History and background[edit]
Records from the Second Imperium show this world may have been inhabited by Chirpers.
Pediica was a prosperous petrochemical processing settlement until late 613 when, while the fleets were heavily involved in the Civil War, the planet was invaded by the M'nengi hordes who exterminated the entire colony. The M'nengi were only finally defeated in 615 with the return of Duke Julianne Viisarikaa and his war weary fleet. Pediica is now left as a planetary war memorial to the millions who were slaughtered.
Today the only permanent inhabitants are the Scouts who look after the many graves and memorials, preventing unauthorized access to the Pediica spice works.
