'''Wraithlords''' (also known as '''Iron Knights''', '''Wraith-Giants''' and '''Eldar Dreadnoughts'''){{Fn|3}} are giant [[Wraith-construct]]s made of [[wraithbone]] and inhabited by the souls of dead [[Eldar]] heroes. Towering far above their still-living brethren, the Wraithlord is a force to be reckoned with. Only the most [[Exarch|capable warriors]] of the [[Craftworld]]s are encased inside them, although the exact reason why is unclear. They can be armed with a myriad of weapons, including [[close combat|melee]], short-ranged, and long-ranged, with the ability to smash most enemies in combat.
