Product Information

The diamond rune of the Soaring Spite signifies a sense of oneness, binding the Harlequins to the mythic beasts upon whom their performances are based. Who can know what horrors might have been wrought upon the galaxy without the constant vigilance of the Harlequins? M41, the Chaos Sorcerer Ahriman of the Thousand Sons Traitor Legion was able to penetrate the Webway and forcibly enter the Black Library, attempting to gain access to the arcane lore hidden within as part of his quest to better understand the very nature of Chaos itself. Sinister, mysterious and mercurial, they wage a never-ending guerrilla war against the servants of the Ruinous Powers in the name of their Laughing God.

All that is known for sure of the Weeping Dawn is that, once they have chosen a target, they do not rest until its life has been extinguished and its soul offered up to the Laughing God. For instance, the Masque of the Leaping Stars go to war heralded by the same kaleidoscopic displays that accompany their performances, while the Mourning Mist advance in ghostly silence, as ominous as the shadow of Ynnead from Aeldari legend.

In battle, Harlequin Troupes move fast and hit hard, relying on speed and skill to annihilate the enemy before they even have time to raise their guns. Acting quickly they sought aid from their brethren to save the Maiden World and serve as mediators between the Craftworld Saim-Hann and the Drukhari of Commorragh. The Dance Without End wear the Rune of Myriad Paths, symbolising both Cegorach's knowledge of the Webway and the endless nature of his war. Revealed within were writings said to have been written by Cegorach itself, telling of a final act that changed utterly the tale of the Fall.

These enigmatic warriors are often credited with supernatural powers, and many amongst both Asuryani and Drukhari society believe that the Harlequins know most, if not all, of the secret paths through the endless maze of the Webway.Yet none amongst the aristocracy of the Dark City of Commorragh are foolish enough to waylay the visiting troupes of Harlequins openly, and the Laughing God's servants seem able to predict those snares that are laid for them in secret. The Masque of the Winter Sun are painted in a complementary colour scheme of blue and orange with details picked out in black and white.
