[[Image:Ur-Ghul.jpg|right|thumb|Ur-Ghul]]
'''Ur-Ghuls''' are a [[Xenos]] species that are native to the labyrinth ziggurats of the [[Dark Eldar]] city of [[Shaa-dom]]. Their nature means that they are one of the many atavistic beings that can be recruited by an [[Archon]] for his court. These creatures are noted for being the most hideous of all the creatures that a Dark Eldar Archon can summon. Being sightless, yet quite agile, their tracking abilities are quite renowned and once a prey has been caught by the beast's quivering scent-pits, it is known that nothing is able to escape these whip-thin horrors.
Ur-Ghul migrations are periodically purged by the [[Deathwatch]], most notably one led by the [[Dreadnought]] [[Xenomortis]] on [[Plenitia]].{{Fn|2}}
