Syndriel heart of the red moon

A former Warlock and Striking Scorpion who left the Craftworld of her birth to follow her lover after finding out about his exile. She made her way to the Void Dragons but took some time to find the ship Rurinil was on. By the time she got there she had become proficient as a Void Dreamer and was navigating ships, where her service was highly prized, and her fame preceded her. Her training as a Striking Scorpion rarely came up but did influence her abilities with a preference to stealth and misdirection tactics.

In her youth she met Rurinil in one of the craftworlds domes this place was known as the fall of dreams. There was a massive waterfall with a lake at its base but at the top of the waterfall was one of the best views of the dome an Eldar could get almost being able to see the far side while seeing towns and cities and spires like jewels on emerald and azure silk. It was at the base of this waterfall that the two met. Syndriel captivated Rurinil with her bravado when she challenged him to a race up the cliff. When she got to the top first, she turned round and teased Rurinil while helping him the last few feet where he proclaimed he wouldn’t be beaten by her again, laughing they stayed there long not the night cycle enjoying wine and stars promising to meet again. They met frequently after this and stayed together as much as they could even when she joined the scorpions to try and be closer to her Rurinil joined the shadow spectres then the howling banshees. It wasn’t until she went to be a warlock and she was pulled away from him for a long time as the path demands that despair first touched her life during her training she was pulled out of a trance with a shock as a partial vision/dream assailed her. She saw her love was escorted from the craftworld by a shrine of avengers and taken to the labyrinth with the garb of a ranger. Her heart breaking especially because of the secret she held was forced to finish her training before leaving to find him as unfinished paths are dangerous but none more than a witch path. When she had left she left her gift with her parents who where dismayed at her choice to follow Rurinil but understanding there was nothing they could do or say to stop her wished her well and promised to care for everything in her stead, so began her long chase.

With Rurinil being years away from the craftworld by this point she had a long chase to go she knew he went to a ranger band, so she sought them out first. When she tracked them down, they told her they never met up with him. She was confused by this turn of events but felt he wasn’t dead so carried on her quest before leaving at a webway port city the rangers said there where corsairs around when he was meant to meat them so they could know of his whereabouts. She found the Sunblitz brotherhood corsairs and joined with them saying she was a former warlock so she could be of great help to them. They gladly accepted her as part of the crew and had her apprentice under there void dreamer Viris Goldenpath. She took to the training with difficulty being unprotected by runes and the infinity circuit. But worked out how traveling as a void dreamer could be safer using her experience as a scorpion and understanding stealth and subtly like no other void dreamer. Syndriel soon became a sensation among her crew helping them ambush other ships in improbable ways. This lasted for a long time until the sunblitz and the void dragons came to blows. The Sunblitz where attacking a human planet that had hired the void dragons to protect them, this was the worst outcome for the sunblitz as it is unwise to wake the sleeping void dragon. When the hidden light was boarded, she was taken prisoner as a valuable prize and taken to the dragon’s prince when unbelievably she met her love once again.

The crew stood in amazement as prince Rurinil ran to the captured void dreamer and with emotions the corsairs had never seen on him before wept with her in his arms feeling more complete than he would for many years to come. When he freed her he asked for her story and they celebrated like they did that first time on the waterfall even if she was bitter about her former crew and friends who died or were captured at his hands. Granted he did free the captured crew, but he could do nothing for the slain and this left the first shadow on there relationship. Over the years that followed Syndriel was never able to tell him about her secret left at the craftworld as it never felt like the right time, and she was always busy finding ways to make his crazy plans work in a safer way. She would also have a permanent unease with the cavalier way he would throw himself into combat even outpacing his bladeswarn guards to make sure he was the first into combat or to challenge the biggest foe, this aside their life was mostly content for corsairs. until one day…

Syndriel died at Iathglas helping her coterie fight against the chaos deamons the crew were stunned as while she had often been wounded had a knack of escaping the worst of injuries and reappearing from a nearby shadow only to carry on protecting her allies. On any other world or at any other time this would have been the end for her and her loss would have destroyed Rurinil but this was Iathglas and the Ynnari where here in full force, with the world soul protecting the souls of the eldar and the Ynnari reviving all those who could be saved she was able to be resurrected but now she had lost her luster of life and became morose when left alone for to long.

## wargear

* witch staff - the last connection to the sunblitz brotherhood, this was the staff she received from Viris Goldenpath when she became the primary voidseer of the ship

* mindblighter - A **Neuro Disruptor** is an elegant xenos psychocrystalline weapon that fires beams of energy capable of burning away nervous tissue in an agonising instant. Armour offers no protection from these weapons, for it is simply bypassed altogether. Indeed, foes hit by a Neuro Disruptor show no outward sign of injury, excepting their sudden, violent convulsions as they tumble to the floor. believed to have been recovered from the crone worlds, this arcane crystalline weapon may be a prototype for the harlequin neuro disrupter, armor is of no defense against its baleful energies

* Forceshield - Forceshields are force field generators worn by Aeldari warriors, most commonly Autarchs, though some fall into Corsair hands. The force field generator is a wrist-mounted device, setting it apart from the more clunky and restrictive armour used by other races.

* Corsair Jet Pack - Corsair Jet Packs are wargear used by Eldar Corsairs. These differ from the crude solid fuel Jump Packs used by more primitive races, instead utilizing sophisticated gravitic vanes and pulse impellers to enable the wearer to maneuver with grace and ease. Corsairs often use these jet packs to carry out surface raids and ship-to-ship boarding assaults, able to operate them psychically without conscious thought. These jetpacks, however, do not have the ability to cover large distances, unlike those worn by Swooping Hawks.
