In their chosen Warrior Shrine, they learn from their [[Exarch]] instructors to form and control their '''War-Mask''', which allows them to contain and release their fury at will and can only be unleashed in battle against a foe.{{Fn|3a}} Outside of battle, Aspect Warriors lift their war-mask and are free to continue their regular lives on the Craftworld outside of training or battle summons. When the Aspect Warrior feels they have mastered their emotions and no longer need their war-masks, they will leave the Path of the Warrior and begin a new Path. Those who prove unable to ever lift their war-mask are Exarchs and do not ever leave their warrior shrine outside of battle, nor do they ever leave the Path of the Warrior.{{Fn|3b}}
Each Warrior Aspect represents a facet of the Eldar war god, [[Kaela Mensha Khaine]], and thus embodies a specific aspect of Eldar warfare, and each shrine's founder becomes it's its [[Phoenix Lord]].{{Fn|4b}} It is impossible to say how many different Aspects there are,{{Fn|4b}} and with each generation new Aspects gain favor favour while others fall to disuse.{{Fn|3}} The most common Aspects have shrines on most [[Craftworld]]s, while some Aspects are unique to a particular Craftworld - such as the weirdly terrifying [[Slicing Orbs of Zandros]], which are confined to a single shrine on a single craftworld.{{Fn|2}} The firstborn Aspects created by the [[Asurya]], [[Asurmen]]'s first students are said to remain eternal – these include the [[Howling Banshee]]s, [[Fire Dragon]]s, [[Dark Reaper]]s, [[Swooping Hawk]]s, and [[Striking Scorpion]]s and Asurmen's own [[Dire Avenger]]s.{{fnFn|3}}
