Drukhari Mandrakes creep and crawl closer to their prey like eldritch nightmares in the shadows, appearing suddenly with hateful leers dancing across their inconstant features. Those who survive the impact of their soul-freezing baleblasts soon fall prey to the slash of their glimmersteel blades.
Mandrakes are often cannibalistic and wild, living separate from other Drukhari. A Mandrake's physique has adapted to make himself or herself camouflaged almost anywhere. They have evolved the so-called shadow-skin, which makes them nigh-invisible out of direct light. They also exist within a different reality itself and are capable of entering into reality straight out of another person's shadow. No-one knows how this dramatic change has occurred, not even their Drukhari kin.
