In the case of the Aeldari civilization, that meant falling to hedonism and excess. Sounds like a pretty sweet setup, but this is the grimdark far future where there is only war, so obviously everything had to go terribly wrong. These psychically gifted elves achieved a post-scarcity society and enjoyed easy access to technology so sophisticated that it’s basically magic. Who are the Drukhari? They’re a specific culture of Aeldari, a species that once had a dominant galaxy-spanning empire. I’m talking, of course, about the Drukhari, also known as the Dark Eldar, or the most evil space elves who have ever existed. These aliens just aren’t happy unless they can fit a few war crimes in between breakfast and lunch. The Imperium is made up of a coalition of absolutely terrible sub-factions, including murderous nuns who torch their foes, indoctrinated child soldiers transformed into transhuman combat marines, and flesh-hating tech priests who make brain-computers by lobotomizing criminals.īut there’s one group of guys in the setting who are so comically evil, so ridiculously rude, that I can’t help but love them above all else. Take the Imperium of Man, which largely serves as the point-of-view faction in 40K books and games. Part of the fun of Warhammer 40,000 is that no one is really the “good guy” in the setting.
