'''{{PAGENAME}}''' are specialist [[psyker]]s that belong to the [[Eldar]] race and are seen within the ranks of the Harlequins, with their abilities focusing particularly on skills relating to confusion as well as fear. Their presence adds to the potency of any performances by their kin as they release programmed hallucinations by way of their ''creidann'' grenade launcher backpacks. During masques, a Shadowseer serves the role of a storyteller and forming scintillating phantoms that dance and duel in the air. However, when called to battle, they are able to force visions of unholy terror on their foes or even remove the presence of the Harlequins from their minds completely.{{Fn|1}}
Shadowseers are famously the only psykers permitted to open travel within [[Commorragh]], where, while distrusted upon, many of them have been found from the warcouncils of [[Archons]], [[Succubi]] and [[Haemonculi]].{{Fn|3}}
