A variant of the Wraithguard that 6E introduced into the sprues are the Wraithblades (also known as Klaivaulch, but Eldar don't openly call them that because Khaine would unleash his wrath on them), a type of more kill-hungry Wraithguard with big helm crests that don't compensate for anything at all. In fact, the Wraithblades are so angry that their simmering rage is nearly as great as that of Angry Marines. So much so, in fact, that Seers need to isolate them from other Wraith Constructs or else they would be infected by rage (like that one G1 Transformers episode that introduces the Hate Plague). Not to mention that their Spirit Stones actually burn when activated.
It is unknown what makes the Wraithblades so damned angry, although some theories might suggest that Khaine might have something to do with it...or its just Eldrad being the dick as usual. Whatever is the case, they are known to cause even Khorne affiliated armies a severe case of critical existence failures. One must just wonder what it would be like if Khornates actually subdue one and got a hands on its pissed off Spirit Stones. Extra Heresy maybe?
