The Incubi can't be that good if every new recruit has to kill one of them... I feel bad for the guy who started it all because he had to stab himself to steal his own armour.
See earlier posts. Also, Drukhari (or Dark Eldar, if you prefer) have since at least their 5th edition codex have the technology to be reanimated from mere scraps of their former bodies by the haemonculi, seemingly without limit. A severed hand was once famously all a haemonculus needed to regenerate the owner. Also, richer Drukhari like Archons can afford to clone themselves. I don't know how well it pays to be an Incubus, but I wouldn't rule out the possibility that they could save up for a clone or two.

It might be a stretch but... What if he is actually a crone sword. his name translates to living sword and the crone swords have been known to take on different shapes what if this one just happened to take on the shape of a full set of war gear
Possibly. Either that or his armour has some kind of identification marker that others can read (like how Space Marines can tell which battle-brother is in what armour but the signals emitted by their armour)

Stoic there are ranks of Bloodthirstiers, I assure you you would need several custodes to fight Ka’Bandha or Skarbrand. Plus eldar might be frail, but they are skilled like almost no human, and we are talking of a probable ex Phoenix Lord, which is almost Primarch level.
@@NueThunderKing By that logic, any eldar that trains long enough can reach the same level of power output as beings who are literally gods among men. Making the entire set of species within 40k redundant except for the Eldar.
The requirement to slay an incubus to become an incubus is kinda nonsensical...how'd they ever recover regular combat losses then, if their recruitment process doesn't enable them to grow their number as one must die for one to be recruited? I guess they only need to defeat another one, not necessarily kill. Which is quite a bummer to the victor, i guess ;-)
Agreed. I'm sure there's some form of contingency in place should their numbers drop below a certain number. Perhaps they recover the armour of the fallen from the battlefield before simply bestowing it to those who have more than proven their skills, or have them go out and try to kill a Wych or they simply have the Haemonculi covens resurrect them, or something like that.
Would that requirement just make any new Incubi near impossible. Each full Incubi is basically the equivalant to a Exarch, so each new one has to be better than that. They then grow and improve over the course of centuries or even millennium. So losing to a new recruit should be near impossible unless they weaken or are tag-teamed. The first is not usually much of a problem for the Eldar, and the second goes against the principles the Incubi seem to follow, amoung each other at least.
Drukhari (or Dark Eldar, if you prefer) have since at least their 5th edition codex have the technology to be reanimated from mere scraps of their former bodies by the haemonculi, seemingly without a limit to the number of times they can undergo this process.

I'd hazard a guess that any dents to their numbers are made up by trials. So you'd maybe have a group of say 6 drukhari who meet the standards then have them fight to the death. Whoever survives begins the training a proper and gets the suit.
Hardly any drukhari special characters live up to their fluff on the tabletop in 8th. I've seen Lelith get leveled before by a basic terminator captain in one on one matches, 4 out of 5 times. Drazhar is the same. Underwhelming. The only thing that makes Urien worth taking is his aura ability for all prophets of flesh to increase their stats and give em a 4+ invuln save. To bad we don't have Vect anymore.
@@ashtongreen5494 If they made tabletop rules to match the lore then a Militarum player would need 2 hours to field all his troops while an Astartes player would drop 3 tactical squads, some terminators and a tech marine with a few gun turrets and call it a day.
Always liked the theory that Drazhar was mentored by Anhra, thus making him a Dark Eldar version of Karandras. Also pity the current Incubi don't look like the old ones. The old pre-5th ED ones that were closer to Striking Scorpions.
The Murderous assault ability of Drazar is also Very simular to the strikig scorpion exarchs sustained attack ability. Both works like dakka, dakka, dakka for close combat. May be by acident or maybe GW is trying to tell us something with their rules...
There is another possible answer. This individual could actually be a sword. There are a number of swords almost worshipped as holy by these people. Not all of them are actually swords. So one of their Gods could have made a sword that is in the form of a person.
If he's a sword in the form of a person, isn't he just a person? Did the gods create a person and just go "it's not a person it's a sword, but it's also a person. But really it's a sword"?
Maybe the reason drazhar never speaks is because he is mute either by birth or that he was wounded in battle and lost the ability to make his mind known. Another possibility is that he took a vow of silence and swore never to speak since actions speak louder then words.
