The Reborn pledged to Yvraine's banner come from all walks of Aeldari life. They display their adopted allegiance by painting all or portions of their attire with the prominent rich reds, purples, and blacks reminiscent of the ancient aeldari ghost halls and memorial gardens of the ancient [[Eldar Empire]]. Some adopt baroque armour pieces that are reminiscent of ancient days. They adorn themselves with the crosspiece-and-crucible Rune of Ynnead, the Sign of the Phoenix, or a combination of their prior allegiance's icon meshed with one used by the Ynnari. Others may wish to keep their adopted allegiance a close secret, for one reason or another. These Reborn are utterly devoted to the cult and see only one path forward for the Aeldari race - the utter dedication to the deathly creed of the Ynnari.{{Fn|19b}}

Those who are more recent converts or wish to still pay homage to their former beliefs and ideals, may instead sport a red band of cloth to display one's support of the Ynnari cause. These red bands are typically wrapped around one's upper arm or thigh. This was once an ancient aeldari practice grieving practice, displaying that someone may wish to be left alone in order to mourn the loss of a friend or family member. The Ynnari have since repurposed this ancient cultural practice to show one's dedication to the death cult.{{Fn|19c}}
===Runes===
[[Image:YnnariSymbol2YnnariSymbol3.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Craftworlder rune for the Ynnari symbol with stylised spirit stone.{{Fn|72d}}]]Runes displaying Ynnari allegiance are often coloured in white or black atop the deep red of the Reborn. The Sign of the Phoenix is a complex Ynnari rune and seen on various forces, rallying under the pursuit of the rebirth of their ancient days. The Ynnari's Rune rune of Ynnead, God of Death, is partially derived from that of [[Biel-Tan]]. The Ynnari symbol is often worn with a stylised oval at its apex inside the crucible, symbolising the spirit stone taken within. [[Drukhari]] might seek to ingratiate themselves to their more traditional crafterworlder allies by using the asuryani rune for the Ynnari.{{Fn|2d}}
