The Sslyth
are the favoured bodyguards of Dark Eldar Archons because, unlike the Dark
Eldar themselves, the Sslyth are 'almost' totally loyal. These hulking
serpent-bodied warrior-fiends have two sets of arms, which means they've got
plenty of guns and blades, all of them razor sharp and ready to slice and dice.
As such, they're perfect for protecting the Archon from any would-be assassins.
