Baal - Notable Locations: The deserts of Baal have a few known geographic locations, including the following:Arx Angelicum - The Arx Angelicum is the fortress-monastery of the Blood Angels located upon Baal.Bloodwise MountsDemitian BadlandsGolden Sarcophagus - The tomb of the Primarch Sanguinius. The Golden Sarcophagus is a large, spherical structure on Baal that is slightly translucent with golden light emanating from it. This sarcophagus is where Sanguinius was laid to rest after his death at the hands of the Arch-traitor Horus during the Siege of Terra. During the attack on the Blood Angels' fortress-monastery by the rabid Astartes mutants known as the Bloodfiends, the Blood Angels and their Successor Chapters such as the Flesh Tearers, Blood Drinkers, Blood Swords, and Angels Sanguine, stood together to defend the Holy Sepulchre, which housed the Golden Sarcophagus. As the fight became dire, the largest and most formidable of the Bloodfiends made its way through the ranks of Space Marines, even eluding Chapter Masters Dante and Gabriel Seth to reach the sarcophagus. After throwing aside the last line of defence, including Chaplain Argastes and Chief Librarian Mephiston, this "Alpha" Bloodfiend faced Sergeant Rafen in single combat. The Bloodfiend seemed unstoppable even after Rafen stabbed his Combat Knife into its heart, but Mephiston tossed his Force Sword, Vitarus, to Rafen. Even though Rafen was unable to infuse the blade with psychic powers, it was still a formidable physical weapon. Rafen used it to pierce the Alpha Bloodfiend's secondary heart, bringing it down within a hand's reach of despoiling the sarcophagus.Ruberica (Heart of Baal) - Also known as the "Heart of Baal," Ruberica is a deep underground cavern and a place considered sacred by the people of the planet. The cavern is lined with tall, hexagonal pillars of pure bloodstone and it is a place of great psychic resonance. The cavern seems to have a mind or intelligence of its own, and is known to repair itself when damaged through some unknown means.Skyfall - Skyfall is a planetoid-sized Ultrus-scale starport, orbital fleet dock, shipyard and defensive void station of the Blood Angels Chapter that is located within the Baal System in orbit of Baal. Its surface is etched with a star map of the Imperium. The statue of an angel twenty miles tall, with a sword another seven miles long held aloft above its head, stands atop the starport. Skyfall is under the command of the Blood Angels' eighth captain, who is known as the "Lord of Skyfall," and it has undergone a number of major renovations during the Era Indomitus. This was done to both repair the immense damage caused by the Tyranid invasion of the Baal System during the Devastation of Baal, and to transform Skyfall into a hub for starships based in and transiting through the star system. Commander Dante intends for the Baal System to become the capital of the Imperium Nihilus since he was named as the regent of the Dark Imperium by Roboute Guilliman. Skyfall now reflects that new role for the Blood Angels, as the starport has been transformed so that thousands of orbital jetties now project from it. These allow Skyfall to service a massive number of starships simultaneously and also serve as the base of operations for the Blood Angels' newly-raised Fleet Nihilus armada. Thousands of Adeptus Mechanicus Tech-priests drawn from numerous Forge Worlds of the Dark Imperium populate it. Their primary purpose is to repair and refuel the starships docked there. Skyfall also possesses the capacity to construct new Imperial warships, activity that is also overseen by the Mechanicus' Tech-adepts. The Blood Angels' own battle barge Baal's Fury was among the vessels constructed in the orbital docks of Skyfall.Verdis ElysiaWaste of Enod
