Black Planet

The Black Planet is a Daemon World located in the Eye of Terror. The home of the Black Prince, a Daemon Prince of Slaanesh, it is an orb so dark one may easily mistake it for a black hole. It was created by Slaanesh in a particularly somber and dour mood, the psychic murmur coalescing in excessive energies to a perfect form: a perfectly round and black Daemon World of total darkness, from whence no sense can escape.

Its strange landscape, although not as alluring as Slaanesh’s gilded palaces of opulence, nevertheless holds a whispered attention among the Prince’s servants. For there are those among their number who, in their quest for pleasure-pain, will willingly subject themselves to the Black Planet’s essence of sensory deprivation, savouring the pleasure of the excruciating agony of withdrawal only a sensory maniac feels.

As one approaches the planetoid, slowly all sense begins to dissipate. Fingers become numb, sound dies out and sight becomes muddy. Perfectly round, its only landmark is the palace of the Black Prince, a vast and sprawling place where the stifling energies are so impenetrable that approach is impossible unless the Black Prince wishes otherwise.

Beneath the thick, numbing mist lie the bodies of supplicants and celebrants, squirming in blissful agony among the bones of their predecessors. For those that make the dark pilgrimage seldom wish, or are able to, return. And unknown to all, the black mist bleeds into their very brains and souls, turning those who tarry too long into empty husks, soulless, memoryless, wantless and blissful.
