The Imperium of Light is a galaxy-spanning human federation for unity and protection from outside threats. A futuristic civilisation on countless planets with diverse political entities and power structures that opposes the chaos, darkness, xenos and human traitors of the entire multiverse. In the midst of this endless sea of violence and brutal hatred shines the light of humanity, whose birthright to the stars is fought for with sword and blood. At the head of the gigantic bureaucratic apparatus of Militarum, Administratum, the planets and trillions of human lives stands the sacred planet Omnius. The birthplace of humanity from which the gods helped mankind in their birthright to the stars. Now bound in their own divine dimension, only the Deities of the third generation can help humans personally. Led by the Divine Imperator himself, son of the King of the Gods bound to the throne of the stars, the Imperium is led. With trillions of human lives in the factories of the great industrial planets, trillions in the Administratum and millions in the Imperium Militarum, the remnants of the Imperium stand against the categorical arch-enemies: the Aliens (Xenos), the Darkness, the Chaos and the human Heretics. The time of the humans seems to be drawing to a close, but no one can ever underestimate them.
