Bio:
An Eldar Cruiser that apparently to the will of Farseer Anaris. Ancient even by the standards of the Eldar, its sails are tattered and its hull bears countless microfractures from its millenniums in space, but it is still a force to be reckoned with.
Explorator Artifex Felicis was granted sole access to the Cruiser, and reported it to be completely devoid of life. Strange Eldar statues would stalk the hallway, silent and inscrutable in their purpose. Despite the complete absence of a living crew, the ship still pilots the void with the inimitable grace of the Eldar, and shields its true purpose with equal skill.
It has been sworn to serve the Hos Dynasty, though most likely through the circuitous methods favoured by the enigmatic Eldar. It did eventually commit itself to the defense of the Hos Dynasty from the final ambush by Craftworld Kaelor, and reluctantly fired upon the attacking Eldar vessels.
