Editing Eldar (section)

==Notable Craftworlds==
* [[Craftworld Alaitoc]] - The most structurally rigid of the craftworlds. Their strict adherence to discipline allows them to field a large number Exarchs. On the other plus side, all these rules tend to put off a lot of spehss elves, so they also have a large number of rangers on hand, including elite rangers known as "Pathfinders". The large number of misfits they produce also makes them close to Corsair bands. Currently got their shit kicked by the Imperium after their craftworld was invaded by both the Guard and the Space Marines, due to Dark Eldar dickery. Further sabotaging the Eldar by getting their agents constantly captured, with the Imperium learning most of what they know about the Eldar from Alaitoc's bumbling rangers.

* [[Craftworld Biel-tan]] - Best known for their military prowess, which allowed them to wipe out invaders. Are on a mission to restore the Eldar Empire, and so are highly protective of Eldar Maiden Worlds, violently murdering any non-Eldar race trying to settle on one under their watch. The most militaristic and xenophobic (more so than usual) of the Craftworlds. As of the Gathering Storm campaign, the Biel-Tan craftworld itself has been heavily damaged after the Yncarne was born and purged a Daemon infestation within its structure at the Battle of Biel-Tan. Subsequently half of Biel-Tan's population remains on the Craftworld, the remaining half either being dead or leaving to join the Ynnari. With their enormous recent loss of life they're quickly headed to becoming Iyanden 2.0.

* [[Craftworld Iyanden]] - Almost got nommed to death by the [[Tyranids]], including the infamous story of having their avatar trampled to death by a herd of stampeding Carnifexi. They would have been completely eaten, if it wasn't for [[Prince Yriel]], who saved his Craftworld using with his Corsair band and a big fucking spear of doom. Is almost depleted and so reluctantly have to rely on a large number of wraith constructs to help them in battle. Has a history of almost dying, having recently almost died twice more to two Chaos Invasions, making it the Damsel in Distress of Eldar Craftworlds.

* [[Craftworld Saim-Hann]] - A less-restrained craftworld who likes to go fast. They've even taken a page out of the Orks' book that [[Orks|"da' red wuns go fasta'!"]] as their primary colors are red. Unlike other craftworlds; Saim-Hann takes the concept of the Paths with a grain of salt, and so are more wild and barbaric compared to others (although not a Dark Eldar extreme). Whether this is them just making the best out of their situation or downright retarded (as these were the actions that led to their race's near extinction) is up to debate. Is basically the red, elfy version of the [[White Scars]], only with less Mongolian. Recently following an invasion by a small Death Guard force the Saim-Hann Eldar were forced to cut off a piece of their Craftworld to save it from infection, abandoning the Eldar living on that part and causing them to be posessed by Nurgle Daemons. Whilst Biel-tan, Iyanden and Ulthwe are dying, Alaitoc is useless, Saim-hann just doesn't do much of anything at all.

* [[Craftworld Ulthwé]] - With Biel-tan and Iyanden both basically dead it is now the largest of the remaining Craftworlds, it specializes in psykers. Ulthwé was caught at the edge of the Eye of Terror's gravity pull, and so could not escape its proximity and the lovecraftian horrors spewing out of it; they're basically the Eldar version of [[Cadia]]; they have been responsible for preventing countless Chaos crusades from ever leaving the Eye, even the Night Lords didn't fancy having to take them on. Due to this, they have a heavy emphasis on the Path of the Seer to help them predict the constant attacks they experience on a daily basis. This emphasis on psykers does have a downside of having less Aspect Warriors on hand compared to others, but compensate for this being the only known Craftworld to have a standing army of professional soldiers known as "Black Guardians" which are more akin to career soldiers than your average militiamen made to answer a call to arms. Also former home of the [[Eldrad|biggest dick]], this side of the Eye of Terror. Currently defenceless and wracked by internal conflict as it splinters into three separate factions.

* [[Craftworld Altansar]] - Was lost in the Eye of Terror for a while. Then [[Phoenix Lord|Maugan Ra]] dragged it out with his epicness. Are viewed by suspicion by other Eldar due to spending an extended amount of time in the Warp (as an Eldar, no less), but do not dare do anything about it, lest they face the biotitan-bisecting wrath of the Eldar's version of Jetstream Sam.

* [[Craftworld Iybraesil]] - A matriarchal society with a disproportionately high female population, and has a very high number of Banshee shrines, holding Jain Zar almost as their patron saint. Commissars have warned citizens of the Imperium to stay away from the craftworld, as the perfidious Xenos scum are clearly even more vile and deviant then the rest of their kind. Many brave Imperial citizens have gotten it into their heads that a Craftworld led by ladies must be some form of lewd paradise (and not the highly efficient and professional Craftworld that it is) and have decided to risk their lives in the name of the Emperor to find the Craftworld Iybraesil and [[Sister of Solace|... ahem ... destroy this heresy]].

* [[Craftworld Yme-Loc]] - Bedecked in their rad grey and orange armour, they are famed for their Bonesingers and producing incredible weapons and equipment, however, got their shit kicked in when the Mechanicus came and beat them up and stole their stuff. Also noted as the most Snoop-dogg attitude craftworld ever. Khorne hounds in the lower decks? Bah, screw that. Mechanicus pillage? No bother! Ravengay marine single-handedly hunting down half of your seer council? Who cares! Vaul taught them to go easy on those things and so they do.

* [[Craftworld Kaelor]] - A minor Craftworld that took refuge at the furthest borders of the galaxy, developing a unique culture and ruled over by several noble households. Being so isolated from the many conflicts their peers were involved in, it once nearly fell to a re-emergence of [[Slaanesh|pleasure cults]], leading to a civil war. Their livery is a red and yellow scheme, with the Warp Spider a their most prominent choice of aspect warrior.

* [[Craftworld Il-Kaithe]] - A Craftworld with a particularly strong hatred for Chaos, even by Eldar standards, willing to work alongside almost [[Dark_Eldar|any]] [[The_Imperium_of_Man|faction]] so long as it screws over the Ruinous Powers. Wear rather vivid green and purple armour, and are best known for having Bonesingers skilled enough to march to war with them. More recently screwed over by lore in the [[Psychic Awakening]]: Phoenix Rising book by having a psychic sickness manifest on their Craftworld, causing their forces to start throwing themselves recklessly into various near-suicidal engagements. [[Grimdark|Because, obviously, having one Craftworld with all its shit in order was too much of an ask]].

* [[Craftworld Mymeara]] - A recently discovered small and stealthy Craftworld, closely connected to the [[Phoenix Lord]] of Irillyth, who led their armies away in a suicide attack to preemptively save them. The focus of Imperial Armour 11 (the Forge World campaign book), they were hiding in an artificial star nebula and <s>were savagely mauled by</s> led a successful distractiong campaign against the [[Space Wolves]] on Betalis to resurrect Irillyth. Thought they were the only surviving Eldar in the galaxy until their recent discovery by some Alaitoc scouts. Plus they're the coolest looking Eldar faction thanks to their blue-green colour shifting armour.

* [[Craftworld Lugganath]] - A Craftworld that considers the galaxy a lost cause, opting instead to try to find a portal to the Webway big enough to fit an entire continent-sized vessel. Have a large fleet and are popular with their Harlequin and Corsair kin, but reserve a particular hatred for the [[Dark_Eldar|less reputable examples of the Eldar people]]. Which makes sense given they essentially want to live in the same neighbourhood, and no one wants to be within spitting distance of [[Commorragh|the worst place in the galaxy]].
