Oghanothir
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Oghanothir, the White Wyrm, is a legendary creature from Eldar Mythology.[1]
It is said this colossal creature had such bulk that it eclipsed the sun whenever it rose up to strike. Legend tells that Kaela Mensha Khaine, the Bloody-Handed God, hunted the great beast across the stars, eventually finding its nest in the heart of a hollow moon. Just as the beast emerged from its lair, Khaine hurled bloody blades fashioned from the gore that dripped from his left hand tearing the beast's eyes from their sockets, ensuring ensured that Khaine was able to slay the beast. The Crimson Hunters Aspect Warriors seek to emulate these blades in battle.[1]
