Kaloran is a temperate world just on the cold side of comfortable. Gravity is slightly higher than Terra norm and the climate tends toward windy days more often than not. The terrain is generally rocky with low grass, and conifers making up the majority of the large trees.
Caught in a perpetual autumn, the whole atmosphere tends toward a dour outlook, perfectly suited for its current masters who care not for beauty and spring.

Population

There were about 2 billion people on Kaloran, spread across the many cities and towns. Exact number are now impossible to estimate as most of the population were slaughtered in the recent invasion by Ork forces displaced by the Great Crusade. The cities have been reduced to ruins and the survivors, if any, forced into hiding, fighting a campaign they are doomed to lose.

The Ork numbers are likewise impossible to estimate, with their numbers constantly changing as various trbies leave for new wars and migrating ones arrive to try and fight for a patch of dirt.

History

Long isolated, the human settlement on Kaloran never managed to advance past a basic level of Industry, trading with various Empires who bothered to visit the backwater and unattractive planet. Without significant military forces the planets strategic insignificance and lack of natural wealth protected them from invasion until the recent Ork migration overwhelmed the farmer militias raised to defend the communities.
