===Origins===
Yvraine was the closest living thing in spirit to the [[Eldar Empire|ancient Aeldari ]] who existed prior to the birth of [[Slaanesh]].{{Fn|11}} Yvraine was originally born on [[Craftworld]] [[Biel-Tan]]. She walked many paths, from that of dancer to [[Warlock]] to [[Path of the Warrior|warrior]]. She eventually became a famed [[Eldar Corsair|Corsair]] leader under the name Amharoc{{Fn|5a}} until a mutiny forced her to flee into the [[Webway]].{{Fn|2}}

Yvraine later became a gladiator in [[Commorragh]], fighting many foes before falling to a Priestess of [[Morai-Heg]] named [[Corag Hai]] in the [[Crucibael]]. However, while between life and death she was resurrected by the awakening god [[Ynnead]]. Her birth caused a great [[Dysjunction]] in the Dark City, and together with the [[Visarch]] eluded capture by [[Asdrubael Vect]]. Yvraine and the Visarch traveled to Biel-Tan, where the duo gathered together some followers of Ynnead known as the [[Ynnari]]. After [[Battle of Biel-Tan|saving Biel-Tan]] from a [[Daemonic]] invasion by sealing a [[Webway Portal]] on the [[Maiden World]] of [[Ursulia]], Yvraine informed the Seers of Biel-Tan that Ynnead could be fully awakened without sacrificing the Eldar race, a process known as the '''Seventh Path'''. However, opening this path required an Avatar of Ynnead, and during the [[Battle of Biel-tan]] Yvraine performed a ritual on the Craftworld's [[Infinity Circuit]] that gave birth to [[Yncarne]] at the cost of millions of deceased Eldar souls. However, the effort was necessary in order to prevent [[The Masque]] from destroying the whole of Biel-tan's Infinity Circuit.{{Fn|2}}
