El'uriaq
El'Uriaq also known as the Tyrant of Shaa-Dom, was one of the most powerful Dark Eldar Archon's in history.1
Overview
Ruling over the Webway realm of Shaa-dom, El'Uriaq declared himself Emperor of the Dark Eldar and challenged the might of Asdrubael Vect, supreme overlord of Commorragh. The legends told that El'Uriaq laughed at Vect's threats and posturing at this act. His forces outnumbered Vect's and few other Kabals would commit themselves to fight on behalf of the Kabal of the Black Heart while many sent secret emissaries to Shaa-dom. As El'Uriaq planned his conquest of Commorragh, Vect struck in an unexpected fashion. Capturing a human starship in Realspace, Vect hurled the vessel through a Webway Portal and directly into Shaa-dom itself. The burning vessel smashed into the satellite realm, incinerating the core of the city instantly. Moreover the ships Warp Drives exploded, creating a Warp rift that spread Daemons throughout Shaa-dom. Devastated and overrun by Daemons, Vect ordered that Shaa-dom be sealed from Commorragh forever. It is said that a portion of El'Uriaq's spirit still lingers in the ruined realm.1
