Avatar - Avatar of Ynnead: The Aeldari god of the dead Ynnead is a dream, the embodiment of a possibility that has yet to be fully realised. Some Asuryani Seers long believed that when the last Aeldari died during the Rhana Dandra (the Final Battle with Chaos), Ynnead would be born from the Warp with the strength of all the Asuryani souls stored in the Infinity Circuits of the craftworlds and the World Spirits of the Exodites. Ynnead would then have the power to destroy Slaanesh forever in a final battle, thus correcting the mistakes which led to the Fall of the Aeldari and allowing the race to be reincarnated into a universe free of the taint of Chaos.Or at least that is what the Asuryani believed would happen for almost ten thousand standard years. Then, in ca. 999.M41, during the Battle of Port Demesnus on the moon of Coheria, the High Farseer Eldrad Ulthran of Craftworld Ulthwé partially completed a ritual intended to awaken Ynnead using the power of the souls found in the Infinity Circuits of every craftworld in the galaxy.While the unexpected intervention of the Imperial Deathwatch interrupted the ritual before it could be completed, the god of the dead was partially awakened, and sought out a champion and prophet to complete his rise in the form of Yvraine, the Daughter of Shades. Yvraine founded a new Aeldari kindred dedicated to the Whispering God's resurrection known as the Ynnari.Ynnead's avatar, the Yncarne, was summoned into being following the sacrifice of many souls wihtin the Infinity Circuit of the craftworld of Biel-Tan during the Battle of Biel-Tan, which was attacked by the Daemonic servants of Slaanesh under the leadership of the Herald of Slaanesh known as the Masque of Slaanesh. Yvraine successfully undertook the ritual and the newborn Yncarne was able to save Biel-Tan's remaining Infinity Circuit from The Masque. After its birth, the Yncarne fought alongside the Ynnari in their quest for the Crone Swords.The Ynnari, with members drawn from the Craftworld Aeldari, the Harlequins, and the Drukhari of Commorragh, seek the restoration of the ancient Aeldari race and the full awakening of the god of the dead by collecting the artefacts known as the Crone Swords from across the galaxy. The birth of the Yncarne represented the first step on this so-called "Seventh Path" to awaken Ynnead without first requiring the death of every Asuryani in the galaxy.The combined ritualistic use of the Crone Swords at a single focused point in realspace will allow Ynnead to fully manifest his power in the Warp, where he will combat Slaanesh, hopefully destroying the Prince of Chaos and freeing the Aeldari from the soul-devouring curse of She Who Thirsts forever. Only then will the Aeldari species, restored to the unity and name of the ancient Aeldari, seek to rebuild a new and better interstellar empire.However, while on the way to the ice moon of Klaisus in the Cadia System where they sought to ally themselves with the Imperial survivors of the Fall of Cadia, the Ynnari were assailed by the Thousand Sons Traitor Legion under the command of Ahriman. Though successful in fighting off the Heretic Astartes, the Yncarne went missing after the battle.In battle, the Yncarne wields the Crone Sword Vilith-zhar.
