Summary: Xyleran is a Feudal World in the Xyleran System, and gives the System its name. Its surface is covered with large forests and plains, and is incredibly mineral rich. The planet is also the homeworld of the Xylerantine Kataphraktoi Regiment of the Imperial Guard. It has a standard gravity intensity and breathable atmosphere. The veil between the Materium the Warp is extraordinarily thick on and around Xyleran.
History: Xyleran is a peaceful world, as the Autokrator of the Xylerantine Empire ensures the 'lesser' nations cooperate with one another. Prior to the rise of the Empire one thousand years ago, Xyleran was continuously wrought with war and conflict without end, to the point of stressing its capability to pay its tithe of men and minerals. The rise of the Xylerantine Empire was brought about when the Planetary Governor decided to directly intervene in the planets politics in order to fulfill its tithe requirements, supporting a nation he deemed worthy to rule, he saw all others swear allegiance and vassalage to it through military action.
Society: While the planet itself is ruled over by an Imperial Planetary Governor on Sjerba, the people of the planet are divided into kingdoms, republics, and tribes whom all swear allegiance to the Xylerantine Autokrator , or "Self-Ruler", who is ordained to rule by the Planetary Governor, and thereby the God-Emperor himself. For the most part, the people of Xyleran are divided into five distinct classes:
Notable Public Figures:
Notable Defense Forces: Every nation of the Xylerantine Empire maintains it's own army, varying in composition but generally organized into cavalry-based knights, men-at-arms infantry, with a split in ranged forces between skirmishers, slingers, and archers. The Xylerantine Empire itself maintains a powerful Kataphraktoi regiment to serve as the peacekeeping force and maintain the balance of powers of Xyleran.

For the most part, the people of Xyleran are divided into five distinct classes:
- Aristocrats ordained by the Autokrator to oversee a 'lesser' nation.
- Kings/Princes/Chiefs of the individual nations as well as those whom control and serve in their respective militiaries. It is from this class that the Kataphraktoi are recruited.
- Skilled workers who perform specialized tasks and professions within their respective nations.
- Unskilled workers which provide the menial labor and support the classes above them with their sweat and effort, they are primarily miners, for Xyleran is rich in minerals valuable to the Imperium.
- Outcasts, the "Children of the Emperor", mostly orphans who carry no family ties that would allow them to better their lot in life. They usually die before they grow out of adolescence. Those that do survive usually do so by giving themselves to the Ecclesiarchy, for even a man who has nothing can still offer his life.
