→Background
Perhaps the most disturbing aspect of the Wracks is that they have chosen this nightmarish form voluntarily. At some stage in their lives, after centuries of living in the nightmarish [[Dark City]], some Dark Eldar go to Haemonculi and ask to be modified into a new and far more frightening form. This way those who have nothing to lose willingly give their pitiful lives into the hands of Haemonculi. This is often the only way to get out of ennui and make whole range of new, painful, experiences in their twisted life.
Eventually wracks are modified by all kind of steroids and drugs, cut up into pieces and re-assembled. Their arms usually get replaced by wicked blades, metal claws or other weapons or tools. Amongst the wracks there is a position known as '''Acothyst'''. This seems to be a position of authority amongst the wracks, perhaps equivalent to a captain or commander. These Acothysts are sometimes rewarded with unique Haemonculi weapons such as the [[Hexrifle]].
