Baharroth (translated as Cry of the Wind)[2] is an Eldar Phoenix Lord and is said to have been the finest student of Phoenix Lord Asurmen. He was the "winged phoenix" and taught the Swooping Hawk Aspect.[2]
He is also the brother of Maugan Ra, like the sun is to the moon, and many of the Eldar's foes have been killed on the edge of their blades.[3]
History
The creator of the Aspect Shrine of Swooping Hawks, he is the youngest Phoenix Lord who fought side by side with Maugan-Ra in their early days after the Fall under the tutelage of Asurmen.[4] He was the first of the Phoenlix Lords to master aerial combat.[8] Known to move with both elegance and the force of a hurricane, Baharroth epitomizes speed and grace.[2] According to the Asuryata, Baharroth's final death will come at the dawning of the Rhana Dandra.[8]
He has, like all other Phoenix Lords, has died and been reincarnated several times, and it is said he will meet his fate at the Rhana Dandra, the final battle against Chaos.[3] He wields the Shining Blade, a weapon forged by the daughters of Vaul in the dying flames of a supernova[4] as well as the Lasblaster Fury of the Tempest.[6]
Baharroth later appeared under the command of Jain Zar, now pledged to Ynnead. Baharroth took part in the battle to defend the Ynnari against the Thousand Sons and Tzeentch Daemons in the Webway, vanishing during the struggle.[5]
