==Overview==
'''Shadowseer''' Shadowseers 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 [[Pack Grenade Launcher|''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}}
These [[Seer]]s play the role of fate and fortune within their performances with it being said that they know the doom of all their companions - even for the [[Great Harlequin]]'s themselves. These powerful psykers are known for the potency of their psychic abilities , which are as great as those of a [[Farseer]] of the [[Craftworld]]s. Shadowseers, in terms of appearance, tend to wear masks like all Harlequins , though theirs are uniquely blank and smooth. As such, it is claimed that those who see into their faces often see a different visage reflecting back at them which can either be their own face in a future or alternate time.{{Fn|2}}
Shadowseers are famously the only psykers permitted to openly travel within [[Commorragh]], where, while distrusted, many of them have been found in the war councils of [[Archons]], [[Succubi]], and [[Haemonculi]].{{Fn|3}}
