Planet History
The world of Grytalen was said to be a peaceful and beautiful world with their diamond shores and red-grass plains. Somehow the local population managed to mine into their world without damaging their ecosystem. The people itself made homes in the mountainous regions as to be closer to workstations and to avoid an environmental catastrophe. Near the end of the 37th Millennium an Ork transport crashed into the world’s northern hemisphere, the local population was able to contain the ork infestation effectively until the warboss of the time unleashed a weapon of what he would call “DA PLANUT MELTUR”.

This weapon made the oceans evaporate,the grass lands turned to red sludge, made most forests becoming rotten and weak. Because of this weapon half of the world was taken over by the Orks and the people became embittered towards the greenskins over the loss of their jem in the Imperium, in response the people turned their mountain homes into cramped mountain fortresses. For centuries the Imperium couldn’t aid the people of Grytalen as they were preoccupied on larger threats and so the local population had to adapt to this new threat. The soldiers have to wear hazardous gear to protect themselves and travel in Leman Russ tanks. Most regiments raised on Grytalen stay on their homeworld to fight against the greenskins, those that leave their world battle against all types of xenos but prefer fighting orks. Most offworld regiments request to be placed in battles against Orks.

Notable locations on the Planet

 * Corpse Fields: The Corpse Fields is a currently contested spot on the planet. The 31stGrytalen "First Talon" is spearheading the assault against Warboss "The Tyrant of Zhark". Originally called the Ice Fields the fields earned its name with the amount of corpses of both human and Orks. It is said the smell is worst than the actual fighting.
 * Rotting Jungles: The once vibrant jungles are now home to weak and rotting forestry. The jungles are home to a ethnic group of people called "Draista" with almond eyes and dark hair. These people live in underground bunkers and are in a constant struggle against groups of Kommandos.
 * Sludge Wastes: Much of the red grass plains were turned to sludge. These wastes have been turned to maze of trench networks where the local human population defend day and night. Men fighting in the red trenches as they have been called sometimes have trouble differentiating blood from red sludge.
 * The Mountains of Vajaris. These mountains are the largest mountain chains on the planet these mountain have vast fortresses carved in and outside of these mountains. They are zealously guarded by the people who call them home.

World's Beliefs
Much of Grytalen’s culture have radically changed since their planet’s ecosystem melted before their eyes, most Grytalen have an extreme love for wildlife and biospheres. It is common for Grytalen soldiers keeping plant seeds or taming an animal they like on a planet they are assigned to. When a person becomes of fighting age they are pressed into training where the strong are turned into warriors and weak become strong. Grytalen have strong communal bonds where the big and strong watch over the weaker of their groups and make sure they are treated fairly, the people of Grytale. Believe in sharing honors so usually instead of individuals getting promoted the whole squad gets the award unless the very squad recommends one of their own. this goes back when the local population had to rely heavily on their groups for survival when the Imperium didn’t aid them.

When a man of Grytalen disobeys orders or does anything that warrant an execution it is up to their leaders to execute them. Deserting is considered the highest of offenses as they let down their group and kin, deserting is punishable by hanging with all other offenses punishable by beheading.
