A non-industrial world located in the Arnakhish Subsector of Dagudashaag. Drogheda is a member of the Imperium. The system contains a Scout Base.

Ki is a cold, highly volcanic world that retains a very thin tainted atmosphere; at the surface the air pressure is just a few millibars below what qualifies as a thin atmosphere. The air contains sulfur compounds and other contaminants, and can only be breathed using a combinations compressor/filter masks.

There is native life, but on land it consists entirely of primitive plants. Ki's oceans are covered by a thick crust of ice but are liquid beneath. Animals are known to dwell in the seas but a properly organized expedition to discover the nature of Ki's aquatic lifeforms has never been undertaken.

The community on Ki is self-sufficient in food and produces industrial-grade chemicals which are sold to Likhukam. Its major imports include high tech life support equipment and luxuries.