Its hilarious how many people give so few credit to eldar despite formally being one of the most powerful races... i might remind you that custodes might be awesome fighters... but there are way greater warriors in other faction and you should dig their lore before makimg claims
QUESTION: Is the period in the Flesh Tearers chapter history when they first settled upon their now home world of Cretacia known as "The Cretaceous Period"? :P
Well, the Craftworld codex says that the Phoenix Lord armour contains a soul stone incorporating fragments of all the prior wearers, though all dominated by the first and greatest incarnation of that armour, and that when a Phoenix Lord dies, another dons it and is subsumed spiritually (Codex: Craftworlds, P45, inset) So, if Drazhar's armour is as of that of a PL, would it just be a title being passed on, or would a new person donning it be viewed as a sacrifice to bring back the original title bearer?
@@robertnelson9599 Yes. They are well known enough to become a faction. Think the Orks, but they are more deadly. Like Predator, but gives zero F$^ks about honor.
i keep asking for new factions and plastic sisters models but for some reason GW seems to think i want anather loyalist marine unit.....why? But that would be awesome to get like a full Rak'Gol centered novel followed by a full set.
Watching this after buying Blood of The Phoenix. Need to read the Psychic Awakening bit in it, but I hope Drazhar is The Fallen Phoenix Lord! And hopefully his rules live up to his lore
Wait, so if the only way to become an incubus is to kill another incubus, then that means they have no way to replenish their own ranks if any fall in battle.
Even the Exarchs & Incubi understand the nature of damnation in the realm of She Who Thirsts. Perhaps the psycho-plastic materials use the wearer's soul as either fuel or a conduit to stabilize physical prowess and psychic awareness. All are connected to Khaine, who has exited the Warp but was not corrupted by he/she/it.
I had thought for years he was Ahra returned but didn't know the timeline problems with that theory. Now I believe he's one of Ahra's new phoenix lords.
Yeah that does initially appear to be a flaw in their lore. I assume they'll collect the armour of those slain on the battlefield and simply give them to the most skilled and vicious students instead of making them kill another for their armour in that case. Either that or they simply have the Haemonculi covens resurrect them, but I'm just spit-balling.
Not entirely sure if this has been mentioned but I believe that the exarch armour can be removed. See path of the warrior for a striking scorpion exarch armour being donned by a new host.
Could Drazhar be one of the Phoenix lords from a lost shrine? Note there are no known Phoenix lords for some shrines and we know some shrines are so small they only have a handful of them. Also could the Drazhar/Ahara be the same and he changes armor or it morphs as he changes aspects of his personality....
here's a question iv'e always had is why doesn't Lelith Hesprax fight him? my theory is because becuase they're perfectly matched, the battle would end in a stalemate, Lelith doesn't fight any battle she won't win because pride, and Drazhar doesn't care about anything.
Incubi and Imperial death cultists share a number of characteristics do they? Total loyality, an aura of mystery, brutally trained to the max in the art of killing, famous bodyguards for tier one dudes...
pheonix lords get a 2+, so kinda close? their nearest equivalant is wraithguard, though they are less 'armour' and more a big ass golem powered by a soulstone
Wraith guard would probably be the closest analogue. But it's not the eldar way to have slow bulky armour. Even their heaviest armour (dark reapers) is agile.
At the end of blood of the Phoenix Jain Zar kills Drazhar and when an Incubi puts on his armor the books says “it was the last thing Dara’kinia Thremense ever did” so I think that kind of proves it. Edit: Blood of the Phoenix came out after this vid so that’s why Remleiz didn’t mention it.
I'd say Drazhar would be the fallen Phoenix Lord, I assume as such because if the fallen Phoenix Lord had to flee, he may have went to the real of Khorne to escape, and since the Incubi are kind of like Khornate warriors. He probably has the warrior spirit of a khornate warrior, making him a very skilled killer.
If Drazhar never speaks, how does anyone know what his name is? That aside there is one other possibility you didn't touch on which surprised me. What if Drazhar is the Fallen Phoenix Lord having come through the warp from the future? It would explain his unmatched skill in combat, if he had hundreds or even thousands of years to further hone his prowess.
Considering that none of the Aeldari sects/sub-species tend to not utilise warp travel (due to attracting the attentions of daemonic entities) I find that possibility to be highly unlikely, personally.
Based on the requirements for initiates to first kill an incubus then kill an aspect warrior, this profession can only diminish over time. For a race that has existed for millenia, this is quite a stupid way of maintaining a force of elite warriors. Sounds cool of course and very grim dark but also grim dumb. Side note: if only tabletop incubi could be anywhere near their lore description...
