Templus V is a small world far out on the galactic fringe,
although located centrally within a rather vast neighborhood
of Imperial worlds. Templus V holds the distinction of being
home to one of the largest Imperial shrines outside of Terra
and the inner worlds. Nearly the entire 3 billion population
of the Templus system is involved in the maintenance, support
and protection of the shrine.
Templus V also houses bases for the Inquisition, the
Adeptus Administratum, an Adeptus Arbites precinct,
a small convent of Adepta Soroitas, an Imperial Naval base,
a regiment of Imperial Guard and a special contingent of
Space Marines, made up of a small revolving mixture marines
from various chapters.
The various imperial warriors stationed on Templus V are
responsible for maintaining the imperial rule in this sector
of the galaxy. This is the main reason for the strange and
varied assortment of imperial cults here. A secondary reason
for the odd location of these bases is that Templus V system
is the end point of one of the few safe passages through the
warp from Terra and the inner worlds.
All told the sphere of influence they control and protect
comprises 245 worlds and more than 2 trillion citizens of the
Imperium. The range of operations they are called upon to
complete include: putting down minor and major rebellions
and heretical uprisings; destroying Genestealer incursions
and cults; battling Chaos Marine raiding and invasion forces;
protecting outlying interests from Eldar or Ork raiders;
and protecting the worlds from the many raids by a
particularly crafty Dark Eldar Archon and his twisted
warriors.
Below details the makeup of the forces which act as the
elite strike forces in the region around Templus V.
Although often accompanied by a very small and specialized
contingent of Space Marines from various chapters, they are
not detailed here. The makeup of the Space Marine force
may changes too often, usually campaign by campaign, for
an effective organization chart to be developed.
