From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Jump to: navigation, search

Rakanis was a Warp Spider Exarch, who followed Farseer Taldeer during the Dark Crusade on the planet Kronus. As the Blood Ravens Chapter moved to assault Taldeer's stronghold on Tyrea, Craftworld Ulthwé's Seer Council chose Rakanis to become the Young King and he sacrificed himself to become the Avatar of Khaine. As the Blood Ravens moved to destroy the Webway Portals, which allowed Taldeer's forces access to her ship the Vision of Lileath, the Avatar and Eldar struck repeatedly at the Space Marines, but were unable to stop them; leaving the surviving defeated Eldar stranded on Kronus. Soon after the wounded Avatar fell in battle against one of the Blood Ravens' Librarians and its remains were later collected and sent to the Blood Ravens' Librarium to be studied.[1].
