[[Image:ReapersMirth.jpg|thumb|right|Warrior and rune of the {{PAGENAME}}]]
The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a [[Harlequin]] Company. This Masque takes the [[Laughing God]]'s bloody humor to an extreme, making every battlefield a gory canvas. It is not simple enough to kill their enemies - they must be made examples of in the most extravagant manner Because of their penchant for inventive cruelty, they attract a large amount of [[Death Jester]]s.{{Fn|1}}
The Masque went to great lengths to save a group of [[Exodite World]]s, when they were threatened by a splinter of [[Hive Fleet Kraken]] during the [[Second Tyrannic War]]. By utilising illusions, feints and the sacrifice of an oblivious [[Imperium]] [[Battlefleet]], the Masque was able to draw the splinter fleet away from the Exodite Worlds and into the [[Webway]]. Within that mysterious realm, the Harlequins of the Reaper's Mirth were able to destroy the splinter fleet, but payed a high price in blood for their victory.{{Fn|2}}
