Feral worlds are worlds, as defined by the Empire, where the natives are below space flight tech level or have at one point been a space traveling society that has fallen into chaos. This leads to three overarching types of Feral worlds:

- Untouched Feral worlds have never seen space ships and advance tech or have had limited experience small enough to not widely change the society of the world

- Touched Feral worlds have seen ships and advance tech leading to cultural change generally with either the actual use of advance tech (techno barbarians) or the worship of some sort of crashed ship, advance tech, or a alien's corpse.

- Fallen Feral worlds are worlds that where once advance worlds that have fallen into a state of chaos and anarchy normally after some apocalyptic event. Normally leading to blood cults, death cults, and barbarians of all sorts.

The populations of most feral worlds live within either hunter gathering societies, warlords, or plenty of tyrants. Generally Feral worlds are dominated by war and blood with the natives knowing pretty much nothing about the wider universe.

On those worlds that have advance tech in some shape or form rise the Techno-Barbarians generally heavily augmented warriors and warlords fighting massive mad max like battles across generally atomic wastelands.

Generally Feral worlds are left alone save by the opportunist of plain stupid. For example missionaries don't tend to last long on Feral worlds (some do). The Feral worlds near and in the Empire are actually treated as recruiting grounds seeing as they worlds produce battle hardened warriors, gladiators, and body guards. While the weaker elements of society make great slaves.

This leads to Feral worlds having a orbital station or a base near the planet where the slavers set up shop and launch raids unto the planets surface. Generally one of these individuals becomes the appointed 'Governor' of the world expected to pay tithes of warriors to the State.
