Dark Eldar are getting some love in the form of a brand new character model we’ve been expecting. Check out the latest version of Drazhar!
Warhammer Community’s Psychic Awakening previews have been focusing on the Aeldari with the Phoenix Rising expansion. While we first saw artwork on two named characters and finally saw Jain Zar revealed, it was only a matter of time before we saw Drazhar. Take a closer look at his new model!
Before we jump in though, it looks like the Visionary of Alaitoc is talking about the Drukhari. They may be launching a new assault on their own kind to spring forth what they see as a “Rebirth”.
Psychic Awakening Latest: Drazhar Model Revealed
Poised in a ready stance atop some Aeldari ruins, Drazhar bears The Executioner’s Demiklaives in each hand. Speaking of which, to ensure he hits as hard as such a master duellist should in combat, the profile of his blades has been improved to Damage 2!

Drazhar is rocking a full necklace made of shattered spirit stones of fallen Aeldari he’s taken the lives of. While he’s still just a regular Aeldari on-foot, he’s the worst nightmare to Craftworld footsoldiers. While Drazhar isn’t new to the Aeldari race, his new profile certainly is. He’ll be able to wreck things like Elite infantry and Primaris on the table with damage 2 weapons.
If you need to crack down on one target, you’ll want to use the single blade. However, if he finds himself surrounded by some cocky Primaris Marines, he can make two additional attacks at his own Strength while still having a -2 AP punching power swing.
But he gets a lot better. If you roll a 6+ to wound against an enemy, you’ll be dishing out a whopping 4-damage flat swing. The cool thing about this is that he’s not only a character-killer. But he’ll still be relevant against tough vehicles in a pinch. He might be wounding them on a 6+ anyway but each one that goes through is 4 whole damage!
Last but not least, a new video on the Imperial Aeldari has emerged from Warhammer TV. Our Inquisitor got visited by a Shadowseer giving her a chilling vision of what’s to come.
What do you think about Drazhar’s new model? What do you think could be in store for the Aeldari? Will one faction rise after all the bloodshed? Will this be the death of Slaanesh?
