Description: Tel’Rys can increase her Fighting and Agility by +1 until the end of the next round, allowing her extra attacks and a boost of speed for one turn.
Equipment:
Cegorach's Rose - Representing the barbed gift given in jest by the Laughing God to the crone Morai-Heg, Cegorach's Rose contains thorned monofilaments of shadowsilk. Existing in the penumbra between realspace and the labyrinth dimension, these shadowsilk strands bypass even the thickest armor as though it did not exist. Once within the body of the victim, the Rose's threads uncoil, a blossom of molecule-thin blades unfurling at the end of each. Thus, the foe is slain instantly as a thicket of bloody, bladed roses bursts forth within their chest.
Effect: Counts as Katar. +1 fighting in sneak attacks. All non-100 crits roll +1d6
Flip Belts - The Flip-Belt is a wonder of Aeldari technology, a portable anti-grav generator keyed to trigger upon the mental command of its wearer. So incredibly lightweight are flip-belts that they do nothing to hamper their wearer's natural agility. Instead, they heighten it to the point that Harlequins can leap clean over all but the most towering obstacles, springing and bounding through rubble and wreckage with supernatural ease.
Effect: +2 Agility while worn.
Holo Suit - In place of the thick armour plates used by less advanced races, all Aeldari warriors use psychically activated bodysuits. In battle, the trademark holo-suits (or dathedi -- meaning "between colours") transform the Harlequins into dazzling blurs, their outlines exploding into blizzards of light that leave the foe's aim confounded and their thoughts bewildered. The device incorporates a programmable holo-field that breaks down the wearer’s profile into a fractal lightstorm as they move; the faster they travel, the more pronounced the effect. So it is that a charging Harlequin appears as nothing more than an indistinct, prismatic storm that is nigh-on impossible to hit, allowing them to simply avoid blows that would otherwise lay them low.
Effect: +2 Fighting while worn.
Biography:
Tel’Rys was a born warrior, having served in the ranks of her Craftworld’s armada for hundreds of years until the forces of Slaanesh invaded. Her homeworld was driven to annihilation, with only a few survivors scattering across the stars. Tel’Rys was the only survivor to cross into the Webway, a extra-dimensional labyrinth in which those Eldar who reside join the ranks of Cegorach, the Laughing God, and his army known as the Harlequins.
To become a Harlequin, is to become one of the knowledge bearers of the Eldar, and as for Tel’Rys, she would become the ultimate knowledge bearer, a Solitaire. Her new life was to dance the endless dance of Slaanesh, She Who Thirsts. A role that brings about great power and honor at the ultimate cost, her soul. Knowing that should she die her soul belongs to Slaanesh, Tel’Rys trained to become the very thing she feared, a bringer of destruction.
While she has the skill of an entire squad of highly trained soldiers, Tel’Rys lives up to her new title. As a Solitaire she is well respected, but also well feared amongst her Harlequin compatriots, being that even to associate with a Solitaire outside of battle is considered a curse. Due to this, Tel’Rys travels the galaxy, searching for those requesting aide in battle, until the bittersweet reality of death catches up to her.
