Name: Cadia Imperial Guardsmen
Capital: Cadia, a Fortress World
Leading Race(s): Humans
Current Leader: Lord Castellan Ursarkar E. Creed
Government System: Empire
Alignment: Good
History: Cadian regiments have been involved in many wars, campaigns and battles off-world. Because of this, the Cadians are widely regarded as the best troops in the Imperium, short of the Space Marines themselves.9,20 With the coming of Abaddon's 13th Black Crusade, they were forced to fight on their own soil. In the early stages of the Black Crusade, they confronted and destroyed the Volscani Cataphracts (a renegade Imperial Guard army) at the Battle of Tyrok Fields on Cadia itself. They were eventually successful at securing the Cadia system, although at a heavy price to human life and resources. Cadians were also among the forces that fought in the Third War for Armageddon.
Other Info: As a fortress world, most of the population of Cadia is under arms, and most aspire to join the ranks of the Imperial Guard or the Cadian Interior Guard, Cadia's PDF. Cadia's militarization is such that most children learn military doctrine before they can walk, inspiring maxims such as: "any Cadian who can't field-strip his own lasgun by the age of 10 was born on the wrong planet" and "If the ammo ain't live, this ain't no Cadian practice".
Cadian youth begin training in the Youth Armies, and eventually are inducted into the Whiteshields, where they fight alongside Cadian regiments and gain vital experience through actual combat. The best and most promising of the Youth Army cadets are selected for special training, eventually joining the elite Kasrkin.
