'''Wraithbone''' is a psycho-plastic substance used by the [[Eldar]] for many different tasks, including the construction of buildings, ships and weapons.{{Fn|1}}
==Overview==
Wraithbone is essentially solidified [[warp]] energy that is manipulated by a [[Bonesinger]] into any shape that is required.{{Fn|6}} It is stronger than any known [[plasteel]] and harder to damage than [[adamantium]],{{Fn|1}} with 8-10mm of Wraithbone being equivalent to 30-45mm of [[Imperial]] armour material,{{Fn|5}} and will naturally repair itself, though the process can be sped up by a Bonesinger.{{Fn|1}} Wraithbone itself is a thousand times stronger than steel.{{Fn|4}} Being created from the warp, Wraithbone has innate [[psychic]] abilities allowing it to be used as a communications pathway as well as structural support. It carries psychic energy much as a cable carrying current does, as well as containing psychic shields to protect the occupants from the warp.{{Fn|3}}
Wraithbone emits a sympathetic psychic signal that Eldar can lock onto and use to control the object. Generally, Eldar buildings have a flowing form and lack any harsh angles. It is also used to make Eldar Runes.{{Fn|3}}
