Humanity's homeworld. Most likely the planet on which you currently reside.
This page is not called "Terra" because Supernatural World War II used to link here.
Mostly Harmless (if you're a human).
In Warhammer 40,000
Since, apparently, everybody important speaks Latin in the future, Earth is known as Terra or Holy Terra. Nevertheless, it is still the homeworld of humanity and the capital of the Imperium of Man, and location of the Golden Throne and the God-Emperor of Mankind. Pretty much the best place to be. Unless you don't like gold-plated slums that still have scars from the Horus Heresy. But it is really Holy.
Speaking of the heresy, that was the single thrill of excitement the planet got when Horus turned up in orbit but instead of bringing potato salad for the annual family bbq, he bought a lot of PAIN and daddy issues to work out and promptly invaded the world with the selection of scum and villians he had gathered. Of course the game won't be what it is if he had just won there and then, so GW overruled the Chaos Gods and allowed the Emperor to off Horus and allow 10,000 years of fuckery to begin and which world do you think has been at the centre of that fuckery? Yep you guessed right.
There is so much awesome shit on Holy Terra that most of the planet is practically a cross between a museum and an amusement park. Of course, since 40K is so Grimdark the lines are so long they're measured not in hours but in generations and by the time you would have reached the front of the queue the whole purpose of visiting might have completely been forgotten.
Currently the Tyranid hive fleets on route to Terra since the Emperor and his big flash light are so shiny they are like a lighthouse shining it's light for them to see. Like Horus, they will not be bringing a fruit basket to visit.
The location of:
- The Golden Throne
- Bears
- Astronomicon HQ
- Enough binge to make modern day America look poor
- Ptera Squirrels (which are vicious and evil creatures)
- Stonehenge ('tis a magic place, where the moon doth rise with a dragon's face)
- A palace the size of Europe
- Various palaces/domains/realms of dignities who pay a fortune per minute just to rent a bit of Terra's holy soil
- Super Secret OMG-Don't-Tell-Anyone Inquisition HQ
- The high temple of assassins (somewhere)
- All the Custodes
