INTERVIEW·WHITE DWARF 371

A Dark Genesis

November 2010·pp. 30–37

THE SHORT VERSION

Phil Kelly explains how the new background connects the Dark Eldar’s deliberate excess to the Fall, their refuge in Commorragh and the continuing hunger that drives realspace raids. Captives and suffering sustain both individual immortality and political power, while Kabals, Wych Cults and Haemonculi support a precarious social order under Vect. Their speed and increasing power after slaughter translate those motives into battlefield character. The article also explores the Dark City’s scale, its technological wonders and the horrific regenerative bargains that allow its strongest inhabitants to cheat death.
