'''Asurmen''' is said to have been the first [[Eldar]] [[Phoenix Lord]]. He was the founder of the [[Path of the Warrior]] and he created the first shrine of [[Asur]], the [[Dire Avenger]] shrine, which was to grow into the most wide-spread of the [[Aspect]]s. Asurmen's name means ''"The Hand of [[Asuryan]]"'' and it was he who led the Eldar race away from their doomed homeworlds at the time of the [[Fall of the Eldar]].{{citethisCite Marker End}}
