==Aspect of Khaine==
The [[Eldar]] [[Aspect Warrior]]s are warriors that have progressed down the '''Path of the Warrior'''. Each aspect represents a fighting style embodied in the Eldar god of war, [[Kaela Mensha Khaine]].
==Striking Scorpion Aspect==The '''Striking Scorpions''' are one of the forms of [[Eldar]] [[Aspect Warrior]], focusing on the close combat]] aspectof battle. They epitomise a the silent death, preferring to stealthily approach the enemy. They are physically stronger than other aspects.<sup>1</sup> Their weapons and armour allow them to work very well against large numbers of weaker opponents. They are also effective against stronger opponents, but their [[Eldar]] fragility works against them here.
===Aspect Wargear=Equipment==The Sriking Striking Scorpion aspect warriors Aspect Warriors are armed with:
* A [[Scorpion Chainsword]], which adds to the striking strength of the Aspect.<sup>3</sup>
* A [[Shuriken Pistol]].
* [[Mandiblaster]]s.
* Scorpion Armour. They have better armour than most other aspects. The segmented nature of their armour resembles that of their namesake.
==Exarch==
An [[Exarch]] is the leader of an Aspect Shrine. He (or she) is one that has traveled so far down the Path of the Warrior, that he can no longer turn from that path to follow another path. This gives them great skill and dedication. ===Exarch Wargear===In addition to the wargear of the aspectStriking Scorpions Aspect, The [[Exarch]]s of the Exarch Striking Scorpion Shrine can be armed with a number of special weapons:
* The [[Biting Blade]], which adds strength to the Exarch with each hit.<sup>3</sup>
