Ive Been reading Dark Heresy all morning ans Ive been thinking..How would You describe Your Home world By Using Your Home Town/Region/Country Where You grew up,,Example My Home World Would Be Temperate Forest But Would have harsh humid summers And During the winter It Would just be A frigid Ice Box And the terrain Would be Mountainous and Vast with Swamps And the World Would Fall under the class of feral reason being there are more animals then humans and my planet would have a vast underground mining As its main industry..The people would be proud with the have done with so little and my people would Fierce and independent And would Not Blink to give tiff's Of Soldiers to Serve in the ranks Of the Imperial Guard,..But the units would be small And they would most likely just train as scouts or spec op Due to our need to hunt the planet for food to sustain ourselves...And to all who want to know Where My region of the World i live in I live in the Back Woods Of the Appalachian Mountains of Southwest Virginia..I am a hill Billy..And All So my people Would Speak Corrupted Gothic..hahaha So tell me what Would your planet be like?

Wet. It rains all the god-damned time. It's raining now. We also have a river. Not many people very sparely populated and farms all over the shop. Mainly wet though.

Ios

A moderately small, but highly prosperous, craftworld with very little in the terms of aspect temples, it protects itself mainly by diplomacy with other, more prominent, craftworlds and by keeping a relative isolation with the exception of it's extensive trading fleet. Throughout the millennia, the craftworld has altered between a stance of high aggression and periods where diplomacy has reigned - at one point it even formed a formidable powerhouse where three smaller craftworlds flew as one under the mutually agreed leadership of a female Farseer from my craftworld, but alas the period of union perspired as she died.

It's people suffered periods of wars which saw the craftworld grow in dominance during the Craftwars to a height only Ulthwé now rival, but these wars lasted far too long and saw the craftworld impoverished as Farseer after Farseer set about to set their individual mark on the galaxy. Eventually it came to pass that one particular Farseer, attempting to follow in the footsteps of his father, overreached his means and subsequently lost his life, the conquests of his forebears and more besides.

Since the conquests and wars, the craftworld has suffered very little and escaped even when seemingly the entire galaxy was afire, a period of peace that the craftworld prides itself upon, especially as it was only interrupted by a very short rattling of arms when a portion of the craftworld wished for it's independence, which was granted it - something which has worked to both people's advantage since.

The people of the this craftworld are not given to the decadence to the same extent as might be found on other craftworlds, and have a mild temperament - something reflected in the craftworlds internal echo-system. One drawback of this largely guardian-based craftworld is that it has an extensive bureaucracy, which tend to create injustices simply, even though this should not happen.

By large, the people of the craftworld are not very nationalistic and even less spiritually inclined, they have nearly abandoned the dead gods of the Eldar pantheon and cancelled the tradition of a young king. It is unique in that it is the only craftworld in which a shard of Khaine does not reside. On the other hand, the people are creative and ingenious and have not lost the spark to manufacture or create new weaponry, inspite of the craftworlds insignificance.

The craftworld still serve extensively as it was originally intended, as a trading vessel, and trade both between Eldar craftworlds and various human or Tau planets, albeit with decidedly more stealth and subterfuge than with their racial kin. It is not unkown that the craftworld has offered services to the Empire of Man or the Tau Federation that they are unable to provide themselves, relocating smaller sections of populations, providing intel, or transporting goods at speeds the lesser races simply can not manage - legally or otherwise. Whatever their dealings with other races, the craftworld has never since the end of the Craftwars taken hostile actions, direct or indirect, against other craftworlds.

Where I was born 40C was cold. 50+ degrees C and 0% humidity were the orders of the day

Then I moved where 32C and 90-100% humidity were pretty common

Now I'm in England, where 90% of our days are overcast and it is usually chilly and wet.

Ah, where I was born... that'd be Puerto Santa Cruz, where the temperatures reach up to 35ºC on summer and -10ºC on winter.

The winds are so strong that my parents told me that they lifted me like a kite and only their grip on me prevented me to be turned into a small meat missile (in retrospective, that might make a funny image)

Thats is the truth. 40 degrees C are common here in Victoria spring and summer weather. Why else did we have black saturday?

Nah, now I live in Buenos Aires, the countrie's capital city, full of pansies who call 15ºC to be cold. And also call me insane for just wearing short-sleeved shirts on such days :\

The maille sounds good... how come my parent's didn't thought of that? xD
