Hellions are outfitted with their Skyboards, a Wychsuit, a store of potent combat enhancement drugs, a Hellglaive and a Stunclaw, a close combat weapon that can paralyze a victim so that he can be snatched into the sky. The Succubi are the true celebrities in the gladiatorial arenas of the Dark City, and when they are in the heat of combat they enjoy a jealous envy from their peers that is as close as the Dark Eldar can ever get to veneration or admiration of another being.

All that was left of the Aeldari species were the Exodites of the farthest-flung Maiden Worlds, the Craftworld Aeldari who had travelled far enough to escape the aftershock of destruction caused by Slaanesh's birth and the formation of the Eye of Terror, and those adherents of the Pleasure Cults who were hidden in the sub-realms of the Webway. They strike with little or no warning, using an interdimensional labyrinth known as the Webway to traverse the galaxy safely and far more quickly than most advanced starfaring species are able to with their Warp jumps.

The body is Warrior, the extra parts are again Dryad, and the gun is custom made from Plasticard rods. Masked and physically altered to better instill terror into those they encounter, the Wracks act as the hands of the Haemonculi in the outside world and during combat they defend their masters with their lives.

Whooping gangs of Hellions and hurtling Reaver jetbikes perform high speed fly-by strikes. Archons regularly lead full-scale planetary raids for their Kabals, as drinking in the agony of entire planets is the only way they can regenerate themselves.

An example of The Flaying proceeds as follows: A Drukhari Haemonculus consumes a soul of an Asuryani Guardian of the Alaitoc craftworld. Their pilots delight in executing murderous strafing runs and watching the panicked survivors scatter for cover. The furore that resulted from this audacious capture set the spires of High Commorragh aflame with new intrigue.

The Scourges are so vital to the intrigues of the Dark City that to kill one is to invite a very painful death by his or her fellows. Many captives, when too broken to provide further sport, will be rent and reshaped into undying trophies or even grotesque items of jewellery or furniture - more than one Haemonculi's lair has sported a moaning, twitching throne fashioned from the remains of his favourite victims.

From the Dark City of Commorragh, hidden deep within the twisting passages of the webway, their reaver-fleets strike forth in a never-ending search for new souls to torment. Their spines have been elongated so that from the lower back, their vertebrae meld into prehensile bone-tails that can lash out at their victims. They flow like water around their foes' attempts to land a blow, their expressions of aloof arrogance melting into infuriating smiles of superiority as they drink in each fresh scream of agony. The Drukhari, particularly their warrior castes, are tall, lithe, white-skinned humanoids. This will be updated based on comments from you guys.

The first indicator of a Dark Eldar raid into realspace is always a viridian light in the sky, that unfolds and spirals outwards into a shimmering, multidimensional portal that blazes with green flame. Yet it was not long before more of the Dark City's denizens joined the fight, drawn to violence and death like sharks to blood. A great Warp rift was created in the material universe at the site of what had once been the centre of the Aeldari civilisation, encompassing almost the entire Aeldari Empire and creating the Eye of Terror, thus marking the end of the era known to Humanity as the Age of Strife. The wings were measured out and cut from 0.25mm Plasticard (A4). Drukhari armies make use of various anti-gravity skimmers such as Raiders and Ravagers to launch high speed attacks.
