Dark Reapers

The Dark Reapers are the most menacing of the Aeldari Aspect Warriors. They exemplify the Aeldari War God Kaela Mensha Khaine in his aspect as the Destroyer, and their skull-masked costume echoes that of their founder and Phoenix Lord, the “Harvester of Souls,” Maugan Ra. They specialise in the use of highly-destructive, long-range heavy weaponry. The origins of the Dark Reaper Aspect can be traced to Craftworld Altansar and the Fall of the Aeldari, following the birth of the Chaos God, Slaanesh. Altansar rode out the psychic shock-waves that destroyed the Aeldari Empire but was subsequently caught in the gravity well of the Eye of Terror.
