Kri-os

Overview
Kri-os is a death world that has been settled by the Imperium for use as a prison world. Convicts from all across the Ultima Segmentum are sent to this world because of its harsh environment and relative safety of the system it resides in. It currently houses 600,000 prisoners but the number often fluctuates with riots and/or new arrivals from elsewhere in the sector.

Geography
The planet possess a singular continent named Solistus that spans an estimated six hundred square miles and is surrounded on all sides by a ocean of gases mixed with radioactive compounds. It is a relatively flat landmass due to the low tectonic activity of the world. The only points of interest are the prison facilities which dot the continent.

Prisons
The sole purpose of this world is to house Heretics and ruffians so it has very impressive prison facilities. Each prison rests on the very edges of the Solistus, their walls overlooking the toxic seas, making escape very difficult.

Each of these prisons houses both male and female inmates, living in cell blocks divided by gender.

North Prison (Minimum Security)
Perhaps it is a bit of a misnomer to call it minimum security as it is still above and beyond most other prisons. It has comparatively lax doctrines when compared to the rest of the prisons however and the least severe offenders are sent here.

Prisoners are fed three meals a day, the food imported from Syprios and allowed ten hours out of their cells (typically this means they work in the mines or factories for most of the time). Convicts are allowed to pursue their interests and hobbies so long as they don't have a nefarious side to them. There have been minimal problems at this facility thus far and the least amount of executions of the four prisons on Kri-os.
