====Eldar==== *'''Craftworld [[Eldar]]:''' **Space elves. The members of the race that went "Well shit, guys, we just partied so hard that we accidentally made a God of sex and cocaine, so maybe we should re-think our lives", and then fucked off to giant [[Craftworld|worldships]] and tried as hard as possible to forget that time they made dildos out of bees. Much like college graduates coming face to face with their Facebook page when applying for jobs, Slaanesh is always there to remind them that their souls are forfeit and belong to him/her/it. And no, the worldships are NOT as cool as you think they are, they're even '''cooler'''. They're darting around doing unfathomable stuff, trolling [[Imperium|the man]], and taking names. You'd think they'd at least be on civil terms with the Imperium, considering they share many of the same enemies and goals (namely, stop all the other genocidal races from turning the galaxy into a [[Chaos|collective seizure]] / [[Orks|the world's most deadly playground]] / [[Necrons|a lifeless wasteland]] / [[Tyranids|lunch]] / [[Dark Eldar|all of the above]]), but Eldar seem to have [[Eldrad|dickishness]] written into their DNA. They sometimes help, sometimes don't, and as such, the Imperium are uncertain on how to deal with them - they have been there to defeat some big old Daemon, and sometimes have killed entire armies, so it's kind of a toss-up. [[Inquisition|Better just kill them and then ask questions, right?]] *'''[[Harlequin]]s:''' **Space elves who like to cosplay as psychotic clowns. They are seemingly random space elves who leave the other factions and join up with this mysterious cult that serves the trickster god [[Cegorach]]. They act as intermediaries between the other space elf factions, and then like to put on dramatic performances retelling ancient space elf mythologies- which includes using hallucinogenic gasses/psychic powers on their audiences. They also defend the great space elf [[Webway|interstellar highway network]] against daemons and other intruders- mainly because they have a [[Black Library#In Warhammer 40,000|big fancypants library]] hidden in there. *'''[[Dark Eldar]]:''' **The space dark elves that, after spawning the God of "Let's make some new orifices to fuck" decided that they'd rather be humongous soul eating douchebags than get a grip on their metaphysical coke habit. These elves will raid, mutilate, rape, and torture the crap out of anyone even half-alive, and not necessarily in any specific order. Significantly less civilized than the Craftworld Eldar, they'll do what ever the fuck they want, mostly because it actually prolongs their life-span. They live in the Webway and invade real space once in a while from their evil, dark city of Commorragh to get some fresh slaves and to strike terror in the enemy. They are one of the few factions who will always actively target civilians for no other reason than because they're helpless. *'''[[Eldar#Eldar_Corsairs|Eldar Corsairs]]:''' **These Eldar have abandoned the strict and regimented lifestyle of the Craftworlds to engage in acts of piracy and adventure. While not as extremely hedonistic as the Dark Eldar, their lifestyle is still quite hazardous as they have no protections against Slaanesh's pull on their souls. Many Eldar still find this path worth the risk, often going to great lengths to amass wealth and get their jollies off before eventually getting bored and returning home, or else going full monty and joining the Commorrites. This army has no formal models but can be represented by a mix of Eldar and Dark Eldar figures. *'''[[Warhammer 40,000/Tactics/Ynnari(7E)|Ynnari]]:''' **The combined forces of all Eldar factions under the leadership of the newborn Eldar god of death, [[Ynnead]]. These spess elves come from very many different walks of life but have one purpose: to fuck [[Slaanesh]]'s shit up. Currently the friendliest Eldar faction towards the Imperium (alongside Harlequins I guess, seeing as they perform their circus tricks on plenty of human worlds as well as Eldar ones. Oh, and maybe 8th ed Ulthwe too). *'''[[Exodites]]:''' **Space Wood Elves. Focused on maintaining Eldar planets called Maiden Worlds that survived the fall and never became inhabited by another space faring species. They ride fucking dinosaurs. No official models as of early 9th Edition.
