While travelling aboard the ''[[Lanathrialle]]'', she forsook her loose band of Outcast allies to join the void-faring crew, as she felt the call of the void. After many years and battles as a [[Eldar Corsair|Corsair]], she earned herself the name 'Amharoc', meaning 'Pitiless One' for her viscous streak and keen sense for opportunity. She became a famed Corsair commander and brought great riches to the ''Lanathrialle''. Despite this some among her crew saw her as a pretender in life, only donning each new role superficially to be cast aside without ever truly committing. Yvraine herself admitted there was some truth to this. With every success she would quickly seek out a new challenge. When her crew finally mutinied, Lord [[Aracleo]] took control of ''Lanathrialle'', but had fewer and fewer successes without their former captain. Yvraine was exiled at [[Port Vilifact]] in [[Commorragh]].{{Fn|5a}}{{Fn|7b}}
Now forced her to flee into the [[Webway]],{{Fn|2}} she had been humbled by her crew and all her former grandeur removed. She struggled to eek out a living on the streets of the Dark City, almost becoming one of the [[Starveling]]s roaming its dark alleys. She fought with every iota of strength she had in order to join the [[Wych Cult]]s, carving out a place through ability alone. Known as the 'Daughter of Shades' in Commoragh, her foreign the gladiatrix's outsider heritage made her a deliciously controversial figure amongst the ruling classes. Her shrewd mercurial displays consisted of stately elegance that would erupt suddenly erupting into bloody whirlwinds in a moment, if roused to ire, were nothing new, and these behaviors were only encouraged in her new environment. Her penchant for decisive application of excessive violence endeared her to most, if not all, Drukhari. Again rising through the ranks, Yvraine became a [[Succubus]]. It is debated whether this was through skill alone, or due entirely to the her patronage from [[Lady Malys|Malys]], a shrewd and scheming former paramour of [[Asdrubael Vect|Supreme Overlord Asdrubael Vect]]. Regardless, this would eventually lead to a significant blow to Vect's rule being dealt.{{Fn|5a}}{{Fn|7b}}
On the [[Night of Revelations]], Yvraine's would fight in the gladiatorial matches of the [[Crucibael]]. She fought many foes before the Daughter of Shades met her fateful to a Priestess of [[Morai-Heg]], [[Corag Hai]]. 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.{{Fn|2}}
