Forge-World of Syvvar

In a far flung corner of our galaxy sits proudly the Mechanicus Forge world of Syvvar. Though a modest world, that does not produce as much machinery as its brother worlds. Syvvar has gained quite a reputation within the wider Adeptus Mechanicus.

The Forge world prides itself in its vast libraries and collections of old tomes. Having been founded upon a cache of ancient Age of Discovery databanks. Syvvar has worked tirelessly to document more and more knowledge from across the galaxy within their vast libraries. This has not always been applauded by the wider Imperium, with many inquisitors having come and investigated the planet for potential heretical research, though they were unable to ever find much of worth.

The Priests of Syvvar engage in an almost constant cycle of research, discovery and theological debate. Coming to new conclusions and documenting then almost daily. It is because of this that some whisper that the knowledge contained in the libraries of Syvvar is so immensely vast. That many of the currently alive techpriest have no idea what great mysteries are stored within it. Effectively causing much of the discovered knowledge to be temporarily lost, until a few interested techpriests investigate the deeper parts of the library. Although likely untrue, it is rumoured that even the lost design documents for the Ironstrider engine could be found somewhere deep within Syvvar.

The Priests and workers of Syvvar dress themselves in the traditional Adeptus Mechanicus red, but they forgo the white decorations and insignia of their Martian brethren. This is symbolic for their focus on the knowledge aspect of their faith. Having less of a focus on the industrial part that they claim the white of the Martian colour scheme symbolizes.

Although less industrious then there counterparts, the forge world of Syvvar’s production capacity can not be underestimated. It is estimated that a third of Syvvar’s planetary surface is still dedicated solely to the production of machinery and to the awakening of the machine spirit within that machinery.

The Forge-World was involved in the fighting on El'lyer: Syvvarite involvement

The Forge-World is allied with house Gardesse, located on the Knight world of Gravigne

Notable leaders:

Fabricator General: Alvari Secunda

Although her presence can be felt when communicating with many of Syvvar’s techpriests, Alvari herself has never left the Forge World since her ascendance to Fabricator General. Even for official meetings with the wider Adeptus Mechanus, Alvari has only ever sent envoys to represent her. Interestingly, the Fabricator General that ruled before her named Gaius Alvoyas, had a similar habit of never leaving the deepest parts of Syvvar’s great libraries. And thus only the highest ranking Techpriests ever get a chance to communicate with their Fabricator General.

The Forge-World is currently allied to the Knight-World of Burgund, ruled by house Gardesse

Fabricator Locum: Maren-66

How exactly Maren-66 rose from the rank of a lowly Tech-Priest enginseer to the Fabricator Locum is somewhat of a mystery. Rumours vary wildly from him being used as a puppet or spy by the wider Mechanicus, to him simply being recognized as a great diplomat and overseer by Alvari Secunda. Whatever story is true, Maren-66 has often taken on a representational role for Alvari, and has also been more keen to show his face to the rest of the forgeworld, as well as show unruly techpriests that Alvari still is very much in charge.

Explorator: Hamos-4

Hamos-4 has served the Syvvarite forgeworld for centuries, exploring and documenting far reaches of the galaxy as well as war-torn planets deep within Imperial space. They have gotten this position simply by showing great initiative and an insatiable curiosity for what lies beyond the reaches of known space. Hamos-4 has commanded many ships in their time, and although their missions have sometimes resulted in failure. They are a valued and relatively decently trusted member of the Explorators that serve the Forge World directly. Their most notable achievement was the discovery of a sizeable spacehulk in a far flung corner of the galaxy, wich after being investigated by a local chapter of Grey-Knights in Terminator armor  accompanied by a group of Techpriests. Yielded significant amounts of data as well as a great amount of valuable artifice.

Tech-Priest Dominus: Sagos Aventii

Sagos Aventii used to be a high ranking Priest within the Artisan order of Syvvar. Being known to successfully restore machinery that was otherwise deemed broken beyond repair to fully working condition, he garnered a reputation among other Tech Priests as a passionate but slightly distant worker. This changed when he was sent out to repair a Ironstrider Ballistarii of the 2nd cohort known as the Wisdom-Seekers. What should have been a safe and normal repair operation quickly turned into a dangerous ambush by Heretek priests, who sought the machinery of the Wisdom-Seekers. Although severely outnumbered, Sagos Aventii returned from the ensuing battle unharmed and with most of the Wisdom-Seekers surviving thanks to his leadership. Although his passion for repair was great, Sagos had found in the midst of battle an even greater passion, death. To see his magnificent machinery at work in the heat of battle moved Sagos greatly. And he applied for the position of Dominus almost immediately after the battle had been won. For his successful saving of the Knowledge-Seekers, he was granted them as his Cohort. He still serves to this day, with a level of fervor and joy that few other Techpriests posses. And though he is frowned upon and often convicted of heresy by his fellow priests, Sagos cares nought but for the thrill of battle.
