	The Sslyth (''Serpentes vindicum'') are xenos usually employed to act as loyal bodyguards for the [[Dark Eldar]] [[Archon_(Warhammer_40,000)\|Archons]]. Apparently millennia ago, like the Eldar beforehand, the Sslyth fell to the temptations of unbridled excess and quickly became one of the most favored beings of the Dark Eldar. What a convenient marriage of two species of the same side of the coin. Sslyth typically look like snakes with four arms, which allows them to carry [[Dark_Eldar_Combat_Weapons#Sslyth Battle-Blade\|enough blades]] and [[Splinter Rifle\|weapons]] to end the fool who strikes at a Dark Eldar leader.

	The reasons Sslyth make excellent bodyguards are their aforementioned loyalty and the fact that hiring a Dark Eldar as a bodyguard is a sure death sentence for the leader, as the treacherous and backstabby hijinks of the Dark Eldar mean that a coup or assassination (or sometimes both!) is often well under way. They are also tough, shrugging off blows that would fell [[Humans]] and [[Eldar]] alike; they can even survive having one of their arms chopped off [[Starship Troopers\| and are still 86% combat effective]], which combines with their short-sighted and simple-minded approach (killing anyone who looks at them funny) to elevate their use and worth as competent bodyguards.

However, one of the Deathwatch short stories does mention that the Sslyth are "predisposed to perversion" (hence why they love to ride with Archons so much), and describes how they raised a fane to [[Slaanesh\|the Lord of Unspeakable Pleasures]] on one of their nests. The same story mentions how it was the Emperor's Children who planted the nests as part of a larger Sector-wide chaos insurrection.

	The reasons Sslyth make excellent bodyguards are their aforementioned loyalty and the fact that hiring a Dark Eldar as a bodyguard is a sure death sentence for the leader, as the treacherous and backstabby hijinks of the Dark Eldar mean that a coup or assassination (or sometimes both!) is often well under way. They are also tough, shrugging off blows that would fell [[Humans]] and [[Eldar]] alike; they can even survive having one of their arms chopped off [[Starship Troopers\| and are still 86% combat effective]], which combines with their short-sighted and simple-minded approach (killing anyone who looks at them funny) to elevate their use and worth as competent bodyguards.

	The Sslyth are xenos usually employed to act as loyal bodyguards for the [[Dark Eldar]] [[Archon_(Warhammer_40,000)\|Archons]]. Apparently millennia ago, like the Eldar beforehand, the Sslyth fell to the temptations of unbridled excess and quickly became one of the most favored beings of the Dark Eldar. What a convenient marriage of two species of the same side of the coin. Sslyth typically look like snakes with four arms, which allows them to carry enough blades and weapons to end the fool who strikes at a Dark Eldar leader.
