ENCYCLOPAEDIA CALIXIA
Published on 08 August 2012 - 15:16:47

The Inquisitor’s Handbook contains numerous tidbits of information useful in fleshing out the worlds of the Calixis Sector. However, due to the IH’s lack of an Index, I’ve always hated trying to look up specific references- you can drive yourself crazy trying to find a passing mention to this or that planet. So, I decided to use a recent ‘staycation’ to compose a planetary index of my own. When I was done with the IH, I decided to comb through (most of) the rest of the DH books as well.

Here is the result of my little Obsessive-Compulsive endeavor. I’ve limited the listings to references that contain some kind of substantive information (based on my own fairly arbitrary standards), and not every passing mention of a particular planet. For example, the entry for Reclaimators in the IH mentions that they exist on most hive worlds like Scintilla- not exactly a revelation, so I didn’t include that reference. However, it goes on to say that Reclaimators hold a special place in society in Fenksworld’s Volg Hive, so that mention is included. I can’t guarantee that I’ve caught every relevant reference (I’m only mildly Obsessive-Compulsive, after all…), but I hope that this Index proves useful to my fellow GMs.

The sources referenced are: the Dark Heresy Core Rulebook (DHRB), the Dark Heresy Gamemaster’s Screen (DH GM’s Screen), The Inquisitor’s Handbook (IH), Disciples of the Dark Gods (DotDG), Creatures Anathema (CA), The Radical’s Handbook (RH), Ascension (A), Blood of Martyrs (BoM), The Book of Justice (BoJ), Purge the Unclean (PtU), Tattered Fates (TF), Damned Cities (DC), Dead Stars (DS), and Black Sepulchre (BS). If someone wants to add updates from Daemonhunter, the last two books of the Apostasy Gambit, and/or The Lathe Worlds, please feel free- I’m not sure when I’ll be able to get around to it myself.

 This is simply awesome, I thank you for this work you've done. I'll make sure to use it as much as I can.

Love your Emperor, Avoid Heresy!

Do youuu hear the voices tooo?

Quoted from a different thread:

Lightbringer said:

Back in the day, Black Industries opened up the Calixis Sector for fans to write in with suggestions for individual worlds.



That was probably one of the coolest things I liked about DH during BI's brief control of the product. I never made anything myself, but when I first discovered it I loved going through everything that people had written about the planets and reading it for inspiration.

Might go looking for some of that right now. Are most of them up on the Wiki now?
 

 


They're certainly around on the internet. Lexicanum seems to have most of them, though they jumble up aspects of Reth & Percipre on the same entry. This website contains a lot of the collated data. Don't quote me definitively on this, but the fan made ones that BI approved are, as near as I can tell, Belacane, Hilarion, Karrick (I think), Percipre, Reth, and Siculi. I wrote Reth and Belacane, but I think Percipre is by far the best fan made entry.

I agree with you, the fan interaction with writing up worlds was a massive draw for me, too. It's a shame that the project died a bit of a death.

FFG have followed a different approach, with sector maps that are far more "open," and a tendency to add new, previously unmentioned worlds to the Calixis Sector map. With regions like the Koronus Expanse and the Jericho Reach, this approach makes sense, as they are, to a degree, unexplored and maps are subject to revision.

However, I do miss the inclusiveness of the old approach. I think the Calixis Sector has a lot of potential for expansion, and I would love to see more background material for its various worlds, whether fan written or not.

Many people have suggested that the perfect way to do a "Sector" background is to have a mix of FFG-made and fan-made worlds in the same Sector. FFG identify certain worlds which will always be "theirs," certain worlds which will always be "untouched," (ie ones which won't be developed, so GMs can always have them as "their" worlds) and open up the rest for competitive fan entries edited by FFG staff. In this way you have the best of all approaches - you draw the fans in, you leave room for FFG to expand their setting, and you keep GMs happy.

I don't know how things are currently going with the Anargo Sector Project, a massive fan effort at constructing an entire Imperial Sector, but if you like this worldbuilding stuff, that might be worth a look, too.
 

 

So, why haven't we been doing this, here on the FFG Forums? I'm sure lots of GMs have come up with cool descriptions of worlds that can be very helpful to others (speaking for myself, I find world-creating to be the most time-consuming aspect of GMing DH). Let's post 'em! I'll try to get my hand-written notes typed up and posted, starting with Palinurus Rhys; anyone else is welcome to post their own contributions to 'fleshing out' the Calixis Sector here.

EDIT: Lightbringer's link to the BL fan-created stuff dropped out of the quote above, so I'll repeat it here.

Brilliant work!

Did you actually read all the books, or have you purchased them in PDF format and used search?

Thanks! I did it the old-fashioned way- which is why the first update is taking so long…
