Warlocks are powerful Eldar psykers who combine their psychic abilities with military experience, usually leading Guardian squads.

Overview

The Old Ones fostered a great degree of psychic power within the Eldar. Having many millennia to evolve further, almost all Eldar now have some sort of psychic capabilities.

Warlocks follow the "Path of the Seer", the longest and most treacherous of all paths. Most Seers do not develop their powers in any militant way, and their abilities are restricted to peaceful and artistic purposes. Warlocks however, are Seers who have already had experience as Aspect Warriors. Because of their experience as warriors and seers, they are able to develop more combative psychic powers, as well as lead Guardian squads in battle, who benefit both from the Warlock's tactical military experiences and his guidance as a Seer.

Besides leading Guardians, Warlocks sometimes form the bodyguard of a Farseer. Farseers are Seers who have lost themselves upon the Path of the Seer and will continue upon it until their death.

Spiritseers are Warlocks who have specialized themselves in handling Wraithguards and Wraithlords.
