The Cursed Twins was a binary star system located at the edge of the Verdictus Frontier in the . Once an star system known as Gatus Prion, in the mid-40th Millennium the system was swept into an tendril of the , seemingly vanishing. Following this, the star system would rematerialize at least once every two centuries in seemingly random locations across the western edge of the Verdictus Frontier, its appearance heralded by a plethora of bizarre spatial and temporal anomalies. Records from Imperial voidfarers in the region throughout much of the 40th and 41st Millennium are rife with accounts of vox relays receiving strange feedback and being driven mad during rematerialization events, and of the Cursed Twins suddenly appearing to replace other star systems, only for those systems to return once the Twins had vanished, with their populations having no memory of the time in-between.
In 950.M41, whilst the Verdictus Frontier was embroiled in a vicious crusade, it was discovered that the Cursed Twins were being used as a major staging ground by the forces of , who believed it to be unassailable. Undaunted, however, Imperial forces soon drew up plans to drive Chaos forces from the system's worlds. In 959.M41, an opportunity to invade the system presented itself, and forces of the Imperium were able to drive out the archenemy, though many hundreds of starships were lost to the during the course of the operation, many never to return. The system then vanished again soon after.
However, in the wake of the and the opening of the in 999.M41, sightings of the Cursed Twins began to occur throughout Imperial space, no doubt an ill omen and a sign of the increasing influence of Chaos upon the material realm.