Димитър христов Fulgrim clone, Guilliman, perhaps Kaldor Draigo. Any daemon primarch or Kharn the Betrayer, Ka’Bandha or even Skarbrand. So yeah pretty much demi gods or gods themselves.
Well, not that this is an answer as such but if you read Andy Chambers 'Path of the Incubus', the titular incubus survives a duel against Drazhar. The incubus loses the duel but is spared a death sentence, much to everyone's shock; the implication being that he is still worthy of his place within the shrine, despite having broken his oath by killing his former master (who was demonically possessed). Presumably, this means that Drazhar will eventually fight all Incubi or at least those that return to the shrine?
Maybe he is not a fallen, he foresaw some things in the future... or ONE CERTAIN DICK told him and he left the light side. Having another opinion is not a crime/heresy (haha, I hear comissar's steps).
I have never understood the recruitment idea, of having to kill one of those that you wish to join, to prove that you are worthy. How did the group even start up, if that is the requirement? And, at best, it is a group doomed to die out, because, if one die in battle, that is a permanent loss for the group. It is just an odd idea, an to me at least, lazy writing.
He defeated three custodes in single combat? Really can't believe that, a fragile Eldar versus three hulking, fully armored, geneticly fused and enhanced with the DNA of the emperor himself, masters of combat, end up getting defeated by that scrawny contraption with sawdust as his organs.. Sounds like Eldar propaganda to me..
Having to kill an Incubus to become an Incubus seems... stupid? Why would you require a new combatant to kill an older, experienced combatant? No matter who wins, it's a net loss.
What do you get when you combine a Haemonculi and a certain Primarch of the White Scars? Answer: Drazhar! After getting board from 4,000 years of torturing and experimenting what better suffering could a artist of flesh and misery get from the wild riding, poet conquer than to turn him into the silent guardian of Commorragh?
I know killing three custodes at all let alone in single combat is impressive but didn't lileath do the exact same thing after a full night at the arena and with no armour. And she ain't a phoenix lord.
So if he doesn't speak then how exactly did the other Incubi come to the conclusion that Drazhar is his name? Also, love your videos, but for the love of the God Emperor please tone down that voice acting. Ahriman sounded like he was speaking through a 12 foot length of PVC.
@@nalrashido indeed, he is tied to slaanesh. Hence why he is still alive in the 41st millennium 😉 TBH I don't know the current lore as I gave up on most of the hobby a few years back. But its for sure the older olre from the second dark eldar codex back in the horrendous Gary morley sculpt days 😂

Considering that none of the Aeldari sects/sub-species tend to not utilise warp travel (due to attracting the attentions of daemonic entities) I find that possibility to be highly unlikely, personally.
Based on the requirements for initiates to first kill an incubus then kill an aspect warrior, this profession can only diminish over time. For a race that has existed for millenia, this is quite a stupid way of maintaining a force of elite warriors. Sounds cool of course and very grim dark but also grim dumb. Side note: if only tabletop incubi could be anywhere near their lore description...
Agree, but this happens all the time. If eldar ir sm would be as powerfull as the lore tells, they would win almost every game.
Well it is possible that the Haemonculi covens could simply resurrect those Incubi slain during the recruitment process, since they have that ability.
@@40KTheories that would be even crazier! Love that solution
If the warrior finds love in something, we will know then too.
How do the Incubi replenish their numbers when one of them falls in combat?
Haemonculi covens can resurrect dead Drukhari
But who could possibly trade blows with Drazhar and live?
Lucius?
Димитър христов Fulgrim clone, Guilliman, perhaps Kaldor Draigo. Any daemon primarch or Kharn the Betrayer, Ka’Bandha or even Skarbrand.
So yeah pretty much demi gods or gods themselves.
Lelith Hesperax Would be a great match against him.
karandras, assuming the whole ahra=drazhar thing is true
Well, not that this is an answer as such but if you read Andy Chambers 'Path of the Incubus', the titular incubus survives a duel against Drazhar. The incubus loses the duel but is spared a death sentence, much to everyone's shock; the implication being that he is still worthy of his place within the shrine, despite having broken his oath by killing his former master (who was demonically possessed).
Presumably, this means that Drazhar will eventually fight all Incubi or at least those that return to the shrine?
He is Alpharius
The incubi fear the mandrakes & the harlequin death jesters .
Okay, he killed the Custodes in single combat? Phew, that is crazy.
