[[Warlock Titan]]s, not to be confused with living [[Warlock]]s, are [[Phantom Titan]]s whose first souls were powerful [[Psyker]]s in life. Now, in death, the immense titan – the pinacle of [[Eldar]] [[Bonesinger|Psychic Engineering]] – serves as a conduit for the dead spirits to amplify their psychic potential through its [[Wraithbone]] structure, fighting with the insight of possible futures and the ebb and flow of fate.{{Fn|8}}

The Shadow Stalker Titan is a modified Phantom Titan captured and necromantically twisted by the [[Dark Eldar]] into an "undead" version of itself to fight in their raids. They are cloaked in [[Shadow Field]]s, rather than a [[Holo-Field]], and covered in a myriad of razor-sharp blades which drip with the viscera of their victims. They are outfitted with [[Dark Lance]]s, [[Titan close combat weapon#Titan Power Glaive|Power Glaive]]s, and a unique weapon known as the [[Beam of Despair]].{{Fn|9}}
[[Warlock Battle Titan|Warlock Titan]]s captured in this way are known as [[Shadow_Stalker_Titan#Soul_Stealer|Soul Stealer]]s.
