{{Main|Craftworld Yemoja}}

One of the largest eldar structures ever built in realspace, this craftworld was once the pinnacle of eldar science, specializing in genetic manipulation. Their bone-singers had learned how to manipulate DNA with their minds, leading them to create a zoo of mutated and hybrid fauna and flora. The fall of the eldar destroyed Yemoja's power generators, and the hyper-evolved life within flooded the ship. The eldar within struggled to survive in the hellish version of nature they created, so much so that they could not breed fast enough to keep a stable population. Faced with the threat of extinction, the eldar scientists manipulated their race's own DNA, shortening the amount of time needed to gestate. The plan succeeded and the population was saved, but at great cost to the complexity and superiority of the Eldar's genetics. They were now no better than the average mon'keigh, and lost many of the secrets of their people. Their great culture devolved into a primitive understanding of the universe, and they lost the ability to read and write. The bone-singers acted as vocal historians, telling what little they remembered about their origins.
