Sslyths

The Sslyth are a sentient xenos race of reptilian creatures with a snake-like lower body and vaguely humanoid torso, though they sport multiple arms and a head more serpentine than human. As true Drukhari make rather dubious bodyguards due to their treacherous nature, instead, Archons employ these more reliable alien mercenaries. Of all the species to haunt Commorragh’s satellite realms, most Dark Eldar Archons have found the Sslyth to be the most reliable — and survivable — bodyguard species available for hire.
