What is an Aeldari? Is it a space elf? Is it something a little closer to Ridley Scott's Engineers? The original 80s Eldar were certainly Geiger-esque in the accompanying art. In the texts too. So great were the souls of the Ancient Aeldari, that they birthed from the madness of their decadence their own Doom: Slannesh, the Devouorer. The Drukhari fled Him into a maze of warp tunnels and pocket dimensions were the remnant kept the dark old ways in fear. The Aeldari chose a different path. Boarding vast arks, they set out into space practicing a rigid discipline. For if the fall of the Eldar had birthed their Doom, what might come from their reclamation? Thus was born Yinnari, god of the dead, the hope of the Aeldari.
