Ulthwé was caught in the gravitational pull of the [[Eye of Terror]] when it formed during the birth of [[Slaanesh]] and now orbits it, perilously close to ultimate absorption and under regular attack from the denizens of the Eye of Terror. Being so near the Eye, the Craftworld has fought long and bitterly against Chaos forces. Areas within the Craftworld lie in ruins from battles fought within Ulthwé itself between Eldar and Chaos raiders.{{Fn|2}} The location of Ulthwé is the reason given by Ulthwé for maintaining such a large number of Warlocks, while others believe it more due to be their location causing exaggerated psychic powers in the Ulthwé population that causes the emergence of more Warlocks. Whatever the reason, many Warlocks and other psychic warriors follow the Ulthwé armies to battle and their skills are even more advanced than other Craftworlds, being able to see further ahead in time and with greater precision.{{cite this}}
Ulthwe Forces under [[Eldrad Ulthran]] attempted to stem the tides of [[Chaos]] shortly before the [[13th Black Crusade]] by launching an ambitious plan at the [[Battle of Port Demesnus]] in order to resurrect [[Ynnead]].{{Fn|}} The plan failed, and during the Crusade itself Ulthwe aided [[Imperial]] forces against the forces of [[Abaddon]].{{Fn|18}} Shortly after the formation of the [[Great Rift]], Ulthwe itself [[Battle of Ulthwe|came under assault by Daemons]].{{Fn|2020a}}
Though victorious over the Daemons, Ulthwe was left reeling after the attack and now is in the midst of civil strife. Three factions have emerged dominant on the Craftworld. The first and largest of these are the [[Seer Council]], which continues to dispatch forces to stem the tides of Chaos along the Great Rift. The second group known as '''[[The Exiles]]''' is led by [[Eldrad Ulthran]] and is heavily involved with the growing cult of [[Ynnead]]. The third and final group are the Ulthwe Eldar who have joined the [[Ynnari]].{{Fn|21a}}
