Geography
A deadly jungle planet colonized only to exploit its rich mineral resources.
Physics
Type Large iron/silicate
Mass 2.50 x 1025 kg
Density 5.75 g/cm3
Composition 33.2% iron, 22.0% silicon, 21.4% magnesium, 20.7% oxygen, 2.6% other metals, trace other elements - mineral resources classed as Beta-plus, including adamantite and jethryk
Gravimetry
Gravity 12.19 m/s2
Escape Velocity 18.11 km/s
Rotation Period 9.03 hours
Axis Tilt 9.21 °
Atmosphere
Type Dense toxic
Pressure 183.52 kPa
Composition 50% nitrogen, 20% argon, 15.5% oxygen, 14.5% carbon dioxide, trace other gases - biochemical hazards very high
Population
110 million in mostly independent, largely subterranean cities.
History
Colonization of Empusa was initially ruled out by the pre-Imperial settlers, as the ecology of the planet was dominated by active, predatory, and deadly poisonous flora. This 'screaming jungle' seemed less of a danger when the rich mineral wealth below was surveyed, and several attempts were made to build on the planet, before orbital weaponry was used to burn away a large enough patch of ground to allow miners to dig in. These initial beachheads were expanded out into fortified cities ringed with largely impregnable walls and incendiary fields, and down into the crust following seams of adamantium ores and others valuable minerals.
Most of the cities on Empusa are independent of each other, as travel on the surface requires armoured vehicles to avoid the lethal plant life. This self-sufficiency did them little good when the traitor legions took the planet for their own purposes.