Well, for the longest time, they're we're basically janitors, so not as impressive as M30 or 8th edition custodes.
Unknown Anonymous that doesn’t mean they were idle
@@timtim6373 You're right ...
You can't be idle if you're to busy with talent shows and rubbing promethium on one another.
Unknown Anonymous maybe a bit of “training” to keep there bodies in peek physical condition all for the glory of the emperor of course
@@timtim6373 like the blood games they take part in
So, the Dread Pirate Drazhar?
Callidus v Incubus? Who wins.
Question: Have you ever heard or read Warhammer 50K and/ or Warhammer 60K: The Age of Dusk?
I only got into it a couple weeks back, and it’s insanely good although it starts off very grimdark.
I haven't, sorry
I found it on 1d4chan if you do wish to check it out.
Thank you
No problem!
Maybe he is not a fallen, he foresaw some things in the future... or ONE CERTAIN DICK told him and he left the light side. Having another opinion is not a crime/heresy (haha, I hear comissar's steps).
Drucharii aka we took Druchi from fantasy and added a Latin suffix to make it sound more 40K
I have never understood the recruitment idea, of having to kill one of those that you wish to join, to prove that you are worthy. How did the group even start up, if that is the requirement? And, at best, it is a group doomed to die out, because, if one die in battle, that is a permanent loss for the group.
It is just an odd idea, an to me at least, lazy writing.
He defeated three custodes in single combat? Really can't believe that, a fragile Eldar versus three hulking, fully armored, geneticly fused and enhanced with the DNA of the emperor himself, masters of combat, end up getting defeated by that scrawny contraption with sawdust as his organs.. Sounds like Eldar propaganda to me..
Drazhar vs lucius?
Its hard since we dont know if he would feel pride in murdering Lucius
Having to kill an Incubus to become an Incubus seems... stupid?
Why would you require a new combatant to kill an older, experienced combatant? No matter who wins, it's a net loss.
Now your first mistake here is expecting the Dark Eldar to be sensible.
Living sword you say? Maybe Yvraine would like a chat....
I think drazhar is that ynnari dude.whats his face.
What do you get when you combine a Haemonculi and a certain Primarch of the White Scars? Answer: Drazhar! After getting board from 4,000 years of torturing and experimenting what better suffering could a artist of flesh and misery get from the wild riding, poet conquer than to turn him into the silent guardian of Commorragh?
Drahzar Vs Slay Marbo ?
The galaxy ends
Cool,hmm interesting.
It's the emperor
lol
The music sounds like its from shadows of the horned rat
Funny you should mention that... ;)
@@40KTheories fair enough lol
Good ear though :)
Mercenaries who loved to get paid so much they are 100% loyal. Honored bound, disciplined, and only prizing their own martial prowess. What?
soulstone in a construct?
I know killing three custodes at all let alone in single combat is impressive but didn't lileath do the exact same thing after a full night at the arena and with no armour. And she ain't a phoenix lord.
You got a source on leilith killing custodes ? Didnt find shit online
how is possible to an unargumented space elf to kill a custodian, let alone 3? he is almost as much bullshit as lilith
Maybe he's not even Eldari...
There's the implication that there's no one in the armour. That the Eldar inside the armour turned to dust a long time ago
@@nalrashido yeah it's just someone's guess like all of it. The reality is that it could just be a demon or other warp entity
So if he doesn't speak then how exactly did the other Incubi come to the conclusion that Drazhar is his name?
Also, love your videos, but for the love of the God Emperor please tone down that voice acting. Ahriman sounded like he was speaking through a 12 foot length of PVC.
Does....Does commoraugh have a bank???
I am sure it does, though we are all likely better off not knowing what counts as "currency" there.
@@GhostBear3067 i literally just got this shivers thinking too far into it
@@MrGrim yeah I would strongly advise against doing that...
What if Athra is Vect?
Nope vect was the slave slaughtered in the final ritual that birthed slaanesh.
@@NiskRanThawll actually Vect survived that.
@@nalrashido indeed, he is tied to slaanesh.
Hence why he is still alive in the 41st millennium 😉
TBH I don't know the current lore as I gave up on most of the hobby a few years back. But its for sure the older olre from the second dark eldar codex back in the horrendous Gary morley sculpt days 😂
Thousand Sons?
It’s eldrad.
No. He's Alpharius.
What if he is the khan!!!!
Secretly a dark avatar of the Emperor?
What an edgelord
Or he could be alpharius
Daniel McDonald but ....I am Alpharius
