill even the best prepared travelers.
The Obcasus Tar Pits are another region of inhospitable terrain, although these pits have been mined for thousands of years and the ore is used in the industrial processes of the main Þungur Metallikos continents.
Another river is the Cerebus River which goes around the Obcasus Tar Pits and past the Cerebus River Refinery and the Cerebus River Mineral Storage Facility and exits into the Acid Sea via the Iron Bay Penal Colony.
The sea itself also contains the Vapora Oil Platform, vital for the functioning of the weapons manufacturers on the mainland. The main port is named the Ember Harbour and is home to hundreds of miles of docks and rigging equipment, designed to transport the minerals excavated and refined in the Ash Wastes to Manufactorum NH-PEP:758-H6.
The Deadzone
The Deadzone is the south most region on the planet. It contains one of the two main water processing plants, and this is broken down into the Avalan Water Processing Plant and the minor Thaumus River Water Processing Plant. The water is then pumped through overland pipes to the Neptune Channel Water Pumping Station which stores and then pumps water through the undersea pipes to both Hive Varingaheim and Hive Tejas Secundus. There is also the Cendis Oil Drilling Station which supplies oil to Iron Bay. The Spirans Gamma Oil Platform also provides oil and is located off the north west coast of the Deadzone. Another oil producing site is the Ferrus Point Oil Drilling Station, located far to the east. Finally, there is the Zardur Ice Station Defense Fortress which protects the entire region from orbital attacks and provides a vital bastion of strength to the defenders of the region.
Population
Unknown number, estimated at least fifteen billion souls.
History
Þungur Metallikos is an Imperial Hive World located 15,000 light years to the galactic east in the Australis Ultima Sector.
The world of Þungur Metallikos is the only planet in the Waacos star system and itis the industrial hub of both the Centrumeh Sub-Sector and the greater region of the surrounding Australis UIltima Sector. Many worlds within a several light-year radius of Þungur Metallikos rely on it for its large industrial output.
Thousands of standard years of industrial output has reduced the surface of Þungur Metallikos to barren wastelands and polluted oceans; humans can only survive within the artificial environment of the world's hive cities (the massive arcology-like structures that stand several kilometres tall) and Imperial military and Mechanicum facilities. Food must be imported from off-planet, and clean air and water are precious commodities.
