Something is going on in 40k’s Psychic Awakening plot. Check out what two new Eldar character models may be on the way in GW’s latest teaser!
Warhammer Community dropped a teaser preview of what’s on the way with Psychic Awakening. With the focus remaining on the Aeldari factions, it looks like two characters were spotted locked in a duel.
Drazhar & Jain Zar Spotted in a Duel?
In it, we can see some Howling Banshees battling a force of Incubi – Asuryani and Drukhari locked in mortal combat, just as they have been so many times since the Fall of their galaxy-spanning empire. Yet who are the mighty champions duelling at the centre of the illustration?
It’s no secret that GW is trying to keep down! They’ve just showed what looks to be Drazhar, the only fallen Phoenix Lord and Jain Zar with her iconic poofy hair and fan blade locked in combat.
Jain Zar’s weapon, Triskele and her spares (m.41 colorized)
All jokes aside, what does this mean for the Aeldari in Psychic Awakening? It seems that no matter the great threats that they face, they’re still stuck in-fighting with each other.
We’ve already shown you the Exarch and Klaivex from the upcoming Howling Banshees and Incubi kits, so make sure you check back with us again on Monday, when we’ll be revealing the first of the duellists!
Seems that we’ll know what the first of these new models look like soon…
Models We’ve Seen
Dark Eldar Incubi
Howling Banshee
Howling Banshee alternate Ynnari-themed build
In hindsight, after the models we’ve seen back to back, it would be totally justifiable to bring back the named characters that fit these warrior classes. So what kind of bad blood do you think Jain Zar and Drazhar are fighting about this time? With the galaxy in its darkest times, don’t you think they would band together in some form at the very least?
