Rynn's World is the Chapter Homeworld of the Crimson Fists. Imagine Andalusia from modern-day Spain, except as a planet, and you're not quite far-off.
Overview[edit]
The world is a pleasant place to live in, mostly known for its agriculture and fruit exports. IF you ignore its almost next-door neighbors, the Ork Empire of Charadon, that is.
The planet has been hammered twice in recent memory, first when Snagrod the Arch-Arsonist brought his boyz for a friendly bar crawl at the tail end of M41, then by scads of Daemons with the opening of the Great Rift.
Despite it being the Spanish-themed Chapter homeworld, it doesn't really do much recruiting from it due to the fact that the planet is sparsely populated and mountainous. Instead they draw many of their candidates from the neighboring jungle hellhole named Blackwater, it being the ACTUAL source of all these Hispanic-named Astartes like Pedro Kantor.
Now the most (in)famous event of this planet was the fact that it had a Lamenters-level of mishap that nearly destroyed the Crimson Fists. You see, the planet used to be protected by a formidable missile defence system, designed to deter invaders. Unfortunately, during Snagrod's wild ride, someone was clearly slacking off the missile's maintenance procedures, as when the Fists decided to use it, one of the missiles somehow went rogue and completed a Looney Tunes-level of Fail. Instead of targeting the Ork battlefleets, it targeted the Crimson Fist's fortress-monastery instead. The resulting freak accident nearly wiped out the entire chapter.
