16: A Necromundan Day | Warhammer 40K Lore

from Laying Down The Lore: 40K · host Laying Down The Lore

What is life like on an Imperium World? To answer this question we focus on the storied world of Necromunda. We take a look at the planet as a whole before concentrating on the “capital” of the Palatine Hive. We look at the social hierarchy and the lives of the planet’s rulering power, House Helmwar. We then descend through the hive exploring the lives of the citizens be they from the Great Houses, Clan Houses or the ever-present Mercator guilds. At each level of society we discuss the responsibilities expected (imposed) on them and how the society provides for them. We close out with a list of threats and dangers that arise from such a society and how that is multiplied across the stagnant Imperium of man.⁠⁠Show notes⁠ ⁠Chat with us on Discord⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠Merchandise⁠⁠⁠Quartermaster ⁠
