Summary: Balkis is a mineral rich world orbiting Xyleran. It is manned by menial penal laborers brought from the Armora System and overseen by the Adeptus Arbites to ensure the punishment of labor is carried out.
History: The mining colony on Balkis was established near the same time as rise of the Xylerantine Empire. It's richness in valuable minerals helps cover the tithe of mineral for the planet, allowing Xyleran proper to exist without severe material exploitation.
Society: The laborers have their own hierarchy and pecking order, as expected of any penal laborers, though none can avoid the hard labor that the Emperor demands of them. The authority on the colony is held by the Foreman-Warden, who answers to the Planetary Governor.
Notable Public Figures:
Notable Defense Forces: Balkis is protected by the planetary orbital defense system, having a few of the emplacements of the system on Balkis itself. The colony is protected by a handful of Wardens and enforcer-servitors.
