[[Image:Karandras by Sam Wood.jpeg|thumb|135px|right|Karandras The Shadow Hunter]]'''Karandras''' (translated as the translation ''The Shadow Hunter'') is the [[Eldar]] [[Phoenix Lord]] of the [[Striking Scorpions]] [[Aspect Warriors|Aspect]]. Karandras is the most shadowy and mysterious of the Phoenix Lords, as no one knows where his shrine originally lay, but though it is likely that it was on thought to be one of the small smaller [[Craftworlds]] that survived [[The Fall]] but were destroyed soon after. Karandras is also not the first [[Exarch ]] of the [[Striking Scorpions]] for , as that honour belongs to [[Arhra]] , the Father of Scorpions. However Arhar fell to darkness and betrayed the other Phoenix Lords, leading [[daemon]]s in an attack on the [[Asurmen|Shrine of Asur]]. Arhra would flee into the [[Webway]] and never be heard from again, becoming forever known as "the Fallen Phoenix that burns with the light of [[Chaos]]". Karandras, the greatest pupil of Arhra, took his master's place and tempered his murderous nature with the patience of a hunter, using his new teachings to found Aspect Shrines on many Craftworlds.{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|2}}{{Fn|3}}{{Fn|4a}}
Karandras took is the Murderous Nature of his predecessor and tempered it with the patience of the master hunter. He is ultimate stealth warrior, able to lie in wait for draw the very shadows around himself and kill his prey for days on end before finally striking with claw and ripping his opponents apart blade before they are even were ever aware of his presence. Karandras' sting is by far He carries the most potent of any [[Scorpion 's Claw]] and his fighting prowess is matched only by his fellow [[Phoenix LordsScorpion Chainsword]]. Few have set eyes upon Karandras and lived to tell the tale.<sup>1-p56</sup> Karandras was last spotted on the planet of Zandros in 928.M41 where he duelled for seventeen days , along with [[Plasma Grenades]], but perhaps his most potent weapon is his predecessor [[ArhraMandiblaster]], known as the outcome Scorpion's Bite.{{Fn|3}} The Mandiblasters of other Scorpions are as pinpricks compared to the duel is unknown.<sup>2-p128</sup> ===Scorpions Scorpion's Bite===The Scorpions bite ,{{Fn|1}} which is a so powerful it can shatter the [[MandiblasterPower Armour#Space Marine Power Armour|armour]] many times more powerful than that used by the other of a [[Striking ScorpionsSpace Marine]], it often is enough to kill a foe on its own without Karandras having to finish them and hurl him offhis feet.<sup>1-p56</sup>{{Fn|4b}}
As with the other Phoenix Lords Karandras has no permanent home and wanders across the galaxy. He was last spotted on [[Zandros]] in 928.[[M41]] where he dueled for seventeen days with Arhra, the outcome of which is unknown.{{Fn|5}}
