Wracks are the twisted creations of [[Dark Eldar]] [[Haemonculi]], individuals dissected and refashioned into living instruments of torture. They act as assistants and bodyguards to their masters and are equipped with a range of cruel weapons including razor-sharp blades, needles, poisons and even more exotic and disturbing weaponry.
==Background==
The most sickest part of wracks is that they have chosen this nighmarish form voluntarily. In some point of Dark Eldar life, after centuries of living in nightmarish [[Dark City]], some Dark Eldar go to Haemonculi and ask to be modified into piece of something far more frightening than ever before. Thisway they who have nothing to lose are willingly giving their pitiful lives into hands of Haemonculi. This is also the only way to get out of ennui and make whole range of new, painful, experiences in their twisted lifes.
Eventually wracks are modified by all kind of steroids and drugs. Cut off into pieces and re-assembled. Their arms usually replaced by wicked blades and metal claws.
==Equipment==
Being as favour-bound slaves for Haemonculi wracks have little to decidde of themselves. They wield poisoned blades and sometimes carry fiered [[Liquifier gun]] manufactured by Haemonculus.
There is also known to be wrack known as ''Acothyst'' which seems to act as a captain or commander of wracks. These Acothysts are sometimes rewarded of unique Haemonculi weapons. Some of them have been seen of carrying even the [[Hexrifle]] which contains small fragment of glass-virus plagued [[Commorragh]] in 926.[[M36]].
