Bio:
Wielded by the noted Eldar Corsair Antariel Relhahdhar during his imprisonment as a slave by his Dark Eldar kin, in the Shadowspine Pits of the Cult of the Withered Blade, the swords were taken from Relhadhar’s dead body by a fellow slave human named Gunn. Gunn and Relhadhar were both working with a group of captured Inquisition agents in a plot to start a slave uprising and escape the Pits, and the Dark Eldar city the Nexus of Shadows. While Gunn, and most of the agents were successful in their escape, they owe a much of that success to Relhadhar, who assisted in fighting their Dark Eldar foes, but eventually met his death at the hands of Haemonculus Drecarus.
