The Yncarne (Ha! Get it? Yncarne as in...''Incarn AKA Incarnation?'') is the Avatar of Ynnead. Yncarne was the first step to the Seventh Path, a method of awakening Ynnead without sacrificing the entire Eldar race. A lot like the [[Khaine#Avatar of Khaine|Avatar of Khaine]], except rather than a bajillion of them, there is only <u>ONE</u> Yncarne. This is due to the fact that Ynnead's birth was cut prematurely during Gathering Storm, so as of now, Ynnead is now in fetus-form in the persona of the Yncarne.

While not on the same humiliating scale as poor Khaine over there, the Yncarne did got his ass handed to him by [[Ahzek_Ahriman|Ahriman]]. But to be fair, the Yncarne wasn't fully formed so we don't really know his true power.
 
In battle, The Yncarne wields the Crone Sword Vilith-zhar.

Tabletop wise, this little Death God is 250 points, and what a character you get for that. With its Vilith-shar, the Sword of Souls, the Yncarne will be hitting targets with an [[Awesome]] weapon using one of two profiles: a piercing hit for walloping characters and vehicles (S+4 AP-4 D3+3 that ''ignores invuls''), or a sweeping hit for wiping out big squads (SUser AP-4 D1 Ax2). It also has a magic flamer that auto-hits ''every unit'' within 6" (S7 AP-2 D1). The Yncarne is also pretty resilient, T7 with 12 Wounds, a 3+ armor and 4+ invuln and halved damage from Deathly Form.

But it's not just a beatstick. It confers ignore-Combat Attrition to all friendly Ynnari infantry within 12", it starts the game knowing ''all'' of the powers from the Revenant psychic discipline and can cast two of them each phase (with two deny's), it has Battle Focus and Strands of Fate, and it can fly over terrain and appear within 1" of a just-wiped unit whether you have it in-reserve or on the board (the caveat is it cannot appear within engagement range of an enemy nor can it charge or heroically intervene).

All of this means that the Yncarne is a ridiculously strong deathstar model and character assassin with a monstrously wide threat range. Pretty much any enemy squad dies within a round of this beast getting within arms' reach, and very few characters can come out on top in a fight with it.
