'''Wraithblades''', or ''Klaivaulch'', are the most feared [[Eldar]] [[Wraithguard]]s, [[Wraith Construct]]s outfitted with [[Ghostsword]]s, [[Ghostaxe]]s, and [[Forceshield]]s.{{Fn|1}}

Tradition holds that these vengeful constructs are kept separate from other ghost warriors so that their immortal anger does not taint those nearby who might one day attain peace. Few Eldar will speak the true name of Wraithblades, ''Klaivaulch'', for fear of inciting the wrath of [[Khaine]]. When needed, the Wraithblades will be awakened by the most gifted [[Spiritseer]]s, their [[Spirit Stone]]s burning hot upon activation. Once kindled, the wrath that animates their [[Wraithbone]] becomes an unstoppable fury that is only quenched by enemy blood.{{Fn|1}} Whether this anger comes from within the Spirit Stones that animate the Wraithblade or the angered Spirit Stones of their weapons they carry is not fully understood.{{Fn|2}}

Differentiating themselves from their Wraithguard cousins, Wraithblades are equipped for vicious melee, wielding two great [[Ghostsword]]s, [[Ghostaxe]]s{{Fn|1}} – both weapons embedded with spirit stones containing souls so malevolent they could never be joined with the [[Infinity Circuit]] or wielded by the living.{{Fn|2}} With Ghostaxes, the Wraithblades also carry [[Forceshield]]s which deflect errant enemy fire and strikes so they focus on their target. Additional sensor vanes are attached to the helms of Wraithblades, which keep in check the most dangerous urges of the Wraithblade.{{Fn|2}}
