Karandras

Karandras, The Shadow Hunter, is the Eldar Phoenix Lord of the Striking Scorpions Aspect Warriors. Legends of Karandras the Shadow Hunter tell of one of the most mysterious of all the Phoenix Lords. No one knows where he originally came from or where his shrine originally lay, but perhaps it was on one of the small Craftworlds which survived the Fall but was destroyed soon after. He is not the oldest of the Exarchs of the Striking Scorpions. It is said that this singular honour belongs to the one that came before him, Arhra, the Father of Scorpions, the most sinister of all the Phoenix Lords. He turned to the darkness and waged war upon his own kin. Eventually he fled into the Eldar Webway to become the Fallen Phoenix who burns with the dark light of Chaos. Whether he live is still unknown, but many have their suspicions that he is still alive. Karandras has the most potent sting of any Striking Scorpion, for the Mandiblasters of his Aspect Warriors are but a pin-prick compared to the fearsome bite of this Phoenix Lord. These twin weapons are called the Scorpion's Bite.
